Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Leuchteinheit für Kraftfahrzeuge derart weiterzubilden, dass ein modernes LED-Styling mit erhöhter Brillanz und hoher Lichtausbeute erzielt wird.Object of the present invention is to develop a lighting unit for motor vehicles such that a modern LED styling with increased brilliance and high luminous efficacy is achieved.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe weist die Erfindung die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 auf.To solve this problem, the invention has the features of
Der besondere Vorteil der Erfindung besteht darin, dass eine verstärkte Brillanz des LED-Stylings dadurch erzielt wird, dass von jeweiligen Reflektorsegmenten reflektiertes Licht auf korrespondierende vorgelagerte Lichtscheibsegmente fokussiert wird. Grundgedanke der Erfindung ist es, in einer dem Reflektor vorgelagerten Lichtscheibe Lichtscheibsegmente vorzusehen, in denen dass von dem Reflektor reflektierte Licht gebündelt wird, so dass der Ort der Lichtscheibsegmente eine maximale Beleuchtungsintensität aufweisen. In den Lichtscheibsegmenten entsteht somit ein relativ heller Lichtpunkt, der den Eindruck einer der Lichtscheibe nachgelagerten Leuchtdiode als Lichtquelle vermittelt. Vorteilhaft kann eine relativ große Reflektorfläche dazu genutzt werden, dass Licht in den jeweiligen Lichtscheibsegmenten zu bündeln.The particular advantage of the invention is that an increased brilliance of the LED styling is achieved by focusing light reflected by respective reflector segments onto corresponding upstream light disk segments. The basic idea of the invention is to provide light-disk segments in a light disk arranged in front of the reflector, in which light reflected by the reflector is bundled, so that the location of the light-disk segments has a maximum illumination intensity. In the segments of the lens thus a relatively bright point of light is created, which conveys the impression of a light diode downstream LED as a light source. Advantageously, a relatively large reflector surface can be used to focus the light in the respective lens segments.
Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung weisen die Lichtscheibsegmente jeweils eine Linsenstruktur auf, so dass eine vorgegebene Lichtverteilung erzeugt wird. Dabei dienen die Flächen des Reflektorsegmentes im Wesentlichen dazu, das Licht in den jeweils zugeordneten Lichtscheibsegmenten zu bündeln, während die Lichtscheibsegmente selbst derart ausgebildet sind, eine vorgegebene Lichtverteilung zu erzeugen.According to a development of the invention, the light disk segments each have a lens structure, so that a predetermined light distribution is generated. The surfaces of the reflector segment essentially serve to bundle the light in the respectively assigned light disk segments, while the light disk segments themselves are designed to generate a predetermined light distribution.
Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung erstreckt sich der Hauptabschnitt des Reflektorsegmentes in einem Abstand zu einer optischen Achse der Leuchteinheit, der mit dem Abstand des zugeordneten Lichtscheibsegmentes zu der optischen Achse übereinstimmt. Das von dem Hauptabschnitt des Reflektorsegmentes reflektierte Hauptlichtbündel wird somit im Wesentlichen parallel zur optischen Achse in Richtung des Lichtscheibsegmentes reflektiert.According to a development of the invention, the main portion of the reflector segment extends at a distance from an optical axis of the lighting unit, which coincides with the distance of the associated light slice segment to the optical axis. The main light bundle reflected by the main section of the reflector segment is thus reflected substantially parallel to the optical axis in the direction of the light-emitting-disc segment.
Vorzugsweise ist der Hauptabschnitt des Reflektorsegmentes parabelförmig ausgebildet, wobei die Lichtquelle im Brennpunkt des Hauptabschnitts angeordnet ist. Die Hauptabschnitte der Reflektorsegmente erstrecken sich - wie die Lichtscheibsegmente - kreisringförmig um die optische Achse, so dass ein kreisförmiges LED-Styling erzeugt wird.Preferably, the main portion of the reflector segment is parabolic, wherein the light source is disposed at the focal point of the main portion. The main sections of the reflector segments extend - like the lens segments - in a circular ring about the optical axis, so that a circular LED styling is generated.
Weitere Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den weiteren Unteransprüchen.Further advantages of the invention will become apparent from the further subclaims.

Ein relativ geringer Lichtanteil, vorzugsweise der direkt von der Lichtquelle 1 nach vorne abgestrahlte Lichtanteil, wird durch den zentralen Lichtscheibabschnitt 11 nach außen abgegeben. Dieser direkt nach vorne abgestrahlte Lichtanteil bewirkt zusammen mit dem zentralen Lichtabschnitt 11 eine Homogenisierung der durch die Lichtscheibe 4 bewirkten Leuchtfläche.
