Plastic enclosure for enclosing industrial components

The invention relates to a plastic enclosure for enclosing industrial components. The enclosure comprises a case (2), a lid (9), and a latch device (13) for locking the lid to the case. The lid (9) has a grip means formed as a rigid lug (14) molded to be monolithic with the lid (9), the lug comprising a throughhole (19) to which a hook portion (17) of a rocker (15) can grip. The lug (14) is arranged, in the closed position of the lid, to extend over and at a distance from the second wall (7) to be substantially in parallel with a wall of the case to limit an intermediate space between the wall (7) and the lug (14) when the lid is in the closed position. The hook portion (17) is arranged so that, in the release position (II) of the rocker (15), it is turned inside the intermediate space away from the path of the lug (14) and, in the locking position (I) of the rocker, the hook portion is turned to protrude laterally outwards through the through-hole (19) of the lug (14) and to compress the sealing gasket (12) by pressing the sealing flange (8) against the sealing gasket (12) to create a spring force against which the hook portion holds the lug (14). The output force of the hook portion (17) exerted to the lug (14) is amplified by a mechanical advantage provided by a lever effect of the rocker (15) when being turned to the locking position by an input force exerted to the handle arm (18).

Encapsulated bearing block design for adjustable hook latch

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.

The present invention discloses a thermal box comprising a body; the body comprises a box body, a box cover and locking devices provided on a front side and a rear side of the body respectively; the snap fastening seat is fixed on the box body; two extended lugs are provided on the box cover; the snap fastening seat is provided with a pivot seat between the two extended lugs; two mounting lugs are provided on a top side of the snap fastening member; the two extended lugs are positioned between the two mounting lugs and interconnected thereto via a rotating shaft to rotate inwards and outwards; a fastening structure which fastens by pressing inwards and unfastens by pulling outwards is provided on the inner side of the snap fastening member and the snap fastening seat.

Compression-held bracket

A bracket for a board that removably couples to a base. The bracket can include a slot at one end and a compression member at the other end. The slot can fit over the base at a first end of the base and can be removed from that end of the base upon removal of the compression member at the other end of the base. The compression member can be removed against a bias such that the compression member applies a bias to the base when the bracket is coupled to the base, and that bias can be removed so as to allow the removal of the bracket. A pegboard or other type of board can be coupled to the bracket with fasteners or other known means.
