Abstract

A pressure-sensitive locking device comprises a housing (2, 20) having an opening therein, and an insertable member (1, 21) adapted to be inserted into the opening whereupon it can enter into locking engagement with a locking member (4, 36) in the housing. The locking member (4, 36) is cooperable with pressure-sensitive means (7, 28) in the housing to effect disengagement between the locking member (4, 36) and the insertable member (1, 21) upon a reduction of pressure.
