A locking structure for a spring-loaded, pushbutton pin coupler, the invention prevents inadvertent or accidental depression of a "button latch" pin which can result in an uncoupled joint. The present locking structure cooperates with a pushbutton pin connector such as is commonly used on collapsible or extendible arms or legs. According to the invention, a conventional button latch pin is provided with a locking plate at its inner end, rotation of the pin after coupling of joint with the pin causes the locking plate to also rotate into engagement with a fixed pin element carried by the structure coupled by the pin, thereby preventing displacement of the pin from the locked position.
