Abstract
In an example, a panel may include a latch. An example latch may include a wheel, a housing engaged with the wheel, and a bias member to bias the wheel and housing. The housing and wheel may move together along a side of the panel, and the bias member may bias the housing and wheel against the direction of movement of the housing and wheel. The bias member may exert a reactive force against the panel.
