ABSTRACT:
This latch comprises a case (1) integral with a first part (2) of the vehicle, in which case is disposed a bolt (3), and a keeper (4) integral with a second part (5) of the vehicle and adapted to cooperate with the bolt. The first and second parts of the vehicle are relatively movable and the bolt (3) is mounted to be movable between a position for releasing the keeper and a position for locking the latter in the case (1). The bolt comprises means (6) for hooking the keeper and is mounted to be movable along a path roughly parallel to the path of displacement of the keeper (4) in the vicinity of the case (1), between a position (A) for hooking the keeper, the hooking being achieved by the user shifting the movable part of the vehicle, and the position (B) for locking the keeper, through actuating means (7) actuated in one direction by means detecting the presence of the keeper in the hooking position (A) and, in the other direction, by means detecting the actuation of the bolt unlocking means.
