A vehicle trim element having at least one functional component and at least one aerator of the vehicle compartment. The aerator includes at least one duct for conveying a gas flow defining an opening for diffusing the gas flow, the conveying duct extending in a main direction. The aerator is arranged to diffuse a gas flow in the passenger compartment of the vehicle in a diffusion direction in which the gas flow is diffused and which is variable by Coanda effect, between a first diffusion direction and a second diffusion direction that is different from the first diffusion direction. The opening for diffusing the gas flow extends around the periphery of at least one portion of the functional component.

Vehicle trim component comprising a functional element and an aerator

A trim element that includes a supporting element having a main surface extending between two opposite edges, a lining layer covering the main surface and the edges of the supporting layer, and a skin surrounding the lining layer. At least one of the edges includes a reinforcing element movably mounted relative to the supporting element between a retracted position and a deployed position wherein at least one portion of the reinforcing element protects from the main surface in such a way as to reduce the length of the portion of the reinforcing element extending in relation to the main surface, the projecting portion being surrounded by the lining layer.

Vehicle trim element and manufacturing method thereof

A blocking device that includes a blocking pin movable on the first element between an unblocked position and a blocked position, and an actuating element secured to the second element and arranged to move the blocking pin. The blocking pin is fastened to the first element by a stressing element arranged to exert a force stressing the blocking pin toward its unblocked position between the unblocked position and an intermediate position of the blocking pin, and to exert a force stressing the blocking pin toward its blocked position between the intermediate position and the blocked position of the blocking pin.
