Abstract

The door exit light is switched across a door contact switch (2). The door exit light (1) is fitted in the vertical section of the fixed bodywork side or as part of the swivelable frame of the door combined with the door contact switch. The door exit light is fitted in that vertical door frame section, which is assigned to the freely swivelable door end, pointing backwards in the travel direction. A light reflecting element (5) is provided at the freely swivelable door end or along the door lower edge, which reflects the light from the door exit light, with an open door.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Türausstiegsleuchte eines Kraft­ fahrzeuges nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a door exit lamp of a power Vehicle according to the preamble of claim 1.

Eine an der oberen Innenkante einer Kraftfahrzeugtür ange­ brachte Türausstiegsleuchte ist aus DE 29503774 U1 bekannt. Bekannt ist auch eine Türausstiegsleiste, die im unteren Be­ reich einer Armlehne der Tür angebracht ist (DE 41 31 425 C2).One on the upper inner edge of a motor vehicle door brought door exit light is known from DE 29503774 U1. Also known is a door exit ledge, which is in the lower Be richly attached to the armrest of the door (DE 41 31 425 C2).

Hiervon ausgehend beschäftigt sich die Erfindung mit dem Pro­ blem, eine Türausstiegsleuchte, die jeweils über einen Tür­ kontaktschalter geschaltet wird, unter Einbezug des Türkon­ taktschalters kostengünstiger herstellbar zu gestalten.Proceeding from this, the invention deals with the pro blem, a door exit lamp, each over a door contact switch is switched, including the door con to make tact switch cheaper to produce.

Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch eine Ausführung nach dem kennzeichnenden Merkmal des Patentanspruchs 1.This task is solved by an execution after characterizing feature of claim 1.

Zweckmäßige Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der Unteransprüche. Appropriate embodiments of the invention are the subject of Subclaims.  

Eine karosserieseitige Anordnung der erfindungsgemäß vorge­ schlagenen Türausstiegsleuchte erfolgt jeweils im unteren Be­ reich der B- oder C-Säule eines Kraftfahrzeuges. Der Licht­ strahl einer solchen Leuchte wird so ausgerichtet, daß er au­ ßer dem Bodenbereich vor der geöffneten Türöffnung auch noch das freie schwenkbare Ende der geöffneten Tür erfaßt. Durch Vorsehen eines lichtreflektierenden Elementes an dem mit Be­ zug auf die Fahrtrichtung des Fahrzeuges nach hinten weisen­ den Bereich des freien schwenkbaren Türendes wird bei der ge­ öffneten Tür auch noch ein nach hinten strahlendes Warnsignal erzeugt. Damit kann an dieser Stelle eine hier selbständig leuchtende Sicherheitsleuchte eingespart werden. Ebenso kann auch die gesamte Unterkante der Tür angestrahlt werden.A body-side arrangement of the invention The door exit light comes in at the bottom rich in the B or C pillar of a motor vehicle. The light beam of such a lamp is aligned so that it au ßer the floor area in front of the open door opening the free pivotable end of the open door is grasped. By Providing a light reflecting element on the with Be Point the train to the direction of travel of the vehicle to the rear the area of the free pivoting door end is at the ge opened the door a warning signal radiating to the rear generated. At this point, one can do this independently luminous safety light can be saved. Likewise can the entire lower edge of the door can also be illuminated.

Ist die erfindungsgemäße Türausstiegsleuchte in dem Rahmen der schwenkbaren Tür angebracht, kann von dieser selbst ein nach hinten strahlendes Warnsignal mit abgegeben werden.Is the door exit light according to the invention in the frame attached to the pivoting door, can be used by himself warning signal radiating to the rear are also emitted.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt, die ein Fahrzeug mit geöffneter Tür in perspektivischer Darstel­ lung zeigt.An embodiment is shown in the drawing a vehicle with the door open in perspective lung shows.

Eine Türausstiegsleuchte 1 mit einem in diese integrierten Türkontaktschalter 2 ist in der B-Säule eines Kraftfahrzeuges angebracht. Von der Türausstiegsleuchte 1 ist ein Leuchtstreubereich nach unten auf den vor der geöffneten Tür­ öffnung liegenden Bodenbereich gerichtet. A door exit lamp 1 with a door contact switch 2 integrated in it is mounted in the B-pillar of a motor vehicle. From the door courtesy lamp 1, a light scattering area is directed to the bottom of the opening lying in front of the opened door bottom portion.

An dem freien schwenkbaren in Fahrtrichtung nach hinten lie­ genden Ende der Tür 4 ist ein lichtreflektierendes Element 5 als leuchtendes Warnsignal bei geöffneter Tür 4 vorgesehen. Damit ein Leuchteffekt von diesem Element 5 ausgehen kann, sind auf dieses Leuchtstrahlen der Türausstiegsleuchte 1 ge­ richtet.At the free swiveling in direction of travel backwards lie constricting the end of the door 4, a light reflective element 5 is provided as a luminous warning signal when the door is open. 4 So that a lighting effect can emanate from this element 5 , are directed to this light rays of the door exit lamp 1 ge.

Die Türausstiegsleuchte 1 kann derart geschaltet sein, daß sie zusammen mit der Fahrzeugkabinen-Innenbeleuchtung aus­ schaltbar ist.The door exit lamp 1 can be switched such that it can be switched off together with the vehicle cabin interior lighting.

Für die Türausstiegsleuchte 1 kann auch ein Zeitschalter vor­ gesehen sein, durch den diese Leuchte 1 bei geöffneter Tür 4 nach Ablauf eines vorgebbaren Zeitintervalles, das beispiels­ weise drei bis fünf Minuten betragen kann, automatisch abge­ schaltet wird.For the door exit lamp 1 , a timer can also be seen through which this lamp 1 is automatically switched off when the door 4 is open after a predeterminable time interval, which can be, for example, three to five minutes.
