First Claim
1. An industrial truck comprising:
- wall structure defining a compartment;
a pivoting door spanning an opening in the wall structure when in a closed position;
a pivoting structure coupling the pivoting door to the wall structure allowing the pivoting door to pivot relative to the wall structure; and
a latching structure comprising;
a latching bolt coupled to the wall structure;
a latching arm having a first end and a second end, wherein the arm is pivotably mounted at the first end to an element of the pivoting door; and
a latch torsion spring associated with the element and engaging the latching arm to bias the latching arm towards the latching bolt when the pivoting door moves in a direction from the closed position towards an open position.

Abstract
An industrial truck includes wall structure defining a compartment and a pivoting door spanning an opening in the wall structure when in a closed position. The truck also includes pivoting structure coupling the pivoting door to the wall structure allowing the pivoting door to pivot relative to the wall structure, and a latching structure. In particular, the latching structure includes a latching bolt coupled to the wall structure; a latching arm having a first end and a second end, wherein the arm is pivotably mounted at the first end to an element of the pivoting door; and a latch torsion spring associated with the element and engaging the latching arm to bias the latching arm towards the latching bolt when the pivoting door moves in a direction from the closed position towards an open position.
