Abstract

In the present invention, a wind direction is not directly changed using a wind direction adjusting wing and a guide related thereto, but the wind direction is changed due to the Coanda effect and the vortex formation. A basic principle of the present invention of adjusting a wind direction by applying a Coanda effect is to design the air ventilation apparatus such that a wind direction is adjusted upward or downward by causing a Coanda effect on one curved surface of the air ventilation apparatus connected to a skin surface of a dashboard garnish and preventing the Coanda effect from being caused on an opposite surface. In addition to the Coanda effect, a structure for artificially forming a vortex is added to the air ventilation apparatus to maximize the Coanda effect.
