A control mechanism for a door hinged on a door frame operative to hold said door in an open position comprising a first and a second longitudinal bar each having a pair of ends, hinge means joining together one of the ends of each of said bars with the other ends of said bars being hinged, respectively, to said door and to said frame, said hinge means comprising a hinge pin affixed to said first bar, at least one recess formed in said hinge pin, a locking element on said second bar adapted to engage within said recess and spring means urging said locking element into engagement with said recess, at least one of said longitudinal bars being formed in two sections which are connected together by means of a double ended adjusting screw having oppositely directed threads with check nuts being provided to enable affixation in a desired position of said two sections relative to each other.
A control mechanism for a door hinged on a door frame operative to hold said door in an open position comprising:
- a first and a second longitudinal bar each having a pair of ends;
- a hinge assembly joining together one of the ends of each of said bars with the other ends of said bars being hinged, respectively, to said door and to said frame;
- said hinge assembly comprising a hinge pin formed with at least one locking recess detachably fastened to said first bar in one of a plurality of different angular positions so as to be secured against rotation relative thereto, a locking element on said second bar adapted to engage within said recess, spring means urging said locking element into engagement with said recess, a cap member fastened to said first bar and secured against rotation relative thereto in each of said different angular positions, said hinge pin being fastened to said cap member so as to be non-rotatable relative thereto, internal threads formed in said hinge pin, a first screw extending through said cap member and engaging into said internal threads securing said cap member to said first bar and a second screw engaging into said internal threads for connecting said second bar with said hinge assembly.
