摘要

The outer covering flap (1) for a vehicle lock, with an emblem on its outer surface, swings on an axis (3) parallel to the flap plane. When the flap is swung out, it forms a handle for the trunk lid (5). An integrated switch (4), as a contact sensor, is activated to lock and unlock the trunk lid when the flap is operated. The flap is held by a spring (6) in the closed position in the lock (2), and can be held in the open position for the insertion of a key into the lock.
