Abstract
An air-conditioning register includes an operation knob. The operation knob includes a knob body and a cap with its downstream end portion closed by a lens. The cap is made of a material softer than those of the knob body and the lens. The inner circumferential portion of the upstream end portion of the cap is pressed against the outer circumferential portion of the knob body with at least a part engaged with the outer circumferential portion of the knob body by a projection-recess relationship. The inner circumferential portion of the downstream end portion of the cap is pressed against the outer circumferential portion of the lens with at least a part engaged with the outer circumferential portion of the lens by a projection-recess relationship.
