Abstract
A mechanical joint that resists any direction of imposed force and can be connected in set rotational increments is comprised of three elements: a plug attached to the male-side of the joint, and a receptacle and a tabbed ring attached to the female-side side of the joint. The male-side and female-side are connected by sliding the plug into the receptacle and rotating the tabbed ring a partial turn. Reversing the connecting steps separates the joint.
