Abstract
A door-holding device for vehicle doors includes a door-holding rod which is swivelably attached to a structural door component. The door-holding rod extends with its other end through a holder housing mounted on another structural door component. The door-holding rod has along its length increased thickness portions which protrude outwardly transversely of the longitudinal direction of the door-holding rod. The door-holding rod is freely swivelably mounted on a carrier member with a clinch bolt or screw bolt. The carrier member is attached to one of the structural door components. A spring load is applied to the door-holding rod in axial direction of the swivel bearing of the door-holding rod. The spring rests against a head of the bolt. The bolt is mounted secured against rotation in an opening of the carrier member. The door-holding rod is supported by a conical clutch-type, axially and radially acting members on a shaft portion having smooth running surfaces of the bolt forming the axis of the swivel bearing, wherein the clutch type members provide a support which is automatically centering and free of play.
