Abstract

An emergency opening device for an overhead locker with a housing and a lowerable shell includes a connecting element which is connectable to a retention system operatively coupling the housing to the lowerable shell. The emergency opening device also includes a locking device adapted to move from a locked position in which the locking device is coupled with the connecting element to an unlocked position in which the locking device is uncoupled from the connecting element to release the lowerable shell from the retention system.
