ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to a lock for a splice joint used to releasably join two poles together end to end. The lock prevents the inadvertent withdrawal of the leaf spring finger from the superimposed holes of the splice joint. The lock comprises a ring rotatably positioned on one of the poles astride the leaf spring and having an inner surface comprised of a first, relatively large diameter segment which, when rotated into radial alignment with the leaf spring, permits withdrawal and a second, relatively smaller diameter segment which, when rotated into radial alignment with the leaf spring, frictionally engages and clamps the leaf spring to the pole and prevents withdrawal of the leaf spring finger.
