Abstract: An air vent is disposed between an air circulation device and an interior space is described, and includes a housing defining a first chamber in fluidic communication with a second chamber, wherein the first chamber includes a fluidic inlet in fluidic communication with the air circulation device and the second chamber includes a fluidic outlet in fluidic communication with the interior space. A first airflow control vane is disposed in the first chamber to direct the airflow from the air circulation device in a first direction. A second airflow control vane is disposed in the second chamber to direct the airflow in a second direction that is orthogonal to the first direction. A single operator-directed device is operatively coupled to the first airflow control vane and the second airflow control vane, and is disposed to independently adjust the positions of the first and second airflow control vanes.

Abstract: A blower is provided for the fresh air supply into the interior of a motor vehicle, with a housing of at least two housing parts, which via their housing splits can be sealed to the outside. The first housing part is assigned a first air suction or air outlet opening and the second housing part a second air suction or air blow-out opening. The housing splits allow a sealing connection of the two housing parts in a first relative position (A) and in at least a further relative position (B, C) to one another, with fastening means for connecting the two housing parts in the first relative position (A) of the housing split and with additional fastening means for their connecting in the further relative position (B, C). The additional fastening means upon a connection in the first relative position remains unutilized.
