ABSTRACT:
A flap type vehicle ventilation valve improves sealing, while still preventing flap blowthrough, by insetting the surface of the blowthrough prevention valves from the plane of the vent opening. Therefore, under normal negative pressure, the flap can bulge inwardly from the plane of the vent opening, but not hit the webs, so that puckering of the flap and the consequent backflow leakage is prevented. The webs still hit the flap in response to high negative pressures, to avoid flap blowthrough.
