Abstract: The air outlet device (10) for the interior of a vehicle, particularly for being arranged above a seat of a vehicle such as, e.g., an airplane, a bus or the like, is provided with an air outlet element (38) comprising at least one air inlet opening (44) and an air outlet opening (45). Further, the air outlet device (10) comprises a slide element (46) for blocking and unblocking the at least one air inlet opening (44) and an actuating element (30) for moving the slide element (46), which is arranged at the air outlet opening (45) and comprises a collar. The actuating element (30) is supported so as to be pivotable about a longitudinal axis (50) of the collar. When the actuating element (30) is rotated, the slide element (46) is movable along a curved path for blocking and unblocking.

Abstract: A lamp for a vehicle, in particular for aircraft, has a housing in which a light source is arranged, with the housing including a first housing part detachably attached to a second housing part, the first and second housing parts being coaxially arranged. Each of the first and second housing parts has at least one projection extending in the axial direction from an edge thereof, for inter-engaging in a corresponding recess of the other housing part. Each projection has a retaining nose protruding in the radial, transverse, direction to form a groove into which a locking element can be inserted to lock the first housing part to the second housing part.
