Abstract (en)

Due to their excentric axes (18 and 22) the connecting rod (24) and door part (20) move towards each other when the door par opened and vice versa in the closing operation. The respective arrester faces (44,46) facing each other engage when the door ope to produce a force of adhesion opposed to the force of the spring (30) so the door has to be closed into the upright position by hand. The arrester faces (44,46) have latching sectors engaging in pawl fashion when the door is opened crossways. The arrester (42) of the connecting rod (24) is on a resilient element (42) designed to yield in the transverse door opening movement. The do part (20) has a latching sector (50) engaged by the face of the rod latching sector in the open setting only.
