20230067559 · 2023-03-02 · ·

An air vent that enables both the adjustment by a knob and the adjustment by an external adjuster by applying an independent knob that is not mechanically connected to the air vent, along with a method for controlling the same, is disclosed. The air vent includes: a wind direction adjustment mechanism configured to adjust a wind direction of a wind discharged from the air vent; an actuator configured to drive the wind direction adjustment mechanism; a knob configured to control the actuator to adjust the wind direction adjustment mechanism; and a position sensor configured to detect a position of the wind direction adjustment mechanism. The knob is electrically connected to the actuator and is not mechanically connected to the wind direction adjustment mechanism.

Air vent

An air vent for ventilating a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle. So as to laterally deflect an air current through the air vent, the air vent includes two louvers including non-pivotable blades, which are oriented obliquely to a flow-through direction through the air vent and which can be moved obliquely to the flow-through direction into an air channel of the air vent.

Vehicle register assembly

A vehicle register assembly includes a register duct that has an end opening and the register duct directs air. A housing is coupled to the register duct proximate the end opening. A barrel is disposed within the housing and defines an upstream aperture and a downstream aperture. A plurality of vanes includes individual vanes and the individual vanes extend in a first direction between first opposing sides of the barrel. A linking vane is coupled to each of the individual vanes and extends between second opposing sides of the barrel. The linking vane includes a guide body that extends upstream from the plurality of vanes.

Wind direction adjustment device

Wind direction adjustment device (10) includes cylindrical case body (11) having flow path (22) therein, and valve (14) that is movably disposed in case body (11) and that opens and closes flow path (22). Valve (14) includes base material (61) supported by case body (11). Valve (14) is formed of a member that is softer than base material (61), and includes soft portion (62) capable of elastically contacting case body (11) in a state in which flow path (22) is closed by valve (14). Valve 14 includes deformation suppressing portions (63) that suppresses deformation of soft portion (62) caused by contact of soft portion (62) with case body (11). Deformation suppressing portions (63) are disposed at positions at which deformation suppressing portions (63) are not in contact with case body (11) in a state in which flow path (22) is closed by valve (14).

Compact coanda effect ventilation device for motor vehicle incorporating a control module provided with a control panel

A ventilation device includes at least one aerator having a channel capable of conveying an air flow from an inlet opening to an outlet opening, a hollow air guiding core housed in the channel and defining two air guiding surfaces delimiting, with this channel, two flow paths capable of transporting, respectively, to the outlet opening, first and second quantities of air from the inlet opening, a fin mounted so as to be able to pivot upstream from the core and arranged so as to make it possible to adjust the ratio between the first and second quantities of air, depending on the position of same, and a control module incorporated at least partially into the core of at least the aerator and having a control panel constituted at least partially by a downstream end wall of the core and being provided with a control device.

Air vent for a vehicle

An air vent for a vehicle includes a housing with an air inlet, an air outlet, and an air channel between the air inlet and the air outlet; at least one rigid air directing body arranged within the air channel; and an actuator arranged within the housing in order to act on the rigid air-directing body to determine a direction of an air stream exiting the air outlet, where the actuator includes a shape memory alloy element, and the rigid air-directing body is pivotably arranged within the housing by being affixed to a first axis which runs parallel to a second axis to which the actuator is affixed to be pivotably arranged within the housing.

SLIM AIR VENT FOR VEHICLE

In a slim air vent apparatus for a vehicle, since an external wing rotating in an up and down direction is provided per duct, the air vent may be configured to be compact and slim, and since both an internal wing and the external wing are located to be inserted inside the duct, a hidden feeling may be provided and an appearance may be improved. Furthermore, since a function is realized by manually operating a single knob located in the center portion of the external wing by a user, convenience of operation may be improved, costs may be reduced, and thus, the slim air vent apparatus for a vehicle may be universally applied.

SLIM AIR VENT FOR VEHICLE

A slim air vent apparatus for a vehicle may include an internal wing, an external wing, and a support wing that are disposed and hidden inside a duct to realize a compact and slim air vent apparatus and to improve the appearance by hiding the components. Since the air vent is operated to fulfil the functions thereof by manual manipulation of a single knob, positioned at the center portion of the external wing, by a user, it is possible to improve the convenience in manipulation of a user and to reduce manufacturing costs, and the air vent is universally applicable to various kinds of vehicles.

Air diffuser
11619418 · 2023-04-04 · ·

An air register can control airflow direction and intensity. The air register includes an attachment mechanism that is configured to attach to a surface. The air register further includes a plurality of diffuser discs attached to the attachment mechanism and configured so that they may be manually moved from a closed configuration to an open configuration. The diffuser discs include a plurality of apertures that allow air to flow therethrough. In the closed configuration, the diffuser discs are arranged to cover the apertures so that air cannot flow therethrough. In the open configuration, the plurality of diffuser discs are spaced apart to allow air to flow through the apertures. Further, the diffuser discs can be tilted to control airflow direction.
