More Information
Summary:The lock has a torsion spring which is mounted on one wing of a door hinge. The spring has a loading arm which projects above the level of the hinge, and which is parallel to the hinge axis. At least three reaction bearing rollers (7) are arranged one under another on a transverse support (5) on the other hinge wing (1), at a distance from the hinge axis. They have equal cross sections which are heart-shaped over at least part of their height, so as to engage with the loading arm in order to define at least one open position of the door. The bearing axles (6) of the rollers are arranged on the support with a smaller separation than the largest cross sectional diameter of the rollers.
