See full text

A storm cover (10) to protect an opening in a structure includes a plurality of fabric panels (13) attached to each other by connectors (20). A receiver (24) is adapted to be attached to the structure and carries one end of the cover (10). A latch mechanism (30) includes a base (31) which is adapted to be attached to the structure. The latch mechanism (30) includes a tension connector (35) which is attached to the other end of the cover (10), and a tensioning arm (42) pivotally connected to the tension connector (35). Rotation of a handle (44) on the arm (42) positions a tab (39) of the tension connector (35) in a slot (33) in the base (31) and positions a pivot surface (46) of the arm (42) in a hook (34) in the base (31) to attach the other end of the cover (10) to the structure while at the same time tensioning the fabric.
