The bin housing includes a forward bulkhead panel, aft bulkhead panel and an aft housing panel that includes a rigid valence panel having one of a latch striker or a latch assembly secured thereto. The rigid valence panel has opposite ends that are secured to the forward and aft bulkhead panels. The bin includes an aft wall, a forward wall, a bin bottom and the other of a latch striker or a latch assembly secured to the bin bottom, thereby defining a latching location. A downward load in the bin is distributed from the latching location, along the rigid valence panel and to the aft and forward bulkhead panels. |
