(54) | Panic-opening device for a door |
(57) The device (1) is applied to a safety door and comprises a first body (2) with a
central part (3) and two lateral parts (4 and 5) one of which houses a mechanism (12)
which comprises: a bar (13) supporting a spring latch (14) and which moves between
a locking position in which the spring latch (14) engages a seat (29) defined in a
second body (30) supported by the doorpost and a release position in which the spring
latch (14) is free to disengage from the seat (29); a lever (27) rotating between
a first position in which it locates on the spring latch (14) to maintain the latter
in the locking position and a second position in which it is disengaged, permitting
the spring latch (14), by means of a simple pressure on the door, to retract towards
the inside of the first lateral part (4) and disengage from the seat (29); and a control
bar (44) supported by the central part (3) and suitable, if pushed, for acting on
the lever (27) to determine rotation of the latter from the first to the second position.
