Publication number: 20230012129Abstract: An air conduction device for a motor vehicle including an air conduction element and a movement device with adjustment kinematics. The air conduction element is movable relative to the remaining body as at least part of a tail side part of the vehicle body. The air conduction element moves between an inoperative position and at least one final operating position. The tail side part has a flow guiding area along which air flows which is designed to face an area surrounding the motor vehicle. The air conduction element has a surface which is at least part of the flow guiding area. The air conduction element is configured in its final operating position to lengthen the flow guiding area in the direction of a longitudinal body axis (X) of the body.

Publication number: 20230001991Abstract: A motor vehicle side spoiler arrangement with a spoiler blade which can be moved in a motorized manner between a retracted rest position and a laterally extended spoiler position. A spoiler shell is fixed on the vehicle and provided with a shell rear wall, a guide mechanism which guides the spoiler blade in the longitudinal direction, and an actuating motor. A sliding seal lip is provided between the spoiler blade and the shell rear wall, which sliding seal lip closes a front-side gap (S) between the spoiler blade and the shell rear wall in the spoiler position of the spoiler blade.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 26, 2022Publication date: January 5, 2023Applicant: Dr. Ing. h.c.

Publication number: 20150232135Abstract: A rear spoiler for a motor vehicle has a spoiler body (14) for deflecting a stream of air to provide an aerodynamic effect. The spoiler body (14) has a main spoiler (16) with a main surface (21) and an auxiliary spoiler (18) with an auxiliary surface (62). A multi-jointed actuating kinematics (34) can move the main spoiler (16) and the auxiliary spoiler (18) between a storage position where the auxiliary surface (62) of the auxiliary spoiler (18) is at least partially below the main spoiler (16) and a use position where the auxiliary spoiler (18) is substantially in a common plane with the main surface (21).Type: ApplicationFiled: June 19, 2014Publication date: August 20, 2015Inventors: Dominik Beierl, Jochen Meder, Joachim Paul, Frank Neubrand, Haiko Neher

Patent number: 9096279Abstract: A rear region of a vehicle has an air-guiding device (10) with a mounting element (11) for the air-guiding device on the vehicle, and with at least one air-guiding element (13) that is shiftable between a retracted inoperative position and an extended operating position. A gap (14) is formed between the air-guiding element (13) and the mounting element (11) when the air guiding device (10) is in the extended operating position. However, the gap (14) can be closed via a closure device (15). The closure device (15) has a multi-layered, flexible sheetlike structure (16) with at least one front outer, flexible layer (17) and a rear outer, flexible layer (18). In the extended operating position, the front outer layer (17) can be stretched with the aid of a stiff clamping element (19) and the rear outer layer (19) can be stretched with the aid of a flexible clamping element (20).Type: GrantFiled: September 15, 2014Date of Patent: August 4, 2015Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c.F.

Patent number: 8991899Abstract: An air-guiding device (12) is arranged in a rear-end region of a vehicle and has a central main air-guiding element (13) that is displaceable from a retracted rest position into a deployed operating position. Lateral auxiliary air-guiding elements (14, 15) are adjustable substantially linearly relative to the main air-guiding element (13) in a direction transverse to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle to be transferred from a rest position, in which they are retracted into the main air-guiding element (13), into an operating position, in which they are deployed out of the main air-guiding element (13). Each auxiliary air-guiding element is movable along a guide unit (22) in the main air-guiding element (13) and is guided in the guide unit (22) in a first direction by at least one slide element (26) and in a second direction by at least one guide pin (27).Type: GrantFiled: May 22, 2014Date of Patent: March 31, 2015Assignee: Dr. Ing. h.c.
