Abstract: A device for controlling an air flow in a motor vehicle compartment. The device includes: a frame defining an opening; a plurality of slats extending across the frame, arranged above one another; and an actuator connected to each of the slats by a respective fastener. Each slat extends in a respective air deflection plane, and is movable via the actuator, between: a closed position, in which the slats cooperate with one another to block the passage of the air through the opening, and an open position, in which the slats allow the air to flow through the opening, the deflection planes of the slats intersecting upstream from the frame. Each fastener is mounted rotatably only on the actuator, around a respective actuating axis.
