ABSTRACT:
A snap lock will hold in assembled relationship two tubular parts one within the other in telescopic relationship. The locking mechanism has a rectangular base with rectilinear outer ends and a button urged by a spring perpendicularly away from the base. The base will slide within tracks along the inner walls of the male tubular part and the button will project through an aperture in the wall of the male part which is complementary to the shape of the button. The female tubular member has an aperture in its walls which is also complementary to the shape of the button such that the button will project into the aperture in the female member when one aperture is aligned over the other.
