Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kraftwagentürscharnier, umfassend zwei vermittels eines Scharnierstifts (3) gelenkig untereinander verbundene, wechselweise an einem der beiden Türanordnungsteile Tür und Türsäule anschlagbare Scharnierhälften (1, 2), und einen Türfeststeller, der wenigstens ein gegen die eine Scharnierhälfte (2) abgestütztes, federbelastetes Eingriffsteil (10) sowie wenigstens ein diesem (10) zugeordnetes, gegen die andere Scharnierhälfte (1) abgestütztes Brems- oder Halteteil umfaßt, wobei der Türfeststeller insgesamt aus einem drehsicher mit einem der Türanordnungsteile verbundenen Zylindergehäuse (6) und einem im Zylindergehäuse (6) aufgenommenen, drehsicher mit den anderen Türanordnungsteil verbundenen Zylinderkern (7) sowie wenigstens einem im einen Teil, Zylindergehäuse (6) oder Zylinderkern (7), radial verstellbar angeordneten Eingriffsteil (10) besteht, wobei der Zylinderkern (7) mit wenigstens einer radial gerichteten, Brems- und Halteteile (8, 16) bildenden Vertiefung versehen ist. Eine Festellmöglichkeit auf der dem Anfangs-Öffnungswinkel gegenüber um 180° versetzten Lage wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch ermöglicht, daß in dem Zylinderkern (7) in einem der wenigstens einen radial gerichteten Brems- und Halteteile (8, 16) bildenden Vertiefung gegenüberliegenden Bereich wenigstens eine axial verlaufende und radial gerichtete Nut (17) vorgesehen ist.
