ABSTRACT:
A latch arrangement includes a latch bolt having a closed position and an open position. An actuator moves a driving abutment to move a detent between an engaged position retaining the latch bolt in the closed position and a release position freeing the latch bolt. A clutch member selectively couples a driving abutment with the detent. When in the latched closed position, the clutch member lies in a first position. The actuator causes the clutch member to selectively couple the driving abutment with the driven abutment to move the latch arrangement to the unlatched closed position, causing the clutch member to follow a first path. Movement of the latch arrangement to the unlatched open position causes the clutch member to follow a second path. Movement of the latch arrangement to the latched closed position causes the clutch member to follow a third path. The first path, the second path and the third path are different.
