ABSTRACT:
A thrusting rail-joint assembly for joining and rapidly separating two host structures is disclosed. Each of the two host structures may include a fairing structure, and is connected to a latching member, which may include a rail segment. An outer latching member, having a first joining end and a first latching end, is secured to the first host structure at the first joining end. The outer latching member includes a number of latching arms at the first latching end. The latching arms extend from the outer latching member in a direction from the first joining end to the first latching end. An inner latching member has a second joining end and a second latching end. The inner latching member is secured to the second host structure at the second joining end, and has a number of recesses at the second latching end. The recesses are adapted to receive the latching arms when the outer latching member is latched onto the inner latching member. Latching of the outer latching member onto the inner latching member secures the first host structure to the second host structure.
