<p>A latch (10) includes a base (12), a drive shaft (100) and cam (102), and a handle (110) attached pivotally to the drive shaft (100). The handle (110) is moveable between a closed position, a pop-up position, and an open position. A slide plate (24) is attached slidably to the base (12) and engaged with the cam (102). A swivel arm (52) is attached pivotally to the base (12) and the slide plate (24). A bolt assembly (66) is attached to the swivel arm (52), and a plunger (32) is mounted within the base (12). In its closed position, the handle (110) engages the plunger (32) to engage a switch (36) and the bolt assembly (66) engages a structure. In the handle's (110) pop-up position, the plunger (32) moves to a retracted position and disengages the switch (36). When the handle (1 10) is moved to the open position, the drive shaft (100) and cam (102) are rotated so that the slide plate (24) slides and the swivel arm (52) pivots to swing the bolt assembly (66) away from the structure.</p> |
