DEVICE AND METHOD FOR INTEGRATED HANDS-FREE DOOR HANDLE
A device includes a door latch activator configured to disengage a door latch from a door frame and a door handle coupled to the door latch activator and configured to activate the door latch activator to disengage the door latch from the door frame. The device further includes a movable plunger having a first end coupled to the door latch activator and adapted to activate the door latch activator to disengage the door latch from the door frame, and an arm rest coupled to a second end of the plunger. The second end is opposite the first end, and the arm rest includes a base region adapted to receive a downward force to engage the plunger. When the base region engages the plunger, the plunger causes the door latch activator to disengage the door latch from the door frame. The plunger may be spring-activated.
