A latching assembly comprising: a lift housing extending along a center axis between a first opened end and a second opened end and defining a chamber extending therebetween; a support tube slidably disposed in said chamber extending about said center axis between a first end and a second end; and a moving member (66, 68) disposed between said support tube and said lift housing for moving said lift housing between an extended position and a lowered position; said moving member (66, 68) including an inner ring and an outer ring with said inner ring extending about said support tube and said outer ring being attached to said lift housing for translating an axial movement of said support tube into a rotational movement to secure said lift housing in said extended position and allow said lift housing to move from said extended position to said lowered position; wherein the latching assembly further comprises a plurality of engagement members (88, 90) located between said inner ring and said outer ring for moving said inner ring and said outer ring axially along said center axis between said extended position and said lowered position, wherein said engagement members (88, 90) include a plurality of inner ring teeth extending radially outwardly from an exterior surface of said inner ring, circumferentially spaced from one another, and along said center axis to an inner ring teeth end for engaging said outer ring, characterized in that each of said inner ring teeth includes a cam extending radially outwardly from said inner ring teeth and diagonally across said inner ring teeth at an oblique angle relative to said center axis, wherein the latching assembly further includes a pair of arms extending outwardly from said inner ring teeth end orthogonal to one another and tapering toward an upper end with one of said pair of arms being longer than another one of said pair of arms to define a cavity having a V-shape extending between said pair of arms. a lift housing extending along a center axis between a first opened end and a second opened end and defining a chamber extending therebetween; a support tube slidably disposed in said chamber extending about said center axis between a first end and a second end; and a moving member (66, 68) disposed between said support tube and said lift housing for moving said lift housing between an extended position and a lowered position; said moving member (66, 68) including an inner ring and an outer ring with said inner ring extending about said support tube and said outer ring being attached to said lift housing for translating an axial movement of said support tube into a rotational movement to secure said lift housing in said extended position and allow said lift housing to move from said extended position to said lowered position; wherein the latching assembly further comprises a plurality of engagement members (88, 90) located between said inner ring and said outer ring for moving said inner ring and said outer ring axially along said center axis between said extended position and said lowered position, wherein said engagement members (88, 90) include a plurality of inner ring teeth extending radially outwardly from an exterior surface of said inner ring, circumferentially spaced from one another, and along said center axis to an inner ring teeth end for engaging said outer ring, characterized in that each of said inner ring teeth includes a cam extending radially outwardly from said inner ring teeth and diagonally across said inner ring teeth at an oblique angle relative to said center axis, wherein the latching assembly further includes a pair of arms extending outwardly from said inner ring teeth end orthogonal to one another and tapering toward an upper end with one of said pair of arms being longer than another one of said pair of arms to define a cavity having a V-shape extending between said pair of arms.
