Abstract
In the legs of a clevis of a webbing connector are opposite aligned passages in which is journalled a pin for harness webbing. The pin is formed of a release body the hub of which fits between the legs. Parts of a pair of lock pins project the hub into the respective passages to hold the pin in place. The lock pins are fixed in the body by shear pins. Inside of the hub are a pair of plungers. A slot in each plunger riding on a set screw limits the outward movement of each plunger respectively to the adjacent end of the hub, whereby the adjacent lock pin is pushed totally into the leg passage and the release body is freed. The force for outward movement of the plungers is imparted through a thruster which includes a suitable expandable device which when expanded axially pushes the plungers apart for pushing the lock pins out of the hub of the release body.
