Definitions
- the present invention belongs to the field of lamps for automotive vehicles, and more specifically, to the design of headlamps to avoid fogging in the outer glass.
- the permeable element is opaque enough to avoid light leakage, but offers an easier path for the dry flow to reach the glass and avoid misting. Hence, both problems are satisfactorily solved with a solution which is simple and inexpensive.
- the permeable element comprises a valve
- a valve is a suitable solution for a permeable material as defined in the present invention, since it allows water vapour to pass through but does not allow light to pass through.
- the permeable element comprises a porous material.
- a porous material is a suitable solution for a permeable material as defined in the present invention, since it allows water vapour to pass through but does not allow light to pass through.
- the whole opaque element is made of a porous material.
- these embodiments include a porous material that is able to resist loads.
- the main part of the opaque element is made of a solid material and only the second portion is made of a porous material, in order to avoid loads on this second portion.
- the first portion of the opaque element is made of plastic injection with a pore generation process. In other embodiments, the first portion of the opaque element is manufactured out of a sintering process
- the porous material is one of PTFE, pumice stone or a textile material.
- At least a portion of the opaque element is located less than 5cm from the outer glass.
- the opaque element is a bezel. In other embodiments, the opaque element is a harness cover. These are common elements in a lighting device, and are close enough to the glass so that the porosity of the first portion has a positive impact in the path of the dry flow.
- the lighting device further comprises a deflector arranged to direct an airflow from the ventilation element to the first portion of the opaque element.
- This deflector makes still easier the path of the dry flow from the ventilation element comprised in the housing and the glass which is intended to be demisted.
- the first portion has a hydrophobic or super-hydrophobic surface treatment.
- the internal face of the outer glass has an anti-mist surface treatment.
- This anti-mist treatment is also helpful to cooperate with the dry current in achieving the demisting of the glass surface.
- the light source is a solid-state light source.
- solid state refers to light emitted by solid-state electroluminescence, which uses semiconductors to convert electricity into light. Compared to incandescent lighting, solid state lighting creates visible light with reduced heat generation and less energy dissipation.
- the typically small mass of a solid-state electronic lighting device provides for greater resistance to shock and vibration compared to brittle glass tubes/bulbs and long, thin filament wires. They also eliminate filament evaporation, potentially increasing the life span of the illumination device.
- Some examples of these types of lighting comprise semiconductor light-emitting diodes (LEDs), organic light-emitting diodes (OLED), or polymer light-emitting diodes (PLED) as sources of illumination rather than electrical filaments, plasma or gas.
- FIG. 1 shows a scheme of an automotive lighting device 101 according to the state of the art.
- This lighting device comprises the following elements:
- FIG. 1 shows an automotive lighting device 1 according to the invention.
- This lighting device 1 comprises
- the opaque element 6 is a bezel, which is located between 1cm and 5cm from the outer glass.
- This bezel 6 comprises a first portion 7 which is made of a porous material.
- the location of this first portion 7 is optimum to provide the dry current the fastest path 8 to reach the outer glass.
- the path 8 of the lighting device of the invention is much more straightforward than the path 107 followed by the dry flow in the lighting devices of the state of the art.
- the bezel 6 is made of a plastic injection material, where the first portion 7 is subject to a pore formation process.
- the rest of the bezel keeps its original structure, so that it may resist loads, while the first portion is made porous to provide the advantageous feature to the lighting device.
- the porous material has a hydrophobic surface treatment, to avoid humidity being stored in the pores.
- Figure 3 shows an even more efficient lighting device 1 according to the invention.
- This embodiment comprises all the elements of the embodiment shown in the preceding figure and also comprises a deflector 9 arranged to direct the dry flow from the ventilation element 4 to the first portion 7 of the opaque element 6.
- This deflector is arranged in contact with a zone of the housing which is close to the ventilation element, and limits the path for the dry flow so that it reaches the first portion 7 sooner.
- the first portion 7 of the opaque element 6 is smaller, since the deflector 9 directs the flow towards the particular first portion, and the rest of the bezel does not receive the dry flow.
- the deflector 9 directs the flow towards the particular first portion, and the rest of the bezel does not receive the dry flow.
- Figure 4 shows a lighting device 1 according to the invention installed in an automotive vehicle 100.
- This automotive vehicle 100 will have their headlamps easily demisted without using particular and expensive active elements. There is no need to force any current, since the particularly advantageous structure of the lighting device 1 according to the invention is enough to cause demisting in a faster way than in the headlamps which are known in the state of the art.
- the bezel 6 is usually seen, but the first portion is not seen in this figure. Since solid plastic materials are aesthetically preferred to porous materials, this feature turns out to be advantageous.
