Air vent with an aerodynamic element for regulating airflow
An air vent comprising a housing extending between an air inlet opening and an air outlet opening, such that the housing has a first wall segment and a second wall segment; an air guiding element, arranged at least partially inside the housing thereby creating a first partial airflow channel and a second partial airflow channel between the air inlet opening and the air outlet opening; an airflow regulating element for regulating the airflow through the partial air flow channels, which airflow regulating element is arranged at the side of the air guiding element that is facing the air inlet opening; wherein the airflow regulating element forms an extension of the air guiding element in the direction of the air inlet opening and wherein the airflow regulating element is pivotable around an axis that lies behind the center of the airflow regulating element when viewed in the direction from the air outlet opening to the air inlet opening.
Air conditioning device for vehicle
The present disclosure provides an air conditioning device for a vehicle. The air conditioning device includes an air conditioning unit disposed in at least one of front or rear of the vehicle. The air conditioning device further includes a duct unit blowing air of the air conditioning unit into an interior and extending inside of at least one of a front pillar or a rear pillar. The air conditioning device further includes a vent unit communicating with the duct unit through a connecting duct and selectively opening and closing a discharge path of at least one of a main path, a first path, or a second path so as to discharge the blown air to a side of a roof frame.
Ventilation system
A ventilation system including a housing into which a volume of air is directed in an initial air flow direction. The ventilation system includes an air flow guide extending between a base portion and a tip thereof. The air flow guide is movable between a first position, in which the tip is located at a predetermined first minimum distance from an inlet portion wall, and a second position, in which the tip is located at a predetermined second minimum distance from the inlet portion wall, to partially guide the air flowing into the housing into a first channel and a second channel respectively. The ventilation system includes a number of cross-car vanes that are movable together to direct air flowing through the housing in a selected direction relative to the initial air flow direction.
REGISTER DEVICE FOR VEHICLE
A register device includes a register body, a plurality of upstream fins, a single downstream fin and an operation knob. The plurality of upstream fins are supported by the register body so as to be rotatable about a rotation axis extending in a left-right direction. The plurality of upstream fins are arranged in a vertical direction. The downstream fin is disposed in an air passage on a blow outlet side with respect to the upstream fins. The downstream fin is supported by the register body so as to be rotatable about a rotation axis extending in the vertical direction. The downstream fin extending in the vertical direction includes a pair of flat plate portions extending in the vertical direction parallel to each other. The operation knob is supported by the downstream fin so as to be slidable in the vertical direction. The operation knob, as it is slid, rotatably operates the upstream fins. The operation knob is disposed between the pair of flat plate portions so as to be fit in a space between the pair of flat plate portions in the left-right direction.
Air-conditioning register
An air-conditioning register includes: a movable fin; an operation knob; and a transmission mechanism. A load generating mechanism is provided in a middle of a force transmission path in the transmission mechanism. The load generating mechanism includes a pressure receiving portion, a pressing member, and a spring. The pressure receiving portion has a pressure receiving surface. The pressing member rotates with respect to the pressure receiving portion as the operation knob rotates. The spring generates a load between the pressing member and the pressure receiving portion by urging the pressing member toward a side approaching the pressure receiving surface and pressing the pressing member against the pressure receiving surface. The pressing member and the pressure receiving portion are each formed of a hard resin material, and the pressing member is directly in contact with the pressure receiving surface to generate the load.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONTROLLING VENTS OF A VEHICLE
An assembly for a ventilation system of a vehicle is provided. The assembly is configured to use a single actuator to control direction of a vent and additionally control the flow rate of that vent. The assembly may comprise a single rotatable control member with two routes, one route used for controlling flow rate and one route for controlling flow direction. Each route may have a straight portion and curved portion.
Air vent
The invention relates to an air vent, comprising a first air channel, a second air channel, an air regulating flap pivotable around a flap axis for adjusting a ratio between a first airflow through the first air channel and a second airflow through the second air channel, wherein the air regulating flap closes the first air channel in a first position and the air regulating flap closes the second air channel in a second position. A plurality of first vanes are disposed at least partially in the first air channel, wherein each of the first vanes is pivotable around a first vane axis. A plurality of second vanes are disposed at least partially in the second air channel, wherein each of the second vanes is pivotable around a second vane axis. A manipulator can coupled to the first vanes, the second vanes and the air regulating flap such as for adjusting the first vanes, the second vanes and the air regulating flap.
Air vent for a vehicle
A vehicle air vent includes a primary vane system pivotal about a horizontal axis to direct an air flow from an outlet of the vehicle air vent in an up/down direction and including a primary vane, a secondary vane system pivotal about a vertical axis to direct an air flow from an outlet of the vehicle air vent in a side-to-side direction and including a secondary vane, and an air flow volume control system including a control knob movable in a fore/aft direction for adjusting the volume of air flow through the air vent.
Finger tab interface for vehicle pressure relief valve incorporated into a ventilation module for providing slow closing/opening of valve under low pressures resulting from a door slam event
A ventilation module for a vehicle having a housing including a flap hingedly secured along an inner edge to the housing to extend across its open interior. The flap includes side edges and an interconnecting outer edge which contact, in a closed flap condition, support locations configured along the housing to define its open interior. One or more fingers extend from at least one of the side and outer edges of the flap so that the fingers abut standoff locations of the housing located in proximity to the support locations. Upon a sufficient positive air pressure condition created within the passenger compartment which overcomes a holding force exerted by the fingers against said stand-offs, the flap is allowed to open in a controlled fashion to vent to the exterior the excess air pressure, until reclosing upon achieving an air equilibrium condition.
AIR OUTFLOW DEVICE, CONSOLE AND VEHICLE
The invention relates to the technical field of air outflow, and aims to solve the problem whereby louvers in an air outflow device in a current vehicle needs to be manually turned to adjust an air outflow direction. The invention provides an air outflow device. An opening/closing member and an air distribution member are rotatably disposed in an air inflow section, an outlet of a first air outflow section and an outlet of a second air outflow section are respectively provided with a first louver structure and a second louver structure, and a first driving member and a second driving member are disposed outside an air channel. The first driving member is capable of driving the opening/closing member to open/close the air inflow section so as to connect/disconnect the air inflow section, and is capable of driving the air distribution member to rotate so as to adjust an air outflow amount and a longitudinal air outflow direction. The second driving member is capable of driving the first louver structure and the second louver structure to swing together so as to adjust a transverse air outflow direction. According to the invention, the air outflow direction is adjusted without the need for manually turning the louvers, so that the air outflow device is convenient to use.
