Abstract
An air spout device of an automotive air conditioning system has a plurality of fins rotatably mounted in a housing. A control member having a plurality of cam grooves which determine the direction of rotation and the angle of rotation of each fin is mounted on the housing. A lever mechanism connects each fin to the control member. One end of each lever mechanism is engaged with a groove of the control member, and the other end of the lever mechanism is connected to one of the fins. Linear movement of the control member is converted by the lever mechanisms into rotation of the fins.
