Abstract
A hoist ring assembly for mounting on a load member includes a bolt having a circumferential recess, a support member having a bolt passage for receiving the bolt, and a pin passage transverse to and intersecting the bolt passage. A load bearing ring has legs aligned with the pin passage, and one or two pins are inserted into the pin passage so as to interengage with the recess to hold the bolt and support member against separation and to support the load ring for pivotal movement relative movement relative to the support member and for pivotal movement with the support member relative to the bolt. In one arrangement the pin passage is offset from the bolt passage and a single pin extends through the support member and engages in the recess of the bolt. In another arrangement, the pin passage opens into the recess on diametrically opposite sides thereof, and a pair of pins have inner ends received in the recess.
