ABSTRACT:
A bar and lock arrangement includes a bar having spaced ends, a pair of swing arms respectively extending from each end of the bar for pivotally mounting the bar on a frame, a latch at each end of the bar for releasably latching each end of the bar to the frame on which said swing arms are mounted, a cable extending between the latches for releasing the latches so that said bar can pivot around the swing arms with respect to the frame, and a handle mounted on the bar and coupled to the cable for simultaneously releasing the latches. An abutment preferably is disposed on the bar and positioned adjacent to the handle such that initial force on the handle moves the handle on said bar, releases the latches and brings the handle into engagement with the abutment, further force on the handle operating through the abutment and the bar to pivot the bar around the swing arms.
