MECHANISM FOR LATCHING AN AXIALLY DISPLACEABLE ROTARY PART TO A CONCENTRIC ROTARY PART A B S T R A C T An axially displaceable rotary part (4) is latched securely in a certain axial position relative to a con- centric rotary part (1) by a mechanism (10) which in- cludes latch means (12, 13) that are rotated with the concentric part (1) and are displaceable radially rela- tive to it by movements of a ring member (20) so as to engage elements (14) of the latch-means with and disen- gage them from a latchable member (5, 6) of the axially displaceable part. At operating speeds of the system the latch means are urged to latching position by centri- fugal force. Although applicable to various rotary mechanical systems, the mechanism is particularly useful as a component of a heavy duty cyclical centrifugal machine (70) for latching the bottom valve member (80) of the centrifugal basket (72) in closed position during the loading and centrifuging stages of each centrifugal operating cycle.
