LATCH ARRANGEMENTS

摘要

Latch arrangements for mounting on a first housing section to secure the first housing section to a second housing section are provided. The arrangements are particularly well adapted for utilization with air cleaner housings. Several designs described comprise bent wire arrangements having a first handle segment formed from a single piece of bent wire, and a latch or hook segment formed from a second piece of bent wire. Preferred configurations for utilization with plastic housing sections, are provided. An alternate latch arrangement, comprising a single molded latch member, is also provided.
