Default HELP! Pendulous Vanes

Does anybody know of a website where I could find out how these things work? I am supposed to know this for an instrument check ride, but I can't find any info on them. I looked in the Instrument Flying Handbook and the most detail it goes into is that the AI uses an "erecting mechanism." Thanks!

Doh! Google came up with some strange websites... They weren't really what I was looking for or wanted to see. I'll try "vanes" thanks!

I shudder to think of what a Google search for "Pendulous vein erecting mechanism" would return.
