ABSTRACT:
In an air duct selector, a supporting member has a grid shape, and is formed with four penetration holes. Since a film member is affixed to two fitting portions which are arranged on two ends of the supporting member, the film member is fixed on the supporting member. The supporting member and the film member are arranged in a duct to move in a vertical direction. When air flow is blown against the inside surface of the film member through the penetration holes 24a.about.24d, the film member is bent to swell against the film member, and presses against a peripheral portion of a cool air bypass opening portion to entirely cover the cool air bypass opening portion.
