Abstract
An automotive glove box latch incorporates a two point drop pawl structure where the pawls operate in unison (in parallel) in response to the operation of an activation button or paddle, positioned away (disparate) from the pawls and at the side of the glove box. The pawls are mounted within a housing which extends across the glove box door to which the latch housing is mounted. A spring biased lock-plate operates within the housing and is connected to the activation button for movement in response thereto. A pair of step-up gears is positioned within the housing. Each is driven by the lock plate to thereby impart movement to a respective one of the pawls through an engagement with rack teeth carried on each pawl. The lock-plate implements this function with a pair of rack teeth tracks carried thereon, one rack tooth track for engaging a respective one of the step-up gears.
