Abstract:
The present invention comprises an air flap arrangement (10) for a motor vehicle, comprising at least one air flap (16), an air flap carrier (12), on which the at least one air flap (16) is mounted rotatably about an air flap rotational axis (L), and a rotary drive (14), of which the torque-delivering drive shaft (32) is coupled to the at least one air flap (16) in a torque-transmitting manner, wherein a rotation angle limiting device is provided, which has a stop (38) secured to the air flap carrier and which has a counter-stop (28) that can be rotated with the at least one air flap (16), wherein the stop (38) and counter-stop (28), in a relative end position of the at least one air flap (16), are configured for contact engagement with one another, wherein the counter-stop (28) is configured on a counter-stop component (26) and an air flap face formation (20) is configured on an air flap component (18) configured separately from the counter-stop component (26), the counter-stop component (26) being formed of a material, which has a higher tensile strength than the material of the air flap component (18).
