A door latch assembly includes a housing, an inside and outside handle operably coupled with the housing, and a latch plunger. A latch cam is operably coupled with the inside and outside handles, and the latch cam further includes a crank arm slidably disposed against an inclined surface of an offset plunger leg operably coupled to the latch plunger. A biasing member urges the latch plunger to an extended position, wherein rotation of the inside or outside door latch handle in a first direction rotates the crank arm of the latch cam and displaces the plunger leg of the latch plunger and the latch plunger to a retracted position against the urging of the biasing member.

A panel device, particularly a roof light for a recreational vehicle, comprises an at least substantially polygonal frame which surrounds an opening. A window is connected to the frame for pivoting about a pivot axis and comprises a panel which extends over the opening. Provided between the frame and the window is a stay device which is manipulable between a first position, in which the window is forced into a flat state and closes the opening, and at least one second position in which the window is raised by the stay device and leaves the opening at least partially clear. The stay device comprises a stay which extends movably from an elongate guide at a first outer end and is connected pivotally to the window at an opposite, second outer end. The stay is adjustable in the guide and is coupled to an actuator via a flexible transmission. The transmission comprises at least one tension-resistant pull member which is coupled to the stay and which is movable in an axially at least substantially rigid yet flexible sleeve, a first outer end of which is fixed to or close to the stay and a second outer end of which is attached to or close to the actuator.
