Definitions
- the invention relates to a lamp, in particular a vehicle lamp, with a base which carries a lamp vessel and at least one light source enclosed by this and at least two out of the lamp vessel and the power supply of the at least one light source serving power supply lines, each arranged with one on the base electrical contact element are connected. Furthermore, the invention relates to a socket and a method for its production, as well as a tool for encapsulating an inserted in a mold cavity contact element.
- Such a lamp is known for example from DE 82 Ol 526 Ul the applicant.
- These conventional vehicle lamps have a translucent, one-sided sealed lamp vessel with an incandescent filament arranged therein.
- an incandescent filament whose power supply lines are each connected to an arranged on the lamp base electrical contact element, wherein in the base for introducing the power supply in each case an axially adjacent to an insertion of the contact element arranged insertion funnel is provided so that the insertion funnel of the base and the insertion bevel of con- Clock form a common insertion area.
- the contact elements are used for electrical contacting of the lamp and are integrated by means of injection molding in a plastic base part of the base.
- the power supply lines of the incandescent filament are respectively inserted into the insertion bevel of the contact element and fixed by means of a welding or soldering, in particular a laser welding.
- the insertion of the contact element is sealed in such solutions during injection molding by means of a Abdichtstempels against the horrkavtician which rests flat against the insertion, to prevent the ingress of plastic mass into the insertion.
- a disadvantage of such lamps is that during injection molding in the region between the insertion funnel of the base and the insertion bevel of the contact element may result in incomplete filling of the relatively thin-walled gap, so that the insertion funnel is formed only incomplete in the base.
- the invention is based on the object, a lamp, a method for producing a base for such a lamp, a base and a tool for encapsulating an inserted in a mold cavity contact element to provide that allow an improved insertion of the power supply lines in the contact elements with minimal manufacturing effort.
- a lamp in particular a vehicle lamp, with a base which carries a lamp vessel and at least one light source enclosed by the latter and has at least two power supply lines leading out of the lamp vessel and serving to supply the at least one light source, each with a base arranged on the electrical contact element, wherein the base for insertion of the power supply lines each having an axially spaced from an insertion of the contact element arranged insertion funnel, wherein a peripheral wall portion of the insertion funnel during injection molding of the base forms a sealing surface.
- the object is further achieved by a method for producing a base for a lamp, in which in a first step at least one contact element is introduced into a mold cavity of an injection molding unit in such a way that an insertion bevel of the contact element provided for a power supply of the lamp is sealed on one side with respect to the tool cavity is.
- a Abdichtstkov is introduced into the horrkavtician, which at least partially dips into the insertion of the contact element and seals against the convincedkavmaschine, the Abdichtstkov a circumferential inclined surface and an axially spaced therefrom sealing edge or a. has narrow sealing surface portion with which the sealing rests sealingly against a peripheral wall of the contact element.
- the object is achieved by a lamp base produced by such a method.
- a tool for encapsulating a contact element inserted in a tool cavity which has an insertion bevel, with a sealing die which dips into the insertion bevel with one end section, wherein the sealing stamp has a peripheral oblique surface and an axially spaced-apart therefrom Sealing edge or a cf. has narrow sealing surface portion, with which this sealingly abuts a peripheral wall of the contact element when forming a Verpressmark ist.
- the insertion funnel of the base is axially spaced from the insertion of the contact element, so that during the injection molding in this area reaches a complete filling and the insertion funnel is completely formed in the base.
- no interference edges are present in the transition region between the base and contact element, which prevent or make it difficult to insert the power supply lines.
- the defects extend transversely to the insertion direction and do not form the insertion of the power supply obstructing interference edges. Since the Abdichtstempel of the tool over a circumferential sealing edge or a. narrow sealing surface portion sealingly abuts the peripheral wall of the contact element, a high sealing effect is possible with respect to a flat contact with the insertion of the contact element substantially reduced contact force.
- the insertion funnel of the base is connected to the insertion bevel of the contact element via a substantially cylindrical wall portion of the base.
- the insertion funnel, the cylindrical wall section and the insertion bevel are arranged coaxially.
- An insertion region of the insertion bevel of the contact element is radially expanded in a preferred embodiment with respect to the cylindrical portion of the insertion funnel of the base. As a result, the insertion of the power supply into the contact element is further improved.
- the contact elements preferably extend at an angle of approximately 90 ° to the direction of the power supply lines.
- the contact elements used are preferably contact springs.
- the power supply lines are welded or soldered to the contact elements.
- a laser welding method is used.
- the contact element is preferably by means of the Abdichtstempels one-sided against a factory
- the cavity of the cavity is pressed sealingly in sections and the mold cavity is filled with plastic material.
- plastic material in particular a thermoplastic is used.
- the sealing surface portion of the inserted into a mold cavity for encapsulation contact element has a relation to an opening angle of the insertion greater opening angle.
- the angle of the Verpressmarkie- tion substantially corresponds to the opening angle of the Abdichtstkovs so that it forms no interference edge and does not hinder the threading of the power supply.
