Abstract
A closure device for a vacuum closure of at least one opening in a wall having a valve place, at least one piston-cylinder unit, at least one carrier unit, at least one cylinder bore hole, at least two sealing rings, and a line. The valve plate is associated with an opening and is displaceable between an open position in which it releases the opening, a position in which it covers the opening but is raised from the wall and a closed position in which it covers the opening and contacts the wall. The at least one piston-cylinder unit serves to displace the valve to the different positions and includes a pneumatically actuated piston. At least one carrier unit is connected to a piston rod which serves to displace the valve to the different positions.
