An air vent for a vehicle may include: a duct part having an internal path through which air is moved; a first adjusting part rotatably installed in the duct part, and configured to guide the discharge direction of the air while rotated in a side-to-side direction; a second adjusting part rotatably installed in the duct part with the first adjusting part, and configured to guide the discharge direction of the air or block an air flow passing through the duct part, while rotated in a top-to-bottom direction; and an airtightness maintaining part fixed to the duct part facing the second adjusting part, and configured to block the movement of the air while brought into contact with the second adjusting part for opening/closing the duct part.

A vehicle air vent system includes a dashboard defining an air vent opening. An air register assembly is disposed within the air vent opening of the dashboard. The air register assembly includes a frame and a vane rotatably coupled to the frame. An imager is coupled to the dashboard. The imager captures data within a field of view. A controller is communicatively coupled to the imager and the air register assembly. The controller receives the data from the imager. The controller determines a position of an object within the field of view in response to the data.

An air flow direction regulation device includes a plurality of fins turnably supported; an approximately cylindrical housing arranging an operation portion or a gear mechanism for allowing a direction of each of the fins to be regulated; and a case disposing the housing internally. The fin is turnably supported as support points by an outer pivot portion on a housing inner circumferential side and an inner pivot portion on a housing center axis line side, and includes a gear portion provided near the inner pivot portion. The gear mechanism includes a gear integrally rotating with the operation portion through a shaft to engage the gear portion of each fin. The housing includes a flexible shaft support member provided on a housing center axis line, and forming a connection portion fitting into the inner pivot portion of each fin, and a through hole inserting the shaft to pass through.

Provided is an instrument panel structure including: a lower panel portion that is provided with an air-conditioning device at an interior thereof, the lower panel portion having, in a vehicle upper portion thereof, a placement surface portion that extends in a vehicle width direction and a vehicle front-rear direction, and having an open portion, for the air-conditioning device, that opens toward a side of the placement surface portion; an upper panel portion that covers the placement surface portion as seen from a vehicle upper side and that is placed on the placement surface portion; and a slit-shaped air outlet portion that is formed between the lower panel portion and the upper panel portion, that extends in the vehicle width direction while facing a seat side, and that communicates the open portion with a vehicle cabin.

An air vent control system comprises a directional air flow component mounted on a first axis within a first housing, and a second housing defining an inner space in which the first housing is mounted. A first motor moves the directional air flow component to an angular position within the first housing, and a second motor pivots the first housing contained within the second housing. A front and rear opening allows air flow in a direction from the rear opening to the front opening. A controller sets the angular position of the directional air flow component on the first axis, and the angular position of the first housing on the second axis. The respective positions of the directional air flow component relative to the first housing and the first housing relative to the second housing selectively regulate the direction of airflow discharged.

A vent unit includes a bezel installed on a vehicle and formed in a ring shape with a flow hole at the center, and a spacer overlapping and coupled to the bezel and formed in a ring shape rotating relative to the bezel. The bezel has a plurality of first through-holes circumferentially spaced apart from one another, and the spacer has a plurality of second through-holes circumferentially spaced apart from one another such that conditioning air is discharged to an interior through the second through-holes and the first through-holes when the second through-holes are aligned with the first through-holes by circumferential rotation. The vent unit further includes a wing disposed in the flow hole of the bezel and coupled to the spacer through a hinge shaft. The wing controls discharge of conditioning air through the flow hole by axially rotating, and circumferentially relatively rotating together with the spacer.

An air vent for a vehicle may include: a duct part having an internal path through which air is moved; a first adjusting part rotatably installed in the duct part, and guiding the direction of discharged air while rotated in a side-to-side direction; a second adjusting part rotatably installed in the duct part with the first adjusting part, and adjusting a flow rate and direction of discharged air while rotated in an upward/downward direction or blocking an air flow passing through the duct part; a driving part connected to the second adjusting part and configured to supply power to rotate the second adjusting part; and a rotation pressing part connected to the second adjusting part and elastically supporting the second adjusting part to rotate the second adjusting part in one direction.

A combined luminaire and air conditioning nozzle includes a front panel (101) with an opening. A nozzle frame (103) is pivotably connected to the opening of the front panel (101) so as to separate an air cavity (105) located behind the front panel (101) from a front side of the front panel (101). The structure includes a controller element (106) with a closing mechanism mechanically coupled thereto and arranged to adjustably limit an air passage (107) from the air cavity (105) to the front side of the front panel (101) in response to a movement of the controller element (106). A luminaire element (108) forms part of the closing mechanism and is provided with a light source arranged to output light to the front side of the front panel (101). The closing mechanism is arranged to convert a movement of the controller element (106) into a movement of the luminaire element (108), so that said adjustable limiting of the air passage (107) occurs as a result of said movement of the luminaire element (108).

Provided is a register that can more surely suppress abnormal noise caused by air passing through a space between a damper and a retainer. An inner wall of an upper side wall of the retainer is formed with a plurality of rib parts provided on a downstream side relative to an outer periphery on the downstream side of a plate member in a closed state of a damper. The plurality of rib parts is arranged in a direction parallel to a turning axis of the damper, and adjacent rib parts are formed into different shapes. A soft seal member is provided with a plurality of protrusion parts on an upper surface of the outer periphery on the downstream side of the plate member.

A vehicle air vent system includes a duct defining an outlet that directs air into an interior compartment. An air register assembly is operably coupled to the duct proximate to the outlet. The air register assembly includes a frame. A vane is rotatably coupled to the frame. A variable resistor is operably coupled to the frame. A user interface has a display. A controller is communicatively coupled to the user interface and the variable resistor. The controller receives a signal from the variable resistor and determines a position of the air register assembly in response to the signal.
