Abstract:
1. An interface mechanism comprising: a body portion having an exterior, an interior cavity, a top wall, a side wall, and an anchor aperture formed through the side wall communicating between the exterior and the interior cavity; an extension with a distal end, the extension extending from the top wall of the body portion and having a traveler aperture communicating between the distal end and the interior cavity; a first anchor selectively moving through a range of motion through the anchor aperture with respect to the body portion, the range of motion of the first anchor comprising one or more extended positions of the first anchor wherein the first anchor extends from the body portion through the anchor aperture; and a traveler positioned within the traveler aperture, the traveler selectively moving through a range of motion with respect to the extension, the range of motion of the traveler containing one or more blocking positions wherein the traveler confines the first anchor to the one or more extended positions, the anchor being free to retract within the anchor aperture when the traveler is in a non-blocking position; wherein the extension is configured to receive a lock selectively engaged to the extension and securing the traveler to the one or more blocking positions by preventing substantial movement of the traveler.
