Definitions

  • the invention relates to a headlight arrangement according to the projection type for a Motor vehicle with at least one lamp or lamp filament, a reflector system and a projection lens according to claim 1.
  • Headlight assemblies for motor vehicles are known in many different ways. Here almost all headlight assemblies for motor vehicles contain two different ones Low and high beam reflectors. The two reflectors mentioned are included either arranged side by side in a common headlight housing, or but arranged in two separate headlight housings. In both Cases, namely the quasi side by side arrangement of the reflectors are also two Light sources or two lamps necessary.
  • the high beam creates a geometrical positioning between the light source and each reflector an intense, directed across the road Cone of light for illuminating the road as well as the road environment in front the motor vehicle.
  • the dipped-beam headlights on the one hand produce between lamp and reflector and of course also the reflector based on the Headlight geometry a cone of light that is aimed exclusively at the road and therefore has a much shorter range.
  • the so-called stopping down of the said light on the road should prevent oncoming traffic from being dazzled.
  • the so-called high beam is made use of the so-called high beam.
  • the Vehicle driver visibly approaching a vehicle on the opposite lane, he engages Low beam around to dazzle the oncoming driver prevent.
  • headlight arrangements in which two separate light sources are integrated in a common halogen lamp.
  • This said Halogen lamp is then also assigned to a common reflector.
  • construction has this construction described the advantage that no more two juxtaposed reflectors are necessary, but that the same Function is represented by a common single reflector. This has to The consequence is that considerably smaller installation spaces are required in the headlight housing. Nevertheless, it is disadvantageous that the two lighting methods have one common reflector are shown because they are actually different Condition reflector geometries.
  • headlight arrangements are based on the so-called Projection system known. This is particularly used to generate the high beam a projection lens is used, in which in particular the yield due to the optics is significantly increased with the available direct light.
  • projection lenses known which have differently ground zones, so that both Low beam, as well as the high beam is generated according to the projection type.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object of a headlight arrangement Generic type to the extent that both the low beam and the high beam is generated efficiently and directed in a corresponding manner is emitted and the space required is kept compact.
  • the essence of the invention is on the one hand that even with one Headlight arrangement used according to the projection type two reflector systems , namely one for the normal reflection system and the other reflector for the projection system. Only the reflector of the projection system is along the optical axis and the projection lens is relative to the reflector of the Reflection system stationary. It should be made clear that the Projection lens is not fixed relative to the reflector of the projection system, but is stationary relative to the reflector of the reflection system.
  • the main advantage is here that on the one hand the arrangement of two reflectors with one common, the two reflectors at a suitable overlapping each other Opening is arranged extending through, and that exactly such a double Projector type reflector system arrangement, i. H. with a projection lens is working. Of course, this projection lens only collects the light from the Projection reflector.
  • the projection reflector is slidable. That means that the lens cannot be moved together with the Projection reflector, but the lens is stationary with respect to the reflection reflector and the projection reflector moves relative to it. Likewise one can otherwise possible movement of the lamp is prevented.
  • the lamp, the two reflectors and the lens on one common optical axis aligned can be advantageous Embodiment of the invention take place through a rigid connection.
  • This rigid Connection can be given by fixing on a common holding element. This means that the said lens and the reflection reflector on one common holding frame or holding element are arranged.
  • FIG. 1 shows the invention only in its essential elements.
  • the essential elements are the reflection reflector 10, the projection reflector 20, as well as the lamp 1 and the lens 30.
  • the lens 30 On the resulting optical axis is now the lens 30 at a corresponding distance positioned that it from the lamp 1 on the reflector surface of the projection reflector Collects 20 reflected light, but not the reflection light of the reflection reflector 10th
  • the arrangement according to the invention is therefore not only functionally advantageous, but also it also fulfills the requirement that the installation space be compact and unaffected hold.
  • Figures 2 and 3 contain only two configurations from the prior art, the are deliberately avoided with the invention.
  • Figure 2 shows the mobility of the Projection reflector, but the projection lens moves with it. This leads to a Ultimate stroke movement of the lens 30, which is in the appropriate position over the the space actually required protrudes.
  • FIG. 3 Another possibility is shown in FIG. 3, wherein but due to the movability of the lamp itself, the installation space to the rear accordingly must be trained large. That means that even with this design there would be an increase of the installation space.
