ABSTRACT A connector apparatus for releasably securing two separate force transmitting assemblies in a force transfer relationship is disclosed. A first connec- tor assembly having a tubular member forming a cen- tral opening having a locking recess formed therein is anchored at a desired location. A second connector assembly having a primary and a secondary housing operably connects with the first connector assembly for transferring the static forces therebetween. The primary housing mounts an expandable locking ring which fits in the recess of the first connector as- sembly for effecting the mechanical securing. The locking ring may be released by two separate modes of operation. When released, all operating parts of the connector except the first connector assembly may be retrieved to a convenient location for inspection or repair. Should the locking ring fail to release by either mode, the secondary housing may in the alter- native be released from the primary housing.
