Ventilation arrangements for motor vehicles

A ventilation arrangement for a motor vehicle, the ventilation arrangement comprising:

• a console with a console surface in which a receptacle is formed;
• an air outlet moveably mounted on the console for movement between an opening position and a closing position, wherein in the opening position the air outlet protrudes from the receptacle and in the closing position the air outlet is at least partially flush-mounted in the receptacle;
• and
• air guiding elements configured for guiding air flowing out of an airflow opening of the air outlet, wherein the air guiding elements are at least partially displaceably mounted on a support structure of the air outlet for displacement between an opening position and a closing position, and wherein the air guiding elements in the opening position are displaceable into working positions in which adjacent air guiding elements have a larger intermediate spacing, and in the closing position can be displaced into rest positions wherein the adjacent air guiding elements have a smaller intermediate spacing than in the opening position or lie on one another,
• wherein the air guiding elements are received in opposite engagement recesses, and wherein intermediate spacings of the opposite engagement recesses grow larger with increasing distance from a console-fixed stop.

A motor vehicle comprising:

• a ventilation system;
• and
• a ventilation arrangement comprising:
• a console with a console surface in which a receptacle is formed, the receptacle coupled to the ventilation system;
• an air outlet moveably mounted on the console, wherein the air outlet can be moved into an opening position and a closing position, wherein in the opening position the air outlet protrudes from the receptacle and in the closing position the air outlet is at least partially flush-mounted in the receptacle;
• and
• air guiding elements configured for guiding air flowing out of an airflow opening of the air outlet, wherein the air guiding elements are at least partially displaceably mounted on a support structure of the air outlet for displacement between an opening position and a closing position, and wherein the air guiding elements in the opening position are displaceable into working positions in which adjacent air guiding elements have a larger intermediate spacing, and in the closing position are displaced into rest positions wherein the adjacent air guiding elements have a smaller intermediate spacing than in the working position or lie on one another,
• wherein the air guiding elements are mounted so that in the opening position they automatically reach the working positions because of gravity.
