<p>A radial latching mechanism (30) for engaging a safety switch (15) is described. The radial latching mechanism includes an actuator holder (36), and an actuator (32) for engaging the safety switch, attached to the actuator holder in a predetermined orientation relative to the holder. The mechanism has a body (34) for supporting the actuator holder, and a first radial member (40) extending between and pivotally connected by respective pivot points (40A, 40B) to both the body and the actuator holder. The radial latching mechanism further includes a second radial member (42) extending between and pivotally connected by respective pivot points (42A, 42B) to both the body and the actuator holder. Each pivot point has a pivot axis, all of the pivot axes being substantially parallel.</p> |
