ABSTRACT:
A removable assembly for attaching a carrying strap or similar member to a amera or other article is provided. The assembly includes a thin planar link having an opening therethrough which extends into an opening slit in the forward or coupling end of the link. The opening slit has a width which is smaller than the largest width of the opening. A cooperating stepped-locking pin positioned in the camera or other article has one dimension which is thicker than the width of the slit and smaller than the largest width of the opening and a second dimension smaller than the width of the slit. The faces of the opening slit are inclined with respect to the link surface and the locking pin has a cooperating inclined surface between the strap for permitting displacement of the pin within the article body as the link is inserted into the article in a direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the pin. The pin is biased within the article body so that the larger diameter is urged to a position passing through the opening when the link is inserted into the article. The link assembly can be removed from the article by displacing the pin within the opening in the article body to permit the link to be withdrawn from engagement with the pin.
