  • Latch for vehicle overhead storage bin
    Patent number: 6062623
    Abstract: A storage bin is pivotally mounted to a housing and includes a recess having a latching surface which extends in a plane generally orthogonal to the direction of angular motion of the storage bin when it moves from a closed to an open position. A pivoted latch member is mounted in spaced pivotal relationship to the housing and has an end forming a latch stop which selectively engages the latching surface of the recess of the storage bin for preventing movement of the storage bin by blocking movement of the storage bin.
