A blocking device for a front end air inlet of a motor vehicle, comprising at least one stop, a support frame, at least one flap arranged inside the support frame. The at least one flap comprises a first end and a second end. The second end of the at least one flap comprises a release device. The release device comprises a first part and a second part which are connected by a male/female device. The first part of the release device is configured to come into contact with said at least one stop such that the first part and the second part move apart from one another by the rotation of the second part.

Device for closing a front-end air intake of a motor vehicle, having a flap disconnection device

An air flow regulation device for an air inlet of a front-end module for a motor vehicle includes a support frame with multiple blocking flaps mounted mobile on the support frame. At least one of the blocking flaps of the support frame includes a leading edge and a trailing edge, and one of the leading and trailing edges is arranged to come into abutment against the support frame. The support frame includes an obstacle configured to generate disturbances in the flow of the air between the support frame and the flap that comes into abutment against the frame.

Device for regulating an air flow for a motor vehicle front end module

An air guide for a motor vehicle includes: at least one downstream main duct intended to be positioned in front of a heat exchange device of the motor vehicle; and at least one air inlet upstream duct configured to be connected to an air inlet, the at least one air inlet upstream duct being connected to the downstream main duct in order to guide the air from the air inlet towards the heat exchange device. The air guide is made as a single piece.

Air guide and air guide module

The invention relates to a device (AGS) for controlling the air intake for a front face module for a motor vehicle, comprising shutters (SHT, SHT), an actuator (ACT) arranged so as to control the shutters (SHT, SHT), and a flexible connection (STR, ROD) connecting the actuator (ACT) to the shutters (SHT, SHT), which can displace the actuator (ACT) in order to prevent it (ACT) from causing damage to an entity (PED, OBS) in the event of a collusion between the motor vehicle and said entity (PED, OBS). The invention also relates to a front face module for a motor vehicle comprising such an air intake control device.

AGS with displaceable actuator

The invention relates to a device () for sealing an air intake of a motor vehicle, comprising: &#x2014;at least one sealing means () intended to be arranged in an air intake of the motor vehicle, and &#x2014;a support () for the sealing means () in order to retain the sealing means () and intended to be attached on a load-bearing structure of the motor vehicle. According to the invention, the support () comprises damping guidance means () for the sealing means () in order to allow, in the event of an impact on the sealing means (), the movement of the sealing means () from an initial retaining position to a position retracted with respect to the initial position. The invention also relates to a front-end module for a motor vehicle comprising such a sealing device.

The invention concerns a structure () of a system () for managing the air of an air inlet for the front panel of a motor vehicle, said structure () comprising:&#x2014;a frame () intended to be positioned facing a heat exchanger (Ra), &#x2014;one or more deflectors () that are secured to said frame () and are arranged in such a way as to intercept a flow of air and deflect it through said frame (). The invention also concerns a system () for managing the air of an air inlet for the front panel of a motor vehicle having such a structure ().

Air inlet management system for the front panel of a motor vehicle and structure of such a system

An inlet-air management device for a motor vehicle may include a flexible duct for guiding the air entering via a motor vehicle grille and a shutter device fixed in the flexible duct. Additionally, an inlet-air management device is configured to be fixed in a motor vehicle via the flexible duct. Further, the shutter device is then being suspended in the motor vehicle via the flexible duct.

Flap control device for motor vehicle and frame comprising such a device

The invention relates to a flap control device for a motor vehicle comprising at least one flap and an actuator moving said at least one flap between a closed and open position.

Shutter-controlling device for a motor vehicle, and frame comprising such a device

The invention relates to an air guide for a motor vehicle comprising at least one downstream main duct () intended to be positioned in front of a heat exchange device () of the motor vehicle () and at least one air inlet upstream duct () intended to be connected to an air inlet (), the at least one air inlet upstream duct () being connected to the downstream main duct () to guide the air from the air inlet () toward the heat exchange device (), characterized in that the air guide is made as a single piece.

A module for a cooling circuit of a motor vehicle engine includes at least one control valve allowing a circulation according to at least one normal mode. The module also includes a thermal safety device capable of allowing a circulation according to another mode called the short-circuit mode in the event of failure of the normal circulation mode.

A control valve () for a fluid circulation circuit comprises a valve body () having a bottom wall into which an axial orifice emerges and a side wall () into which side orifices () emerge, the valve body delimiting a housing of revolution for a regulating member () capable of rotating about a rotation axis XX and of taking various angular positions to control the distribution of the fluid through the orifices. The regulating member () is surrounded by a sealing segment () in the shape of an open ring and elastic means are provided to separate two ends () of the sealing segment in order to deform it radially outward and thus ensure that the sealing segment is pressed against the valve body housing. Application particularly to the fluid circuit of motor vehicles.
