Abstract
A trigger lock provides a high retention force and a low reset force to secure, release and reset a translating member to a stationary member. A retention latch has a complementary shape to engage and resist axial translation of the translating member. The retention latch pivots downward to disengage from the translating member. A spring pack compresses to resist the downward pivot to set the high retention force. A trigger lock assembly restrains the compressed spring pack to allow the translating member to return and reset the trigger lock with the low reset force. A spring-loaded latch clearance cam is configured to push the translating member away from the retention latch as the translating member disengages and returns to reset the trigger lock.
