Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a lighting device, in particular for motor vehicles, according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • An illumination device of the aforementioned type is already known from DE 1 031 744.
  • a lighting device with a reflector and a lamp inserted in the reflector neck is disclosed.
  • To attach the bulb is provided that two over the reflector neck tensioned coil springs secure the form-fitting inserted bulbs against falling out.
  • DE 34 32 445 discloses a U-shaped clamping element made of spring steel, which is rotatably mounted at its closed end to a reflector and the free ends caused by the application of a resistance caused by the clamping force of the spring element in corresponding recesses of the reflector can be hung in such a way thereby the middle part applies a holding force on the socket against the reflector neck.
  • a lighting device with the characterizing features of claim 1.
  • the locking mechanism comprises at least one drawbar and a clamping bracket, wherein the clamping bracket is pivotally mounted on the reflector neck and is connected via lever arms with the clamping yoke, wherein the clamping bracket is suitable by depression to exert a closing force on the frame over the clamping yoke, a lighting device is provided which can be handled in an advantageous manner, since a separation between the actual operating element, the clamping bracket, and the closing element, the drawbar takes place.
  • a much higher closure force can be generated by the existing lever arm or the length of the tension bow, resulting in a secure and sealing connection between socket and reflector neck.
  • the drawbar is a wire bow with a U-shaped configuration.
  • This embodiment is simple to manufacture and has sufficient elasticity to optionally additionally build up a closure force by elongation or to compensate for manufacturing tolerances.
  • the clamping bow is a wire bow with a U-shaped configuration, wherein end of a Switzerlandbügelability is provided for pivotally receiving the drawbar, which also end lever arms are mounted in the extend substantially vertically from the clamping bracket.
  • a favorable lever arm arrangement is provided, which is for operation the drawbar is ideally suited.
  • the lever arm, deviating from a vertical position can be easily employed, so that the clamping yoke transitions in a horizontal position of the tension bracket in a favorable locking position, in which although no maximum pressure force is applied, the clamping bracket is prevented from hemming.
  • a seal between the reflector neck and the socket is provided.
  • the sealing effect between socket and reflector neck is thereby supported, on the other hand, the seal acts as a spring, so that here additional contact forces can be provided.
  • the reflector is equipped with a clamping receptacle for fastening the tension bow.
  • the clamp receptacle serves to hold the tension bow in a position in which the tension bow exerts a defined locking force on the mount. Due to the arrangement of clamping bracket, clamping bracket and lever arm results in a position of the tension bracket, in which a maximum locking force is exerted on the socket.
  • the clamping receptacle is arranged such that the receiving point for the clamping bracket is arranged in the actuating direction behind this aforementioned position, so that there is a latching of the locking mechanism.
  • the reflector neck is provided with a cam which can engage in a corresponding recess of the socket. This ensures that the socket and thus the lighting means in a predetermined position in the reflector area is introduced, so that, for example, a pre-tuned light beam path can be ensured.
  • the socket is equipped with a stop which is adapted to receive the drawbar.
  • the clamping yoke is held in a predetermined position, advantageously in the middle of the socket, so that the pressure forces can be optimally distributed over the socket.
  • the stop is a box-shaped molding of the socket, wherein the stop is equipped on the inside with contacts for the electrical supply of the lamp.
  • the stop is equally used as a covering for the contacts, which, among other things space is saved.
  • the reflector on the opposite side of the reflector neck with a cover glass air and is sealed watertight.
  • This arrangement results in a total of a lighting device which can be closed air-tight and waterproof all around, so that there is a broad field of application.
  • a lighting device 1 essentially comprises a light-emitting means 12 with a socket 2, wherein the socket 2 is suitable for connection to a reflector neck 4 of a reflector 17 and can be held by a clamping yoke 6.
  • the reflector 17 is essentially a hemispherical shell, the inside with a reflective Surface is equipped and head end is equipped with the cylindrical reflector neck 4. At the other open end of the reflector, a translucent cover glass 11 is provided, which is preferably air-tight and waterproof connected to the reflector 17. Furthermore, the reflector is equipped on the outside with various functional elements, such as mounting eyelets 18, a leaf spring 16 and a clamping receptacle 14 for an even closer to described clamping bracket 8.
  • the reflector neck 4 serves, as already shown above, for receiving the holder 2.
  • the holder 2 in turn represents the holder for the lamp 12 and is equipped for electrical supply with contacts 13.
  • the socket 2 has a recess at a defined location, in which a cam 5 of the reflector neck 4 can engage, whereby the socket 2 can be used only in a certain position in the reflector neck 4.
  • an annular seal 3 is provided between the socket 2 and the reflector neck 4, which is suitable for contributing to an airtight and watertight connection between the aforementioned elements.
  • the lighting device 1 is equipped with a locking mechanism, which consists essentially of a clamping yoke 6 and a clamping bracket 8.
  • the clamping bracket 8 is essentially a U-shaped bracket, which consists at the open end with a Switzerlandbügelability 10 and two perpendicular to the U-shaped portion arranged lever arms 15, wherein the lever arms 15 are accommodated end in a pivot bearing 9, which is located at the upper end of the reflector neck 4.
  • the clamping bracket 8 is thus pivotally mounted on the reflector neck 4, but can be mounted in a clamp receptacle 14.
  • the drawbar 6 is also a U-shaped bracket which is pivotally mounted on the Switzerlandbügelability 10 and the socket 2 can project beyond the head.
  • the version 2 is further equipped with a stop 7, to which the clamping yoke 6 can be applied.
