Abstract

The invention relates to a pressing arrangement for a cover, in particular in a laboratory thermostat, having at least: a first component disposed to exert an excitation force, a second component, in particular a plate component disposed to exert a pressing force Fz in at least one target position, a transmission device disposed for transmitting force from the first component to the second component, characterized in that the transmission device comprises a transmission component disposed to be driven by the first component and to drive the second component, and the transmission device comprises at least one elastic tensioning member disposed to be driven by the first component so as to change its tension and to drive the transmission component, and the transmission device or the transmission component causes the setting of the pressing force Fz in dependence on the target position. The invention further relates to a corresponding method for pressuring.
