Abstract
An air guiding apparatus for a motor vehicle includes an air guiding element and a coupling device configured to positively couple movement of lateral air guiding element sections directed transversely with respect to a longitudinal direction of the vehicle to a movement of the air guiding element between a rest position and an operating position. The coupling device includes a piston configured to be guided in a cylinder in such a way that the piston carries out a rotational movement during a linear movement in the cylinder, and a rotary rocker configured to act on the piston via a cardan joint, configured to also carry out the rotational movement of the piston, and configured to convert the rotational movement of the piston into movement of the lateral air guiding element sections directed transversely with respect to the longitudinal direction of the motor vehicle.
