- and
- a swing plate having one side extended to form an elongated arm with a tip to press against a side wall of the slide shank to form a brake;
- and
- the lower bolt set includes:
- a lower bolt for running through the lower bolt openings having one side formed a sloped surface and another side extending rearwards to form a stem for coupling with a spring, the stem having a groove;
- a slide member coupling on the guide rail of the bolt dock and having a semicircular trough formed on a front section at the right side to house the stem of the lower bolt and the spring and a wedge plate, and another semicircular trough formed on a rear section to house another spring, the slide member further has a ridge formed on a left side to couple with the slide flute of the lid for moving horizontally within a limited distance, the slide member also has a retaining axle located on an upper side thereof;
- a push arm having one end formed an axle hole to couple with the strut of the bolt dock and another end formed a cavity to hold one end of a spring, the cavity being coupled with the guide rail of the bolt dock and having one side with a trough formed thereon to hold one end of a the torsional spring;
- a rocker plate formed in a hook shape having an axle hole on a corner section and a notch, the axle hole being coupled with a pintle which is located between the bolt dock and the lid and being coupled with the axle holes formed thereon;
- and
- a wedge plate having a notch formed on one side to clip the groove of the stem of the lower bolt and a bent flap on another side to latch on the slide member;
- wherein the upper bolt and the lower bolt lock the door automatically when closed and are free from deformation.
