Abstract:
A retention system for restraining and releasing a movable monitor including a monitor, a latch bail, and a latching assembly with one of the latch bail and the latching assembly being connected to the monitor. The latching assembly includes a latch base, a latch, and a tensioning device. The latch base has at least one ear and the latch has at least one arm. The latch is pivotally connected to the latch base such that the latch is rotatable between closed and open positions. The tensioning device engages the latch and the latch base such that the tensioning device pulls the latch toward either of the open or closed positions. The latching assembly receives the latch bail such that the latch bail is retained between the ear and the arm when the latch is in the closed position.
