Abstract
An uplock for the selective retention of a capture pin of a movable element includes a hook, a locking member, and a detector. The hook is movable between a release position and a retaining position for retaining the capture pin. The locking member moves between a locked position, and an unlocked position. The detector detects whether the hook is in the retaining position and the capture pin is in the hook. The detector includes a sensor movable relative to a target. The target or the sensor is carried by the locking member and the other by an indicator lever which is movable between a first position indicating absence of the capture pin in the hook and a second position indicating presence. The target and the sensor are only in the proximate position if the locking member is in the locked position and the indicator lever is in the second position.
