So am I understanding this thread correctly, that if I have an aluminum pivot bar having a pin & a spring at one end, and a steel plate at other end, if my pin engages a bungee powered arm, locking it in place, and uses a spring around the pin that's pushing to disengage it, then if my electromagnet's grip on the steel plate on opposite end of aluminum pivot bar prevents spring from disengaging pin at other end of aluminum bar until the electromagnet is de-energized, allowing bar to now pivot from the spring's force, and disengaging the pin --- is this a violation?
The electromagnet merely releases its grip on a steel plate, allowing the previously overpowered weaker SPRING to now actuate the release of the pin. What element is the real actuator here ? Is it the electromagnet, or is it the spring?
Is it that an electromagnet MOVING an element is forbidden, but RELEASING ITS GRIP on an element is allowed?
