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.

Disclosed is a ventilation outlet including one or more flow directing elements arranged movably in a housing and with an actuating element mounted movably on the housing with an actuating knob for actuating at least one flow directing element for controlling a ventilation gas flow and with a light source for illuminating the actuating knob. A movable mounting of the actuating element permits a movement of the actuating element with at least one degree of freedom and the light source is arranged outside the actuating knob in such a way that light can be coupled into the actuating knob and at least partially illuminates an operating side of the actuating knob from the inside.

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.
