  • Locking Foot
    Publication number: 20160252207
    Abstract: A locking foldable foot includes a mounting plate, a first member, and a second member. The proximal end of the first member is attached to the mounting plate at a pivot. The second member is coupled to the first member and is structured to move parallel to the first member. The proximal end of the second member is structured to be capable of engaging the mounting plate to prevent rotation of the first and second members about the pivot. A test and measurement instrument includes the locking foldable foot. A method of preventing unintentional closure of a foldable foot on a test and measurement instrument includes locking the foldable foot in an open position in response to the weight of the test and measurement instrument being applied to the foldable foot.
