AIR VENT FOR VEHICLES AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING SUCH AN AIR VENT

Abstract:

An air vent (1) for vehicles, including a housing (6) and a kinematic assembly (2) which can be accommodated at least partly by the housing (6) and includes two side plates (3) and at least one air-guiding element (4) which is movable between the two side plates (3) relative to the side plates (3), wherein the kinematics (5) required for coordinating movement of the at least one air-guiding element (4) are integrated into the side plates (3) or provided on the side plates (3), and wherein the side plates (3) have a shape that is independent of the kinematics (5) required for coordinating the movement of the at least one air-guiding element (4) and is at least regionally complementary to an adapter region (8) of the housing (6), such that, in order to form a kinematics module (7), the housing (6) is releasably connectable to differently configured kinematic assemblies.
