  • Patent number: 6758505
    Abstract: A locking-mechanism control means having a push rod which controls the adjustment of door-mounted catches, it being possible for the catches to be locked in relation to the door frame, having a first and a second adjustable blocking device arranged in the door. It is further possible for said blocking devices to be adjusted in dependence on the door movement, and one of the blocking devices arresting the push rod in the open position when the door is open. A driver is provided on the push rod and can be coupled to a rod which executes a movement corresponding to the push rod in order for an arresting unit, which engages with the door in the closed state of the latter, to be displaced out of engagement with the door in the open position of the latter.
