Abstract: A rear driveline disconnect apparatus for use with four-wheel drive vehicles that is configured to allow the driver to easily, quickly and reliably change the vehicle between a four-wheel drive mode of operation and a front two-wheel drive mode of operation. The apparatus comprises a housing having an adapter at one end that mounts to the vehicle transfer case and an output flange at the opposite end that connects to the rear driveline assembly. The shaft from the transfer case is received in the housing and engaged by an output gear disposed therein. A coupling mechanism selectively couples and uncouples the output gear with an output shaft that extends rearward to connect to the output flange and the vehicle's rear drive shaft. When coupled, rotational torque is delivered to the rear driveline assembly to power the rear wheels. When uncoupled, only the front driveline assembly and front wheels receives power.

Abstract: A locking mechanism for securing such enclosures as vending machines is disclosed. A hasp is mounted on the interior of the enclosure and a mounting bracket having a flange and a lock hole is disposed on the exterior of the enclosure. To securely lock the enclosure, a hasp key is passed through an opening in the enclosure proximate the mounting bracket. One end of the hasp key includes an engagement mechanism that engages a hasp key aperture through the hasp. On the other end of the hasp key is a lock hole which is generally aligned with the lock hole on the exterior of the enclosure when the hasp key is engaged. A lock may then be disposed through the lock holes, limiting a would-be intruder's options to gain access to the inside of the enclosure. A sliding T-handle lock cover is also described. The sliding T-handle lock cover includes a flange and slides over a T-handle lock and aligns with a flange of a cover plate.
