Abstract (en)

A locking mechanism 100 comprises a plurality of locking members 22. The locking mechanism 100 is arranged to selectively retract one or more of the locking members 22 to the left of axis X. An actuation member 102 is arranged to move up and down along axis Y in response to rotation of a handle. If one or more of locking members 22 is interconnected with actuation member 102 by an interconnection means, movement of actuation member 102 upwardly along axis Y causes the retraction of the selected locking members 22 to the left of axis X. A first, or rear, surface of the actuation member 102 faces a second, or forwardly facing, surface of the locking members 22 such that the actuation member 102 and locking members 22 are arranged in a substantially overlapping configuration.
