Abstract
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.
