Abstract
A pawl latch having a pin assembly with a pin and a receiver assembly adapted to receive the pin assembly. The receiver assembly includes a receiver housing having a slider positioned slidably on the receiver housing, a cam rotatably mounted in the receiver housing, and a link connecting the cam and the slider. Rotating the cam moves the slider along the receiver housing. The receiver assembly includes a pawl and a stop, each having arms, respectively, that rotate. When the receiver assembly receives the pin assembly, contacts the arms of the stop and facilitates their rotation, in which the cam is enabled to be rotated and, in turn, facilitates movement of the slider. The arms of the pawl are rotated in order to lock the pin head of the pin assembly within the receiver assembly.
