ABSTRACT:
A locking mechanism for securing a cam arm of a coupling member in a locked position to prevent inadvertent rotation of the cam arm. The locking mechanism includes a locking member that is pivotally connected to the cam arm and is adapted to selectively interface with a portion of a coupling member. The locking mechanism is easy to clean and maintain and allows for the unlocking of a cam arm in one continuous motion.
