Locking pin for a T-rail mount for a portable light and movable, lockable handles for the same

摘要

A locking pin for a mount for receiving a T-rail includes a bolt for engagement with the mount, a plurality of facets defined on the bolt, and a locking leaf spring having a first end fixed to the mount and a second distal end with a planar lip. A movable and lockable handle for a portable light includes a hand grip, a pair of arms and a pair of hinges. A locking flange in the hinge securely captures the arm in a folded configuration. The arm is moved out from behind the locking flange and rotated to a fully deployed configuration and held by a detent flange. The handle is attached to the mount provided with the locking pin.

1. A locking pin for a mount for receiving a T-rail comprising:
a bolt for disposition into and engagement with the mount for capturing the T-rail in the mount; a plurality of facets defined on the bolt; and a locking leaf spring having a first end fixed to the mount and a second distal end with a planar lip, where the bolt contacts the lip and depresses the leaf spring as the bolt is advanced into the mount until the lip and one of the plurality of facets have sufficient clearance between the facet and lip to allow the leaf spring to clear the bolt, the leaf spring then being released so that the lip and facet are juxtaposed parallel to each other and in an interference fit preventing further rotation of the bolt and hence preventing the bolt from being removed from the mount.
