Abstract: The present invention provides an improved locking mechanism for securely connecting modular or detachable components. The locking mechanism includes a male and female portion associated with, respectively, a first and second modular component, the male portion having a slit defining a first and second finger, the locking mechanism having a spreading means provided by a pressure bolt mechanism including a pressure bolt, wherein the pressure bolt is configured to, when turned by up to substantially 1 revolution, move the first and second fingers from a closed position wherein the first and second fingers are substantially parallel to one another, to a spread position wherein the first and second fingers abut an interior surface of the female portion, thereby connecting the first and second modular component.
