ABSTRACT:
A drawbolt for luggage cases or the like comprises a base plate, an actuating lever, and a U-shaped latch member. The actuating lever is pivotally connected to the base plate for movement between a latched position and an unlatched position. A U-shaped link connects the actuating lever and the arms of the U-shaped latch member. The U-shaped link has arms formed as plates that are received in pockets at the sides of the actuating member. The actuating lever has a back cover with a cavity that receives the cross-bar of the U-shaped link, and the base plate has a recess that receives the cavity when the actuating lever is in the latched position. A lock bolt is supported on the actuating lever for movement parallel to the opposite sides of the actuating lever and enters an eccentric bolt socket on the base plate to lock the actuating lever in the latched position. Rivet holes are provided through the base plate and are covered by the actuating lever in the latched position.
