ABSTRACT:
A snap latch, particularly for bags, ladies handbags, or other traveling articles, characterized in that it comprises a base member (1) designed to be fixed on one of the portions (P1) to be closed of the bag and having pivoted thereto in book-like fashion a body member (3) which can be oscillated through 180.degree. and which, when abutted against the base member, protrudes therefrom with a portion (103) whose face opposite the bag is provided with a seat (8) which is partly closed by the upper edge (401) of the base member and which at the opposite part is closed by an hook-like eyelid-shaped member (303) integral with the body member, a protruding button (7) being secured on the other portion (P2) to be closed of the bag, so that when the portions of the bag are in the closed position, the button is disposed with its rounded head partly on the upper edge (401) of the base member and when the swingable body member (3) is abutted against the base member, the head snaps into the seat (8) of the body member and is grasped by the hook-like member (303) of the seat, the distance between the rounded edge (6) of the hook-like member and the adjacent upper edge (401) of the base member being smaller than the diameter (D) of the button head, whereby the latter will be firmly retained within the seat (8), unless the swingable body member (3) is intentionally rotated away from the button and respective supporting base member.
