A cargo restraint assembly for a cargo handling system is provided. The cargo restraint assembly includes a restraint device (114, 214) and an automated latching mechanism coupled to the restraint device (114, 214). The restraint device (114, 214) includes a shaft and a torque transmitting pin positioned within the shaft and configured to rotate the shaft. The automated latching mechanism includes a motor, a motor coupling shaft coupled to the motor, and a latch coupling shaft coupled to the torque transmitting pin and configured to interface with the motor coupling shaft. Responsive to the motor being commanded to activate the restraint device (114, 214), the motor rotates the motor coupling shaft in a first rotational direction. Responsive to the motor coupling shaft rotating, the motor coupling shaft rotates the latch coupling shaft in the first rotational direction. Responsive to the latch coupling shaft rotating, the latch coupling shaft rotates thereby causing the restraint device (114, 214) to engage the ULD.
