Abstract

An axis positioning mechanism serving as a rotation bearing of a flap gate includes a housing disposed at the bottom of an opening, a first rotating plate rotationally supported by the housing via a first shaft, a second rotating plate rotationally supported by the housing via a second shaft having a different axis from the first shaft, and a synchronizing rod rotationally connected to the rotating plates so as to synchronize the rotations of the rotating plates. The axis positioning mechanism further includes connecting members rotationally connecting a door base and the rotating plates with different axes. The door is laid flat with a pivot at a higher position than the axes.
