Abstract: An aerator includes a ventilation conduit (4) provided with an output pipe (16) delimiting the aerator output opening (10). The aerator also compressed an air-guiding element (22) which is disposed in the output pipe (16) and is movable between two ventilation positions. The air-guiding element and the output pipe define therebetween the ventilation positions of the air discharge cross-sections. The aerator includes only one air-guiding element (22) and the discharge sections are embodied in such a way that they guide an airflow (F) in different output directions (D1, D2). The invention is usable for motor vehicle aerators.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device for masking clearances between an instrument panel (6) and a covering element (2) linked to an adjustable steering column along a longitudinal direction (10) and a transverse direction (12). The device comprises a relatively rigid intermediate element (4) mobile solely along the longitudinal direction relative to the instrument panel, to remain in contact with said instrument panel, while the covering element moves along the longitudinal direction and the transverse direction, such that it slides along the longitudinal direction relative to the covering element.

Abstract: A part (1) includes an airbag safety device (21), an instrument board element (3) formed with an extraction flap (13) of the bag, a frame (23) which is fixed to the instrument board element (3) in such a way as to form a channel (65) for guiding the unfolding of the bag, and a shutter (25) for reinforcing the flap (13), a retaining part (93) of the shutter being connected to the frame (23) by at least one retaining hook (95). The hook (95) is formed from one piece with the shutter (25), and co-operates with a complementary shoulder (87A) formed with the frame (23) when the device is triggered. The invention also relates to a method for assembling one such part (1).
