Abstract: A bolt mechanism comprising a backing plate adapted to be mounted on a flat panel, a bolt assembly housing carried by the backing plate, a sliding bolt assembly carried on the bolt assembly housing one end of which can engage and latch to a striker, and a spring on the housing for keeping the end of the bolt extending out of the bolt assembly housing. An actuator housing assembly comprising a housing having an opening therein, a movable actuator member received in the opening, the actuator member having a front surface and a rear surface and being digitally movable in the opening, and a hammer extending from the rear surface of the movable actuator member. The actuator housing assembly is adapted to enable the attachment to and detachment from the bolt mechanism assembly.

Abstract: A vibration isolation fastener insert comprising: a rigid cylindrical hub having an externally extending flange and a through longitudinal opening to receive a fastener. An elastomeric bushing around the hub has a slot therein receiving the external flange. An upper housing is disposed around the side of the bushing and has a flange over the top of the bushing. A lower housing is disposed around the external side of the upper housing and has a flange extending below a lower surface of the bushing.

Abstract: A bolt mechanism comprising a backing plate adapted to be mounted on a complementary surface of a flat panel, a bolt assembly housing attached to the backing plate, a sliding bolt assembly carried on the bolt assembly housing one end of which has a bolt mechanism adapted to engage and latch to a striker, a spring on the housing for keeping the end of the bolt extending out of the bolt assembly housing, the backing plate being adapted for attachment to and detachment from an actuator housing assembly.

Abstract: A combination of an actuator housing assembly and a bolt mechanism adapted to enable attachment and detachment, the assemblies being carried on opposed sides of a panel. The bolt mechanism assembly comprises a sliding bolt assembly one element of which is adapted to latch to a striker.

Abstract: An actuator housing assembly comprising an actuator housing having an opening therein, a movable actuator member received in the opening, the actuator member having a front surface and a rear surface and being digitally movable in said opening, and a cam extending from the rear surface of said movable actuator member to operate a bolt which is biased by magnets of opposing polarity. The actuator housing assembly has means adapted to enable the attachment to and detachment from a bolt mechanism assembly having complementary means adapted to enable attachment and detachment.

Abstract: A ball transfer unit adapted to receive cargo for movement thereover having a ball race assembly including a cup member having a cylindrical wall extending therearound and having a terminal end at the outer extremity of said cup. The wall in proximity to said terminal end is provided with external threads. A plurality of roller balls repose in the cup. A rotatable cargo engageable ball rests on the roller balls. A ball cover is provided to prevent inadvertent removal of the cargo engaging ball from said assembly while allowing free rotation thereof. The ball cover has a terminal end and, in proximity to said terminal end, the cover is provided with internal threads. The external and internal threads are engageable to hold the ball cover in place on the ball race assembly during normal use and the ball cover being readily disengageable to permit disassembly and cleaning of the components of the unit. The unit has a flat, planar bottom surface on which to rest during disassembly.
