"Cover"

The innovation concerns a cover, in particular as a holder plate for heating and Irish air regulation in motor vehicles.

Ss is already known to provide covers for covering car radio stanchions on the dashboard of motor vehicles. Furthermore, one knows panels, the slots for moving Eeguliersehxebern and the slots to the side Significantly, the slide divisions have symbols. Such symbols can be used in different colors and in modified forms and are intended for the driver for example, show whether the heating or fresh air supply is open or closed and, in addition to the end positions, also allow intermediate positions to be assessed. To also It is necessary to enable a good overview of the regulation made when driving at night to illuminate individual symbols.

Should a separate light source be assigned to each symbol

are, the effort is very great and the lighting system is particularly prone to failure. Is has therefore already been suggested to design the aperture so that the symbols can be illuminated by a lamp. However, this arrangement has the disadvantage that additional air prisms made of Eftastglas are required to deflect the light beam. It has also shown that on the front side of the dashboard Cover glass-like transparent plastic, e.g. made of poly (methacrylate) ester, cannot be used with advantage, since a chromium layer is vapor-deposited on this plastic with difficulty can be and this after a shorter time, for example at car maintenance or the like, is scraped off again. It was therefore customary up to now to make the diaphragm G-round bodies made of die-cast zinc to manufacture.

The task of the innovation is now to remove the lack of to avoid known facilities and an aperture, in particular to create as a holder plate for heating and Irish air regulation in motor vehicles, which in the simplest way with very little Manufacturing effort is designed so that several symbols can be illuminated by one light source.

The! Inflation consists primarily in the fact that the The cover is made of plastic, preferably polystyrene, and is provided with a chrome coating. The chromium layer can be on plastic in a simple manner, for example by vapor deposition apply permanently.

The panel according to the innovation has, as is known, slots

for moving regulating slides or switches to and there are recesses on the side of the seat braid in the panel to accommodate transparent, preferably differently colored, Symbols provided.

Another feature of the innovation are related to the aperture Illumination of the symbols from a central light source to the symbols running channels *. Rushes, hats or the like arranged. These are advantageously also coated with a chrome layer. One of the first is a substantial reduction in price and simplification of the diaphragm according to the control achieved in that instead of the known die-cast zinc part a plastic part is used that is galvanically chrome-plated or can be coated with an odoriferous layer by vapor deposition.

lach Inserting the transparent symbols into the cover can do this be covered according to a further feature of the innovation on their back by means of an aluminum foil. This will be also covers the light guide channels The arrangement is further simplified, so that additional prisms and sealing caps are unnecessary.

Further details and advantages of the inflation are given below with reference to the drawing, which shows an embodiment of the control, explained in more detail. It shows:

fig. 3 shows a partial section along the line I - I of FIG. 2 and

Mg · 4 a section along the line II - II of FIG. 2.

In the embodiment shown in the drawing is a screen 1 designed as a holder plate, which is made of plastic according to the furnace and completely covered with a chromium is covered. The cover 1 has seat braids 2, 3 »4 to Moving regulating slides 5, 6, 7 for regulating the supply of heating and fresh air to the side of the seat brace 2, 3, 4 recesses 8 are provided in the switch plate, into which transparent symbols 9 »10j 11 are inserted. These symbols can be used in different colors and in modified forms. To illuminate the individual symbols, such as Fig. 2 shows, in the diaphragm 1 channels 12-17 are provided, which from a central light source 18 to the individual symbols 9-11 get lost. The walls of the channels 12-17 are also covered with an eyelet.

Laugh, put the transparent symbols 9 - 11 in the faceplate 1 the panel on its back with one of the light guide channels covering aluminum foil 19 stuck. The symbols can also be glued into the faceplate.

The faceplate 1 has a projection 20 with a corrugation on its front side for your decoration and to increase the gloss 21 on. Sqm to enable outside lighting of the screen

a continuous gap 22 is provided according to the innovation in the panel, which runs in such a way that the emerging Lieht protrudes under the projection 20, and thus dazzling the driver is avoided. On the back of the bezel are also Receiving means 23 arranged for holding a light source

The innovation is not limited to the embodiment described and shown in the drawing. For example the renewal according to the channel routing and the arrangement of the light source can be modified as desired.
