uppfällningar

Uppfällningar is a Swedish term that generally refers to the act of folding something upwards, or a flap or fold that is designed to be lifted. In a practical context, it can describe various mechanisms or features.

One common application is in furniture design. For instance, a table might have an uppfällning, which is a foldable leaf or extension that can be raised to increase the surface area. Similarly, some chairs or benches may incorporate uppfällningar for seating or back support that can be folded away when not in use, saving space.

In the realm of vehicles, uppfällningar can refer to foldable parts such as a rear spoiler that is raised for aerodynamic purposes, or a compartment lid that lifts upwards. In machinery, it might describe a guard or cover that can be flipped open to allow access to internal components for maintenance or repair.

The concept also extends to smaller items. A wallet or purse might feature an uppfällning for organizing cards or cash. In the context of packaging, an uppfällning could be a lid or flap that is designed to be opened by lifting. The key characteristic is the upward or outward motion of a folded element to reveal or access something beneath or behind it, or to extend a surface.
