Abstract
An oscillating-mount split-hinge device is provided that is designed to be fitted on a heavy door having at least one panel mounted to pivot on a frame. The split-hinge device includes at least one lower split-hinge configured to support at least the bulk of the load of the panel of the door, and at least one upper split-hinge configured to form an anti-tilting holding point and axial guide of the panel. Each of the lower split-hinge and the upper split-hinge includes a stationary split-hinge part integrated with the frame, and a movable split-hinge part integrated with the flap. Each of the lower split-hinge and the upper split-hinge also includes a pivoting shaft integrated with one of the frame and the panel, the pivoting shaft being configured to enable rotatably guiding the movable split-hinge part relative to the stationary split-hinge part around said pivoting shaft.
