ABSTRACT:
A latch mechanism is mounted on a door or panel hingedly mounted on the frame of a construction vehicle or the like. The latch mechanism comprises a handle pivotally mounted in exposed relationship on an upper side of the door for movement between latched and unlatched positions thereon. A guide block is secured to an underside of the door and a latch member is slidably mounted in the guide block. The latch member is connected to the handle for sliding movements between a latched position underlying a stationary panel of the vehicle and an unlatched position whereby the door may be opened in response to raising of the handle. Detent means are provided between the guide block and the latch member to hold the member in its unlatched position when the door is open. A key lock may be mounted on the door to selectively hold the latch member plate in its latched position.
