  • Publication number: 20080139101
    Abstract: A venting arrangement that includes a lid pivotally attached to a frame. An operating mechanism moves the lid between an open and closed position and attaches to a guide associated with the lid. The lid may be formed as a single, integral piece, including a portion for attaching the lid to the frame and the guide. The operating mechanism may include a engagement portion that attaches to the guide that is designed with geometry that creates a surface area contact between the mechanism and guide. The engagement portion may include a surface that engages one or more surfaces on the guide, which extend substantially parallel to the engagement portion surface. The arrangement may also include a feature that resists movement of the lid from a set position or that limits the travel of the mechanism at specific points along the mechanism's operational range.
