Patent

CA 2409804

A latch-type tile mounting system for mounting a tile to the frame of a wall panel. An outwardly extending hook is engaged with the wall panel frame, and includes an outer hook portion. The tile includes a receiver within which the outer hook portion of the hook member is received, and blocking structure that prevents engagement with the outer hook portion. A latch member is movably mounted to the tile over the receiver, and is movable between an open or unlocked position for enabling the outer hook portion to be moved into and out of engagement with the receiver, and a closed or locked position in which the latch member engages the outer hook portion to secure the tile to the frame. The latch member is pivotably movable between its locked and unlocked positions, preferably via a fastener that secures the latch member to the tile. The latch member includes a specially configured opening which receives the outer hook portion of the hook member when the latch member is in its unlocked position, and which defines an engagement edge or surface that is operable to maintain the outer hook portion of the hook member within the receiver when the latch member is in its locked position. The latch member includes an inner stop member and an outer manually engageable tab. The inner stop member engages a surface of the tile to position the latch member in its unlocked position, and the tab engages an outer surface defined by the tile to position the latch member in its locked position.
