    Abstract: Coupling systems that each include a pivot connector set and a locking connector set. First and second parts of each coupling system are coupled to one another by engaging components of the pivot connector set with one another and then at least one of the first and second parts is pivoted relative to the other of the first and second parts so as to engage components of the locking connector set with one another. In some embodiments, a coupling system of the present disclosure may be deployed with a pair of hot shoe connectors, with a pivoting action of the coupling system providing a straight-in type engagement of the hot shoe connectors with one another.
