  • Patent number: 3998481
    Abstract: A draw and pull latch consisting of a base plate for attachment to a cabinet, a body pivoted at one end on the base plate and normally covering the base plate, and a draw and pull nose pivoted on the body parallel to and spaced from the body-base plate pivot. The body carries a pivotal latching plate aligned with at least one latching hook on the base plate and urged by a torsion spring to a latching position. In the fully latched position the draw and pull nose pivot axis is above a plane through the body-base plate pivot axis and the keeper engagement by the draw and pull nose so that the latch will urge itself to a fully open position when the latch plate is disengaged from the latching hook.
