    Patent number: 5913505
    Abstract: In order to ensure transmission of low amplitude back-and-forth movements between, for example, the non-aligned control member (46) of an actuator (42) and the sealing flap (34) of a valve, a lever (30) mounted on a body (10) by means of a flexible strip (32) is used. Said flexible strip lies in the longitudinal axis of the lever (30) and is fastened inside a tubular section (22) of the body (10) at two diametrically opposed points. The sealing flap (34) is fitted to one end of the lever (30) and the control member (46) actuates the other end of the lever.
