Air curtain systems and methods for vehicle cabins

A vehicle comprising:

• an internal cabin including a row of seats and a panel disposed above the row of seats;
• and
• an air curtain system within the internal cabin, the air curtain system comprising an outflow vent including a cap releasably mounted to the panel above the row of seats, the cap having a base wall that is overlaid on the panel and defines at least one slot therethrough, wherein the cap receives an airflow generated by an airflow generator, and the at least one slot emits the airflow from the cap to form an air curtain associated with the row of seats below.

A system comprising:

• a rail operatively connected to an airflow generator of a vehicle, the rail defining a channel that conveys airflow from the airflow generator;
• and
• an outflow vent including a cap releasably mounted to a panel within the vehicle, the cap having a base wall that is overlaid on the panel and defines at least one slot therethrough, the cap defining a cavity between the panel and the base wall, wherein a first end of the cap defines an inlet opening and the first end is coupled to the rail such that the inlet opening is fluidly connected to the channel of the rail, wherein the cap receives the airflow from the rail within the cavity, and the cap emits the airflow through the at least one slot to form an air curtain within the internal cabin.
