Abstract
Ventilator for roof or other wall of a vehicle in which an opening in the wall is normally closed by a closure member and the closure member is connected to the wall at each of a pair of opposite sides by a pair of spring-and-link assemblies enabling the closure member to be opened to any of five positions and yieldably held by spring force in closed and each open position. By mounting inside the spring-and-link assemblies a trim ring and coacting screen plate mounted respectively on the wall and the closure member, the ventilator is adapted to screen against entry of bugs or other foreign matter in all open positions of the closure member.
