Air guide device
View Patent ↗An air guide device for a motor vehicle, especially a rear spoiler, which can be moved between a retracted, nonoperating position and an extended, operating position and comprises an air guide body, on which two lateral air guide body sections, which can be moved in the transverse direction of the vehicle, are arranged. It is provided that the contours of the bottom surfaces of the lateral air guide body sections facing the vehicle conform to the cooperating external vehicle contour at least when the these air guide body sections are in the operating position.
1. An air guide device for a motor vehicle that can be moved to an extended, operating position, wherein the air guide device comprises an air guide body, on which two lateral air guide body sections, which can be moved in the transverse direction of the vehicle, are arranged, wherein contours of bottom surfaces of the lateral air guide body sections facing a contour of the vehicle conform to the cooperating external vehicle contour at least when the air guide body sections are in the operating position.
2. An air guide device according to claim 1 , wherein the contours of the bottom surfaces of the lateral air guide body sections facing the vehicle conform to the cooperating external vehicle contour.
3. An air guide device according to claim 2 , wherein, as a result of the conformity of the contours of the bottom surfaces of the lateral air guide body sections to the cooperating external vehicle contour, a gap between a bottom surface of an air guide body section and its cooperating external vehicle contour is minimized when the air guide device is maintained in the operating position.
4. An air guide device according to claim 1 , wherein the bottom surface of at least one lateral air guide body section comprises at least one recess designed to be complementary with respect to the cooperating external vehicle contour.
5. An air guide device according to claim 1 , wherein an adjusting movement of the lateral air guide body sections in the transverse direction of the vehicle is coupled with an adjusting movement of the air guide body.
6. An air guide device according to claim 1 , wherein the air guide body, together with the lateral air guide body sections lie on the external vehicle contour when in the operating position.
7. An air guide device according to claim 1 , wherein, in an area of the bottom surfaces of the lateral air guide body sections, a sealing element is positioned, which seals off the gap remaining between the air guide body sections and the external vehicle contour.
8. A motor vehicle including an air guide device according to claim 1 .
9. An air guide device according to claim 1 , wherein the air guide device is a rear spoiler.
