Abstract
A closure device for the gas-tight closing of the input opening of a sample chamber of an x-ray analysis apparatus includes a slider having a closure plate and a carriage that is configured to be displaced in a lateral movement over the input opening on a linear guide arranged on a baseplate connected fixedly to the sample chamber. The closure plate is connected in an articulated manner to the carriage via deflecting elements that, upon butting against end stops connected rigidly to the baseplate, deflect the lateral movement of the carriage into a movement perpendicular thereto to press the closure plate over the input opening. A drive motor connected to the carriage via a drive means displaces the slider to provide the lateral movement on the linear guide.
