BAYONET TYPE COUPLING WITH PIVOTED SEGMENT RELEASE MEANS
Abstract
A remotely actuated quick-disconnect electrical connector that comprises a pair of mating connector halves releasably retained together by an interlocking pin and groove arrangement is described. Pivotal latch means disposed in one of the connector halves adjacent the ends of the coupling grooves are normally held in an abutting relationship with the coupling pins by a slidable, lanyard actuated sleeve. The latch retains the pins in the grooves until the lanyard moves the sleeve and enables the latch to pivot out of the path of the pins for effecting disengagement of the coupling. (AEC)
