Abstract (en)
A closure for a door opening or window opening (1) comprises a horizontally extending upper guide track (2), a horizontally extending lower guide track (3), a stationary frame (4) part extending vertically between corresponding first ends of the guide tracks (2,3), a movable frame part (5) which extends vertically between said guide tracks (2,3) and which is movable between a first position adjacent the stationary frame part (4) and a second position near the second ends of the guide tracks (2,3), a foldable screen (6) attached to and extending between the stationary frame part (4) and movable frame part (5), and guiding means (20) for guiding movement of the screen (6) and/or movable frame part (5) during closing and opening of the closure (1). A gravity-operated mass (9) is movable within the stationary frame part (4) and by pull means (10) is connected to the movable frame part (5) in such a manner that the mass (9) preloads said movable frame part (5) for moving it in a direction towards its second position. In an embodiment the guiding means (20) may comprise an upper chain (7) and a lower chain (8), which in the first position of the movable frame part (5) each are housed partly in said movable frame part (5) and partly in the stationary frame part (4), and the closure (1) further comprises an auxiliary gravity-operated mass (18) connected to the end of the lower chain part (8) housed in the stationary frame part (4).
