Air vent
An air vent for ventilating a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle. The air vent includes an air channel, which is divided, by an air splitter, into two partial air channels, which can be steplessly partially or completely blocked for air passing through, by blocking elements, which are pivotably mounted at the air splitter. The blocking elements may be displaced by way of a ram, which can be moved in the air splitter transversely to the air channel. Either one or the other blocking element can be selectively displaced by way of the ram. The respective other blocking element, in an open position, then rests against the outside of the air splitter.
1. An air vent, comprising an air channel in which an air splitter is disposed, which divides the air channel into a first partial air channel and a second partial air channel, comprising a first blocking element by way of which the first partial air channel can be partially or completely blocked, and a second blocking element by way of which the second partial air channel can be partially or completely blocked, the two blocking elements being disposed at the air splitter, wherein the air vent comprises a displacement element, which is disposed at or in the air splitter and by way of which one of the two blocking elements can be selectively displaced, so that either the first blocking element or the second blocking element is displaced, and either the first partial air channel or the second partial air channel is partially or completely blocked, wherein the blocking elements cannot be restored by way of the displacement element.
2. The air vent according to claim 1 , wherein the displacement element is a ram and/or the displacement element rests against one side of the displaced blocking element during the displacement.
3. The air vent according to claim 1 , wherein the displacement element can be rotated about a rotational axis and comprises a displacement surface that is oblique with respect to the rotational axis, which rests against one of the blocking elements and which displaces the blocking element during rotation of the displacement element.
4. The air vent according to claim 1 , wherein the blocking elements are pivotably mounted at the air splitter.
5. The air vent according to claim 1 , wherein the displacement element is movably guided at or in the air splitter.
6. The air vent according to claim 1 , wherein the displacement element can be moved into a position in which this does not protrude from the air splitter.
7. The air vent according to claim 1 , wherein the air vent comprises a restoring element for a blocking element, which acts upon the blocking element counter to a displacement.
8. The air vent according to claim 1 , wherein a blocking element can be moved into an open position in which the blocking element rests against the air splitter in a planar manner.
9. The air vent according to claim 1 , wherein the partial air channels converge obliquely, toward an air outlet opening.
