Abstract

Mechanism for attaching a military mine roller to the front end of a miliy tank. Latch structures of simplified design are utilized to minimize the adverse effects of manufacturing tolerances on latch structure performance. Each latch structure includes an arcuate curved surface partially encircling a pin means carried by the mine roller, whereby the pin means is firmly retained against escape from the latch structure.
