Abstract:
A cargo tie-down includes an adapter with threaded bore formed therethrough, and a stepped outer circumference forming a second portion. A locking collar with threaded bore formed therethrough has a first and second cavity, where the first cavity rotatably mates with the second portion of the adapter. A disk has a bore formed therethrough, a cavity with a bottom wall, and an outer diameter mating with the second cavity of the locking collar. A spring positioned in the second cavity of the locking collar contacts the bottom wall of the disk. A T-shaped threaded stud has an outwardly extending flange formed on a first end. The stud passes through the disk and is threaded into both the locking collar and the adapter. An attachment member threaded into the bore of the adapter contacts a second end of the stud to cause the adapter and the stud to move in unison.
