Patent number: 11827090Abstract: The invention relates to a device (I) for regulating an air stream for an air inlet of a motor vehicle, comprising a housing (2) defining a flow duct (4), in which an air stream flows, in which a cooling unit (6) is at least partially arranged, comprising at least one heat exchanger (8, IO) and a motorized fan unit (12). According to the invention, the housing (2) comprises a sealing means (64, 64a, 64b, 64c) for preventing any air leakage outside the flow duct (4). The invention also relates to a motor vehicle comprising such a regulating device (I).Type: GrantFiled: August 14, 2019Date of Patent: November 28, 2023Assignee: Valeo Systemes ThermiquesInventors: Stephan Andre, Jerome Ripa, Pierre Alexandre Langlet
