Description

Beleuchtungsvorrichtung für Kraftfahrzeuge Die Unsichtbarmachung von Nachtnebel vor dem fahrenden Auto wird dadurch erzielt, daß die Fahrbahn nicht unmittelbar durch eine Lichtquelle angeleuchtet, sondern die Lichtquelle so angeordnet ist, daß ein von Licht umgebener Schatten auf die Fahrbahn geworfen wird. Dies ist der Fall, wenn die Beleuchtungsvorrichtung am rückwärtigen Ende des Fahrzeuges so angebracht ist, daß ein Teil der Lichtstrahlen am Fahrzeugaufbau. vorbei nach vorn geworfen wird, wobei außerdem noch besondere schattenbildende Flächen am Fahrzeug angebracht sein können. Der Fahrer fährt also dem Schatten des Wagens nach, wodurch eine Sicht bei Nebel gewährleistet ist. An sich ist es bekannt, nach vorn. leuchtende Scheinwerfer am rückwärtigen Ende eines Fahrzeuges anzubringen, jedoch so, daß kein Licht am Fahrzeugaufbau vorbei unmittelbar nach vorn geworfen wird, um nämlich das Fahrzeug lediglich silhouettenhaft zu beleuchten und den Fahrer eines entgegenkommenden Wagens nicht zu blenden. Es ist auch bekannt, bei unter einem Fahrzeug angebrachten und nach vorn strahlenden Leuchten einen Teil des Lichts durch schattenwerfende Bleche abzufangen, nämlich den Teil des Lichts, der nach aufwärts gerichtet ist und den Fahrer eines entgegenkommenden ' Wagens blenden könnte. Bei einer Anordnung der Scheinwerfer gemäß der Erfindung, wenn also die Scheinwerfer hinten am Wagen angebracht sind und der Fahrer hinter dem Schatten des Wagens herfährt, sitzt der Fahrer im Schatten und blickt durch den Schatten auf die im Schatten liegende Fahrbahn. Der Fahrer sieht vom Schatten aus .in den Schatten hinein. Dieser Schatten wird duxdh das an ihm vorbeiflutende Licht iafolge des Nebels diffus aufgehellt. Dieses diffuse Licht stört den -Fahrer nicht, im Gegenteil, von seinem Sitzplatz aus ist für ihn der Nebel vor dem Wagen unsichtbar bzw. nicht sichthindernd.Lighting device for automobiles The invisibility of Night fog in front of the moving car is achieved by the fact that the road is not directly illuminated by a light source, but the light source is arranged in such a way that that a shadow surrounded by light is cast on the roadway. this is the Case when the lighting device is attached to the rear end of the vehicle is that part of the light rays on the vehicle body. thrown past forward is, with also still special shadow-forming surfaces attached to the vehicle could be. So the driver follows the shadow of the car, creating a view is guaranteed in fog. In itself it is known to move forward. glowing headlights to be attached to the rear end of a vehicle, but so that no light on Vehicle body is thrown past immediately forward, namely the vehicle only to illuminate silhouettes and the driver of an oncoming car not to dazzle. It is also known to be installed under a vehicle and forward-shining lights part of the light through shadow-casting metal sheets to intercept, namely the part of the light that is directed upwards and the Could dazzle the driver of an oncoming car. With an arrangement of the Headlights according to the invention, so if the headlights on the back dare are attached and the driver drives behind the shadow of the car, he is sitting Driver in the shade and looks through the shade at the lane in the shade.
