  • Patent number: 5284366
    Abstract: A unique quick-connect receiver is disclosed for connecting an adapter to the receiver. A lock pin within the receiver is moved eccentrically to force the adapter further into the receiver, and lock the adapter. The adapter and receiver have mating Z-shaped surfaces which are forced to ride along each other as the adapter is moved to be locked within the receiver. The combination results in a high strength connection that may be quickly connected and disconnected.
