Abstract:
Air vent device (1) for a vehicle comprising : - an air duct (2) extending along a main axis (A), - an air outlet device (6), in fluidic communication with the air duct (2), said air outlet device (6) comprising a housing (26) movable in rotation around the main axis (A), - a flexible duct (4) comprising an upstream end (10) attached to the air duct (2) and a downstream end (12) attached to the housing (26) such that a rotation of the housing (26) around the main axis (A) causes the flexible duct (4) to be twisted in a plane perpendicular to the main axis (A), said flexible duct (4) being movable between an opened position, wherein the air duct (2) is in fluidic communication with the housing (26), and a closed position, wherein the flexible duct (4) is twisted so as to prevent the fluidic communication between the housing (26) and the air duct (2). The housing (26) is attached to the downstream end (12) of the flexible duct (4) by a connection element (14) attached to the downstream end (12) of the flexible duct (4) and connected to the housing (26) by a helical cam (20), having a helical shape extending around the main axis (A), such that a rotation of the housing (26) causes a rotation of the connection element (14) around the main axis (A) and a translation of the connection element (14) along the main axis (A) to move the flexible duct (4) between the opened and closed positions.
