ABSTRACT:
A latching device (5) including a housing (7) with a latching member (15) connected through track followers (16,17) to a track (10,11,12,13,14) in the housing (7). A lever (6) pivotally connected to the housing (7) has a track follower (20) engaged in a track (21) in the latching member (15). A lug (18) on the latching member (15) is disposed adjacent an opening in the housing (7) dimensioned to receive a latch lug (4). Pivotal movement of lever (6) causes movement of follower (2) in the track (21) with resultant planar movement of the latching member (15) as the track followers (16,17) traverse the track (10,11,12,13,14) the shape of which also produces movement of the lug (18) between extended and retracted positions relative to said housing opening.
