A latch system employs momentum exchange impact damping. A latch is slicleably arranged within a housing so that the latch can slide between a latch position and a release position. A damper spring urges a damper against a wedge of the latch. When a mechanical impact urges said latch toward the release position, the latch wedge impacts the damper so as to exchange momentum from the latch to the damper so that the latch remains in the latch position. |
