More Information
Summary:A container has a base with a lid that is rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration. The lid may be secured to the base with a latch assembly. A latch assembly may have a locked position and an unlocked position, where the latch assembly includes: a latch body pivotally connected to the lid, a latch button slidably connected with the latch body, the latch button having a latch button-locking member, a latch-locking arm pivotally connected to the latch body, and a latch-locking arm biasing member that exerts a rotational force on the latch-locking arm. When the latch assembly is moved to the locked position, the latch-locking arm may engage the base and rotate against the rotational force from the latch-locking arm causing the latch button to move against the linear force until the latch button-locking member engages the arm-locking member. L'invention concerne un contenant comportant une base dotée d'un couvercle qui peut pivoter autour d'une charnière d'une configuration fermée à une configuration ouverte. Le couvercle peut être fixé à la base au moyen d'un ensemble verrou. Un ensemble verrou peut avoir une position verrouillée et une position déverrouillée, l'ensemble verrou comprenant : un corps de verrou relié pivotant au couvercle, un bouton de verrou relié coulissant au corps de verrou, le bouton de verrou comportant un élément de verrouillage de bouton de verrou, un bras de verrouillage de verrou relié pivotant au corps de verrou, et un élément de sollicitation de bras de verrouillage de verrou qui exerce une force de rotation sur le bras de verrouillage de verrou. Lorsque l'ensemble verrou est déplacé vers la position verrouillée, le bras de verrouillage de verrou peut venir en prise avec la base et pivoter contre la force de rotation du bras de verrouillage de verrou, amenant le bouton de verrou à se déplacer contre la force linéaire jusqu'à ce que l'élément de verrouillage de bouton de verrou vienne en prise avec l'élément de verrouillage de bras.
