Abstract

An aircraft interior assembly comprising a fixed element, a sliding element movable between a lockable position and a released position, and a latch mechanism. The latch mechanism comprises a locking arm, mounted on one of the fixed element and the sliding element, which is rotatable around a rotating axis between a locked position and an unlocked position. The latch mechanism further comprises an engagement plate, mounted on the other of the fixed element and the sliding element. When the sliding element is in the lockable position and the locking arm is in the locked position, the locking arm contacts the engagement plate to prevent the sliding element moving out of the lockable position. Conversely, when the sliding element is in the lockable position and the locking arm is in the unlocked position, the locking arm is not in contact with the engagement plate, and the sliding element is free to move out of the lockable position.
