Abstract
A latch assembly () for use with a cabinet () that includes a cabinet body () and a moving component (C), comprises a transverse member () and a pivoting member (). The transverse member () is selectively coupled to the cabinet body (). The pivoting member () is pivotally secured to the transverse member (). The pivoting member () pivots relative to the transverse member () between a first position in which the pivoting member () inhibits large scale movement of the moving component (C) relative to the cabinet body (), and a second position in which the pivoting member () allows for large scale movement of the moving component (C) relative to the cabinet body (). Additionally, a portion of the pivoting member () can selectively engage a portion of the transverse member () to selectively inhibit the pivoting member () from pivoting relative to the transverse member () and to selectively inhibit large scale movement of the moving component (C) relative to the cabinet body ().
