ABSTRACT:
A door hinge assembly combined with a door holding device particularly for motor vehicles has a first and a second hinge member mounting the door for swinging movement between an open and a closed position, a torsion bar spring supported at one of the hinge members and having a load arm projecting over the height of the hinge member and directed parallel to the hinge axis and a pair of abutment rollers rotatively displaced against a spring disc which acts as a brake at the other of the hinge members located a distance from the hinge axis. The abutment rollers operate in cooperation with the load arm of the torsion bar to form a catch device for holding the door at least in the open position and the abutment rollers are formed with different diameters along their circumference and they are rotatably mounted about bearing axes, respectively, which are arranged spaced a distance from each other, which distance is less than the dimension of the larger diameter.
