Problems solved by technology

Another downside: Over time the spring or elasticity of the plastic latch degrades, so the latch experiences little or no tension, causing rattle and BSR
Also, it can be difficult to replace a damaged latch that is already installed

Abstract

The invention provides a magnetic latch, a vehicle container and a system. A magnetic latch for a lid and a bin of a container in a vehicle includes at least one overmolded magnet removably connected to the lid. The metal portion is magnetically attracted by the overmolded magnet. At least one over-molded magnet is connected to the box having a magnetic attraction with the cover over-molded magnet to magnetically open and close the cover and the box of the container. An overmold on the magnet encapsulates the magnet with a vibration damping material, such as rubber. The metal portion may be a second at least one overmolded magnet. The container can be a central control board, a glove box, an ashtray, a luggage box, a skylight sunshade curtain and a cover. A lance, clip, fork, or other suitable fastener may be formed on one side of the overmold to allow insertion and attachment to a corresponding hole in the cover.
