Abstract:
A cover for closing an opening formed in a wall comprising:a supporting shape for the cover on the inside of the wall near the opening which makes it possible to turn the cover inserted into the opening between a closed position wherein the cover closes the opening, and a tilted position about a tilt axis wherein the cover is tilted in relation to its closed position and is at least one of removable at the outside of the wall from the opening and is insertable into the opening; said cover having a wall section having a back and a front, wherein said all section is of a shape substantially complementary to said opening and substantially fills said latter in the closed position, wherein said wall section back faces away from a wall exterior in the closed, position and at least one lug which protrudes substantially radially, with respect to the said tilt axis, beyond a margin of said wall section, and in the closed position is engaged behind a margin of said opening, said wall section having on said back at least one catch opposite said at least one lug, which project from the back with respect to the tilt axis substantially in the direction rotation, and in the closed position is snapped onto a catch shape, while in the closed state, an application of pressure to a front side of the wall section, facing away from said back, in an area lying opposite said at least one catch with respect to the tilt axis, results in the disengagement of the at least one catch from the catch shape and results in the turning of the cover out of its closed position to its tilted position, said wall section comprising on said back at least a one first ramp and at least one second ramp, wherein, when the cover is turned from the tilted position to the closed position, the at least one first ramp cooperates with a first wall mounted guide means such that the cover assumes in the closed position a predetermined position relative to the wall, and when the cover turns from the closed position to the tilted position, said at least one second ramp cooperates with a wall mounted second guide such that the cover in the tilted position assumes a predetermined position relative to the wall.
