Anti-vibration locking connector

A connector comprising:

• a connector body including an outer surface defining a longitudinal axis and gear teeth disposed on the outer surface;
• a first sleeve rotatably coupled to said connector body, said first sleeve having a sidewall, wherein the sidewall of the first sleeve is formed to define a hole therethrough;
• a moveable member positioned in the hole formed in the sidewall of the first sleeve;
• a second sleeve positioned over said first sleeve and movable with respect to the first sleeve between a locked position and an unlocked position, said second sleeve having a sidewall, wherein the sidewall of the second sleeve is formed to define a recess;
• and
• a releasable locking member at least partially positioned between the gear teeth and the moveable member, said releasable locking member having a mating surface configured to engage the gear teeth of the connector body,
• wherein in the unlocked position of the second sleeve, said recess is configured to at least partially align with said hole, and, upon rotation of said first sleeve relative to said connector body, said moveable member is configured to translate into said recess of said second sleeve to facilitate sliding of said mating surface of said releasable locking member along said gear teeth of said connector body,
• wherein in the locked position of the second sleeve, said recess is rotationally spaced from the hole, and, said mating surface of said releasable locking member is locked between said gear teeth of said connector body and said moveable member to prevent rotation of said first sleeve with respect to said connector body, and
• wherein the second sleeve is configured to be movable with respect to the first sleeve along the longitudinal axis between a first position and a second position and, while in the second position, the second sleeve is rotatable with respect to the first sleeve between the unlocked and locked positions,
• wherein the first and second sleeves include engagement members that matingly engage when the second sleeve is in the first position and that are disengaged when the second sleeve is in the second position thereby enabling the second sleeve to rotate with respect to the first sleeve between the unlocked and locked positions.
