Aggregate toggling between deployed and folded position by deflection of a plate spring

A device (100) for pivotally holding an aggregate, the device (100) comprising:

• a housing (102);
• a cam structure (104) pivotally coupled to the housing (102) for pivotal movement about a pivot axis between a deployed position, in which the aggregate fixed to the cam structure (104) is operational, and a folded position, in which the aggregate is not operational;
• and
• a plate spring (106) configured in the housing (102) such that the cam structure (104) is in contact with the plate spring (106);
• and wherein the cam structure (104) is configured relative to the plate spring (106) such that, when the cam structure (104) is moved between the deployed position and the folded position, the cam structure (104) deflects the plate spring (106) to cause toggling of the aggregate between the deployed position and the folded position
• wherein, when the aggregate is moved about the pivot axis between the deployed position and the folded position, the cam structure (104) moves over the plate spring (106) between a first contact point (302-1) located towards a first end (106-1) of the plate spring (106) and second contact point (302-2) located towards a second end (106-2) of the plate spring (106), the first end (106-1) and the second end (106-2) of the plate spring (106) being two ends of the plate spring (106) along a length of the plate spring (106).
