Abstract
A locking carabiner comprises a body, a gate, and a lock. The body has a side interconnecting a top and a bottom forming an opening. The gate is pivotally connected to the bottom and is releasably connectable to the top, and the gate has closed and open positions. The lock is pivotally connected to the side and has locked and unlocked positions. The lock includes a trigger portion extending outward proximate the body's rear and a locking portion extending outward proximate the body's front. The locking portion prevents the gate from moving from the closed position into the open position when in the locked position, and the locking portion is configured and arranged to allow the gate to move from the closed position into the open position when in the unlocked position.
