Unhappy Latching Mechanism

ok guys were in some trouble late into the build season we had some mentor/teacher problems that caused one of our few mentors to not return without his expertise we have been severly behind schedual and are in dire need of assistance. our dillem is that we can not figure out how to make a latching mechanism thats able to be used repeatedly and have some tremendouse forces being exerted on it we have expirimentid with pnumatic actuator, winch latches, door latches and even gate latches. however to our dismay none have been succesful if you have any ideas to help it would be much appreciated

P.S. we do not have any sponsors and are on a very limited budget
