| 20110306223 | CLOSURE DEVICE FOR AN ELECTRICAL PLUG-IN COUPLING MEANS ARRANGED ON A MOTOR VEHICLE OR A CHARGING STATION - A closure device for an electrical plug-in coupling means arranged on a motor vehicle or a charging station. A locking means is provided for locking the plug coupled to the plug-in coupling means. The locking means can be operated via a gear mechanism between the drive motor and the closure flap. The locking means comprises a locking element which, when the closure flap is transferred from an intermediate open position, in which the plug can be coupled to the plug-in coupling means, into the final open position, can be brought into a locked position which prevents the removal of the plug from the plug-in coupling means. | 12-15-2011 |
