Abstract

See full text

A manual quick-release latching system includes a first component and a second component. The first component includes a first component mating surface, a socket recessed into the first component and having an opening on the first component mating surface; and a first component retaining structure. The second component includes a second component mating surface, a second component retaining structure, and a latching mechanism. The mating surfaces are juxtaposed when the first component is slidingly engaged with the second component. The retaining structures slidingly engage one another in a first direction and interlock one another in a direction perpendicular to the first direction. The latching mechanism includes a part that can partially extend from the second component and enter the socket of the first component, to latch the first component with the second component by preventing the first component from sliding with respect to the second component in the first direction.
