A window vent stop for use in a sliding sash window assembly or a sliding door assembly. The vent stop has a housing adapted to be disposed in a recess in the non-movable sash member. This housing includes a cavity with a bottom plate therein. The tumbler has at least one pivot for pivotally securing the tumbler to the housing for movement between an extended position, to prevent movement of the sliding member and a retracted position, to allow movement of the sliding member. Also within the housing is a spring for biasing the tumbler. The housing has one or more flexible members extending from the end walls of the housing that secure the housing to an opening in a window sash when a portion of the window sash ispositioned between the underside of a lip on said housing and the flexible member.

A door locking device for an electric household appliance, in particular a dishwasher, including a first supporting body, a latch pivotally carried by the first supporting body about a first rotation axis and operatively associated in use with a door catch of the electric household appliance and elastic means carried by the first supporting body and secured between the latter and the latch to be adapted in use to make the latch selectively take first and second working positions, rotated to each other by a first angle about the first axis; wherein a second supporting body designed to be integrally carried in use by a door of the electric household appliance supports the first body overhangingly hinged on opposite side of the latch, second elastic means being interposed between the first and the second supporting bodies, which means are adapted to allow the same to rotate relatively about a second axis parallel to the first and eccentric with respect to the latch, at least by a second angle.

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.
