Abstract

An override bypass assembly comprises a cable and a pulley wheel operably connected to the cable. The cable in operation rotates the pulley wheel when tension is applied to the cable. The override bypass assembly also comprises a telescoping cylinder assembly operably connected to the pulley wheel. The pulley wheel in operation moves the telescoping cylinder assembly to an unlocked position. The override bypass assembly further comprises a biasing mechanism operably connected to at least one of the pulley wheel and the telescoping cylinder assembly. The biasing mechanism in operation moves the telescoping cylinder to a locked position when tension applied to the cable is relieved.
