1. A system for controlling movement of a payload, the system comprising:
a stopper configured to be in a first position in a first mode of operation and in a second position in a second mode of operation, wherein the stopper, in the first position, allows movement of the payload in a first direction, wherein the stopper, in the second position, impedes the movement of the payload in the first direction;
a plurality of linkages, the plurality of linkages comprising a pivot;
a restoring device configured to apply a restoring force to the pivot, wherein application of the restoring force to the pivot causes the pivot to engage with an actuation device; and
the actuation device configured to apply a transition force to the pivot, wherein application of the transition force causes the stopper, via the plurality of linkages, to transition from the first position to the second position,
wherein application of an overload force in a second direction to the stopper causes the stopper to transition from the second position to the first position.
