HEADLINER AIR VENT DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18078754 titled 'HEADLINER AIR VENT DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a headliner air vent device for a vehicle that includes a housing with two outlets, one for discharging air and another for discharging air outside the vehicle. The device also includes a rotatable air guide supporter and an air guide that can move up or down to open or close the second outlet.

  • The device is designed to provide ventilation in a vehicle's headliner area.
  • The housing has two outlets, one for discharging air and another for discharging air outside the vehicle.
  • The second outlet is comparted by an inner cover and can discharge air outside the vehicle.
  • An air guide supporter is rotatable inside the housing, allowing for control of the air flow.
  • The air guide is positioned to face an outer cover that defines the second outlet.
  • The air guide can move upwards or downwards in response to rotation of the air guide supporter, selectively opening or closing the second outlet.

Potential Applications

  • Automotive industry: The headliner air vent device can be used in various types of vehicles to provide ventilation in the headliner area.
  • Public transportation: Buses, trains, and other forms of public transportation can benefit from improved ventilation systems in their vehicles.

Problems Solved

  • Insufficient ventilation: The device solves the problem of inadequate ventilation in the headliner area of vehicles, ensuring a comfortable and well-ventilated environment for passengers.
  • Limited control over air flow: The rotatable air guide supporter and movable air guide allow for precise control over the direction and intensity of the air flow, addressing the issue of limited control in existing systems.

Benefits
