F-591 C-3995 COMPARTMENT PANEL PULL DOWN MECHANISM Abstract of the Disclosure Mechanism for pulling an opened compartment panel closed and engaging a latch with a striker includes a slide member mounted on the body for horizontal reciprocating movement and having a cam slot which receives a cam follower carried by the striker so that horizontal reciprocating movement of the slide member vertically reciprocates the striker. The cam slot includes an inclined cam surface effective to provide the vertical reciprocation of the striker. The cam slot also includes a horizontal dwell surface at the end of the inclined surface to define the retracted position of the striker in which the compartment panel is closed so that the load imposed on the compartment lid in the direction to pry open the compartment panel is prevented from urging the slide member in a direction which would permit the striker to extend. A second horizontal dwell surface at the other end of the inclined surface defines the extended position of the striker so that a slamming movement of the compartment panel toward the closed position latching the latch with the striker is prevented from urging movement of the slide member in a direction to permit retraction of the striker. Thus, the pull down mechanism is constructed so that a vertical load imposed on the striker when the compartment panel is slammed or when the compartment panel is pried open is not exerted on the motorized drive unit.
