Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Fahrzeugleuchte der im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 genannten Art.The The invention relates to a vehicle lamp in the preamble of claim 1 mentioned type.
Insbesondere bei Personenkraftwagen der mittleren und gehobenen Preisklasse sind Leuchten vorgesehen, die bei geöffneter Tür den Türeinstiegsbereich beleuchten, um dem Fahrer bzw. einem mitfahrenden Passagier das Einsteigen vor allem bei Dunkelheit zu erleichtern.Especially in passenger cars of the middle and upper price range are Luminaires provided when opened Door the Door sill area illuminate to the driver or a passenger traveling the Getting in easier, especially in the dark.
Diese Fahrzeugleuchten sind im Allgemeinen in eine Ausnehmung des Türschwellers eingesetzt und nach oben hin durch eine transparente Lichtdurchtrittsscheibe abgedeckt, die mit der Oberfläche des Türschwellers bündig abschließt.These Vehicle lights are generally in a recess of the door sill inserted and upwards through a transparent light transmission plate covered with the surface of the door sill flush concludes.
Nachteilig an dieser Anordnung ist, dass die Gefahr besteht, dass die ein- bzw. aussteigenden Personen mit ihren Schuhen oder anderen Gegenständen die Lichtdurchtrittsscheibe einer solchen Leuchte verschmutzen oder beschädigen, wodurch es zu einer Funktionsbeeinträchtigung kommen kann.adversely this arrangement means that there is a risk that the or withdrawing persons with their shoes or other objects Dirty light passing through such a lamp or to damage, which can lead to a functional impairment.
Demgegenüber liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Fahrzeugleuchte der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, bei der die Verschmutzungs- und Beschädigungsgefahr weitestgehend beseitigt ist, so dass sie auch bei lange dauerndem Betrieb eine zuverlässige Beleuchtung des Türeinstiegsbereichs sicherstellt.In contrast, lies The invention is based on the object, a vehicle lamp of the aforementioned To create a way in which the risk of contamination and damage as far as possible is eliminated, so that it is long lasting Operation a reliable Illumination of the door entry area ensures.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe sieht die Erfindung die im Anspruch 1 zusammengefassten Merkmale vor.to solution this object, the invention summarized in claim 1 Features before.
Anders als beim Stand der Technik ist die erfindungsgemäße Fahrzeugleuchte für einen Einbau nicht mehr in den Türschweller, sondern in ein diesem Türschweller benachbartes Strukturelement des Fahrzeuges oberhalb des zu beleuchtenden Türeinstiegsbereichs ausgebildet. Das Gehäuse dieser Fahrzeugleuchte besitzt die Form eines Hohlzylinders, der an seinem vorderen, dem zu beleuchtenden Türeinstiegsbereich zugewandten Lichtaustrittsende offen ist, d.h. also dort keine Lichtdurchtrittsscheibe aufweist, die somit weder verschmutzt noch beschädigt werden kann. Dadurch, dass die durchgehende Bohrung einen sehr kleinen Durchmesser besitzt und die Lichtquelle einen im Vergleich zu diesem Durchmesser großen Abstand von der am Lichtaustrittsende befindlichen Öffnung aufweist, kann keine Beschädigung oder Verschmutzung der Lichtquelle oder den In nenwand der durchgehenden Bohrung erfolgen. Durch die hochgesetzte Anordnung der Fahrzeugleuchte über dem zu beleuchtenden Türeinstiegsbereich wird die Verschmutzungsgefahr weiter vermindert.Different as in the prior art, the vehicle lamp according to the invention for a Installation no longer in the door sill, but in a door sill adjacent structural element of the vehicle above the illuminated Door sill area educated. The housing This vehicle lamp has the shape of a hollow cylinder, the at its front, facing the door entry area to be illuminated Light exit end is open, i. So there is no light transmission window, which therefore can neither be contaminated nor damaged. Thereby, that the through hole has a very small diameter and the light source is a large distance compared to this diameter from the opening located at the light exit end can not damage or contamination of the light source or the inner wall of the continuous Drilled hole. Due to the elevated arrangement of the vehicle light over the to be illuminated door entry area the risk of contamination is further reduced.
Die Lichtquelle, vorzugsweise eine Leuchtdiode mit engem Abstrahlwinkel, ist in das dem Lichtaustrittsende gegenüberliegende, ebenfalls offene Ende des Hohlzylinders eingesteckt und wird in der durchgehenden Bohrung vorzugsweise durch eine Rastverbindung gehalten.The Light source, preferably a light emitting diode with a narrow beam angle, is in the light exit end opposite, also open Inserted end of the hollow cylinder and is in the continuous Hole preferably held by a latching connection.
Eine Alternative besteht darin, den Innendurchmesser der durchgehenden Bohrung so auf den Außendurchmesser des Leuchtdiodengehäuses abzustimmen, dass die Leuchtdiode zwar ohne weiteres von hinten in die Bohrung eingesteckt werden kann, in ihr aber einfach durch Reibungskräfte gehalten wird.A Alternative is the inner diameter of the continuous Bore so on the outside diameter to match the LED housing, that the light-emitting diode, although easily from the back into the hole can be plugged in, but held simply by frictional forces becomes.
Die Längsachse der durchgehenden Bohrung des Gehäuse-Hohlzylinders ist im eingebauten Zustand vorzugsweise schräg nach unten geneigt, so dass das austretende Lichtbündel auf den gewünschten Teil des Türeinstiegsbereiches trifft.The longitudinal axis the through bore of the housing hollow cylinder is in the installed state preferably oblique inclined downwards, leaving the emerging light beam on the wished Part of the door entry area meets.
Die Länge und der Durchmesser der durchgehenden Bohrung des Hohlzylinders können so gewählt werden, dass die Bohrungsinnenwand den Öffnungswinkel der von hinten her eingesetzten Lichtquelle weiter einschränkt, um das austretende Lichtbündel zusätzlich zu begrenzen.The Length and the diameter of the through hole of the hollow cylinder can so chosen be that the bore inner wall the opening angle from the rear The light source used further restricts the exiting light bundle in addition to limit.
Zur Erzielung eines Lichtbündel-Querschnitts, der für die Ausleuchtung einer schmalen, aber lang gestreckten Fläche auf der Oberseite des Türschwellers besonders geeignet ist, kann zusätzlich in die durchgehende Bohrung des Hohlzylinders eine schlitzförmige Blende eingesetzt sein, die dann aber vom Lichtaustrittsende einen so großen Abstand aufweist, dass eine Beschädigung oder Verschmutzung ebenfalls ausgeschlossen ist.to Achieving a light beam cross section, the for the illumination of a narrow but elongated surface the top of the door sill is particularly suitable, in addition in the through hole of the hollow cylinder a slot-shaped aperture be used, but then from the light exit end such a large distance that has damage or pollution is also excluded.
Um einen größeren Türeinstiegsbereich gleichmäßig auszuleuchten, können mehrere derartige Fahrzeugleuchten um den Türeinstiegsbereich herum gruppiert vorgesehen werden.Around to evenly illuminate a larger door entry area, can several such vehicle lights grouped around the door entry area around be provided.
Bei einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist die innere Oberfläche der durchgehenden Bohrung des Hohlzylinders matt schwarz, um jegliche Lichtreflexion zu vermeiden.at a preferred embodiment is the inner surface the through bore of the hollow cylinder dull black to any To avoid light reflection.
Alternativ kann zur Erzielung einer besonders hohen Lichtausbeute die innere Oberfläche der durchgehenden Bohrung gut reflektierend ausgebildet, beispielsweise mit einer Spiegelschicht bedampft sein.alternative can to achieve a particularly high light output, the inner surface the continuous bore formed well reflecting, for example be steamed with a mirror layer.
Diese und weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen einer erfindungsgemäßen Fahrzeugleuchte sind in den Unteransprüchen niedergelegt.These and further advantageous embodiments of a vehicle lamp according to the invention are in the subclaims resigned.
