Abstract

A quick opening latch arrangement for hinged vehicle windows in which the window opening that is defined by the vehicle side wall has a sash frame assembly hinged to the window framing at the top of the window opening, and the sash frame assembly along its lower rail is equipped with a latch and release bar hinged thereto for cooperation with a keeper bar in parallelism therewith that is adjustably mounted on the window frame sash subframe. The keeper bar is formed with an elongate bead of cylindrical configuration that is snap fitted in a similarly contoured socket formed in the latch and release bar, to latch the sash frame assembly in its closed position, with the latch assembly being arranged to effectively resist opening under pressures acting outwardly of the window and the sash assembly, while providing for quick release of the latch under a light manually applied pulling action on the latch and release bar.
