ABSTRACT:
An air duct door controls air flow through an air duct in a vehicle. The door has two panels connected together that slide relative to one another as a free end of the first panel pivots and the free end of the second panel is constrained to move in a fixed path to conserve space. The first panel has a central slot and the second panel has a stop member riding in the slot to limit extension of the door. Rails are used to effect sliding movement and to lock the panel members together.
