Abstract:
An air outlet device for feeding air to a vehicle interior of a motor vehicle in a controlled manner includes an air flow duct and an air outlet opening element with an air outlet opening. The air flow duct is connected to the air outlet opening element and is adapted to conduct air from an interior ventilation device into the vehicle interior via the air outlet opening. The air flow duct has a first duct segment and a second duct segment, which is arranged between the first duct segment and the air outlet opening element. The first duct segment can be displaced in direction transverse to the longitudinal axis of the first duct segment. The first duct segment is designed to control a direction of the air flowing out of the air outlet opening in accordance with the displacement of the first duct segment. At least one fin-like, movable air-conducting element is arranged in the first duct segment, can be displaced together with the first duct segment, and is adapted to control a direction of the air flowing in the first duct segment and thus a direction of the air flowing out of the air outlet opening in accordance with the position of the air-conducting element.
