Patent ID: 11920952

Abstract:
A removeable level endcap is disclosed where the endcap safeguards the end of the level apparatus against drops and impacts. The endcap assembly includes a sliding C-clamp slidably housed inside a locking hook structure. Both locking and locking hook structures are “C” shaped with two end portions coupled to a middle portion. With the sliding C-clamp in a fully pushed backward position within the locking hook housing structure, a single linear forward push of the sliding C-clamp couples the locking hook structure end portions with the level end and locks the endcap onto the level end using locking tabs on locking hook structure end portions with the sliding C-clamp in a pushed fully forward position within the locking hook structure. Unlocking, detaching, and removing the endcap from the level apparatus is accomplished with a single linear backward pull of the sliding C-clamp within the locking hook structure.
