Abstract: An air guiding element with a surface element and a longitudinally displaceable carrier element. The surface element is articulated to the carrier element in a movably mounted manner, furthermore with a drive element with a gearwheel. The carrier element can be driven in a longitudinally displaceable manner by the gearwheel transmission in such a way that a rack of the gearwheel transmission is connected to the drive element in a drivable manner via a spur gear and the rack is in driving connection with the carrier element.

Abstract: An adjustable lateral air-directing wing arrangement for a motor vehicle includes a lateral air-directing wing, which is displaceable by an electric motor between a resting position retracted into a vehicle body and an active position extended from the vehicle body. The arrangement includes a vehicle-mounted carriage guide including a longitudinal guide track oriented predominantly in the motor vehicle longitudinal direction, and a guide carriage, which is linearly guided in the longitudinal guide track of the carriage guide and which supports the air-directing wing. The guide carriage includes a gear rack that is parallel to the movement of the guide carriage, and an electric motor-driven carriage drive, which includes an output gear cog that engages with the gear rack.

Abstract: An air-guiding element includes a surface element and a longitudinally displaceable carrier element. The surface element is articulated on the carrier element in a movably mounted manner. The air-guiding element further includes a drive element with a spindle mechanism and a linear guide. The carrier element can be driven in a longitudinally displaceable manner by the spindle mechanism such that a threaded spindle of the spindle mechanism is drivably connected to the drive element and a spindle nut is in driving connection with the carrier element.

Abstract: A lateral rear region of a motor vehicle has a rear body member which extends at least behind a rear wheel housing of the motor vehicle, an air directing device, and an air guidance element of the air directing device. The air guidance element is displaceable relative to the rear body member between a rest position in which it is retracted into the lateral rear region and an operating position in which it is extended out of the lateral rear region in such a way that, in the retracted rest position of the air guidance element, a flow guide surface of the air guidance element is covered by the rear body member. In the extended operating position of the air guidance element, the flow guide surface of the air guidance element is displaced towards the rear, as seen in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle.

Abstract: A lateral rear region of a vehicle includes a rear body member, which extends at least behind a rear wheel housing of the vehicle, and an air directing device. An air guidance element of the air directing device is displaceable relative to the rear body member between a rest position retracted into the lateral rear region and a service position extended out of the same such that, in the retracted rest position, a flow guide surface of the air guidance element is covered by the rear body member and that, in the extended operating position, the flow guide surface of the air guidance element is rearwardly displaced from the rear body member at least in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle. The air directing device includes a guide and drive unit, which guides and drives the air guidance element during the displacement relative to the rear body member.

Abstract: A lateral rear region of a motor vehicle includes a rear vehicle body member extending at least behind a rear wheel housing of the motor vehicle. The lateral rear region includes an air directing device, wherein an air guidance element of the air directing device is displaceable relative to the rear vehicle body member between a rest position retracted in the lateral rear region and an operational position extended out of the lateral rear portion. In the retracted rest position, a flow guide surface of the air guidance element is covered by the rear vehicle body member. In the extended operational position, the flow guide surface of the air guidance element is, at least in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle, displaced rearward relative to the rear vehicle body member.

Abstract: An adjustable motor vehicle lateral air deflector arrangement with a lateral air deflector which can be adjusted by electric motor between a rest position retracted into a body and an active position extended from the body. The arrangement includes (i) a guide link fixed to the vehicle with a longitudinal guide track oriented predominantly in the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle, (ii) a link slide guided in the longitudinal guide track of the guide link, which holds the air deflector, and (iii) an electromotive link drive, which moves a flexible actuating cable that is attached to the link slide. The link drive can be arranged at a distance from the guide link so that a compact air deflector arrangement can be realized.

Abstract: 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. The adjustment kinematics are configured in the form of multipoint joint kinematics.
