The assembly of two parts, one of which is fixed and the other of which is removable, includes automatic locking and unlocking elements for securing the removable part to the fixed part. The unlocking elements are mounted on the removable part and are integrated inside it. The removable part has a male end adapted to be received in a complementary female end of the fixed part, snap-fastening against a resilient stop latch inside said female end. The male end is secured to a longitudinal spindle extending inside the removable part and terminated by a handle for manual actuation, thus enabling the male end to be turned in order to unlock the assembly of the two parts. The male end is returned automatically to its locking position by a return spring.

1. An assembly of two parts, one of which is fixed and the other of which is removable, the assembly being of the type including automatic locking and unlocking means for securing the removable part to the fixed part, said unlocking means being mounted on the removable part and being integrated inside it, and in which the removable part has a male end adapted to be received in a complementary female end of the fixed part, the male end snap-fastening against a stop latch inside said female end, said latch being urged resiliently by a spring into a position in which it locks the male end in the female end, which male end has a cone mounted at the end of the removable part in such a manner that, while the cone is being inserted into the female end, the latch can slide over the cone, thereby compressing its return spring, wherein the cone presents a flat, wherein the male end has a segment placed behind the cone and presenting a recess for receiving the latch, said recess opening in register with the cone, and wherein the cone is movable relative to the segment between a locking position in which the flat is out of alignment with the recess, thereby holding the latch captive in the recess, and an unlocking position in which the flat is in alignment with the recess, thereby allowing the latch to be released.2. An assembly according to claim 1, wherein the latch is urged by said spring in a direction that extends transversely to the direction in which the male end is inserted, the latch being received inside a duct arranged in the wall of said female end.3. An assembly according to claim 1, wherein the cone is secured to the end of a spindle placed in the removable part and capable of turning about its own longitudinal axis.4. An assembly according to claim 3, wherein the spindle is fitted with a handle projecting laterally into a window of the removable part so as to be capable of being actuated manually to enable the cone to be unlocked from the latch of the fixed part, said unlocking being performed by turning the spindle about its longitudinal axis by means of the handle.5. An assembly according to claim 1, having resilient return means for returning the cone into its locking position.6. An assembly according to claim 1, wherein the removable part is a longitudinally-extending member having the male end projecting from one end thereof.7. An assembly according to claim 6, forming part of a surgical table, in which the longitudinally-extending member supports a removable plate for supporting the legs of a patient, each side of the plate being carried by such a longitudinally-extending member, the two longitudinally-extending members being associated with two respective female fixed parts of the table.8. A surgical table fitted with an assembly according to claim 1.
