Abstract

Latch systems having latch devices for releasably engaging anchors are disclosed herein. A latch system configured in accordance with one embodiment of the disclosure includes a latch device having an anchor aperture configured to receive a head portion of an anchor. The latch device includes a first engagement member operably coupled to an actuator. The first engagement member can restrain the head portion between the anchor aperture and a second engagement member, and the second engagement member can urge the head portion against the first engagement member. In operation, a user can move the actuator from a first position to a second actuator position to move the first engagement member away from the head portion and release the latch device from the anchor.

an actuator operably coupled to the first engagement member, wherein the actuator is biased toward the anchor aperture and against the first engagement member in the first direction; and

an anchor having a central axis and generally spherical head portion configured to be received in the anchor cavity through the anchor aperture,

wherein, when the head portion is inserted into the anchor cavity through the anchor aperture, the recessed edge portion or the first engagement member is movable in the first direction to contact the anchor and prevent removal of the head portion from the anchor cavity, and the concave surface portion of the second engagement member is movable in the second direction to contact the anchor and urge the head portion toward the anchor aperture, and wherein the latch device is pivotable about an axis perpendicular to the central axis of the anchor when the head portion is restrained in the anchor cavity by the first engagement member, and

wherein the actuator is moveable in a third direction, opposite to the first direction, from a first actuator position toward a second actuator position to move the first engagement member away from the anchor and release the latch device from the anchor.

2. The latch system of claim 1 wherein the concave surface portion of the second engagement member defines a hemisphere having a first diameter, and wherein the spherical head portion of the anchor has a second diameter that is generally equivalent to, but smaller than, the first diameter.

3. The latch system of claim 2 wherein the recessed edge portion of the first engagement member includes a semicircular portion configured to contact the head portion, and wherein the concave surface portion of the second engagement member includes a hemispherical surface configured to contact the head portion.

4. The latch system of claim 1 wherein the head portion has a ball shape.

5. The latch system of claim 1 :

wherein the anchor further includes a neck portion adjacent the head portion;

6. The latch system of claim 1 :

wherein the first engagement member includes a first tab that extends outwardly from a first side of the first engagement member and a second tab that extends outwardly from a second side of the first engagement member opposite the first side;

wherein the actuator includes a first guide structure that slidably receives the first tab and a second guide structure that slidably receives the second tab; and

wherein the first and second tabs abut against the first and second guide structures, respectively, and restrict movement of the first engagement member when the actuator is at the first actuator position.

7. The latch system of claim 1 wherein second engagement member moves parallel to an axis of the anchor, and wherein the first engagement member moves at right angle relative to the second engagement member.

8. The latch system of claim 1 :

wherein the latch device further includes—

a guide pin, and

a wall structure having one or more guide slots configured to slidably receive the guide pin;

wherein the actuator includes a first guide channel at a first side of the one or more guide slots and a second guide channel at a second side of the one or more guide slots opposite the first side, and wherein the first and second guide channels are configured to receive opposite end portions of the guide pin; and

wherein the guide pin is configured to move within the one or more guide slots and the guide channels from an unlocked position to a locked position, wherein in the locked position, the guide pin restricts movement of the first engagement member away from the anchor aperture.

9. The latch system of claim 8 wherein the guide pin is configured to move within the one or more guide slots in a first direction that is generally perpendicular to the frame, and wherein the guide pin is further configured to move within the guide channels in a second direction that is generally transverse to the first direction.

10. The latch system of claim 1 wherein the second engagement member is configured to urge the latch device away from the anchor when the first engagement member is retracted away from the anchor.

11. The latch system of claim 1 wherein the second engagement member is configured to push the anchor through the anchor aperture and to cover the anchor aperture when the first engagement member is retracted away from the anchor.

12. The latch system of claim 1 , further comprising a pull cord attached to the actuator, wherein tension applied to the pull cord by an operator moves the actuator from the first actuator position toward the second actuator position.

13. The latch system of claim 1 wherein:

the latch device further includes a housing attached to the frame;

the housing forms an enclosure that at least partially encloses the actuator and the first engagement member; and

the actuator is slidably coupled to the housing.

14. The latch system of claim 1 wherein the first engagement member is slidably coupled to the actuator, and wherein the latch device further includes:

a first biasing member carried by the first engagement member and coupled to a portion of the frame; and

a second biasing member coupled to the actuator and configured to resist a bias of the first biasing member.

15. The latch system of claim 14 wherein:

the latch device further includes a housing attached to the frame and at least partially covering the actuator;

the actuator has a first abutment feature;

the housing has a second abutment feature facing the first abutment feature; and

the second biasing member is operably disposed between the first and second abutment features.

16. A latch device, comprising:

a latch body having an anchor cavity;

a first engagement member movably disposed within the latch body, the first engagement member having a recess in a distal edge portion thereof; and

a second engagement member movably disposed within the anchor cavity, the second engagement member having a concave surface portion, wherein the first engagement member is biased toward the second engagement member,

wherein the concave surface portion of the second engagement member receives an anchor inserted into the anchor cavity through an aperture, wherein the anchor moves the second engagement member from a first anchor depth in the anchor cavity to a second anchor depth in the anchor cavity when the anchor is inserted into the anchor cavity, and wherein the second anchor depth is deeper than the first anchor depth relative to the aperture, wherein the anchor has a central axis and a spherical head portion,

wherein at the first anchor depth the distal edge portion of the first engagement member presses against the second engagement member, and

wherein at the second anchor depth—

the distal edge portion of the first engagement member presses against the anchor,

the concave surface portion of the second engagement member presses against the anchor and urges the anchor against the spherical head portion of the first engagement member, and

the first and second engagement members restrain the anchor from exiting the anchor cavity but permit rotation of the latch device about an axis perpendicular to the central axis of the anchor.

17. The latch device of claim 16 , further comprising an actuator operably coupled to the first engagement member, wherein the actuator is configured to move from a first actuator position toward a second actuator position to move the first engagement member away from the anchor and release the anchor.
