Patent abstract
Embodiments of the present invention include a filter latching device for use in a filtering system that provides filtered intake air for a power generation facility. In some embodiments, a filter latch is provided that includes a hinge coupled to the filter frame and an S-shaped retaining plate rotatably coupled to the hinge. In some embodiments, the S-shaped retaining plate provides an over-center action mechanism that locks the retaining plate in place against a sealing flange and a camming surface that provides gradually increasing pressure on the sealing flange as the latch is engaged.
