Felnyíló

Felnyíló is a Hungarian term that translates to "flip-top" or "clamshell" in English. It generally refers to a type of opening mechanism where a lid or cover pivots upwards from a hinge, revealing an interior compartment. This design is commonly found in various objects to provide easy access while securing the contents.

Examples of items utilizing a felnyíló mechanism include storage boxes, car glove compartments, certain types of briefcases, and some electronic device casings. The primary advantage of this design is its straightforward operation; the lid is simply lifted to open and pushed down to close. This allows for quick access to stored items or components.

The felnyíló mechanism is characterized by its pivot point, typically a hinge, which allows the lid to rotate through a specific arc. The lid can be designed to stay open on its own or may require a prop or support to remain in the open position. Conversely, it can be designed to close under its own weight or be held shut by a latch or clasp. The simplicity and reliability of this opening style have made it a popular choice in product design across many industries.
