  • the bearing assembly 1, 1' of this embodiment of the panic bar device 100 is configured for being positioned with the same orientation regardless of whether it is arranged on the first side or on the second side of the door 101. Consequently, the person in charge of fixing the bearing assembly 1, 1' to the door 101 does not have to take into account whether the bearing assembly 1, 1' is to be fixed on the first side or on the second side of the door 101, given that the bearing assembly 1, 1' does not need to rotate or change its position depending on the side of the door 101 in which it is to be fixed.
  • the lock actuating element 31 is arranged centered between the two side plates 13, 13', the projection 32 of said lock actuating element 31 being arranged close to the first side plate 13 when said lock actuating element 31 is arranged in the first standby position, said projection 32 being arranged close to the second side plate 13' when said lock actuating element 31 is arranged in the second standby position, the pushing element 41 being arranged close to the first side plate 13, and the additional pushing element 41' being arranged close to the second side plate 13'.
  • the pushing element 41 and the additional pushing element 41' of this embodiment of the panic bar device 100 are arranged outside a demarcated area between the two side plates 13, 13', as observed in Figure 13 .
  • the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 13' are arranged symmetrically with respect to a plane of symmetry parallel to the first side plate 13 and to the second side plate 13', said plane of symmetry being situated at the same distance from both side plates 13, 13'. Furthermore, the axis on which the lock actuating element 31 rotates, which axis is perpendicular to the base plate 12, is contained in said plane of symmetry.
  • the bearing assembly 1, 1' of this embodiment of the panic bar device 100 comprises a calibrating element 51 configured for being coupled to the two side plates 13, 13' so that both side plates 13, 13' remain parallel to one another and perpendicular to the base plate 12. Since the calibrating element 51 is configured for keeping the first side plate 13 and the second side plate 13' parallel to one another, it prevents the occurrence of friction and accordingly friction between the pushing element 41 and the first side plate 13, and between the additional pushing element 41' and the second side plate 13' when the bar 3 is pushed, and accordingly, the pushing element 41 and the additional pushing element 41' rotate.
  • the calibrating element 51 of this embodiment comprises a U-shaped projection 52 at each of its ends, each projection 52 comprising two bars 54 facing and attached to one another by means of an additional bar 56, and a gap 53 between both bars.
  • Each side plate 13, 13' comprises a through bore 15, 15', such that the calibrating element 51 is introduced through both through bores 15, 15' and slides in until the side plates 13, 13' abut with the additional bar 56, such that each of the side plates 13, 13' is housed in the gap 53 between both bars 54 of each U-shaped projection 52, the calibrating element 51 thus being coupled to both side plates 13, 13'.
  • Figure 3 shows the calibrating element 51
  • Figure 6 shows the calibrating element 51 coupled to the two side plates 13, 13'.
  • the bearing assembly of this embodiment of the panic bar device 100 comprises a sleeve 24 that is coaxial and external with respect to the rotating shaft 21, and a spring 61 arranged around the sleeve 24.
  • the spring 61 is configured for returning the panic bar device 100 to the standby state.
  • the calibrating element 51 comprises a projection 55 on which the spring 61 is held in place the spring 61 remaining tensioned, such that the calibrating element 51 is fixed to the side plates 13, 13' by the action of the spring 61.
  • one of the ends of the spring 61 is fixed to the pushing element 41, and the other end of the spring 61 is fixed to the additional pushing element 41', such that when the pushing element 41 and the additional pushing element 41' rotate because the bar 3 of the panic device 100 has been pushed, the spring 61 is subjected to a torsional force, such that when said torsional force disappears because the bar 3 is no longer being pushed, the spring 61 returns the panic bar device 100 to the standby state.
  • the spring 61 is secured to the projection 55 of the calibrating element 51, thus pushing the calibrating element 51 towards the side plates 13, 13' such that the additional bar 56 of each U-shaped projection 52 abuts with the side plates 13, 13'.
