Summary:A travel lock system for use on retractable awnings incorporating a support arm and a rafter arm wherein the rafter arm is adapted to be moved into a channel provided in the support arm when the awning is retracted, includes a lock arm adapted, in a locking position, to extend across the channel in the support arm to retain the rafter arm therein and further includes a cam surface so that movement of the rafter arm into the channel when the travel lock is in its locking position will not damage the travel lock but will pivot the travel lock out of its locking position to permit the rafter arm to be moved into the support arm.
