Zusammenfassung: | A one-way vent for installation in a panel aperture is described. The vent includes a frame made of a first material, and valve and seal members both made of a second material, which has a lower stiffness than the first material. The frame includes an outer wall for engaging a perimeter of the aperture, and a valve seat extending inwardly from the outer wall. The valve seat defines an opening through the frame. The valve member includes a flap support fixed against a portion of the valve seat, and a valve flap flexibly coupled to the flap support. The valve flap is moveable between a closed position resting on the valve seat to cover the opening, and an open position elevated from the valve seat to uncover the opening. The seal member is fixed against the outer wall of the frame and extends outwardly from the outer wall. |
