Abstract

See full text

A scaffold has latch assemblies that are configured to hold a deck of the scaffold against a side rail of the scaffold. The latch assemblies include a shaft that is configured to extend through slots in the side rail. A locking tab at the end of the shaft presses against the deck due to action of a spring that urges the shaft downward relative to the side rail. The deck advantageously has an edge recess that receives the locking tab. The edge recess may be sized so that lock tab is flush with or below the top surface of the deck. A collar is slidably disposed on the shaft and is interposed between the bias element and the locking tab and is configured to help prevent the bias element from becoming entangled in the slot. The disclosure also relates to related latch assemblies, side rail assemblies, and methods.
