Time to get the old hinge replaced. I bet not many new this old style existed. The yellow lever would be operated manually to "lock" the egg open it. It was locked when fully open by a small spring. Then release the pressure and move the handle to close it up. Egg was bought a few years ago on Craig's list by my Dad.
