ABSTRACT:
A release/restraint mechanism for air-dropped cargo interposed between fixed aircraft structure and the restraining webbing. A fixed arm is oriented opposite a pivoted arm which is fixed in one position and free to rotate in the release position. A restraint arm is pivoted at one end of the fixed arm and engages a cam on the pivoted arm. The pivoted arm is angled about the pivot point so as to provide a side load on the end pivoted arm so as to open the restraint arm when in the release position, freeing the cargo for a gravity air drop.
