Definitions
- the present invention relates to a projector of the type elliptical for a motor vehicle.
- the present invention relates more particularly to a motor vehicle headlamp, comprising a source luminous, an elliptical reflector of which a first focus is located near the source, a convergent lens a focal plane passes near a second focus of the reflector, and an occultation screen which is interposed axially, following the longitudinal optical axis of the headlamp, between the reflector and lens, and which delimits a cutoff profile in the beam light emitted by the source in order to create a beam regulation of rainy weather lighting including a area of lower illumination which is located below the cut.
- the blackout screen constitutes a diaphragm whose edge forms the cutoff profile that is reproduced towards infinity, at the front of the vehicle, by the objective formed here through the lens, to form a lighting beam comprising a cut whose shape corresponds to the cutoff profile.
- the diaphragm reproduced by the lens allows to obtain a limit darkness / clarity whose form is perfectly defined in according to the needs, with a sharpness or a desired blur.
- Regulatory beam of rainy weather lighting has the particularity of having a cutoff profile identical to that of a regulatory beam of crossing and have a zone of less illumination which is located below of the cut, inside the lighting beam.
- the regulation imposes a weakening of the illumination below the profile cut-off and to the left of the longitudinal axis of the vehicle, in the case of a traffic on the right of the roadway.
- the area of least illumination is intended to prevent the drivers traveling on the opposite lane are dazzled by the reflection of light rays on the left side of the roadway between the two vehicles traveling in opposite directions, in because of the wet condition of the roadway.
- the elliptical projector is usually planned to make several regulatory lighting beams, in particular a conventional passing beam, since the lighting beam in rainy weather is only one special situation of circulation.
- the elliptical headlamp is provided with at least a mobile occultation screen with several positions corresponding several regulatory light beams, including the beam lighting in rainy weather.
- a screen is provided occultation tilting around a horizontal transverse axis between an occultation position and a retracted position.
- This screen has a cutoff profile corresponding to a beam crossing regulation and a transverse tongue which is intended to form the area of least illumination corresponding to the lighting beam in rainy weather.
- the tab is attached to the front of the screen and it extends vertically upward. Therefore, she trains, in the lighting beam, a zone of less illumination which extends to the break.
- the lighting beam obtained is not entirely satisfactory because the tongue deteriorates the beam quality lighting near the cut.
- defocused tab creates an unbalance on the mobile screen.
- the presence of this unbalance is particularly troublesome in a projector having a drum rotatably mounted about an inclined axis in the longitudinal plane, such as the conical drum which is described in FR-A-2.815.310.
- the unbalance effect produced by the tongue defocused on the pivoting part can be a source of vibrations in the projector and it may cause wear premature engine that drives the drum.
- the presence of the defocused tab can have space problems inside the projector, and in particular mechanical interference, depending on the different angular positions occupied by the screen occultation.
- the aim of the invention is to remedy these drawbacks by offering a simple, effective and economical solution.
- the invention proposes a projector of the type previously described, characterized in that the blackout screen has at least one generally transverse portion which is made of transparent material and which extends over the cutoff profile, and in that this transparent portion of the blanking screen has a zone of less transparency which forms the zone of least illumination in the beam regulatory lighting.
- FIGs 1 and 2 there is shown a projector 10 for a motor vehicle which is produced in accordance with teachings of the invention.
- the projector 10 comprises a light source 12 and a reflector 14 of the elliptical type.
- the light source 12 is arranged globally at first focus of the elliptical reflector 14.
- a longitudinal optical axis is defined without limitation A1 which is oriented from the rear to the front, following the direction lighting of the projector 10, which corresponds to an orientation from left to right considering Figure 1.
- the projector 10 has at the front a lens holder 16 which is attached to the front axial peripheral end edge 15 of the reflector 14.
- a convergent lens 18 is mounted in the opening arranged at the forward axial end of the lens holder 16.
- the lens 18 is partially shown in the figures.
- the focal plane of lens 18 is located globally at near a second focus of the reflector 14.
- the reflector 14 and the lens holder 16 here constitute a frame of the projector 10.
- the projector 10 can furthermore include a housing (not shown) closing the frame and be protected by a protective glass (not shown).
- the projector 10 has a fixed screen, which will be called mask 20, shaped curved plate.
- the mask 20 is fixed rigidly to the frame, here by means of two transverse fastening tabs 22, 24.
- Each leg of 22, 24 is here clamped axially between a portion of the edge front device 15 of the reflector 14 and a portion of the edge device 26 vis-à-vis the lens holder 16.
- the mask 20 has a shaped vertical generator of arc of circle, whose center of curvature is arranged on the axis A1 at the front of the projector.
- mask 20, in horizontal axial section, generally follows the field curvature of the lens 18, and the mask 20 extends to near the focal plane of the lens 18.
- the mask 20 preferably extends over the entire width transverse of the reflector 14, and it extends vertically mainly in the lower half of the reflector 14.
- the upper edge 28 of the mask 20 comprises a cutout 29 centered on the optical axis A1 whose transverse width broadly corresponds to the cross-sectional width of the area useful focal point for the realization of lighting beams.
- the substantially horizontal upper edge of the blank 29 of the mask 20 extends at a determined vertical distance under the optical axis A1, so that the mask 20 obscures the majority of the light rays emitted in the reflector 14 under the optical axis A1, and let some of these rays pass between the upper edge of the cutout 29 and the optical axis A1.
- the projector 10 comprises a screen occultation 30 which is interposed axially, along the optical axis A1, between the reflector 14 and the lens 18, and delimits at least one cutoff profile 32, 34 in the beam light emitted by the source 12 in order to produce a beam regulation of rainy weather lighting said rain beam Fp.
- the occultation screen 30 is arranged at the front of the mask 20, so that it extends at least partly in the plane focal point of the lens 18.
- the occultation screen 30 and the mask 20 are provided for cooperate together to form the rain beam Fp.
- the occultation screen 30 is designed to obscure selectively part of the light rays emitted over the upper edge of the cutout 29 of the mask 20.
- the screen occultation 30 has two cutoff profiles 32, 34 adjacent which correspond respectively to two beams regulatory lighting, here a rain beam Fp and a beam of low beam, said passing beam Fc.
- the occulting screen 30 is pivotally mounted around an A2 axis contained globally in a longitudinal plane vertical, and slightly inclined relative to the vertical direction an angle between zero and forty-five degrees.
- the occultation screen 30 pivots here between a first angular position, which is shown in Figure 2, in which the projector 10 carries the rain beam Fp, and a second angular position in which the projector 10 realizes the passing beam Fc.
- the screen occultation 30 is made of transparent material.
- the occultation screen 30 is generally in the shape of a blade curved transparent having a generator, along the axis of pivoting A2, in the shape of an arc of a circle, so that the curvature of the screen 30 generally follows the field curvature of the lens 18.
- the occultation screen 30 has a lower portion blackout 36 and an upper portion 38 which passes the light rays emitted by the source 12.
- the occulting lower portion 36 is made here by the deposition of an opaque material, for example aluminum, on least one face 40, 42 generally transverse of the screen 30.
- the opaque material is deposited on both generally transverse faces 40, 42 of the screen 30.
- the upper edge 44 of the occulting portion 36 draws the two cutoff profiles 32, 34 of the illumination beams Fp, Fc associated with the screen 30.
- Part of the occulting portion 36 extends here under height of the upper edge of the cutout 29 of the mask 20, way that no light ray can reach the lens 18 passing between the upper edge of the cutout 29 and the edge bottom of the occulting portion 36.
- the upper portion 38 of the occultation screen 30 extends globally vertically to the top of the focal zone useful, with respect to the lens 18, so that all the rays luminous which serve to construct the projected lighting beam by the lens 18 pass through the transparent upper portion 38.
- the occultation screen 30 can be divided geometrically into two angular sectors 46, 48, relative to the pivot axis A2, which are substantially of the same circumferential dimension.
- a first angular sector 46 has the profile of cutoff 32 corresponding to the rain beam Fp and a second angular sector 48 has the cutoff profile 34 corresponding to the passing beam Fc.
- the cutoff profile 32 of the first sector angular 46 is substantially centered on the optical axis A1.
- the first angular position corresponds to a position said active of the first angular sector 46 and at a position called retracted from the second angular sector 48, the projector 10 realizing the rain beam Fp.
- the first angular sector 46 has a zone of lesser transparency 50 planned to form the zone of lower illumination Z in the rain beam Fp.
- the zone of least transparency 50 is arranged on the front face 42 of the first angular sector 46, above the first cutoff profile 32.
- the zone of lesser transparency 50 has a deposit of opaque material, for example likewise nature that the one forming the occulting lower portion 36, density determined so as to let some light rays that reach the area of less transparency 50.
- the density of opaque material present in the zone of lesser transparency 50 must therefore be less than density of opaque material arranged in the occulting portion 36.
- the area of less transparency 50 creates in the rain beam Fp a zone Z1 having illumination of intensity less than the illumination adjacent areas, without producing a gray area extending until the break.
- the second angular sector 48 of the occultation screen 30 has a cutoff profile 34 corresponding to a beam of crossing Fc. Unlike the first angular sector 46, it is therefore devoid of a zone of less transparency.
- the cutoff profile 34 the second angular sector 48 is substantially centered on the axis A1 optical.
- the second angular position corresponds to a position said active second angular sector 48 and at a position called retracted from the first angular sector 46, the projector 10 realizing the passing beam Fc.
- the occultation screen 30 is here provided, at its end lower 52, a fixing plate 54 which extends in a plane radial axis, relative to the pivot axis A2, which is fixed on the upper free end 56 of the drive shaft 58 of a electric motor 60.
- the drive shaft 58 here constitutes the pivot axis A2 of the occultation screen 30.
- the fixing plate 56 is made of a single piece with the occultation screen 30.
- the projector 10 By controlling the pivoting of the occultation screen 30 towards one of its two defined angular positions, the projector 10 thus realizes either a rain beam Fp, or a passing beam Fc.
- the layout of the zone of least transparency 50 on the front face 42 of the screen 30 makes it possible to shift the zone of less transparency 50 forward, the thickness of the screen 30, with respect to the focal plane of the lens 18 which is located at neighborhood of the rear face 40 of the screen 30, so that the area lesser transparency 50 is defocused and creates a zone of lesser illumination Z1 of blurred outline. This allows to achieve a relatively gradual transition of intensity of illumination between the zone of less illumination and the zone adjacent beam Fp in which the intensity of illumination is superior.
- the zone of lesser transparency 50 according to the invention allows precise and easy control of the characteristics photometric rain beam Fp.
- each face 40, 42 of the occulting screen 30 It is not essential to deposit the opaque material on each face 40, 42 of the occulting screen 30 to achieve the occulting lower portion.
- the deposit of material opaque on both sides 40, 42 reduces the cutoff chromatism, that is to say the presence of a light colored around the cut in the lighting beam Fp, Fc, which is due to the axial shift of the focal plane of the lens 18 according to the wavelength of the light rays considered.
- the zone of lesser transparency 50 can it can also be achieved by depositing opaque material on two faces 40, 42 of the occultation screen, in order to limit the chromatic effects, particularly around the periphery of the less transparency 50.
- the layer of opaque material may be constituted by a metal deposit, for example based on aluminum, or by ink.
- the zone of lesser transparency 50 may be constituted by a substantially uniform deposit, or by a frame of dots or small patterns.
- the zone of lesser transparency 50 can be achieved by a treatment of the surface of the transparent material constituting the occultation screen 30, for example by frosting, or by the making dents or hollows.
- Surface treatment can optimize the photometry of the rain beam Fp in deflecting the light rays received by the area of least transparency 50 to a zone of the rain beam Fp requiring more light intensity.
- the invention applies to other types occultation screens (not shown), in particular on a screen occultation flapping around a substantially transverse axis, such as those described in FR-A-2,831,497, or to a shading screen in the form of a disc transverse to the axis A1 optical and pivoted about a longitudinal axis.
- the blackout screen can be limited in height to the height of cutting edges 32, 34.
- it comprises a portion transparent tooth-shaped or transverse tongue vertical, which extends upwards from the cutoff edge 32 corresponding to the rain beam Fp.
- the free end of this transparent portion then comprises the deposition of opaque material forming the zone of least transparency 50.
- the transparent portion in form tooth can be made of semi-transparent ceramic.
- an occultation screen 30 which comprises a transparent upper portion crossed by all light rays forming the lighting beam, is to avoid the presence of parasitic images of the edges of the transparent portion.
- the occultation screen 30 may be made of tempered glass, or in a special glass mixture that may be suitable for operating constraints of the projector 10, particularly in which concerns the vibrations and the temperature.
- the occultation screen 30 can also be made of "glass porous ", that is to say a type of glass obtained from a gel of silica and having interstices to reduce its Volumic mass.
- glass porous that is to say a type of glass obtained from a gel of silica and having interstices to reduce its Volumic mass.
- Such a type of material 30 allows in particular to minimize the mass of the occultation screen 30, so reduce its inertia, and it helps reduce light loss by glassy reflection, because of the low refractive index of this material.
- the inclination of the pivot axis A2 limits the size of the screen occultation 30 in the projector 10. Moreover, thanks to this inclination, the angular sector 46, 48 which occupies its position retracted is lower than the angular sector 46, 48 which occupies its active position, so that the angular sector 46, 48 retracted is under the path of the light rays forming the lighting beam Fp, Fc.
- the invention has been described with an occultation screen 30 having two cut profiles 32, 34.
- the invention also applies to a projector 10 equipped with a screen occultation 30 having a single cutoff profile, or more than two cutoff profiles.
