CA 2308138

An air conditioning unit discharge opening includes an inlet and outlet side and a pair of spaced walls. Each of the walls has a mounting pin formed thereon, which extends in a direction toward the other wall such that the mounting pins together define a longitudinal axis extending therebetween. An air discharge nozzle has an inlet side and an outlet side and a pair of spaced substantially planar walls. The nozzle is configured to be received within the air discharge opening with the planar walls of the nozzle in closely adjacent relationship with the planar walls of the discharge opening. Pin receiving conformations are formed on each of the planar walls of the nozzle. Each of the conformations includes an open ended slot extending into the wall from the inlet side and an arcuately shaped pin receiving socket formed at the inner end of the slot. The sockets are configured to receive the mounting pins therein in a snap-fit relationship and to allow pivotal movement of the air discharge nozzle about the longitudinal axis. In a preferred embodiment, one of the side walls defining the air discharge opening includes an outwardly extending tooth-like protuberance adjacent the mounting pin. The wall of the discharge nozzle adjacent the wall carrying the pin is provided with an arcuate tooth engaging conformation, which is adapted to releasably engage the tooth to allow movement of the air discharge nozzle upon imparting an external rotational force thereupon and yet holding the air discharge nozzle at a desired position upon release of the external force.

Unité (10) de conditionnement d'air qui possède des éléments définissant une ouverture (24) d'évacuation d'air de ladite unité (10). Les éléments d'évacuation comportent un côté entrée et un côté sortie et une paire de parois planes espacées. Chacune des parois possède une broche de montage (56, 58), formée sur ladite paroi, qui s'étend en direction de l'autre paroi de la paire si bien que les broches de montage (56, 58) définissent ensemble un axe longitudinal entre elles. Une buse (26) d'évacuation d'air possède un côté entrée et un côté sortie et une paire de parois pratiquement planes espacées. La buse (26) est configurée de manière à être reçue à l'intérieur de l'ouverture (24) d'évacuation de l'unité, les parois planes de la buse (26) étant adjacentes aux parois planes de l'ouverture (24) d'évacuation d'air. La paroi (32) de la buse (26) d'évacuation d'air adjacente à la paroi (48) portant la broche (56, 58) est dotée d'une partie saillante courbe (90) destinée à l'emboîtement avec une dent (84). Ladite partie saillante courbe est adaptée pour s'emboîter de manière libérable sur la dent (84), ce qui permet le mouvement de la buse (26) d'évacuation d'air lorsqu'une force de rotation externe est appliquée sur elle, ainsi que le maintien de ladite buse (26) dans une position désirée lorsque la force externe est relâchée.
