Abstract
A door locking mechanism includes a main body, a trigger, and a slide lock. The slide lock and the main body are configured such that at least a portion of the slide lock extends outside of the main body in a locked position, with the slide lock being advanced into the main body as the slide lock transitions toward an unlocked position. A ball lock is in operative communication with the trigger and the slide lock, with the ball lock, the trigger, and the slide lock being configured such that when the trigger is in the extended position, the ball lock inhibits movement of the slide lock from the unlocked position toward the locked position. Movement of the trigger from an extended position toward a retracted position allows the ball lock to assume an unobstructed position allowing the slide lock to transition from toward the locked position.
