Abstract

A latch mechanism includes a frame, an elastic sheet, a sliding bracket, a hooking portion, and a resilient restoring member connected to the frame and the sliding bracket. The elastic sheet includes a fixing portion, a receiving portion and a fastening member. The fixing portion is fixed to the frame opposite to the fastening member. The sliding bracket includes a bracket body slidable between the elastic sheet and the frame, and a protruding portion received in the receiving portion. The hooking portion is connected to the bracket body, and removably hooked on an end surface of the frame. When the sliding bracket moves the protruding portion, the resilient restoring member and the hooking portion, the protruding portion pushes the fastening member into the frame, and the hooking portion is hooked by the end surface of the frame to keep the resilient restoring member not being resumed.
