ABSTRACT:
A lid support releasably locks a casket lid in an open position relative to a casket body. A curved arm with a curved slot is pivotably connected at one end to the lid and the other end having a circular opening at the adjacent end of the slot. A follower has a stem disposed in the slot and is movable therein as the lid is moved between its open and closed position. A tubular boss coupled with the stem is adapted to enter the circular opening under the influence of a spring to releasably lock the lid in its open position. Upon depressing the stem against the bias of the spring, the boss is adapted to be withdrawn from the opening and the stem is adapted to enter the slot to permit the lid to be moved to its closed position.
