Abstract

See full text

A locking mechanism for securing a container to a truck chassis is provided and includes a manually reciprocating locking member movable in a piston-like fashion through a housing from a retracted position within the housing to an extended position within a slot of a corner casting in an adjacent container. The reciprocating member is also rotatable and includes an eccentric locking pin to adjust the location of the locking pin to compensate for dimensional variations and to enable the locking pin search for the locking slot of a corner casting by moving between several positions.
