Abstract

A toggle latch device translates a first push and release of a button to a locking pin translation from retracted to extended from within a housing. A second push and release of the button reverses the locking pin translation from extended to retracted back within the housing. The latch button remains desirably flush with the housing after each push and release. The translation of the latch button and that of the locking pin is angularly displaced by 90 degrees, allowing the toggle latch device to employ a unique lever system which includes a buckling spring combined with a reversing hat which forces the locking pin in each of extension and retraction.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a toggle latch mechanism. Background technique [0002] Conventional door locks may include handles, rotary latches, or knobs to lock conventional doors. These external knobs can cause extra weight, be dangerous to passers-by and prone to failure. [0003] Rotary knobs with handles for latching doors are available for many traditional applications. Handles or recesses in the front surface of doors used for food service can lead to undesired accumulation of food in the recess, which is a health hazard. [0004] Locking devices incorporated within the door housing can be cost prohibitive requiring structural modifications to the housing to which the door is attached. [0005] Accordingly, there remains a need for a system and associated method that can overcome these limitations and provide a novel solution for simple locking devices that operate via a single actuation of a button. Contents of the invention [0006]...
