ABSTRACT:
Closure for selectively closing an opening in a wall, including a base element arranged to be affixed to the wall adjacent the opening therein. In one form, the closure includes an insert having a through opening and defining a recess adjacent the through opening. The insert is urged sealingly against the wall about the wall opening thereof, with the through opening of the insert being aligned with the wall opening. A control element is provided having a connecting portion swingably mounting the control element to the base element, a stopper portion adapted to be received in the insert opening when the control element is pivoted to a first, closed position, and a presser portion adapted to be engaged by a user's fingertip to pivot the control element to withdraw the stopper portion from the insert opening and dispose the presser portion within the recess in a second, open position of the control element. In a second form, the closure includes a base element adapted to be associated with a wall having an opening. A control element has a connecting portion swingably mounted to the base element, a stopper portion having a stopper adapted to be received in the wall opening when the control element is disposed in a first position, and a manipulating portion adapted to be engaged by a user's fingers to swing the control element to withdraw the stopper from the wall opening. The control element is integrally connected to the base element by a readily observable frangible connector, permitting withdrawal of the stopper from the opening only in the event the connecting structure is broken.
