UNDULATING GATE
A flap gate includes a door body and a flap ancillary part. When the door body is in its down position, a movable end portion of the door body is located forward of a supported end portion. The door body changes its position between the down position and a maximum up position. The flap ancillary part applies tilt-up moment to the door body only when the door body is located in a position between the down position and a first position. The flap ancillary part also applies tilt-down moment to the door body only when the door body is located in a position between the maximum up position and a second position. This simplifies the structure of the flap gate that can speedily start to tilt up when water flows in and that can early start to tilt down when the water level has started to drop.
