  • Publication number: 20230249523
    Abstract: An air vent (10) such as a flat or joint vent has an adjustable air-outflow direction (9) to direct an airstream. An air-deflection area (4) between the air inlet opening (2) and the air outlet opening (3) sets the air-outflow direction (9) at the air outlet opening (3). At least one regulation means (7) in the air-deflection area (4) is arranged in the flow channel (1) in order to influence the geometry of the flow channel. The at least one regulation means (7) is essentially tubular and elastically deformable. The at least one regulation means (7) splits the airstream (15) into partial streams (21) that flow through the regulation means (7).

  • Publication number: 20210031664
    Abstract: A storage device for a vehicle has a housing, a drawer, which in normal use can be moved relative to the housing in a vehicle longitudinal direction between a closed state and an open state, a movable wall, and a movement mechanism, which is designed to change the position of the movable wall from a closed state of the drawer, in which closed state the movable wall is in a retracted position, at least into a first extended position in the open state of the drawer. In the retracted position, the movable wall is arranged in a cavity of a wall of the drawer. In the extended position, the movable wall is at least partially arranged in an interior of the drawer.
