Abstract (en)

A convection barrier (2) for a freezer (1) comprises a plurality of individual flaps (20) arranged one above the other in a manner such as to be capable of forming a closed curtain of individual flaps (20), with each individual flap (20) extending over a predetermined width corresponding at least to the width of the interior of the freezer and being pivotable (5) between a closed position and an open position so as to allow access to the interior of the freezer when the flap (20) is in the open position, and actuation means (24,240) attached to the individual flaps (20) for allowing an actuator (40.400) to engage the actuation means (24,240) of an individual flap (20) so as to pivot (5) the said flap (20) between the closed position and the open position.
