ABSTRACT:
A low profile retractable lifting eye assembly with a "U" shaped lifting eye pivotally mounted in a housing having a "U" shaped depression for receiving the eye in its depressed position. A pin extends transversely through the legs of the lifting eye and through the housing. A coupling member external of the housing has its upper end received in the middle of the depression in the housing and the upper end of the coupling members has an opening receiving the center of the pin. A set screw in the coupling member engages an annular groove in the pin to prevent transverse movement of the pin relative to the remainder of the assembly.
