Claim Text:
1. An assembly for retaining a slide-room of a recreational vehicle in a closed position, comprising: a strut member extending between the slide-room and a wall of the recreational vehicle, the strut member being pivotable between a first position and a second position corresponding to an extended position and a retracted position, respectively, of the slide-room; a guide member coupled to the strut member and movable therewith such that pivoting motion of the strut member between the first position and the second position causes corresponding linear motion of the guide member along a guide between a first position and a second position; wherein the strut member applies a compressive force to the slide-room and a vehicle wall adjacent the slide-room to inhibit movement of the slide-room when the slide-room is in the retracted position.
