Abstract
A door check device includes a first link member engaging structure including a first link member engaging member mounted to a first carrier, a second link member engaging structure including a second link member engaging member mounted to a second carrier, a housing, and an elongated link member. The first engaging structure and the second engaging structure are each constructed and arranged such that, when the link member is caused to undergo a yaw movement relative to the housing generally along a yaw plane that extends in both the transverse direction and the longitudinal extent of the link member, the first and second carriers and the first and second engaging members mounted thereto, respectively, are allowed to rotate relative to the housing along with the link member such that the first and second engaging members remain in transverse relation to the link member.
