Disclosed is a ventilation outlet including one or more flow directing elements arranged movably in a housing and with an actuating element mounted movably on the housing with an actuating knob for actuating at least one flow directing element for controlling a ventilation gas flow and with a light source for illuminating the actuating knob. A movable mounting of the actuating element permits a movement of the actuating element with at least one degree of freedom and the light source is arranged outside the actuating knob in such a way that light can be coupled into the actuating knob and at least partially illuminates an operating side of the actuating knob from the inside.

The invention relates to an air vent including a housing; plural louvers extending horizontally or vertically, pivotably arranged in the housing and aligned relative to an air outlet opening arranged in the housing, wherein the plural louvers are controllable jointly with an identical orientation by a pivot movement from a starting position into a pivot position by an adjustment device for changing an air outflow direction from the air outlet opening, wherein the plural louvers are controllable by at least one actuation element made from a shape memory alloy to adjust a diffuse air flow independently from a control by the adjustment device.

Disclosed is an air vent for an automobile that is structurally improved so that an outlet is slimed down. The air vent for an automobile includes a duct housing configured to guide a flow of air and having an outlet formed therein, a first wing and a second wing disposed to be spaced apart from each other inside the duct housing, a link configured to control a rotation of each of the first wing and the second wing, and a handle unit coupled to the link and configured to control a movement of the link, wherein the link is disposed to be movable and rotatable inside the first wing.

An air flow direction adjusting device is provided with a first rear fin and a second rear fin which are adjacent to each other. At a rear fin main body of the first rear fin of these two rear fins that are adjacent to each other, a protrusion portion is provided in a thickness direction. At a rear fin main body of the second rear fin of the above two rear fins that are adjacent to each other, a recessed portion configured to close a gap between the first rear fin and the second rear fin that are adjacent to each other by the recessed portion coming into contact with the protrusion portion is provided in proximity to a rear turning shaft portion.

An air vent assembly includes an air inlet, an air outlet, and a plurality of channels positioned between the air inlet and the air outlet. A first set of fixed vanes is positioned in a first one of the channels. The fixed vanes of the first set are angled or curved in a first direction with respect to a flow vector of the air inlet. A second set of fixed vanes is positioned in a second one of the channels. The fixed vanes of the second set are angled or curved in a second direction with respect to a flow vector of the air inlet. A gate is positioned within grooves of each of the first and second sets of fixed vanes. The gate is configured to regulate a position at which air may enter the first and second channels from the air inlet.

An outlet assembly having a plurality of different operating modes for improving air flow in an air distribution system is provided. The assembly includes a first blocking element supported by a first wall of a housing for movement between blocking and unblocking positions within a cavity of the housing. The first blocking element prevents a first layer of air from flowing immediately adjacent the first wall in its blocking position. A second blocking element is supported by a second wall of the housing for movement between blocking and unblocking positions within the cavity. The second blocking element prevents a second layer of air from flowing immediately adjacent the second wall in its blocking position. An actuator subassembly including a selector member is supported for movement between a plurality of predefined positions which correspond to first and second blocking modes and a nominal unblocking mode.

A ventilation system for a vehicle includes a duct with an outlet. A housing is in fluid communication with the outlet. A vane is disposed within the housing. The vane has a first pivot axis and a second pivot axis. A first electric motor is configured to pivot the vane relative to the first pivot axis, and a second electric motor is configured to pivot the vane relative to the second pivot axis. A controller is configured to control the first electric motor to pivot the vane relative to the first pivot axis and to control the second electric motor to pivot the vane relative to the second pivot axis.

A vane adjustment device for an air register having a front vane and a rear vane is disclosed. The vane adjustment device comprises a rear vane connector rotatably connected to the rear vane about a first axis, an intermediate connector rotatably connected to the rear vane connector about a second axis different with the first axis, and a front vane connector rotatably connected to the front vane, the front vane connector including a sliding portion slidably and rotatably connected to the intermediate connector.

A ventilator includes a first louver, second louvers, side walls, a first inclined member, and a convex part. The first inclined member is inclined so that an opening area widens from the upstream side to a downstream side. The first inclined member has a vertex of inclination in a cross-sectional view that is positioned at the upstream side. The convex part is arranged adjacent at the upstream side in the airflow direction to the vertex. In a maximum angle state in which the first louver is rotated so that an upstream end part of the first louver is closest to the first inclined member, the upstream end part is positioned further to the downstream side in the airflow direction than the vertex. The convex part projects further to an inside of the flow path than the vertex, and extends across the second louvers when seen along the airflow direction.

The present invention relates to an air vent for a vehicle, provided with a damper for opening or closing the air path of a duct housing with improved operation quality and convenience. The air vent for a vehicle comprises: a duct housing (20) having an air path inside, a vane member for adjusting air discharge direction, a damper (21) for opening or closing the air path and a cover fixing boss (22) formed in an outside surface; a dial knob (30) rotationally coupled to the duct housing (20) and having a knob coupling hole (31); a damper rotation member (40) coupled to a damper (21) rotation shaft and having a pinion gear (41); a knob connector (50) having protruded coupling members (51), of which one is fitted into the knob coupling hole (31); a damper connector (60) link-connected to the knob connector (50), provided with a rack gear (61) to be engaged with the pinion gear (41), and having a guide hole (62) placed by the cover fixing boss (22) of the duct housing (20); and a guide cover (70) having an insertion part (71) fitted with the cover fixing boss (22), and a finishing part (72) coupled to the cover fixing boss (22) by a coupling member (73).
