Abstract
An air flow management device for a vehicle includes a support and at least one deflector wall supported by an actuating system mounted on the support and configured to move the deflector wall along a predefined trajectory relative to the support between a retracted position and a deployed position. The deflector wall is mounted to rotate relative to the support about an axis of rotation so as to be able to retract in case of contact of the deflector wall with an obstacle.
