Cabinet catch for use in a cabinet latch assembly and a method for making the catch

摘要

A cabinet catch ( 10 ) consists of an integrally molded plastic clip ( 14 ) and bracket ( 12 ) for mounting to a portion of a cabinet structure. The clip ( 14 ) is manufactured from a first plastic material. The clip ( 14 ) is rotatable relative to the bracket ( 12 ) about an axis of rotation ( 20 ). The bracket ( 12 ) is formed from a second plastic material different from the first material. The first and second plastic materials are dissimilar to each other so they do not bond to each other. A method of manufacturing the cabinet catch ( 10 ) includes the steps of injection molding the clip ( 14 ) with a first plastic material and then injection molding the bracket ( 12 ) with a second plastic material different from the first plastic material so that the clip and the bracket ( 12 ) are integrally molded.
