Abstract

See full text

A latch system for coupling a panel or access door to a structure, having a hook, a keeper, an overcenter mechanism and an actuator. When the hook engages the keeper, the keeper drives a ramp formed into the hook causing the hook to pivot. The hook, torsionally linked to the overcenter mechanism, activates the overcenter mechanism securing the hook in a closed position. When the actuator is depressed it reverses the overcenter mechanism pivoting the hook into an open position. Multiple hooks are shown associated with the latching assembly.
