Abstract
There is provided an air conditioning register which can prevent or effectively suppress a reduction in an effective opening surface area at an air-conditioned air blow-out portion, and which has good blow-out efficiency of air-conditioned air. A first flow pathand a second flow path, whose directions toward a blow-out bezeldiffer, are formed within a retainerof an air conditioning register. A first damperand plural second dampers, which are interlocked with one another, are provided at the retainer. The first damperopens and closes the first flow path, and the second dampersopen and close the second flow path. The first damperand the second dampersare operated such that either one of the first flow pathand the second flow pathis opened and the other is closed, and the flow path of the air-conditioned air is switched. In this way, a blow-out direction of the air-conditioned air from the blow-out bezelis controlled, while a reduction in an effective opening surface area at the blow-out bezelis prevented or effectively suppressed.
