ABSTRACT:
Improved heavy duty locking means are disclosed for locking together a pair of movable components such as the tilt cab and chassis components of a motor vehicle, characterized by the provision of movable locking pin means for releasably connecting the blade and housing members secured to adjacent surfaces of the components, respectively. In one embodiment, the locking pin is connected with the housing member for axial displacement between locked and released positions relative to a locking aperture contained in one end of the blade member. In another embodiment, the locking pin is connected for lateral displacement relative to a locking slot contained in a lateral surface of the blade member. The locking pin may be actuated by piston and cylinder motor means or by a manually-operable linearly-displaceable actuator. In various embodiments of the apparatus, the motor means and the locking pin are arranged on the same and on opposite sides of the blade and housing members, respectively. In each of the embodiments, the locking pin is spring-biased toward the locked position relative to the locking opening contained in the blade member.
