Abstract (en)

[origin: EP2557367A2] A right-left air flow direction control device (100) includes right-left deflectors (10) and connecting rods (20). Each right-left deflector (10) includes a base portion (13) defining a plane perpendicular to the center A of rotation of a rotation shaft (11), a planar portion (12), and a connection protrusion (15) extending from the base portion (13). Each connecting rod (20) includes a rod body (21), connection holes (25), rod body extended portions (22) arranged in one side edge (21 d) of the rod body (21) so as to correspond to the connection holes (25), respectively, and contact raised parts (23) arranged along the edges of the rod body extended portions, respectively, the contact raised parts being higher than the rod body (21). Upon frontward air blowing, parts near the connection holes (25) of the connecting rod (20) are held by the respective connection protrusions (15) while being prevented from separating from the connection protrusions (15) and the tops of the contact raised parts (23) and parts near the other side edge are in contact with the respective base portions (13), so that the connecting rod (20) undergoes bending deformation.
