Abstract
A suspension device for a door leaf of a swing out sliding door of a vehicle comprising a horizontal, fixed suspending member, a frame movable along the fixed suspending member and a swing arm connected to the frame for movement therewith. The swing arm is pivotably connected to the frame by a first hinge and the door leaf is connected by a second hinge to the swing arm. A roller is connected to the swing arm and is rollably supported in a fixed rail and a guide arm pivotably connected to the door leaf carries a third hinge pivotably connecting the guide arm to the frame. The fixed rail includes a curved end portion which controls movement of the roller to cause the door leaf to displace radially as the roller travels to and from the curved end portion.
