Abstract:
An inertia insensitive disconnectable drive linkage connects a power operator to a swinging door and comprises a door bracket fixed to the door and an arm operator pivoted thereto. A latch positively locks the operator arm to the bracket during normal powered swing of the door. A cam on the door frame releases the latch when the door is swung beyond the door closed position in the opposite direction of opening during emergency operation.
