An air vent is configured to discharge two separate volumetric flows of air in respectively different and intersecting discharge directions. A perceived air discharge direction is adjustable with no change to the intersecting discharge directions. A first volumetric flow of air exits the first air duct in a first direction, and a second volumetric flow of air exits the second air duct in a second direction that intersects the first direction so that the volumetric flows of air collide after exiting airducts of the air vent. A non-visible vane located along one of the air ducts is moveable to change the perceived air discharge direction.

Air vent

An air vent includes a housing, first and second air ducts, a first vane, and a set of vanes. The air ducts convey respective volumetric flows of air through the housing so that each volumetric flow exits the respective air duct in a different intersecting direction so that the flows of air collide after exiting the air ducts. A vane located along one of the air ducts is moveable to vertically change a perceived air discharge direction. A set of vanes includes at least one vane located in each air duct and is moveable to horizontally change the perceived air discharge direction.

An air vent includes a housing, an air guide surface, an air flow adjusting element, and a vane. The air guide surface at least partially defines an air duct configured to convey a volumetric flow of air through the housing so that the volumetric flow of air exits the air duct in a direction that at least partially defines an air discharge direction perceived outside of the air vent. The air flow adjusting element is moveable to vertically change the perceived air discharge direction, and the vane is movable to horizontally change the perceived air discharge direction. The vane is not visible to a user of the air vent when the air vent is viewed from an air outlet end of the housing.

An air vent includes air-conveying surfaces in a housing arranged to guide separate first and second volumetric flows of air through the housing from an inlet end to a discharge end via respective first and second air channels. The air channels are arranged so that the first and second volumetric flows of air exit an air discharge opening in intersecting directions and collide after exiting the housing. The air vent includes an air flow adjustment element that is movable to change a ratio of the first volumetric flow to the second volumetric flow.

An air vent comprising a housing, an air inlet opening, which is located in the axial direction of the housing, and an air outlet opening, which is disposed opposite the air inlet opening, a first air guide surface, which has a first bulge and is disposed in the housing, and a second air guide surface, which has a second bulge and is disposed in the housing, wherein the first bulge points in a first direction and the second bulge points in a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction oppose one another and extend perpendicularly to the axial direction, wherein the first air guide surface and the second air guide surface are disposed at a distance from the housing, wherein a first air duct is formed by the housing and the first air guide surface, and wherein a second air duct is formed by the housing and the second air guide surface, wherein the first air duct is designed to convey a first volumetric flow of air&#x2014;which can flow into the housing through the air inlet opening&#x2014;to the air outlet opening, wherein the second air duct is designed to convey a second volumetric flow of air&#x2014;which can flow into the housing through the air inlet opening&#x2014;to the air outlet opening, comprising a first vane and a second vane, wherein the first vane is movably disposed at the end of the first air guide surface facing the air inlet opening, and wherein the second vane is disposed at the end of the second air guide surface facing the air inlet opening, wherein the movability of the first vane and the second vane is designed such that the ratio of the first volumetric flow to the second volumetric flow can be adjusted by means of the position of the first vane and the second vane.

An air vent is provided having a housing, an air inlet opening located in the axial direction with respect to the housing and an air discharge opening opposite the air inlet opening, an air-conveying element located in the housing having a first air-conveying surface and a second air-conveying surface, which is opposite the first air-conveying surface, wherein a first air channel is formed by the housing and the first air-conveying surface and a second air channel is formed by the housing and the second air-conveying surface, wherein the first air channel is configured to transport to the air discharge opening a first volume flow of air that can flow into the housing through the air inlet opening, wherein the second air channel is configured to transport to the air discharge opening a second volume flow of air that can flow into the housing through the air inlet opening, and a first wing, wherein the first wing is arranged movably on the end of the air-conveying element facing the air inlet opening, wherein the movability of the first wing is configured such that the ratio of first volume flow to second volume flow can be adjusted on account of the position of the first wing, wherein the second air-conveying surface may be symmetrical with respect to the first air-conveying surface.

The invention relates to an air outlet comprising a housing, an operating element arranged on the visible side of the air outlet, a first air-guiding element and a closure element, wherein the operating element has a handle and a lever-like rotary element, wherein the pivot point of the rotary element is arranged on the handle, wherein the rotary element is mechanically coupled to the closure element via a first coupling in order to adjust the intensity of the air that can flow out from the air outlet, wherein the handle can be moved in a first direction and is mechanically coupled to the first air-guiding element via a second coupling in order to adjust the outflow direction of the air that can flow out from the air outlet, wherein the outflow direction lies in a first plane having the first direction, wherein the first coupling is operatively connected to a first lever, wherein the pivot point of the first lever is arranged on the second coupling, wherein the second coupling has a second lever, wherein the pivot point of the second lever is arranged on the air outlet in a manner fixed on the housing.
