Apparatus for opening a door of a climatic test cabinet, an incubator, an environmental simulation chamber or a freezer or the like

---

Abstract

---

An apparatus for opening a door of a climatic test cabinet, an incubator, an environmental simulation chamber or a freezer is suitable for unlocking the door when the door is closed and locked and for transferring it to an open position. The force for opening the door need no longer be applied by the user himself operating lever mechanisms and transferring the door to an open position, but instead the force for opening the door may be applied by the apparatus.
