Abstract
A rotary latch mechanism for releasably securing a first structure relative to a second structure. The rotary latch mechanism includes a housing adapted to be attached to the first structure, an actuator assembly coupled to the housing, a linkage coupled to the actuator assembly and arranged for movement along the housing with movement of the actuator assembly, and a bolt coupled to the housing and to the linkage, the bolt arranged for pivotal movement relative to the housing with movement of the linkage. The bolt is adapted to move between a latched position engaged with the second structure to secure the first structure relative to the second structure and an unlatched position spaced apart from the second structure to allow movement of the first structure relative to the second structure.
