Abstract
A latch system for securing a sliding window to a fixed member, the latch assembly including a latch housing, a catch housing, and a latch assembly. The latch assembly includes first and second latch arms and an actuator. The latch arms are pivotally secured to the latch housing and include first, actuated ends that are disposed within the latch housing and second, latching ends that are disposed outside of the latch housing and received by the catch housing. The actuator is slidably secured to the latch housing and operable to engage the latch arms' actuated ends so as to pivot the latching ends out of engagement with the catch housing and thereby permit the latch housing and the window associated therewith to move relative to the fixed member.
