DOOR ASSEMBLY SLIDE UNIT DISENGAGEMENT SYSTEM
Examples provide a door assembly including a sliding door carrier unit having a disengagement mechanism for utilization within a vehicle cabin. The door assembly includes a sliding door movably mounted to a door support member of a seat unit. The door slides laterally between a fully retracted position and a deployed or partially deployed position. A decoupling latch is engaged to detach the sliding door from one or more slide units on the door support member. An auxiliary slide device includes at least one guide and guide profile to support the door and enable the door to return to the retracted position after the door is decoupled from the slide unit in a backup operational mode. The decoupling mechanism enables a user to return the sliding door to a fully retracted position after a failure of the slide units to operate in a normal operational mode.
