ABSTRACT:
For a Corvette rear-seat storage compartment, a spring connected between the compartment frame and a latch on the cover and arranged when the cover is in its closed position to develop an opening force urging the cover in a direction away from the closed position. The opening force of the spring, after the latch is disengaged from the keeper on the frame and after the force depressing the latch push button is removed, causing the cover and latch to rotate upwardly away from the closed position at a rate great enough to prevent the latch from re-engaging with the keeper and at a distance sufficient so that the cover can be grasped by the fingers and moved to a fully open position.
