ABSTRACT:
A latch mechanism having a latch member defining a slide portion received in a track channel. The slide portion is slidably guided by the track for movement between a latching position and a retracted position. A helical spring is provided for biasing the latch member to the latching position and a force transfer member is disposed between the end of the spring and the latch member slide portion in the channel for preventing catching of the spring end between the latch member and the track member in the channel.
