DOOR LATCH ASSEMBLY ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A latch assembly for securing a microwave oven door with an inner liner to the front face of the microwave oven including two spaced latch pawls pivotally secured to an elongated support member in the door and projecting through the inner liner of the door and movable to latching and unlatching positions. The pawls are individually biased to the latching position and a vertical handle on the outside of the door is secured to a transverse vertical actuator member such that upon pulling the handle, the actuator member rotates and pivots the pawls in unison to the unlatching position. The actuator member has secured at each end thereof pivot rods extending longitudinally beyond the actuator member and into bushings secured to the support member at each end. There is provided means to bias the actuator member longitudinally in one direction. By this arrangement close tolerance relationships are maintained for precise latching and unlatching of the latch assembly.
