Patent ID: 7665335

Claim:
A swing handle assembly comprising a lockable handle member including a pivotally attached end and an end distal from the pivotally attached end comprising a substantially deformable housing and a locking means wherein the substantially deformable housing is adapted to at least partially support the locking means and wherein the locking means is located in the substantially deformable housing, and a frame coupled to the lockable handle member at the pivotally attached end and adapted to couple with the substantially deformable housing of the lockable handle member, wherein the swing handle assembly can be placed in a locked condition by pivotally swinging into cooperable alignment the lockable handle member with the frame and locking the locking means thereto and wherein the locked condition of the assembly can be maintained by the substantially deformable housing in response to destructive outside forces causing deformation thereof, which prevents the swing handle assembly from moving to an unlocked condition.
