support 30 includes apivoting portion 32 extending from a first end thereof configured to be received in the lockingmember pivoting hole 24, and apivoting hole 34 defined in a second end thereof. Thesupport 30 also defines arecessed portion 36 in a side edge thereof. - The
holder 40 is built up by a pair offirst sidewalls 41, asecond sidewall 43 perpendicularly connecting to thefirst sidewalls 41 and anend wall 45 perpendicularly engaged with thefirst sidewalls 41 and thesecond sidewall 43. An end opposite to theend wall 45 and a side opposite to thesecond sidewall 43 are open. Therefore, a receiving room is defined in theholder 40 adapted to receive thedriving member 10, thelocking member 20 and thesupport 30. A pair of guidingslots 412 are defined in thefirst sidewalls 41 and aligned with each other. Each guidingslot 412 includes a slidingportion 4122 and apositioning portion 4124 communicating with each other. Aneck portion 4126 with a width slightly less than that of thesliding portion 4122 is formed between the slidingportion 4122 and thepositioning portion 4124. Thefirst sidewalls 41 further define a pair offixing holes 414 aligned with each other, and a pair ofdetents 416 in an end far away from theend wall 45. Thesecond sidewall 43 includes an accessinghole 434 defined therein, asnapping portion 436 protruding therefrom, and two pairs ofears 431 respectively formed on opposite ends thereof. Theend wall 45 includes aretaining portion 452 defined therein. A firstengaging portion 437 and a second engaging portion 439 (shown inFIG. 5 ) are formed in theholder 40. The firstengaging portion 437 defines anengaging hole 4372 therein. The secondengaging portion 439 defines a through hole therein (not shown). - The
cover 50 includes aclaw 52 perpendicularly extending from a first end, and a pair ofengaging teeth 54 formed on a second end. A pair of limitingportions 56 extends from the middle of thecover 50 near theclaw 52. - In the present invention, the first
resilient member 60 is a coil spring with a pair ofhooks 62 respectively extending from opposite ends thereof. - In the present invention, the second resilient 70 is a torque spring having a
first arm 72 and asecond arm 74 respectively extending from opposite ends thereof. The distal end of thefirst arm 72 is bent for engaging with therecessed portion 36 of thesupport 30. - Referring also to
FIG. 5 together with theFIGS. 2 and 3 , to assemble the latch apparatus, the first end oflocking member 20 is received between the driving member connecting panels and theposts 22 are respectively movably received in thesliding slots 164. Thepivoting portion 32 of thesupport 30 is pivotably received in thepivoting hole 24 of thelocking member 20. Thus, thedriving member 10, thelocking member 20, and thesupport 30 are connected in turn. The drivingmember connecting portion 16, thelocking 20 and thesupport 30 are received in theholder 40 to align locking theportion 28 with the accessinghole 434. Theshaft 80 is fixed in themounting holes 166 with opposite ends thereof extending out of opposite sides of thelocking member 20 and is slidably received in theguiding slots 412. The secondresilient member 70 is received in theholder 40 and engaged between thesupport 30 and afirst sidewall 41. Theshaft 90 passes through thepivoting hole 34 and the firstresilient member 70, and fixed in thefixing hole 414. Thefirst arm 72 engages with therecessed portion 36, thesecond arm 74 is inserted into theengaging hole 4372 of theengaging portion 437. The first end of thesupport 30, on which thepivoting portion 32 is formed, is biased towards theholder accessing hole 434 by the secondresilient member 70. Therefore thelocking member 20 is also biased to a position in which thelocking portion 28 extends out via the accessinghole 434. The firstresilient member 60 is engaged between the reinforcingportion 168 of the drivingmember 10 and the engagingportion 439 of theholder 40. The first resilient member hooks 62 are respectively engaged in the engaginghole 1682 and the engaging portion throughhole 439. Theclaw 52 of thecover 50 is engaged with the retainingportion 452 and the engagingteeth 54 is snapped in thedetents 416, thus, thecover 50 covers an opened side of theholder 40. At the same time, the limitingportion 56 abuts against thesupport 30 to prevent thesupport 30 from deviating and disengaging from theam 72. - Referring also to
FIG. 4 , in assembly of the latch apparatus and thefunctional module 100, theholder 40 abuts against an inner surface of thefunctional module sidewall 101. Theears 431 are retained in the receivingspaces 103. The snappingportion 436 is fixed in the locatinghole 104. Thus, theholder 40 is securely attached to thesidewall 101. At the same time, the operatingportion 12 extends out of thefunctional module 100 via the thoughhole 108. The functional module throughhole 106 is substantially aligned withholder accessing hole 434, therefore, the lockingportion 28 retractably extends out through the throughhole 106. - Referring also to
FIG. 6 , when thefunctional module 100 equipped with the latch apparatus is slid into thechassis 200, the lockingportion 28 abuts against the chassis sidewall to be urged to retract into theholder 40 via the accessinghole 434. Theposts 22 slides along the slidingslots 164 towards theoperation portion 12. Thesupport 30 is pivoted with the movement of the lockingmember 20 so that the secondresilient member 70 is compressed. Once theholder accessing hole 434 is substantially aligned with thechassis locking hole 202, the secondresilient member 70 is restored to bias thesupport 30 to pivot towards the accessinghole 434, and the lockingmember 20 is moved accordingly. As a result, the lockingportion 28 extends out though the accessing hole and retained in thechassis locking hole 202, and lockingmember posts 22 slides back to the position shown inFIG. 5 . - Referring also to
FIG. 7 , the operatingportion 12 is pushed in a direction indicated by arrow A. Theshaft 80 slides along thehold guiding slots 412 towards thepositioning portion 4124 with the movement of the drivingmember 10. When theshaft 80 is snapped into thepositioning portion 4124, the drivingmember shoulders 162 abut against the lockingmember tabs 26. As a result, the lockingmember 20 achieves a stable status because of the obstruction from the drivingmember 10. - Referring also to
FIG. 8 , to detach thefunctional module 100 from thechassis 200, theoperation portion 12 is pulled in a direction indicated by arrow B. Theshaft 80 is disengaged from the guidingslot positioning portions 4124 via the guidingslot neck portions 4126 and slides along the guidingslot sliding portions 4122. The drivingmember 10 slides in relative to the lockingmember 20 until end rims of the slidingslots 164 engage with the locking member posts 22. Then, theposts 22 slide with the drivingmember 10. The lockingmember 20 rotates about theposts 22 so that the lockingportion 28 moves into theholder 40 via the accessinghole 434 to compress the secondresilient member 70. The lockingportion 28 is now disengaged from thechassis locking hole 202, as a result, thefunctional module 100 can be pulled out of thechassis 200. Once thefunctional module 100 is detached from thechassis 200, the operatingportion 12 is released, therefore the firstresilient member 60 is restored to slide the drivingmember 10 inwards thefunctional module 100. Then, the secondresilient member 70 biases the lockingmember locking portion 28 out of theholder 40 and is ready for next attachment to thechassis 200. - It is to be understood, however, that even though numerous characteristics and advantages of the present invention have been set forth in the foregoing description, together with details of the structure and function of the invention, the disclosure is illustrative only, and changes may be made in detail, especially in matters of shape, size, and arrangement of parts within the principles of the invention to the full extent indicated by the broad general meaning of the terms in which the appended claims are expressed.
