- Patent applications WO 00/74 099 , WO 03/032 365 , WO 03/056 237 , EP 1 455 134 describe such a lamp with its support.
- the lamp and its support on one side, the support and the housing on the other side have complementary mechanical assembly means.
- the last three documents describe a lamp which is engaged in an opening of the housing from outside the housing and which is assembled by a rotational movement. This rotational movement causes the engagement of complementary assembly means of the support and the housing.
- the support is equipped with a handle that an operator can grasp by hand to rotate the support in the direction of an assembly or the opposite direction to disassemble the lamp.
- the assembly is said to internal connectivity, that is to say that the lamp with its support is connected to an inner beam to the housing that connects all the lamps to a main connector.
- the assembly is said to external connectivity, that is to say that the lamp holder is directly connected to the electrical harness of the vehicle using a connector.

- the figure 3 shows the counterpart of the support.
- the figure 4 represents the lamp mounted on the support.
- the figure 5 is a view from below of the support.
- the figure 6 shows the lamp and its support assembled to the counterpart.
- the figure 7 is illustrated an alternative embodiment of the invention.
- the projector that is represented in figure 1 includes a lamp 1, a lamp holder or support 2, and a counterpart 3.
- the figure 1 also shows partially and schematically the housing 4 of the projector.
- the counterpart 3 is intended to be assembled to the housing using known means which are not shown in the figure, for example using elastically deformable claws. This is however not limiting, and any other mechanical assembly means may also be suitable, the counterpart may also be glued or welded to the housing, or form a single piece with the housing.
- the lamp is of any suitable type and will not be described in detail.
- a transparent bulb 6 which is translucent or colored.
- the bulb encloses the light generating device, for example a filament.
- the bulb is mounted on a base 7 which has a generally cylindrical shape of revolution.
- two protruding pins 8 and 9 provide the electrical connection between the filament and an external power supply.
- the base 7 has in its lower part one or more recesses which are provided to cooperate with protruding shapes of the support and which form a key to allow the assembly of the lamp on its support only in a precise orientation around the l longitudinal axis that the lamp defines.
- the lamp may contain several distinct filaments, the electrical connection means and the polarizer may be constructed differently.
- the support 2 performs a function of mechanical interface, it is intended to receive the lamp 1, and it is also intended to be assembled to the counterpart 3 from outside the projector.
- the support 2 also provides the electrical connection between the lamp and the rest of the projector.
- the support 2 has a generally cylindrical shape of revolution with a shank 12 and a base 13.
- the inside diameter of the shank 12 is substantially equal to the external diameter of the base to allow the engagement of the base of the lamp inside the shank .
- the assembly of the lamp is carried out by any appropriate means.
- the wall of the barrel 12 is cut in its upper part and over part of its length. Due to the cuts, this zone of the barrel wall forms four tabs 14a, 14b, 14c, 14d. A portion of the legs, in this case the tabs 14b and 14d has a radial claw 15b, 15d oriented towards the inside of the barrel.
- the tabs 14b and 14d which bear the claws deform elastically and then return to their original shape as soon as the claw has passed a hooking shoulder carried by the base.
- the pellet is then trapped in the barrel, so the lamp is assembled to the support.
- the length of the barrel is determined according to the dimensions of the base so that the assembly occurs when the base is fully engaged in the barrel and provided that the base is well oriented around its axis so that the keying allows assembly. In principle only one claw is sufficient to achieve the attachment, but several claws are also suitable. The number of legs could also be different.
- the assembly mode of the lamp is not limiting and other assembly methods may also be suitable.
- the lamp could be assembled by bayonet type mounting, screw mounting or any other mounting mode.
- the electrical connection between the lamp and the support is made with the mechanical assembly.
- the support has at the bottom of the barrel two resilient strips of conductive material which are provided to come into contact with the pins 8 and 9 during assembly of the lamp.
- the pins 8 and 9 There could also be at the bottom of the barrel conductive bushings or any other equivalent means in which the pins engage during the assembly of the lamp also establishing an electrical contact. Any other appropriate means may also be suitable.
- the embodiment that has just been described has the advantage of allowing the disassembly of the lamp. It is sufficient to remove the claw or claws possibly using a tool to release the base and out of its housing. The lamp can then be exchanged while retaining the same support.
- the support 2 and the counterpart 3 also have assembly means that cooperate together.
- the assembly means are at the periphery of the barrel 12 and at the inner wall of a recess 26 of the counterpart 3 which is intended to receive the support 2.
- the mechanical assembly means here are of the bayonet type.
- the mechanical assembly means consist of two locking ears 20 and 21 projecting from the outer wall of the barrel 12.
- the two lugs 20 and 21 are diametrically opposed, but this is not limiting.
- the outer wall of the barrel 12 also comprises two safety lugs 22 and 23 whose function will be described later.
- the counterpart 3 has a general shape of revolution, and it is composed of a hollow body 24 extended at the base by a skirt 25 whose function will be described later.
- the body 24 has a central recess 26 which is provided to receive the shaft 12 of the support.
- the inner wall of the recess 26 is hollowed with longitudinal grooves 28 and 29 which are provided to allow the passage of the locking lugs 20, 21 and grooves 30 and 31 provided for the passage of the safety lugs 22, 23.
- each flange 34, 35 has a stopper which blocks the rotation of the support in a precise angular position. In addition to reaching the angular stop position one must go through a hard point which can be marked by a bump in the locking flange or any other suitable means.
- the assembly of the support 2 on the counterpart 3 is made by a longitudinal translation along the longitudinal axis defined by the support followed by a rotation about this axis.
- longitudinal translation is not possible.
- the mechanical assembly of the support to the counterpart also establishes the electrical continuity.
- the shaft 12 of the support has two windows 38, 39 in which conductive strips 40, 41 are housed. These slats are in electrical connection with the pins of the lamp. As we can see in figures 1 and 4 a part of these conductive strips 40, 41, passes through the windows 38, 39. These strips 40, 41 are thus projecting relative to the shaft 12 of the support.
- Different lamella embodiments are possible. According to the example shown for illustrative purposes figures 1 and 4 the lamellae form a curvature whose apex protrudes from the barrel 12.
- the counterpart 3 has on its side two recessed pillars 44, 45 in which are engaged by contactors 46, 47.
- the slats 40, 41 come into contact with the contactors 46, 47.
- the safety lugs 22, 23 at least partially cap the contactors 46, 47, thus preventing any accidental movement of these contactors relative to their housing in the counterpart.
- the recessed pillars 44, 45 each comprise a pin, 44a respectively, 45a
- the contactors 46 and 47 of the support comprise curved blades 46a and 47a respectively. It is these curved blades which are engaged in force inside the hollow pillars 44, 45.
- the curved plates 46a, 47a have a curvature whose radius is oriented towards the tenons 44a, 45a.
- the lamellae 46a, 47a, contactors 46 and 47 will be prestressed in contact against the conductive lamellae 40, 41 of the drum 12 of the support.
- the connection will remain effective, even if the projector undergoes vibrations during its operation.
- the lamellae 46a, 47a of the contactors comprise at the bottom, with respect to the figure 3 , fastening means for engaging them in force in the pillars 44, 45 and against the pin 44a, 45a, but preventing them from moving in the direction opposite to the direction of their engagement. It may be in particular claws, constituted by a folding of the bottom of the lamella upwards and on the inside of the radius of curvature the lamella 46a, 47a, or towards the tenon of the hollowed abutment, respectively 44a, 45a. .
- each pillar 44, 45 comprises an opening on a part of the counterpart 3 external to the central recess 26, to let the part of the contactors 46, 47 which is not inside the pillars 44, 45 and which will be connected to the electrical harness to supply the lamp inside the projector. This allows for an internal electrical connection of the lamp, that is to say inside the housing.
- the openings giving on an external part to the central recess 26 and the openings giving inside this central recess 26 are constituted by a slot inside the wall of the hollowed pillars 44, 45.
- embodiment allows a natural demolding along a vertical axis of the counterpart 3, when the latter is performed.
- the walls of the pillars 44 and 45 are elliptical.
- the lamellae 46a and 47a of the contactors 46 and 47 are also elliptical in order to conform to the shape of the interior of the walls of the pillars and to improve their adhesion thereto.
- the lamellae 46a and 47a comprise lightening zones of material (not shown), such as slots or crenellations, allowing the lamellae of the contactors 46 and 47 to bend more easily when the conductive lamellae 40, 41 of the barrel 12 come into contact with them.
- the part of the contactors coming into force in the pillars consists of two lamellae symmetrical to each other.
- the figure 3 represents only one lamella 46a, 47a for each contactor 46, 47.
- the second lamella would be the symmetrical lamella 46a with respect to an axis passing through the pin 44a and the opening on an external part to the central recess 26.
- the second lamella would be the symmetrical of the strip 47a with respect to an axis passing through the pin 45a and the opening on an external part to the central recess 26.
- each contactor can be indifferently mounted in the pillar 44 or the other pillar 45, which simplifies the assembly of the contactors and their implementation.
- the contactors 46 and 47 are adapted to a mode of internal connection, that is to say to a connection with a beam specific to the projector which is then connected to the vehicle's electrical harness by a general power supply connector. all the lamps of the projector.
- the contactors 46 and 47 allow a wire feed in a variable orientation, which gives great flexibility in the realization of the beam specific to the projector.
- the base 13 of the support has gripping means.
- these gripping means allow the mounting of the support in the counterpart by a manual operation, but prevent its disassembly by the same manual operation mode.
- the support is equipped with coupling means provided to cooperate with a tool in order to achieve the separation of the support with its counterpart using this tool.
- the rear part of the base has a gripping handle 50.
- This handle is composed of two portions of helical ramps symmetrical with respect to the longitudinal axis defined by the support and each comprising a helical portion, respectively 51 and 52, and a manual bearing face, respectively 53 and 54.
- the bearing faces 53 and 54 are oriented in the locking direction of the support, that is to say that they are radial relative to the axis of rotation of the support, or approximately radial provided that they provide a straight support to rotate the support about its axis of rotation in the direction of a lock. Under these conditions “approximately” means a deviation of less than 45 degrees, or preferably less than 30 degrees with respect to the defined radial orientation. Given their orientation, the bearing faces are perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the direction of locking of the support.
- the bearing faces are not necessarily flat, they can be rounded or curved. Their orientation is in fact defined according to the general direction the thrust they define.
- the helical portions 51 and 52 provide a contact surface that is approximately parallel to the locking direction of the carrier. "Approximately” here means a difference of less than 30 degrees and preferably less than 20 degrees. In these conditions although their bearing face is oriented in the direction of unlocking, they do not provide sufficient adhesion for such an unlocking can be achieved by a manual action.
- the ramp portions may be solid, or as shown they may be delimited by a peripheral wall and recessed behind this wall, provided that the recess does not allow to introduce a finger.
- an operator carries out the locking of the support by resting on the two manual support faces 53, 54 for example with the thumb and the index finger.
- the manual bearing faces 53 and 54 provide a straight support in the drive direction to the locked position. The assembly operation is thus performed manually without any difficulty.
- the helicoidal portions 51, 52 do not offer any free grip, they offer no adhesion for the hand of an operator, the bearing faces 53 and 54 are oriented opposite the direction of the operator. unlocking so that neither can be used to manually rotate the media. The bearing faces and the helical portions are therefore inoperative in the unlocking direction.
- the complementary portions of the manual bearing faces 53, 54 are not necessarily helical, and for these portions of other shapes may also be suitable provided that the bearing face of these portions remains parallel or approximately parallel to the direction of locking.
- the complementary portions could have a bearing face parallel to the locking direction, and have a terminal chamfer.
- the handle may also have a single portion with a manual bearing face and a complementary portion inoperative, or conversely three portions or more.
- the body of the counterpart is extended with a skirt 25 in which the base 13 is housed during assembly.
- the depth of the skirt is equal to or greater than the height of the base.
- the skirt 25 envelopes and protects the base 13, it prevents grasping the base by hand at its periphery and that it is rotated by adhesion in the direction of unlocking.
- the support is provided with a coupling fingerprint 56 which is provided for coupling with a tool.
- the recess 56 is a recess centered on the longitudinal axis of the support which has in section a profile with lobes of Torx type. This is not limiting and other recessed or raised sections may also be suitable, including hexagonal type, slotted, cruciform or otherwise.
- the wall of the coupling footprint has small dimensions, it is very close to the axis of rotation of the support, so that even if it was in relief it would not be possible to use it to manually unlock the support .
- the tool intended to be coupled with the support is a wrench or a screwdriver whose end has a complementary shape.
- This is a common tool, but the print may also have a specific form, that is to say different from those that currently exist on the market. In this case the tool would also be specific.
- the use of the tool makes it possible to unlock the support and extract it from the counterpart.
- a spring or other suitable device which initiates the release movement of the support at the end of unlocking.
- a seal 58 is at the base of the drum 12 of the support 2 and provides a seal with the counterpart.
- the seal may also contribute to facilitating release of the support, due to its elasticity.
- the base of the support also carries identification tabs, for example the tabs 60, 61, in relation to the characteristics of the lamp, for example its power and color.
- These tabs cooperate with corresponding recesses of the counterpart.
- These recesses are for example formed by recesses or cutouts of the skirt 25 which have not been shown in the figures. These recesses have a polarizing function relative to the nature of the lamp.
- the angular position of the tongues relative to the locking lugs is variable depending on the nature of the lamp.
- the tabs may advantageously carry inscriptions to facilitate the identification of the lamp. Any other appropriate means may also be suitable.
- the support and the counterpart are made of any suitable material, in particular they are made of a plastic material by molding.
- the support 2 which has been described has a very simple structure, and therefore a low cost. It is also possible to manufacture supports for different lamps with minor modifications of the manufacturing mold, in this case to have the identification tabs in a suitable position.
- the lamp As the lamp is removable relative to the support, it can be exchanged at the least cost because the support is reusable.
- the nature of the manual bearing faces, complementary portions and the coupling fingerprint is related to the locking mode of the support in the counterpart.
- the locking occurs by a rotational movement about the longitudinal axis of the support, which is a common mode of locking.
- For locking by translation along the longitudinal axis of the support would have a different nature of the manual bearing faces, complementary portions and the coupling fingerprint.
- figure 7 shows a lamp 67 mounted on a support 68 which is intended to be engaged and locked in a counterpart 69.
- the support 68 has a barrel 71 and on the back of the barrel a base 70 with a gripping handle 72.
- the barrel is intended to be introduced into the body 74 of the counterpart.
- the locking of the support on the counterpart is achieved here by a translational movement along the longitudinal axis defined by the support. This movement comes as a result of the translation movement for the engagement of the barrel 71 in the body 74 of the counterpart.
- the locking is carried out by any appropriate means and for example using gadroons such as the flutes 77a, 77b mounted on resilient flaps 78a, 78b which are made by cuts in the wall of the barrel 71.
- the flutes are for example guided in grooves of the body 74 having housings in which the gadroons enter the locking position. Other means for angular positioning of the support and other support means may also be suitable.
- the locking position may be optionally marked by a shoulder flange 80 of the barrel 71 which abuts against the base of the body 74.
- the operation of engaging and locking the support in the counterpart is performed by a thrust exerted on the rear face 82 of the handle.
- This face is oriented in the direction of the locking of the support, and forms because of its orientation the manual bearing face of the handle 72 of the support 68.
- the rear face 82 offers no direct grip that would exert traction on the support 68.
- the complementary portion of the thrust face is here formed by the peripheral wall 84 of the projecting portion of the handle and if necessary by the inner wall of a central recess which opens at the handle.
- the wall or walls of this complementary portion are parallel or approximately parallel to the direction of unlocking the support. According to the shape given to the base 70, the complementary portion can be extremely reduced. Whatever the case may be, the wall of this portion is therefore inoperative in order to extract the support manually, since it does not offer a sufficient gripping by adhesion to transmit to the support a force oriented in the extraction direction.
- this coupling fingerprint is formed by a recess of the base 70 of the support 68 which forms a support rim 83 for example for the blade of a screwdriver or any other suitable tool that can be operated in the manner of 'a lever.
- the rim has small dimensions, so even though it was accessible, it could not be used to manually unlock the media.
- the base of the handle may have one or more other flanges such as the flange 83, and in particular a symmetrical flange of the flange 83. The two symmetrical flanges can thus be hung with the aid of an extraction gripper.
- the edge or edges are housed inside the skirt. They are inaccessible without the help of a tool.
- the skirt 75 advantageously has two radial extensions 85 and 86. The edge of these extensions can be used as support for the tool during a lever movement.
- the support handle is released from the skirt, it can be entered manually to completely remove the support.
- the invention applies to any type of lighting device and / or signaling front or rear of a motor vehicle and any type of lamp regardless of its function, power or color.
