ABSTRACT:
A locking mechanism for assembled threaded coponents, including a circumferential tongue on one of the components and a corresponding notch on the other component. As a locking position is approached, the tongue is biased out of its normal position by a camming surface adjacent to the notch, and is then released into the notch as the locking position is reached. Unlocking only requires the tongue to be moved out of the notch momentarily during rotation from the locking position.
