  • Patent number: 11890925
    Abstract: A device for controlling a hot air flow, for example in an engine compartment of a motor car, includes at least one wing connectable to an air inflow opening of an engine compartment of a motor car and movable between a position for closing and a position for opening the air inflow opening. A drive module is configured to apply a predetermined thrust force and a transmission apparatus is capable of transmitting the thrust force from the drive module to the wing to move the wing from the closed position to the open position and vice versa. The drive module includes at least one actuator made of a shape-memory alloy such that the thrust force is applied when the actuator reaches a predetermined temperature.
