Quick detach connector

A connector for an imaging device comprising:

• (a) a mounting plate defining an upper surface and a lower surface;
• (b) a threaded member engaged with said mounting plate and a threaded portion at a terminal portion of said threaded member suitable for detachable engagement with said imaging device;
• (c) said mounting plate defining a pair of inclined edges on opposing sides of said mounting plate suitable to be detachably engaged with a clamp;
• (d) said mounting plate defines an opening permitting the threaded member to shift in an axial direction within, said threaded member defining a first section with a diameter greater than a length or width of said opening, said threaded member defining a second section with a diameter less than said length or width of said opening, said threaded member defining a third section with a diameter greater than said length or width of said opening, where said threaded member is engaged in a manner to said shift in said axial direction within said opening while being maintained within said opening by said first portion and said third portion being on opposing sides of said opening, wherein said length is greater than said width;
• (e) said connector defines a cavity therein, wherein said cavity defines a circular first portion defining a first diameter, wherein said cavity defines a circular second portion defining a second diameter where said second portion is further distant from said upper surface than said first portion and said second diameter is greater than said first diameter, wherein said cavity defines a circular third portion defining a third diameter where said third portion is further distant from said upper surface than said second portion and said second diameter is greater than said third diameter.
