  • Patent number: 9643482
    Abstract: An active air flap is provided. The active air flap includes a plurality of flaps and an elastic member bonding the plurality of flaps to form a preset angle with respect to each other. The elastic member is insert-molded between the respective flaps and a roller is coupled to the top of the active air flap with a connection member and the active air flap is wound there around by a restoring force of the elastic member. Additionally, a support bracket that rotatably supports the roller through pins protrudes from a plurality of ends of the roller, and has an aperture formed therein and the active air flap is configured to open or close the aperture.
