Abstract: The invention relates to a device for pivotably holding a wing flap. The device comprises a flat four-bar linkage comprising two pivotably mounted pivoting arms and two pull arms fastened in parallel in an articulated manner to the pivoting arms, a fastening element for applying the wing flap being applied to the pull arms. The invention further comprises elastic means for damping the pivoting movement, which engage with the four-bar linkage, and a damper device for damping the pivoting movement in the region of two end positions, with a linear pressure damper and a first and a second transmission element. The pressure damper cooperates, on a first side of the pressure damper, via the first transmission element, with a first of the two pivoting arms in the region of a first of the two end positions. Furthermore, the pressure damper cooperates, on a second side of the pressure damper, via the second transmission element, with a second of the two pivoting arms in the region of a second of the two end positions.
