Abstract: The disclosure relates to a latching mechanism for securing an enclosure case of a computer system to a rack. The rack has two pairs of spaced apart posts, each having attachment locations for supporting two cooperative oppositely facing bracket members. The bracket members include platforms for supporting the bottom of the case, such as a case for a CPU. Each member has supports for rotatably receiving a torsion shaft of a latch. Each shaft is formed with two spaced apart arms having outer portions that engage the upper corners of the opposite sides of the case at two locations on each side. The arms of each shaft are angularly displaced relative to each other along the shaft so that one arm is caused to engage the case before the other arm, and in effecting the holding contact of the arms a torque is placed on the shaft, which remains as a positive force latching the case to the bracket and hence to the rack.
