Connection device for mobile frame structures

A cam lock assembly comprising:

• a bracket, said bracket having a cam shaft;
• and
• a cam lock, said cam lock having a shaft engagement end having a spiral axial slot, said spiral axial slot terminating at a locking groove, said cam lock further having a central axis and a central cam groove along said central axis, said central cam groove being in communication with said locking groove defining an intersection, said central cam groove extending from said intersection and traversing a bottom end, said cam lock further having a cam follower positioned in said central cam groove proximate to said locking groove, said cam follower being disposed at least partially in said spiral axial slot and said locking groove in an uncoupled position and in a pre-coupling unlocked position and a spring positioned in said central cam groove adjacent to said cam follower and a force stop being disposed in said central cam groove proximate to said bottom end, said force stop being adjacent to said spring opposite to said cam follower, wherein said intersection defines at least one detent, and said cam follower is engaged to said at least one detent in said uncoupled position and said pre-coupling unlocked position;
• wherein said cam shaft is spatially separated from and independent with respect to said cam lock in said uncoupled position, and further wherein said cam lock is constructed and arranged for insertion of said cam shaft from a normal direction into said spiral axial slot, said normal direction being perpendicular or angularly offset relative to said cam shaft in said pre-coupling unlocked position, and further wherein said spiral axial slot is constructed and arranged for engagement to said cam shaft and said cam lock is rotated in an eccentric first direction relative to said cam shaft moving said cam shaft into said locking groove, and depressing said cam follower against said spring in a releasable and coupled locked position separating said cam follower from said at least one detent.
