Dual position latch apparatus

An apparatus comprising:

• a sub-chassis slidably receivable within a chassis bay, the sub-chassis including a sub-chassis bay for slidably receiving a component, and the sub-chassis further including a latch apparatus;
• the latch apparatus comprising:
• a rigid structure secured along a proximal edge of the sub-chassis;
• an actuator having a fixed position relative to the rigid structure and rotatable about a longitudinal axis relative to the sub-chassis, wherein the actuator has an accessible head portion for manual rotation and a threaded portion;
• a coupling bracket threadably engaging the threaded portion of the actuator and constrained to longitudinal translational movement, the coupling bracket having a horizontal member with a lateral slot;
• a cam hook having a proximal end, a distal hook end and a central portion pivotally coupled to the rigid structure, wherein the cam hook is constrained to pivoting about a vertical axis between a retracted position and an extended position extending the distal hook end outward and forward relative to a first lateral side of the rigid structure to engage the chassis bay and secure the sub-chassis within the chassis bay;
• a component lock coupled to the rigid structure and constrained to lateral translational movement between a retracted position and an extended position extending a lock arm from a second lateral side of the rigid structure to engage the component and secure the component within the sub-chassis bay, the component lock having a longitudinal slot;
• and
• a vertically extending pin coupled with the proximal end of the cam hook, extending through the lateral slot in the horizontal member of the coupling bracket, and extending through the longitudinal slot in the component lock;
• wherein rotation of the actuator in a first rotational direction pivots the cam hook to the extended position and moves the component lock to the retracted position, and wherein rotation of the actuator in a second rotational direction pivots the cam hook to the retracted position and moves the component lock to the extended position.
