Claims8
An air vent, comprising at least two movable air guide elements and/or air volume control elements, comprising a manually movable operating element for moving the air guide elements and/or air volume control elements, comprising gear mechanisms, which movably connect the operating element to the air guide elements and/or air volume control elements for moving the air guide elements and/or air volume control elements, comprising a multi-axis guide, which comprises at least two guides that movably guide the operating element rotatorily and/or translatorily in at least two axial directions, and comprising a friction damping system, which damps, by way of friction, the movement of the operating element, wherein the air vent comprises a dedicated friction damping system for each guide of the multi-axis guide of the operating element.
