A door arrester, in particular for a door of a motor vehicle, includes a door retainer rod () which can be mounted on either one of the door () or the body () so as to be pivotable and has a first side () with profiling () formed on the first side (); and a first braking element which can be arranged on the other of the door () or the body () and in sections bears against the first side () of the door retainer rod () under the effect of a preload, and which, with the profiling () of the first side (), defines at least one retaining position. The first braking element has a central boring, the door retainer rod () has an elongate through-hole (), a guide pin () passes through the central boring and the through-hole (), and the guide pin () permits an axial movement of the first braking element along the guide pin ().

Door arrester

A retainer housing, in particular for a door check (), includes a first housing part () with a cavity () for receiving a brake body () and a spring system () of a door check (). The first housing part () has a first end () and a second end (), and a closing piece () which is situated on one of the first end () and second end () of the housing part. The closing piece () has an upper face () and a lower face (). Multiple elevations () are arranged on the lower face () of the closing piece (), concentrically around a centre point of the lower face (). The elevations () have a stop face () for a spring system () of a door check ().

Retainer housing for a door check

The door check includes a retaining bar () which can be connected to one of the two door assembly parts, i.e. the door () or the door frame (), and a retaining housing () which can be connected to the other door assembly part. In order to design a door check that allows a vehicle door to be reliably and safely blocked in an automated manner, a threaded bar () can be accommodated in an axially movable fashion in a cavity of the retaining bar ().
