A clean toggle clamp is configured to operate without creating excessive debris. The clean toggle clamp includes a base; an arm rotationally coupled to the base via a first bearing isolated rod; a clamping element; a handle is rotationally coupled to the arm via a second bearing isolated rod. The handle includes a revolving latching pin and a linkage rotationally coupled on a first end to the handle via at least one third bearing isolated rod and on a second end to the base via a fourth bearing isolated rod. The toggle clamp includes a secondary latch rotationally coupled to the base and configured to engage the revolving latching pin to inhibit movement of the handle and arm. The handle, arm, linkage and secondary latch are configured to rotate without a frictional sliding of any of surface of the arm, the handle, the linkage or the base.

A latch mechanism includes a hook body having a hook body load bearing plate; a hook mechanism, the hook mechanism having a hook with a threaded shaft, the shaft defining a longitudinal axis with respect to the hook body; an adjustment mechanism configured to adjust an axial position of the hook with respect to the hook body; and a bearing block, the bearing block having a block load bearing plate disposed between the adjustment mechanism and the hook body load bearing plate, the bearing block including a first boss configured for engagement with the adjustment mechanism, a second boss configured for engagement with the hook body plate aperture, an inner diameter hole that allows the hook shaft threads to engage with the adjustment mechanism but provides suitable clearance within the second boss inner diameter to prevent the hook shaft threads from bearing out as required in Aerospace design.

A hook body for a latch mechanism is disclosed. In various embodiments, the hook body includes a plurality of longitudinal members on an upper and a lower surface only, each of the plurality of longitudinal members extending in a longitudinal direction along a full length with respect to the hook body, and a hook body load bearing plate connected to the plurality of longitudinal members and being oriented perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, the hook body load bearing plate configured to slidably receive a shaft connected to a hook, the shaft extending in the longitudinal direction with respect to the hook body.

A high visibility panel latch may comprise a latch handle coupled to a latch mechanism, wherein the latch handle comprises a visibility feature. The visibility features may comprise a portion of at least a first face and a second face of the latch handle. The visibility features may comprise a painted channel.

A container is disclosed that has a base and a lid that is rotatable about a hinge from a closed configuration to an open configuration. The lid may be secured to the base with a latch assembly. A latch assembly may have a locked position and an unlocked position, where the latch assembly includes: a latch body pivotally connected to the lid, a latch button slidably connected with the latch body, the latch button having a latch button-locking member, a latch-locking arm pivotally connected to the latch body, and a latch-locking arm biasing member that exerts a rotational force on the latch-locking arm. When the latch assembly is moved to the locked position, the latch-locking arm may engage the base and rotate against the rotational force from the latch-locking arm causing the latch button to move against the linear force until the latch button-locking member engages the arm-locking member.

A locking mechanism situated in an inner zone and comprising at least one component that is adjustable in a longitudinal direction and that is linked to a support by a link having a rod secured to the adjustable component. The link includes a guideway link, linking the rod and the support, and an adjustment system. The adjustment system comprises a pivoting control pivoting on itself and having a first end accessible from an outer zone, an intermediate piece configured to pivot on itself, an angle transmission converting a pivoting movement of the pivoting control into a pivoting movement of the intermediate piece, and a helical link converting a pivoting movement of the intermediate piece into a translational movement of the rod. The locking mechanism allows for adjustment from the outer zone. An aircraft comprising at least one such locking mechanism is also provided.

A latch includes a latch housing including a first housing portion and a second housing portion separable from the first housing portion. The second housing portion includes a keeper. A first arm member is in rotational communication with the first housing portion. The first arm member is configured to rotate about a first axis between a first position and a second position. A second arm member is in rotational communication with the first arm member. A latch load pin is in rotational communication with the first arm member about a second axis. The latch load pin is configured to mate with the keeper with the first arm member in the first position. The second arm member in the first position is configured to be fixed relative to the first arm member as the first arm member rotates from the first position toward the second position.
