The invention relates to a flap (2) of a motor vehicle ventilation system, which is disposed in a housing (1) in the mounted state and controls the air supply to the interior of the vehicle along with a second flap (4). The flap (2) according to the invention comprises a pivot axis about which the same can be pivoted. At least one portion of the flap area (2′) is pivotable and/or flexible to the pivot axis or shaft (2″) and/or another portion of the flap (2) juxtaposing the pivot axis.

The invention claimed is: 1. A motor vehicle ventilation system, comprising at least an intake housing, a plenum chamber, one or more flow conduits and one or more control flaps for distributing the air to the flow conduits, and a flap (2) arranged to control the air supply to the interior of the v
The invention claimed is: 1. A motor vehicle ventilation system, comprising at least an intake housing, a plenum chamber, one or more flow conduits and one or more control flaps for distributing the air to the flow conduits, and a flap (2) arranged to control the air supply to the interior of the vehicle together with a second flap (4), said flap (2) comprising a shaft (2″), on which said entire flap (2) is pivotable, a flap surface (2′) and a sealing portion (13), characterized in that at least a first portion of the flap surface (2′) is pivotable relative to the shaft (2″) and/or another portion of the flap surface on the opposite side of the shaft (2″), in that said sealing portion (13) surrounds at least a portion of the peripheral edge of said pivotable first portion of said flap surface (2′), and in that pivoting at least the first portion of the flap surface (2′) relative to the shaft (2″) and/or the other portion of the flap surface on the opposite side of the shaft (2″) generates a return spring force, causing the flap to regain its original shape on load relief and further characterized in that pivoting occurs in a portion of the flap that is relatively proximal to the shaft (2″) and/or the other portion of the flap surface on the opposite side of the shaft (2″), which is configured more flexible than the remaining portion of the flap that is relatively distal from the shaft (2″) and/or the other portion of the flap surface on the opposite side of the shaft (2″), and wherein the return spring force is formed in the portion of the flap (2) that is configured more flexible than the remaining portion of the flap (2). 2. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the pivot axis of the flap surface (2′) is oriented parallel away from the shaft (2″) of the flap. 3. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that two portions of the flap surface (2′) are pivotable relative to the shaft (2″) of the flap, the two portions of the flap surface (2′) being arranged on differing sides of the shaft (2″). 4. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the flexible portion (2′″) is formed by a perforation (12′). 5. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the flexible portion (2′″) is formed by a kind of film-type hinge. 6. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the flexible portion (2′″) is formed by a softer, more flexible material than the substantially remaining portion of the flap surfaces (2′). 7. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the flexible portion (2′″) comprises a softer, more flexible material surrounding the material substantially forming the flap surfaces (2′). 8. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the flap surfaces (2′) are surrounded by a flexible edge (13). 9. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the flap (2) is produced by two-component injection molding from two different plastics materials having differing flexibility. 10. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, wherein the flap (2) is a recirculating air flap. 11. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 10, characterized in that the second flap is configured as a fresh air flap (4). 12. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 11, characterized in that the motor vehicle ventilation system comprises at least one of the following components: heat exchanger, heater, evaporator, filter, and temperature mixing flap. 13. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 11, characterized in that the recirculating air flap (2) and the fresh air flap (4) are coupled together such that the recirculating air flap (2) opens a recirculating air conduit (3) within the intake housing when the fresh air flap (4) closes a fresh air conduit (5) and such that the recirculating air flap (2) closes the recirculating air conduit (3) before the fresh air flap (4) fully opens the fresh air conduit (5). 14. The motor vehicle ventilation system as set forth in claim 1, characterized in that the motor vehicle ventilation system comprises at least one of the following components: heat exchanger, heater, evaporator, filter, and a temperature mixing flap.
