The present application relates to a handle arrangement (1) for a door (10), comprising a handle (2) and a locking clamp (3) for engaging a locking element on a door frame (70). The locking clamp is arranged to rotate around a first axis (A) from a locking to an intermediate position and to move linearly along a second axis (B) from the intermediate to an open position, when the handle is moved between a closed, intermediate, and open state. The arrangement comprises a resilient means (8) arranged to keep the locking clamp from moving from the intermediate position towards the open position until a force applied in the direction of the linear movement of the locking clamp towards the open position exceeds a resilient force of the resilient means. With this arrangement, a handle arrangement which may be opened in several steps is provided such that the opening of a door may be performed in a controlled manner.

A swivel lock assembly with electronic and manual actuating means to unlock a handle thereby permitting access to the interior of the cabinet wherein the manual actuator can override the electronic actuator and vice versa. When in a locked position, the handle rests within lock housing such that the handle engages a blocker mounted within the housing. To unlock the handle, the blocker is manipulated by electronic or manual actuation such that the handle is no longer constrained and can be swung away from the housing about a handle pivot.

A handle assembly for a vehicle door includes: a body defining an opening dimensioned to at least partially receive therein a hand of a user, the opening communicating with a chamber defined in the body anterior of the opening; at least one pivot arm mounted on the body for pivotal movement relative thereto; a closure for the opening, the closure connected to the at least one pivot arm for pivotal movement relative thereto, and the closure selectively moveable relative to the body between a first position, in which the closure occupies the opening, and a second position, in which the closure is moved into the chamber so that the hand of the user may be at least partially received through the opening; and a motor for effecting selective movement of the closure between the first and second positions thereof. In movement from the first position to the second position of the closure, the at least one pivot arm pivotally moves relative to the body in a first direction and the closure pivotally moves relative to the at least one pivot arm in a second direction which is opposite the first direction.

A latch that is waterproof or water-resistant so as to resist the entry of water through the latch. The latch can be a slam latch having a pawl with a shaft. A sealing element, for example, a collar and/or an O-ring, can be placed around the shaft of the pawl to resist water from entering through the latch. The pawl can also enclose the cavity in which the latch handle is maintained so water cannot enter through the cavity. Other measures, such as a gasket and selective welding, can also be implemented to improve the water-resistance of the latch.

The present invention relates to a handle arrangement for arrangement to a door comprising a body, wherein the body, when arranged to said door, extends substantially in parallel with an outer surface of said door, a handle for rotational movement relative to the body to open a latching arrangement, a latching element for latching engagement with a corresponding lock element arranged on said door frame, wherein the latching element is rotatable relative to the body between an unlatching position and a latching position, and a pushing element in rotationally fixed connection with the handle. The pushing element is arranged to, when rotated in a first direction, push the latching element from the latching position to the open position, and the pushing element comprises a sliding member in slidable connection to a sliding surface on the latching element, such that a rotational movement in the first direction of the pushing element provides an accelerated rotational movement of the latching element.

A latch arrangement may comprise a latch bolt configured to rotate about a pivot, and a shear pin coupled to the latch bolt. A counterbore may receive the shear pin whereby lateral loads may be transferred between a door panel and a frame.

A latch system that includes a paddle button assembly having a button that is movable between home and actuation positions, a latch assembly that includes a striker assembly with a striker and a hook assembly, and a cable that extends between the paddle button and latch assembly. The hook assembly includes a hook, a pivotal trigger arm, and a manual override switch that is movable between first and second positions when the trigger arm is moved from an engaged position to a disengaged position. Movement of the button from the home position to the actuation position pushes or pulls the cable, thereby pivoting the trigger arm from the engaged to the disengaged position and disengaging the hook from the striker. Pivotal movement of the trigger arm from the engaged to the disengaged position results in linear movement of the manual override switch from the first to the second position.
