Door handle coupler

A coupler for a disconnect switch mounted within an enclosure, the coupler comprising:

• an upper sleeve configured to receive a first end of a shaft, wherein:
• the upper sleeve includes a plurality of orientation channels, and
• a second end of the shaft is configured to be connected to a door activator mounted on a door of the enclosure;
• a lower sleeve configured to be mounted to a surface of the disconnect switch, wherein the upper sleeve is rotatably mounted to the lower sleeve;
• and
• a locking lever pivotally mounted to the lower sleeve, wherein:
• the locking lever is pivotally moved between a first position and a second position,
• the locking lever includes an upper segment,
• the upper segment is configured to be inserted into one of the plurality of orientation channels when the locking lever is in the first position, and
• the upper segment is configured to be removed from each of the plurality of orientation channels when the locking lever is in the second position.

A coupler for a disconnect switch mounted within an enclosure, the coupler comprising:

• a first member configured to directly mount to the disconnect switch;
• a second member configured to receive a first end of a shaft, wherein:
• a second end of the shaft is configured to be connected to a door activator mounted on a door of the enclosure, and
• the second member is configured to receive a rotational force applied to the door activator and transferred from the door activator to the second member via the shaft when the shaft is connected between the door activator and the second member;
• and
• a force transfer member selectively connected between the first member and the second member, wherein:
• the force transfer member is configured to transfer the rotational force from the second member to the first member when connected between the first member and the second member,
• the force transfer member does not transfer the rotational force from the second member to the first member when not connected between the first member and the second member,
• the force transfer member includes a lock out opening accessible when the force transfer member is not connected between the first and second members, and
• the lock out opening is configured to receive a lock hasp extending through the lock out opening to prevent the force transfer member from being connected between the first and second members.
