A camera housing includes a simplified draw latch for securing a first portion and a second portion of the camera housing together. The draw latch can include a draw hook and a mid-linkage. The draw latch enables a user to easily open and close a camera housing, and may also allow a user to establish an air-tight or water-tight seal between the housing portions for use in various activities, including scuba diving.

A camera housing includes a first and second housing portion and a draw latch. The first housing portion includes a monolithic panel base hinge. The second housing portion is pivotally coupled to the first housing portion. The draw latch secures the first and second housing portions to enclose a camera. The draw latch is coupled to the first housing portion and coupleable to the second housing portion. The draw latch includes a draw hook and a mid-linkage. The mid-linkage includes a draw hook hinge end, a draw hook lip end, and first and second segments. The draw hook hinge end rotatably connects to the draw latch. The first segment couples first sides of the draw hook hinge end and the draw hook lip end to one another. The second segment couples the draw hook hinge end and the draw hook lip end together. The mid-linkage is plastic and substantially rigid.

Systems and methods for operating a tag. The methods comprise: actuating a telescoping actuator of the tag to transition a pin from an unengaged position in which the pin is retracted into a first portion of the tag's housing to an engaged position in which the pin extends through an insert space and into a second portion of the tag's housing; and mechanically securing the pin in the engaged position using a securement mechanism disposed in the second portion of the tag's housing. The pin is securely coupled to a movable component of the telescoping actuator so as to be integrated into the tag's body, and the first and second portions of the tag's housing are coupled to each other so as to form a unitary piece.

A camera housing includes a simplified draw latch for securing a first portion and a second portion of the camera housing together. The draw latch can include a draw hook and a wireform mid-linkage. The draw latch enables a user to easily open and close a camera housing, and to establish an air-tight or water-tight seal between the housing portions for use in various activities, including scuba diving.

The present subject matter provides a locking system configured to lock at least one furniture moving component, the locking system comprising: a strip configured to attach to a wall of a furniture and extend out of the furniture beyond the at least one furniture moving component; and a fastener configured to accommodate the strip, slide along the strip and fasten to the strip while clinging to the at least one furniture moving component, thereby locking the at least one furniture moving component. In addition, there is provided a method for manufacturing a fastener made of one piece of material, the method comprising: preparing a mold of the fastener; and inserting a casting material into the mold. Furthermore, there is provided a method for locking at least one furniture moving component of a furniture with the locking system of the present subject matter.
