A lock (1) for a motor vehicle door, comprising: an assembly of control means (7), each control means being mobile; an assembly of opening levers (10A, 10B) of said door (2), each lever (10A, 10B) being intended to enable the opening of the door (2) by a control means (7) of the control means assembly, each lever (10A, 10B) comprising a cam (11A, 11B) which can rotate about an axis of rotation (8) and is fixed to said control means (7) in a fixation region (9) so as to be rotated during a movement of the control means (7); a blocking means (12) configured to take an active blocking position, in which said blocking means (12) blocks an opening lever (10A), and a rest position in which said blocking means (12) authorises the movement of each opening lever (10A, 10B), a spring-back blocking means (14) configured to switch said blocking means (12) from the rest position to the active blocking position, and a trigger means (16) configured to take a rest position in which said trigger means (16) blocks the blocking means (12) in the rest position thereof and an active unblocking position in which said trigger (16) releases said blocking means (12) so that said blocking means switches from the rest position to the active blocking position, the blocking means (12) and one opening lever (10B) not blocked by the blocking means in the blocking position (10) interacting so as to convey the blocking means (12) from the active blocking position to the rest position when said non-blocked opening lever (10B) pivots in the opening direction of the door (2).

A lock including a latch provided at one of a door and a cabinet, and a coupler provided at the other one of the door and the cabinet, the coupler including a housing including a latch insertion hole, an engaging lever including an engaging lever body rotatably provided within the housing, a latch insertion groove having a first end of the latch inserted therein by extending from a first end of the engaging part body, and first, second, third, and fourth projections formed by extending a second end of the engaging lever body.

A door latch and a dishwasher fitted with a door latch are described. The door latch has a body, a pawl provided with a rotating shaft, a first gap being provided between two ends of the rotating shaft, and a mounting slot being provided in one side of the pawl, a first pin mounted on the pawl, the first pin being mounted in the mounting slot in the pawl, a spring having two ends which are connected to the body and the pawl, respectively, a first end of the spring being connected to the first pin through the first gap. During installation of the door latch, assembly of the door latch is quick and easy because the first pin is put into the pin mounting slot in the pawl from the top side of the pin mounting slot, and repair with changing of components is also easy.

The invention relates to a lock (1) for an openable body section of a motor vehicle including: a lever (10) for opening said openable body section intended for allowing the opening of the openable body section; a locking means (12) configured to adopt an operative locking position in which said locking means (12) locks said opening lever (10) and an inoperative position in which said locking means (12) allows the movement of said lever (10); a resilient locking return means (14) configured so as to move said locking means (12) from the inoperative position to the operative locking position; and a triggering means (16) configured so as to adopt an inoperative position in which said triggering means (16) locks the locking means (12) in the inoperative position thereof and an operative unlocking position in which said trigger (16) releases said locking means (12) in order for the later to pass from the inoperative position to the operative locking position, the opening lever (10) including a driving means (11c) configured to move the locking means (12) from the operative locking position to the inoperative position when the opening lever (10) pivots towards the direction in which the openable body section opens.

A handheld vacuum cleaner(10) includes a main body(22) with a handle(98) and a receptacle(150), a motor assembly(114) positioned within the main body(22), and a battery(138) configured to be selectively received within the receptacle(150) to power the motor assembly(114). The handheld vacuum cleaner(10) also includes a latch(490) movable between a blocking position that prevents removal of the battery(138) from the receptacle(150) and a released position that allows removal of the battery(138) from the receptacle(150). The latch(490) elastically deforms to move between the blocking position and the released position.

A container is disclosed that has a housing and a lid. The lid has a planar portion and a latch that is freely movable parallel to the planar portion of the lid. The latch has a retention feature and a first reference surface that is perpendicular to the planar portion of the lid. There is a latch mechanism coupled to the housing that has an engagement element configured to engage the retention feature of the latch and a first alignment feature having a first alignment surface. The first alignment feature is configured to laterally displace the latch in a first direction such that the first reference surface aligns with the first alignment surface when the lid is brought together with the housing with the fastener laterally displaced away from the engagement element in a second direction that is opposite to the first direction.
