ABSTRACT:
A cargo lock for aircraft cargo loading such as a pallet, designed for optional tension release, in which a detent and toggle detent are mounted for independent pivotal movement relative to a fixed mount and are connected together by a sheer pin for movement of the detent to cargo release position while the toggle detent remains in locked position. When locked, an over-center toggle device prevents releasing movement of the pivoted toggle detent, and a positive locking cam retains the toggle device in locking position. Step-by-step release is provided for a series of lock units upon incremental movement of an elongated control rod.
