Handle assembly with dual latch feature

A handle assembly ( 10 ) is shown. The assembly includes a rotatable, spring handle ( 12, 120 ) with a plunger ( 14, 114 ) having a first engagement feature or surface ( 16, 116 ) for receipt of a spring force; a trigger device ( 20, 150 ) in operative connection with the handle; and a blocking member ( 24, 160 ) movable with the handle and rotatably mounted on the handle, the blocking member including a latch at a distal end thereof ( 26, 166 ). The blocking member is in operative connection with the trigger device and a portion of the latch is retained by a remote retention surface ( 22 ) when the assembly is in a locked configuration. Upon sufficient mechanical movement of the trigger device and the blocking member, the latch is no longer restricted by the retention surface.
