A locking system with a quick-release mechanism for mounting an article or the like, the system comprising:
- (a) a mounting plate adapted for attachment to the article or the like, wherein the mounting plate includes a central cavity having a plurality of locking grooves and conical surface along the circumferential edge of the central cavity;
- (b) a main shaft having one surface with a shape adapted for mounting onto the mounting plate and having a plurality of locking projections formed circumferentially on a circular groove provided on the surface of the main shaft, and one the other surface of the main shaft being formed into a plurality of disengagement position hole, a plurality of sliding projections, and primary pin engagement hole and a circular wall surface for the contact movement with a circular wall surface of a clutch surface of the edge of pin is circular and clutch;
- (c) the clutch having a narrow tip protruded outwardly, and a circular cavity with a protruded circular wall with two oppositely arranged clamping elements, wherein a groove is formed between the two clamping elements on the circular wall, and a sliding projection is formed at a notch formed on the circular wall, and wherein a sliding surface is formed at the narrow tip of the clutch being extended outwardly, wherein at least two clamping grooves are formed between the at least two clamping elements;
- (d) a locking member having a generally circular cavity with a sliding groove for the engagement with the sliding projection of the main shaft, and a primary pin and a secondary pin formed along the circumferential edge of the cavity, and two hooks extending outwardly from the circumferential edge of the cavity, having a sliding slot and a squeezing releasing surface;
- and
- (e) a covering cap having a generally circular structure having a plurality rounded circular ridges with a series of indention for said secondary pin, wherein the center of the covering cap is for fastening the main shaft, the clutch the locking member and the coving cap as a combined unit,
- wherein the mounting plate is attached to the object or the gadget, and the main shaft is then locked onto the mounting plate, the clutch is coupled to the mounting plate, the main shaft is mounted with the covering cap and the main shaft is twisted to lock the object to the mounting plate by rotating the object or the like to an angle of 45, the object is released from being mounted.
