Publication number: 20240083222Abstract: An air vent is configured to discharge two separate volumetric flows of air in respectively different and intersecting discharge directions. A perceived air discharge direction is adjustable with no change to the intersecting discharge directions. A first volumetric flow of air exits the first air duct in a first direction, and a second volumetric flow of air exits the second air duct in a second direction that intersects the first direction so that the volumetric flows of air collide after exiting airducts of the air vent. A non-visible vane located along one of the air ducts is moveable to change the perceived air discharge direction.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 15, 2023Publication date: March 14, 2024Inventors: Volker DOLL, Stephane LONDICHE, Julien SEILLER, Martin SCHULZ

Patent number: 11400795Abstract: An air vent includes a housing, an air guide surface, an air flow adjusting element, and a vane. The air guide surface at least partially defines an air duct configured to convey a volumetric flow of air through the housing so that the volumetric flow of air exits the air duct in a direction that at least partially defines an air discharge direction perceived outside of the air vent. The air flow adjusting element is moveable to vertically change the perceived air discharge direction, and the vane is movable to horizontally change the perceived air discharge direction. The vane is not visible to a user of the air vent when the air vent is viewed from an air outlet end of the housing.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2018Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: FAURECIA INNENRAUM SYSTEME GMBHInventors: Volker Doll, Stephane Londiche, Julien Seiller, Martin Schulz
