Klappenhalter

English translation: flap holder

German to English translations [PRO]
Tech/Engineering - Manufacturing / part of a check valve/Bestandteil einer Rückschlagarmatur
German term or phrase: Klappenhalter
A Klappenhalter is mentioned in a list of the components of a non-return/check valve. Unfortunately, I can´t find any suitable translation in the Internet. The check valve is used in transporting fluid media.

Thank you for your ideas and wisdom.

Explanation:
I Googled "non-return valve" and "flap holder", which was a guess and found several hits. My confidence level is Medium. This is just to start the ball rolling.

Notes to answerer
Asker: Yeah, this is the literal translation, but I have no evidence that it is the usual industry-specific term for the component.
