Outrigger arm with lateral coupling bolt - linked with hinged anchor lever with hook profile

摘要

An outrigger arm (1) whose free end is provided with a lateral coupling bolt (3), can be linked with a hinged anchor lever (4), which has a hook profile (5) at its free end. When the coupling bolt (3) slides along the underside of the hook, a sliding lock plate (9) is displaced along the anchor lever to allow the bolt (3) to engage the hook. To disengage the hook, the coupling bolt and the arm are moved further towards the lock plate so that the taper profile (10) on the lock plate is forced upwards, thus disengaging the hook from the coupling bolt. ADVANTAGE - Improved anchor lever for outrigger arm provides maintenance free, reliable operation.
