This disclosed device need accurately be adjusted these springs, so that accurately there is balanced elastic force on the off-position of the qualification of closing flap.

Therefore, these springs that act on toward each other can not change mistake or damage when mounted, perhaps can install.In addition, owing to using a plurality of springs to increase the installation complexity.

Summary of the invention

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of closing flap arrangement that starts described type, it constitutes simply with less part and is suitable for assembling, and can be reliably and accurately be positioned at its off-position.

This purpose realizes in this wise according to the present invention, promptly on closing flap, be parallel to pivot center protuberance is set, this protuberance can be by closing flap rotation move being concentric with on the circular orbit of pivot center, and the spring by bias voltage applies active force transverse to pivot center, wherein closing flap is in the closed position when spring is the most lax, and increases the loading of pressure ground by protuberance when closing flap deflection goes out off-position.

In addition, protuberance preferably constitutes and forms the portion that extends axially of the biasing of rotating gudgeon integratedly with the rotation gudgeon.

Because one or more protuberances are only by a spring-loaded, so reduced installation complexity and parts expense.

Limit off-position like this, promptly one or more protuberances turn to a position on its annular movement track, and on this position, protuberance is loaded by the minimum elastic force of spring.Always no matter on which rotation direction, produce the increase that all causes elastic force, thereby when closing flap is not applied to active force, turns to its place of closing to this being forced to property of closing flap and remain there from off-position.

Also avoided simultaneously on fixing block, producing the bump of noise, because do not need this block of closing the place that is used to limit.

Because occupy off-position and do not rely on the power of elastic force, be unnecessary so keep the trickle power deviation of spring.

If the rotation gudgeon is arranged on rotationally to have and inserts on flashboard fixed frame mouth, that can be connected with housing, assembly can be suitable for the installation in advance of assembling ground so.

In simple design, spring can be a leaf spring that end regions is provided with regularly, being resisted against on the protuberance freely of this leaf spring another end regions bias voltage.

In addition, spring end regions can be arranged on housing or the flashboard fixed frame regularly.

The possibility of the leaf spring design that a kind of expense is cheap is that leaf spring is made of metal.

Equally, when leaf spring was made of plastics, this also was favourable.

Housing or flashboard fixed frame can be working of plastics, particularly plastic injection piece.

Seal when being arranged on housing or the flashboard fixed frame regularly by pressure injection-moulded when leaf spring, especially can reduce assembly work.

The further reduction that assembly fee is used can be achieved like this, and promptly leaf spring is the parts that are ejected on housing or the flashboard fixed frame.

If the bearing dimple is in contrast to the open bearing dimple of the direction of elastic force, rotate the bottom that gudgeon can be resisted against the bearing dimple by one or more spring-loaded, so for closing flap is installed, rotates gudgeon and can only be inserted in the open bearing dimple.Utilize spring to realize rotating gudgeon fixing in the bearing dimple.

When particularly on two protuberances, all spring being set, rotating gudgeon and always can keep non-loosening ground (klapperfrei) to be resisted against on the bottom of bearing dimple.

Locking especially reliably on off-position realizes that in this wise promptly protuberance has flat stress surface, and spring is resisted against on this stress surface, and wherein on the off-position of closing flap, stress surface extends perpendicular to the force direction of spring.
