DESCRIPTION OF A PREFERRED EMBODIMENT
Referring now to Figure 1, where there is illustrated a latch assembly 1 comprising a latching mechanism housed in a latch housing comprised of front 2 and back 4 latch housing portions, which join along matching edges. There is an arc shaped indent 6 formed into the front latch housing portion 2. In this indent there is located a latch actuator 10 that is movable by pivoting this between the distal ends of the arc shaped indent 6. The latch actuator 10 is a lever shaped to encircle the fingers of a user's hand. In other words, the actuator defines an elongate opening 12 into which the fingers of a users hand can be inserted.
The actuator 10 drives the retraction of a pair of (although one may suffice) latching elements 20 relative to the latch housing. These latching elements are steel pins or bolts 20 in this embodiment.
With reference to Figures 6 through 8, it can be seen that the latching mechanism comprises a guide track 30 which is mounted to the housing 2, and a carriage 40 for the latching pins 20 which runs in the guide track 30.
There is a spring 50 mounted so as to extend between the guide track 30 and the carriage 40 and bias the carriage 40 and locking pins 20 together into an extended position with respect to. the housing 2.
From the actuator 10 there extends a pair of arms 10a and 10b. A first of these arms is a pivot arm 10a which pivots about a pivotable mounting point 30a on the guide track 30, and about which pivot point the actuator 10 pivots.
The second of these arms is a carriage arm 10b that extends to the carriage 40 and locates via a slotted opening 11 on a carriage pin 41 carried by the carriage 40.
In use, the actuator 10 pivots about its pivotable mounting point 30a on the guide track 30 between an upper distal end of the arc shaped indent 6, and a lower distal end of the arc shaped indent 6.
When the actuator 10 is pivoted against the bias of the spring 50 from the lower distal end to the upper distal end of the arc shaped indent 6, the actuator 10 is in line with the locking pins 20 and the carriage arm 10b draws the carriage 40 and the locking pins 20 into a retracted position with respect to the housing 2.
When the actuator 10 is allowed to travel with the bias of the spring 50 to the lower distal end of the arc shaped indent 6 the actuator 10 is at an angle of approximately 45 degrees with respect the locking pins 20 and the carriage arm 10b permits the carriage 40 and the locking pins 20 to extend with respect to the housing 2.
In use, the latch assembly 1 may be mounted into an uppermost corner of a wall assembly 100 of an IBC. In the embodiment illustrated, the wall assembly 100 comprises a perimeter framework 102 with a wire mesh infill 104.
A further wall element or IBC frame member will incorporate on or more aligned apertures for receiving the locking pins 20.
The wall assembly 100 equipped with the latch assembly 1 can be released by swinging the actuator 10 against the bias of the spring 50 from the lower distal end of the arc shaped indent 6 to the upper distal end, thereby retracting the locking pins 20.
To latch the wall assembly 100 equipped with the latch assembly 1, the actuator 10 is allowed to return to the lower distal end of the arc shaped indent 6, thereby extending the locking pins 20.
A tab 70 extends from a lower edge of the encircling portion of the actuator 10. A tab receiving recess 80 is formed into the front latch housing portion 2 at the lower end of the arc shaped indent 6. The floor 82 of this tab receiving recess 80 is brightly coloured, such as with day-glow orange or the like (see Figure 2). When the actuator 10 reaches the lower end of the arc shaped indent 6 then the tab 70 will completely conceal the brightly coloured floor 82 of the tab receiving recess 80 (see Figure 1). Where the brightly coloured floor 82 of the tab receiving recess 80 is visible, this then is an easily discernable indication that the locking pins 20 are either not engaged or only partially engaged.
An advantage of the above described latching mechanism is that it provides mechanical advantage to the actuator 10, reducing the hand strength required by the user to over-power the spring 50. A further advantage is that the latching mechanism is fully housed, and the user's hand guarded, thereby eliminating pinch points etc.
If the locking pins 20 should jam in the receiving aperture(s) for these, then a portion of a tool can be inserted into an arcuate slot 110 in the front housing portion 2 to directly influence the carriage 40.
Throughout the specification and the claims that follow, unless the context requires otherwise, the words "comprise" and "include" and variations such as "comprising" and "including" will be understood to imply the inclusion of a stated integer or group of integers, but not the exclusion of any other integer or group of integers.
The reference to any prior art in this specification is not, and should not be taken as, an
acknowledgement of any form of suggestion that such prior art forms part of the common general knowledge.
It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the invention is not restricted in its use to the particular application described. Neither is the present invention restricted in its preferred embodiment
with regard to the particular elements and/or features described or depicted herein. It will be appreciated that various modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the invention. Therefore, the invention should be understood to include all such modifications in its scope.
