Latch and locking structure

A latch (100) for releasably locking a first object (200) to a second object (300), wherein the latch (100) comprises:

• a housing (110), fixed to the first object (200);
• a locking member (120), accommodated in the housing (110) and pivotable between a locked position and an unlocked position in respect to the housing (110) along a lateral axis, when the locking member (120) is located in the locked position, locking portions (122) of the locking member (120) are capable of extending from the housing (110), and when the locking member (120) is in the unlocked position, the locking portions (122) of the locking member (120) retract into the housing (110);
• an operating member (130), at least partially accommodated in the housing (110), the operating member (130) is capable of performing a longitudinal movement between a first position and a second position in respect to the housing (110), and a direction of the longitudinal movement is substantially perpendicular to the lateral axis;
• wherein the operating member (130) is coupled with the locking member (120), such that a movement of the operating member (130) is capable of being converted into a pivoting movement of the locking member (120), when the operating member (130) moves longitudinally forward from the first position to the second position, the locking member (120) is pivoted from the locked position to the unlocked position;
• wherein the locking member (120) includes a pivoting shaft (121) and wherein the pivoting shaft (121) and the locking portions (122) are arranged at opposite ends of the locking member (120) along a longitudinal direction parallel to the longitudinal movement of the operating member (130);
• and
• wherein the locking member (120) includes first recessed portions (123) located between the pivoting shaft (121) and the locking portions (122), concavely formed along a thickness direction of the locking member body (129), and the thickness direction is perpendicular to a lateral direction and a longitudinal direction of the locking member (120).
