Abstract

The disclosure relates to an actuating mechanism (1) for actuating a plurality of first air-guiding elements (3) of an air vent, each of which are borne about a respective first pivot axis (2). Each first air-guiding element (3) includes an integrally formed bearing element (4) extending eccentrically to the pivot axis (2) of the respective air-guiding element (3). The actuating mechanism (1) includes a manually actuatable actuating element (5) and a coupling structure (6) operatively connected to the actuating element (5). The actuating element (5) is slidably borne in a second direction (7) extending perpendicular to the longitudinal extension direction (14) of the first air-guiding elements (3), and the coupling structure (6) is configured so as to receive the bearing elements (4) of the first air-guiding elements (3) in such a way that a movement of the actuating element (5) in the second direction (7) extending perpendicular to the longitudinal extension direction (14) of the first air-guiding elements (3) can be transferred to the bearing elements (4), but not a movement of the actuating element (5) in the longitudinal extension direction (14) of the first air-guiding elements (3) or a movement of the actuating element (5) perpendicular to the longitudinal extension direction (14) of the first air-guiding elements (3) and perpendicular to the second direction (7) or a rotational movement of the actuating element (5) about an axis of rotation extending parallel to the second direction (7).
