  • Torque pin
    Patent number: 6623242
    Abstract: A torque pin includes a generally cylindrical body defining an external sidewall and having a longitudinal extending bore formed therein. The body also has a radially extending slot provided in the sidewall that intersects the bore. A cam is pivotally coupled to the body and is accommodated by the slot. The cam is moveable between an unlocking condition where the cam is fully accommodated by the slot and a locking condition where the cam is partially accommodated by the slot and extends outwardly beyond the sidewall. A retaining mechanism is disposed in the bore. The retaining mechanism acts on the cam when the cam is in the unlocking condition and moves into the slot when the cam is in the locking condition thereby to inhibit the cam from returning to the unlocking condition.
