Detailed Description

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. The embodiments are not limited to the embodiments but examples, and all the features or combinations thereof described in the embodiments are not necessarily essential to the invention.

(Structure of vehicle Lamp)

First, an outline of the structure of the vehicle lamp of the present invention will be described. Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram of a vehicle lamp 1 according to a first embodiment. The vehicle lamp 1 is a vehicle headlamp provided with a combination lamp, and a bulb is used as at least one of the lamp light sources.

The vehicle lamp 1 includes a lamp body 2 having an opening at a front thereof, and a front cover 11 formed of a translucent resin, glass, or the like and attached to the opening of the lamp body 2. A lamp chamber S is formed inside the lamp body 2 and the front cover 11.

A connector 10 connected to each lamp from the lamp ECU14 and transmitting power and commands is disposed in the lamp room S.

A bracket 7 is fixed to the periphery of the through hole 4 provided in the lamp body 2 on the lamp chamber S side, and the bracket 7 is provided with a mounting hole 5 extending from the through hole 4 at the center. The through hole 4 and the mounting hole 5 are provided for inserting the socket 8. The socket 8 having the bulb 6 mounted at the tip end thereof is inserted through the through hole 4 and the mounting hole 5, and a part of the tip end including the bulb 6 is disposed in the lamp chamber S, and the socket 8 is detachably held by the lamp body 2 via the bracket 7.

The socket 8 includes contacts on the outer peripheral surface of the housing, and is conductively connected to contacts provided on the inner surface of the mounting hole 5 of the bracket 7 in a state of being held by the bracket 7.

The lamp using the bulb 6 as a light source also receives power and control signals via the bracket 7.

When bulb 6 is replaced, socket 8 with bulb 6 mounted thereon is entirely pulled out, replaced with a new bulb 6, and retained again on bracket 7. Since the conductive connection of the new bulb 6 can be performed only by holding the socket 8 to the lamp body 2 via the bracket 7, the replacement can be easily performed and the number of man-hours can be reduced. According to this embodiment, it is not necessary to provide a connector or a sleeve disposed outside the lamp housing for conducting the lamp 6, and since all the wiring is housed in the lamp housing S, it is not necessary to perform waterproofing, and the wiring is simplified.

(first embodiment)

A specific embodiment of the present invention having the above-described structure will be described with reference to fig. 2 to 5. Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective view of the vehicle lamp 1 according to the first embodiment, showing a one-dot chain line portion of fig. 1. The upper surface side (upper side in the figure) of the lamp body 2 is the inside of the lamp chamber S, and the bottom surface side (lower side in the figure) of the lamp body 2 is the outside of the lamp chamber S. Fig. 3 shows the carriage 7, and (a) in fig. 3 is a front view, (B) is a plan view, and (C) is a right side view. Fig. 4 is a vertical sectional perspective view of the bracket 7 taken along the line IV-IV in fig. 3 (B), and fig. 5 is a perspective view of the terminal 3 provided in the bracket 7.

The vehicle lamp 1 includes a socket 8 having a bulb 6 mounted thereon, a lamp body 2, and a bracket 7.

The socket 8 includes a cylindrical body 84 as a housing. A bulb insertion port 85 into which the bulb 6 is inserted is provided at the distal end of the body portion 84, and the bulb 6 is mounted. In the present embodiment, the bulb 6 is of a wedge type, but may be of a metal socket type, and the bulb insertion opening 85 is formed in accordance with the shape of the bulb 6.

A flange 83 is provided on the rear end side of the body portion 84, and a grip portion 82 for gripping when attaching and detaching the socket 8 is formed at the end portion.

A plurality of engaging protrusions 81 are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the body portion 84 so as to protrude discretely in the circumferential direction. Further, the contact portion 9 is provided so as to be exposed between the engaging convex portion 81 and the flange 83 in the axial direction of the body portion 84. The other end side of the contact portion 9 is positioned in the bulb insertion port 85, and the bulb 6 is electrically connected when inserted into the bulb insertion port 85, so that the contact portion 9 becomes a contact with the bulb 6. The contact portions 9 are provided at three discrete positions in the circumferential direction. The vicinity of the central portion of the contact portion 9 is formed as a bulging portion in a bulging shape, and the bulging portion slightly protrudes from the outer peripheral surface of the body portion 84.

The lamp body 2 is provided with a through hole 4 through which the bulb 6 is inserted. An engaging recess 21 is formed on the inner surface of the through hole 4 so as to correspond to the engaging protrusion 81 of the socket 8. A plurality of projections 23 for hook-fixing with the bracket 7 are formed at positions circumferentially shifted from the engaging recesses 21 on the periphery of the through hole 4 on the surface of the lamp body 2 inside the lamp chamber S. Further, a positioning recess 22 is provided at a position apart from the through hole 4, and a recess for engaging with the bracket 7 to position the bracket 7 in the circumferential direction is formed in the positioning recess 22.

The bracket 7 is a cylindrical body provided with a mounting hole 5 through which the bulb 6 is inserted. The bracket 7 is hooked and fixed to the lamp body 2 by the locking arm 71 provided inside the mounting hole 5 so as to correspond to the protrusion 23 in a state where the mounting hole 5 substantially coincides with the axis of the through hole 4. A positioning protrusion 74 that engages with the positioning recess 22 of the lamp body 2 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the bracket 7 in a protruding manner, and serves as a circumferential position mark when the hook is fixed.

An engaging L-shaped recess 73 is formed inside the mounting hole 5 corresponding to the engaging projection 81 of the receptacle 8. In a state where the bracket 7 is fixed to the lamp body 2, the engaging L-shaped recess 73 extends the engaging recess 21 of the lamp body 2. The socket 8 is inserted through the through hole 4 and the mounting hole 5, and the flange 83 rotates in a state of abutting against the lamp body 2, whereby the engaging convex portion 81 engages with the engaging L-shaped concave portion 73, and the socket 8 is held by the lamp body 2 via the bracket 7.

The bracket 7 is provided with terminal recesses 75 at three positions in the circumferential direction, that is, at positions corresponding to the contact portions 9 of the receptacle 8 in a state where the receptacle 8 is held by the bracket 7. The terminal 3 is fitted into a groove 72 formed orthogonally to the terminal recess 75, and the tongue-shaped cut and raised portion 32 formed by cutting and raising is fitted into a projection 76 formed in the terminal recess 75, whereby the terminal 3 is fixed to the bracket 7. The electric wires 13 (see fig. 1, not shown in fig. 2 to 4) are engaged with the rear end sides of the terminals 3, and the bracket 7 is connected to the lamp ECU 14.

The tip end portion 31 of the terminal 3 is formed in a plate spring shape bent in a U shape, and further, the tip end is slightly bent and expanded, and slightly protrudes inward from the mounting hole 5 in a state of being fixed to the terminal recess 75 (see fig. 3B). When the receptacle 8 is held by the bracket 7, the protruding portion of the contact portion 9 as a contact of the receptacle 8 abuts on the tip portion 31 as a contact of the bracket 7 and is electrically connected. By forming the distal end portion 31 of the terminal 3 into a plate spring shape, the force required for the protruding contacts to abut against each other can be reduced by elastic deformation.

The assembly process of the vehicle lamp 1 and the replacement process of the bulb 6 will be described with reference to fig. 6. First, the electric wire 13 is engaged with the terminal 3 (fig. 6 a), the terminal 3 with the electric wire 13 engaged therewith is fixed to the bracket 7 (fig. 6B), the bracket 7 is then hooked and fixed to the lamp body 2 (fig. 6C), and finally, the socket 8 with the bulb 6 mounted at the tip thereof is inserted into the lamp body 2 and held by the bracket 7 (fig. 6D), and the contact portion 9 is electrically connected to the terminal 3 and connected to the lamp ECU 14.

When the bulb 6 is replaced, the holding with the bracket 7 is released and the socket 8 with the bulb 6 attached to the tip is pulled out from the lamp body 2 (fig. 6 (D)

Fig. 6 (C)), a new outlet 8 is installed again (fig. 6 (C)

Fig. 6 (D)). Since the connection with the receptacle 8 is completed at the same time as the installation, the replacement work is easy. In addition, the fixing of the bracket 7 is also accomplished with one operation by means of the hook fixing. Compared with the prior art, the work of taking out the electric wire from the sleeve and preparing the external connector are not needed, thereby reducing the time for replacing the bulb.

(second embodiment)

Next, a second embodiment will be described with reference to fig. 7 to 12. The same components as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.

Fig. 7 is an exploded perspective view of a vehicle lamp 101 according to a second embodiment, showing a one-dot chain line portion of fig. 1. The vehicle lamp 101 includes a socket 8 to which a bulb 6 is attached, a lamp body 102, and a bracket 107. Fig. 8 shows the bracket 107, and (a) in fig. 8 is a front view, (B) is a plan view, and (C) is a right side view. Fig. 9 is a longitudinal sectional perspective view of the bracket 107 taken along line IX-IX in fig. 8 (B). Fig. 10 is a perspective view of the insertion terminal 103A provided in the bracket 107. Fig. 11 is an explanatory diagram showing a positional relationship between the insertion terminal 103A and the bracket 107.

The difference from the first embodiment is that the bracket 107 is integrated by insert molding using the

insert terminals

103A, 103B, and 103C as contacts. A female connector portion 177 is formed in a part of the outer peripheral surface of the bracket 107 as a cylindrical body. The connector portion 177 is fitted to a male connector 10 (see fig. 1) connected to the lamp ECU 14.

The

distal end portions

131A, 131B, and 131C, which are one ends of the

insertion terminals

103A, 103B, and 103C exposed to the inner surface of the mounting hole 5, are each formed in a plate spring shape bent at 90 degrees. The end portions of the

distal end portions

131A, 131B, and 131C are slightly bent and expanded, and slightly protrude into the mounting hole 5. In order to reduce plastic deformation of the embedded

terminals

103A, 103B, 103C,

backrest portions

134A, 134B, 134C are provided at the

distal end portions

131A, 131B, 131C. In the case where the

backrest parts

134A, 134B, 134C are not present, the limit value of the amount of deflection of the plate spring-like

distal end parts

131A, 131B, 131C is large, and there is a possibility that the deflection is excessive. By providing the

backrest parts

134A, 134B, 134C, the amount of plastic deformation when the

distal end parts

131A, 131B, 131C bend can be suppressed. Thus, even when the amount of deflection of the

fitting terminals

103A, 103B, and 103C increases due to loosening or the like of the socket 8, deformation can be suppressed, and power can be stably supplied to the socket 8.

The end portions opposite to the

distal end portions

131A, 131B, and 131C are

connector connection portions

133A, 133B, and 133C exposed inside the connector portion 177. The

connector connecting portions

133A, 133B, 133C protrude as pins toward the connector portion 177, and are electrically connected by fitting the male connector 10 to the female connector portion 177. The

insert terminals

103A, 103B, and 103C are integrated with the bracket 107 by insert molding without contacting each other (see fig. 11).

The bracket 107 is not provided with a projection for positioning with the lamp body 102, and only the lamp body 102 is provided with an abutting portion 124. When the bracket 107 is fixed to the lamp body, the connector portion 177 is gripped, and the outer peripheral surface on the opposite side to the connector portion 177 is abutted against the abutting portion 124 to be positioned, whereby the bracket 107 is hooked and fixed to the lamp body 102. With this configuration, it is not necessary to provide the positioning projection on the bracket 107. The connector 177 may function as a positioning projection, and a receiving portion may be formed on the lamp body 102.

When the bracket 107 is fixed to the lamp body 102 by a hook, and the socket 8 is inserted into the through hole 4 and the mounting hole 5 and held by the bracket 107 on the lamp body 102, the protruding portion of the contact 9 of the socket 8 abuts on the

tip portions

131A, 131B, and 131C of the contact of the bracket 107 to conductively connect the two.

The assembly process of the vehicle lamp 101 and the replacement process of the bulb 6 will be described with reference to fig. 12. A male connector 10 connected to the lamp ECU14 by the electric wire 13 is fitted into the connector portion 177 (fig. 12 a), the bracket 107 is hook-fixed to the lamp body 102 (fig. 12B), and finally the socket 8 having the bulb 6 mounted at the tip thereof is inserted into the lamp body 102 and held by the bracket 107 (fig. 12C), and the contact portion 9 is electrically connected to the

fitting terminals

103A, 103B, and 103C and connected to the lamp ECU 14.

When replacing the bulb 6, the holder 107 is released from holding the bulb 6, and the socket 8 with the bulb 6 attached to the tip is pulled out from the lamp body 2 (fig. 12 (C)

Fig. 12 (B)), a new outlet 8 is mounted again (fig. 12 (B)

Fig. 12 (C)). Because the installation of the socket 8 is completed at the same timeTherefore, the connection is conducted, and the replacement operation is easy.

In the first embodiment, since the terminals are used for the contacts, a step of engaging the wires with the terminals and fixing the terminals to the bracket is required, but the step of engaging the terminals is not required by using the embedded terminals, and the step of fixing the terminals one by one is only required to fit the connector 10, so that the number of assembly steps can be significantly reduced.

(third embodiment)

Next, a third embodiment will be described with reference to fig. 13. The same components as those of the first embodiment are denoted by the same reference numerals, and description thereof is omitted.

Fig. 13 is an exploded perspective view of a vehicle lamp 201 according to a third embodiment, showing a one-dot chain line portion of fig. 1.

The vehicle lamp 201 includes a socket 208 to which the bulb 6 is attached, a lamp body 202, and a bracket 207 including a plurality of separate brackets 278.

The separate bracket 278 is a case having front and rear openings, and the terminal 203 is press-fitted into the front opening and the terminal 203 is fixed in a state in which the tip portion 231 protrudes. The electric wires 13 are engaged with the terminals 203, and the electric wires 13 extending from the rear opening of the separate bracket 278 are connected to the lamp ECU 14.

A plurality of fixing portions 225 are provided at the periphery of the through hole 4 inside the lamp chamber S of the lamp body 202. A fixing mechanism, not shown, is provided on the upper surface of the fixing portion 225 and the bottom surface of the separate bracket 278, and the separate bracket 278 is fixed to the upper surface of the fixing portion 225. Conventionally known fixing mechanisms such as hook fixing and engaging grooves are used as the fixing mechanism.

The fixing portions 225 are formed at positions spaced apart from the engagement recess 21 by an equal distance in the circumferential direction. When the socket 208 is inserted through the through hole 4 and rotated, the engaging convex portion 81 abuts against the fixing portion 225, and the socket 208 is directly held by the lamp body 202 without a bracket. The contact portion 9 of the socket 208 is arranged so as to match the position of the terminal 203, and the contact portion 9 is brought into contact with the tip portion 231 of the terminal 203 to perform conductive connection in a state where the socket 208 is held. Unlike the first embodiment, since the socket 208 is held without via a bracket, the body portion 84 of the present embodiment is formed to shorten the amount of the bracket.

Similarly to the first and second embodiments, when the bulb 6 is replaced, the socket 208 is detached and replaced with a new member, and the bulb is remounted, so that the conductive connection is also performed.

By using the separate bracket 278 for the bracket 207, the structure and the overall structure of the separate bracket 278 can be simplified.

Although the preferred embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the above embodiments are examples of the present invention, and they can be combined based on the knowledge of those skilled in the art, and such a combination is also included in the scope of the present invention.
