Description

Portière de véhicule automobile com portant une source lumineuse portée par un joint intérieur  Motor vehicle door with a light source carried by an interior seal
DOMAI NE TECH N IQU E DE L'INVENTION L'invention concerne un ensemble comportant une vitre pour fermer un habitacle de véhicule automobile et au moins une première source lumineuse portée par un premier support associé, chaque première source lumineuse étant décalée transversalement par rapport à la vitre et émettant des rayons lumineux directement vers une première face libre de la vitre.  FIELD OF TECH N IQU E OF THE INVENTION The invention relates to an assembly comprising a window for closing a passenger compartment of a motor vehicle and at least one first light source carried by a first associated support, each first light source being offset transversely relative to the window and emitting light rays directly to a first free face of the window.
ARRI ERE PLAN TECH N IQU E DE L'I NVENTION I NVENTION TECH N IQU E BACKGROUND
Les constructeurs automobiles ont déjà proposé d'associer au moins une vitre pour fermer un habitacle avec une source lumineuse pour permettre de produire u ne lumière semblant émaner directement de la vitre. Cet effet peut être réalisé en d issimulant la source lumineuse dans la carrosserie du véhicule, en bordure de la vitre. Les rayons lumineux pénètrent dans la vitre et se propagent à l'intérieur de la vitre par réflexions successives entre les deux faces principales, les rayons lumineux sortant de la vitre progressivement pour donner une impression de luminescence. Automobile manufacturers have already proposed associating at least one window to close a passenger compartment with a light source to enable a light appearing to emanate directly from the window to be produced. This effect can be achieved by simulating the light source in the vehicle body, on the edge of the window. The light rays penetrate into the glass and propagate inside the glass by successive reflections between the two main faces, the light rays gradually leaving the glass to give an impression of luminescence.
Il est possible d'associer un tel dispositif avec une vitre comportant des motifs de diffusion de la lumière. Lorsque la source lumineuse est éteinte, les motifs de diffusion sont peu perceptibles à l'œil nu . En revanche, lorsq ue la source lumineuse est allumée, les rayons lumineux qui atteignent le motif de diffusion sont diffusés, donnant ainsi la sensation que le motif de diffusion est lumineux.  It is possible to associate such a device with a window comprising patterns of light scattering. When the light source is off, the scattering patterns are barely noticeable to the naked eye. On the other hand, when the light source is switched on, the light rays which reach the scattering pattern are scattered, thus giving the sensation that the scattering pattern is bright.
On a déjà proposé d'agencer des sources lu mineuses en vis-à-vis d'un chant de la vitre pour éclairer les motifs de diffusion . Or, on a constaté qu'un tel agencement n'est pas adaptable à toutes les géométries de vitres, notamment les vitres  It has already been proposed to arrange mining lu sources opposite a song on the glass to illuminate the reasons for diffusion. However, it has been found that such an arrangement is not adaptable to all the geometries of panes, in particular panes
FEUILLE DE REMPLACEMENT (RÈGLE 26) latérales coulissantes qui équipent les portières du véhicule. En outre la composition des vitres d'habitacle de véhicule automobile, réalisées en verre trempé ou en verre feuilleté ou en verre organique, tel que du polyméthacrylate de méthyle ( PM MA) ou du polycarbonate (PC), ne permet pas une propagation suffisante de la lumière pour permettre d'éclairer correctement des motifs lumineux. SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) sliding doors fitted to the vehicle doors. In addition, the composition of the panes of a motor vehicle interior, made of tempered glass or laminated glass or organic glass, such as polymethyl methacrylate (PM MA) or polycarbonate (PC), does not allow sufficient propagation of light to allow correct lighting of light patterns.
I l a déjà été proposé de faire entrer la lumière par la face extérieure de la vitre au lieu de la face de chant. A cet effet, la source lumineuse est agencée dans un joint extérieur de la portière. La source lumineuse est formée par un guide de lumière qui est éclairé par une source lumineuse indirecte.  I t has already been proposed to bring the light through the outer face of the glass instead of the edge face. For this purpose, the light source is arranged in an exterior seal of the door. The light source is formed by a light guide which is illuminated by an indirect light source.
Cependant, cette solution est onéreuse car elle impose de réaliser un joint spécifique pour ce genre d'application .  However, this solution is expensive because it requires making a specific seal for this kind of application.
En outre, l'utilisation d'un guide de lumière éclaire simultanément toute la longueur de la vitre, sans possibilité d'éclairer indépendamment différentes zones de la vitre.  In addition, the use of a light guide simultaneously illuminates the entire length of the window, without the possibility of independently lighting different areas of the window.
De plus, le joint extérieur du véhicule est conçu pour éviter que de l'eau ne s'accumule. I l est en outre indispensable de protéger les sources lumineuses de la pollution extérieure qui risque de réduire rapidement la luminosité des sources lumineuses par dépôt d'une couche de poussière. A cet égard, la source lumineuse est agencée dans un logement qui est situé au-dessous de lèvres d'étanchéité du joint. De ce fait, la source lumineuse ne peut pas éclairer la vitre au plus proche de sa portion visible depuis l'extérieur. De ce fait, les rayons lumineux ne sont visibles d'un observateur qu'après avoir pénétré à l'intérieur de la vitre.  In addition, the exterior seal of the vehicle is designed to prevent water from accumulating. I t is also essential to protect light sources from external pollution which may quickly reduce the brightness of light sources by depositing a layer of dust. In this regard, the light source is arranged in a housing which is located below the sealing lips of the joint. Therefore, the light source cannot illuminate the window as close as possible to its visible portion from the outside. As a result, the light rays are only visible to an observer after having entered the interior of the glass.
Ce passage à l'intérieur de la vitre entraîne des pertes d'intensité lumineuse. I l en résulte que le rendement lumineux d'un tel système n'est pas optimal .  This passage inside the glass causes losses of light intensity. As a result, the light output of such a system is not optimal.

Dans la suite de la description , des éléments présentant une structure identique ou des fonctions analogues seront désignés par une même référence. In the following description, elements having an identical structure or analogous functions will be designated by the same reference.
Dans la suite de la description , on adoptera à titre non limitatif des orientations longitudinale, dirigée d'arrière en avant, verticale, dirigée de bas en haut, et transversale, dirigée de l'extérieur vers l'intérieur de l'habitacle, qui sont indiquées par le trièdre "L,V,T" des figures. L'orientation verticale est indépendante de la direction de la gravité terrestre.  In the following description, we will adopt, without limitation, longitudinal orientations, directed from rear to front, vertical, directed from bottom to top, and transverse, directed from the outside towards the interior of the passenger compartment, which are indicated by the triad "L, V, T" in the figures. The vertical orientation is independent of the direction of Earth's gravity.
Dans la suite de la description , on utilisera le terme intérieur, respectivement extérieur, pour désigner un élément tourné vers l'intérieur de l'habitacle, respectivement vers l'extérieur de l'habitacle.  In the following description, the term interior, respectively exterior, will be used to designate an element facing the interior of the passenger compartment, respectively towards the exterior of the passenger compartment.
On a représenté à la figure 1 une portière 1 0 de véhicule automobile qui est destinée à fermer un habitacle (non représenté) du véhicule automobile. La portière 1 0 comporte un corps creux 1 2 inférieur et une fenêtre 14 supérieure qui est délimitée par un cadre 1 6 qui s'étend verticalement vers le haut depuis le corps creux 1 2.  There is shown in Figure 1 a door 1 0 of a motor vehicle which is intended to close a passenger compartment (not shown) of the motor vehicle. The door 1 0 comprises a lower hollow body 1 2 and an upper window 14 which is delimited by a frame 1 6 which extends vertically upwards from the hollow body 1 2.
Comme cela est représenté aux figures 2 et 3, l'espace 1 7 interne du corps creux 1 2 est délimité transversalement vers l'extérieur de l'habitacle par un panneau 1 8 de carrosserie globalement vertical longitudinal et vers l'intérieur de l'habitacle par un caisson 20 de garniture globalement vertical longitudinal. Le caisson 20 de garniture est ici réalisé en une pièce avec le cadre 1 6 de fenêtre. Le caisson 20 de garniture est ici habillé d'un panneau 1 9 intérieur de garniture. As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the internal space 1 7 of the hollow body 1 2 is delimited transversely towards the outside of the passenger compartment by a panel 1 8 of bodywork generally vertical longitudinal and towards the interior of the passenger compartment by a box 20 of generally vertical longitudinal lining. The trim box 20 is here made in one piece with the window frame 1 6. The packing box 20 is here covered with a panel 1 9 inside the packing.
Le corps creux 1 2 est ouvert vers le haut par l'intermédiaire d'une fente 21 longitudinale. La fente 21 débouche verticalement dans le plan de la fenêtre 1 4. En d'autres termes, la fenêtre 14 est agencée dans le prolongement vertical de la fente 21 .  The hollow body 1 2 is open upwards via a longitudinal slot 21. The slot 21 opens vertically in the plane of the window 1 4. In other words, the window 14 is arranged in the vertical extension of the slot 21.
La fente 21 est délimitée transversalement entre un bord 23 intérieur, formé par un bord supérieur du caisson 20 de garniture, et un bord 25 extérieur, formé par un bord supérieur du panneau 1 8 de carrosserie.  The slot 21 is delimited transversely between an inner edge 23, formed by an upper edge of the packing box 20, and an outer edge 25, formed by an upper edge of the body panel 1 8.
La fenêtre 1 4 est destinée à être fermée par une vitre 22 qui s'étend globalement dans un plan vertical longitudinal. Bien entendu, la vitre 22 peut présenter une forme légèrement galbée. La vitre 22 est délimitée transversalement dans le sens de l'épaisseur par une première face 24 libre, formant ici la face 24 intérieure de la vitre 22, et par une deuxième face 26 libre, formant ici la face 26 extérieure de la vitre 22.  The window 1 4 is intended to be closed by a window 22 which extends generally in a longitudinal vertical plane. Of course, the window 22 may have a slightly curved shape. The window 22 is delimited transversely in the thickness direction by a first free face 24, here forming the inside face 24 of the window 22, and by a second free face 26, here forming the outside face 26 of the window 22.
I l s'agit ici d'une vitre 22 réalisée en verre trempé ou en verre feuilleté ou en verre organique, tel que du polyméthacrylate de méthyle (P MMA) ou du polycarbonate (PC). La vitre 22 est monobloc.  I t here is a window 22 made of tempered glass or laminated glass or organic glass, such as polymethyl methacrylate (P MMA) or polycarbonate (PC). The window 22 is in one piece.
La vitre 22 est montée coulissante verticalement dans la fente 21 de la portière 1 0 entre une position extrême de fermeture dans laquelle elle ferme totalement la fenêtre 1 4, comme cela est représenté aux figures 1 et 2, et une position extrême d'ouverture (non représentée) dans laquelle la vitre 22 est escamotée vers le bas au moins partiellement à l'intérieur du corps creux 1 2.  The window 22 is slidably mounted vertically in the slot 21 of the door 1 0 between an extreme closed position in which it completely closes the window 1 4, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, and an extreme open position ( not shown) in which the window 22 is retracted down at least partially inside the hollow body 1 2.
Pour permettre d'éviter que de l'humidité et/ou des particules polluantes n'entrent à l'intérieur du corps creux 1 2, la fente 21 est fermée par un joint 28 intérieur d'étanchéité et par un joint 30 extérieur d'étanchéité. Les joints 28, 30 se présentent sous la forme de profilés en élastomère qui s'étendent longitudinalement. To prevent moisture and / or polluting particles from entering the interior of the hollow body 1 2, the slot 21 is closed by an inner seal 28 and by an outer seal 30. The seals 28, 30 are in the form of elastomer profiles which extend longitudinally.
Le joint 28 intérieur est interposé entre le bord 23 intérieur de la fente 21 et la face 24 intérieure en vis-à-vis de la vitre 22. En vue de profil représentée à la figure 3, le joint 28 intérieur comporte un corps 32 longitudinal qui est emboîté avec le bord 23 intérieur de la fente 21 . Le corps 32 comporte ainsi une première rainure 321 d'emboîtement qui débouche verticalement vers le bas et qui est délimitée transversalement par une paroi 322 verticale longitudinale extérieure et par une paroi 323 verticale longitudinale intérieure. La rainure 321 est en outre délimitée vers le haut par une paroi 324 supérieure horizontale qui forme un enjoliveur agencé dans la continuité d'une face supérieure du caisson 20 de garniture. Le corps 32 comporte aussi une rainure longitudinale d'emboîtement d'un bord du panneau 1 9 de garniture.  The interior seal 28 is interposed between the interior edge 23 of the slot 21 and the interior face 24 facing the window 22. In profile view shown in FIG. 3, the interior seal 28 has a longitudinal body 32 which is fitted with the inner edge 23 of the slot 21. The body 32 thus comprises a first interlocking groove 321 which opens vertically downwards and which is delimited transversely by an outer longitudinal vertical wall 322 and by an inner longitudinal vertical wall 323. The groove 321 is further delimited upwards by a horizontal upper wall 324 which forms a hubcap arranged in continuity with an upper face of the packing box 20. The body 32 also has a longitudinal groove for fitting an edge of the trim panel 1 9.
Une lèvre 34 souple flexible élastiquement s'étend transversalement vers l'extérieur depuis un bord inférieur de la paroi 322 verticale extérieure de la rainure 321 jusqu'à un bord 35 extérieur libre. La lèvre 34 est rappelée élastiquement contre la vitre 22 de manière que le bord 35 extérieur libre de la lèvre 34 soit en appui sur la face 24 intérieure de la vitre 22 pour réaliser la fonction d'étanchéité. Dans cette position contrainte contre la vitre 22, la lèvre 34 et la face 325 extérieure de la paroi 322 extérieure délimitent un logement 54.  An elastically flexible flexible lip 34 extends transversely towards the outside from a lower edge of the vertical outside wall 322 of the groove 321 to a free outside edge 35. The lip 34 is resiliently biased against the window 22 so that the free outer edge 35 of the lip 34 is in abutment on the inner face 24 of the window 22 to perform the sealing function. In this constrained position against the window 22, the lip 34 and the outer face 325 of the outer wall 322 define a housing 54.
La paroi 324 supérieure du corps 32 est prolongée transversalement vers l'extérieur par une visière 326 supérieure horizontale. La visière 326 présente un bord libre longitudinal d'extrémité extérieure qui est agencé à distance de la face 24 intérieure de la vitre 22. La visière 326 participe ainsi à délimiter le logement 54 verticalement vers le haut. Comme cela est visible à la figure 3, le logement 54 présente une ouverture 56 qui est réservée transversalement entre le bord 35 extérieur libre de la lèvre 34 et le bord libre de la visière 326. The upper wall 324 of the body 32 is extended transversely towards the outside by a horizontal upper visor 326. The visor 326 has a free longitudinal edge of the outer end which is arranged at a distance from the inner face 24 of the window 22. The visor 326 thus participates in delimiting the housing 54 vertically upwards. As can be seen in FIG. 3, the housing 54 has an opening 56 which is reserved transversely between the free outer edge 35 of the lip 34 and the free edge of the visor 326.
Le joint 30 extérieur est interposé entre le bord 25 extérieur de la fente 21 et la face 26 extérieure en vis-à-vis de la vitre 22. Le joint 30 extérieur comporte un corps 36 longitudinal qui est emboîté avec le bord 25 extérieur de la fente 21 . Le corps 36 comporte ainsi une rainure 361 d'emboîtement qui débouche verticalement vers le bas et qui est délimitée transversalement par une paroi 362 verticale longitudinale intérieure et par une paroi 363 verticale longitudinale extérieure. La rainure 361 est en outre délimitée vers le haut par une paroi 364 supérieure horizontale qui forme un enjoliveur.  The outer seal 30 is interposed between the outer edge 25 of the slot 21 and the outer face 26 facing the window 22. The outer seal 30 comprises a longitudinal body 36 which is fitted with the outer edge 25 of the slot 21. The body 36 thus comprises a nesting groove 361 which opens vertically downwards and which is delimited transversely by an inner longitudinal vertical wall 362 and by an outer longitudinal vertical wall 363. The groove 361 is further delimited upwards by a horizontal upper wall 364 which forms an embellishment.
Une lèvre 38 souple flexible élastiquement s'étend transversalement vers l'intérieur depuis un bord inférieur de la paroi 362 verticale intérieure de la rainure 361 jusqu'à un bord 39 extérieur libre. La lèvre 38 est rappelée élastiquement contre la vitre 22 de manière que le bord 39 extérieur libre de la lèvre 38 soit en appui sur la face 26 extérieure de la vitre 22 pour réaliser la fonction d'étanchéité. Dans cette position contrainte contre la vitre 22, la lèvre 38 et la paroi 362 extérieure délimitent un logement 58.  A resiliently flexible flexible lip 38 extends transversely inwards from a lower edge of the inner vertical wall 362 of the groove 361 to a free outer edge 39. The lip 38 is biased elastically against the glass 22 so that the free outer edge 39 of the lip 38 is in contact with the external face 26 of the glass 22 to perform the sealing function. In this constrained position against the window 22, the lip 38 and the outer wall 362 define a housing 58.
La paroi 364 supérieure du corps 36 est prolongée transversalement vers l'intérieur par une visière 366 supérieure horizontale. La visière 366 présente un bord libre longitudinal d'extrémité intérieure qui est agencé à distance de la face 26 extérieure de la vitre 22. La visière 366 participe ainsi à délimiter le logement 58 verticalement vers le haut.  The upper wall 364 of the body 36 is extended transversely inwards by a horizontal upper visor 366. The visor 366 has a longitudinal free edge of the inner end which is arranged at a distance from the outer face 26 of the window 22. The visor 366 thus participates in delimiting the housing 58 vertically upwards.
Contrairement au logement 54 du joint 28 extérieur, le logement 58 du joint 30 extérieur est fermé par une lamelle 367 qui s'étend depuis le dos de la lèvre 38 jusqu'à être en contact avec la visière 326. Cette lamelle 367 permet notamment d'éviter que de l'eau ou des éléments polluants ne s'accumulent dans le logement 58. Unlike the housing 54 of the outer seal 28, the housing 58 of the outer seal 30 is closed by a strip 367 which extends from the back of the lip 38 until it is in contact with the visor 326. This strip 367 allows in particular to 'to avoid no water or pollutants accumulate in the dwelling 58.
Chaque joint 28, 30 intérieur et extérieur comporte ici une unique lèvre 34, 38 souple. Les deux lèvres 34, 38 appuient sur la vitre 22 transversalement en vis-à-vis l'une de l'autre pour équilibrer les efforts appliqués à la vitre 22. Les bords 35, 39 libres des lèvres 34, 38 souples sont ici agencés sensiblement à la même hauteur que les bords libres des visières 326, 366 associées.  Each interior and exterior seal 28, 30 here has a single flexible lip 34, 38. The two lips 34, 38 bear on the window 22 transversely opposite one another to balance the forces applied to the window 22. The free edges 35, 39 of the flexible lips 34, 38 are here arranged substantially at the same height as the free edges of the associated visors 326, 366.
Comme cela est représenté à la figure 2, en position extrême de fermeture de la vitre 22, une portion inférieure de la vitre 22, dite portion 22A cachée, est cachée à l'intérieur du corps creux 1 2, tandis qu'une portion supérieure de la vitre 22, dite portion 22B visible, est visible par un observateur extérieur dans le cadre 1 6 de la fenêtre 1 4. La portion 22A cachée a été indiquée par des hachures aux figures 2 à 4. La portion 22A cachée est ici définie comme étant située au-dessous des lèvres 34, 38 des joints 28, 30 tandis que la portion 22B visible s'étend au-dessus des joints 28, 30 en position extrême de fermeture.  As shown in Figure 2, in the extreme closed position of the window 22, a lower portion of the window 22, called the hidden portion 22A, is hidden inside the hollow body 1 2, while an upper portion of the window 22, called visible portion 22B, is visible by an outside observer in frame 1 6 of window 1 4. The hidden portion 22A has been indicated by hatching in FIGS. 2 to 4. The hidden portion 22A is here defined as being located below the lips 34, 38 of the seals 28, 30 while the visible portion 22B extends above the seals 28, 30 in the extreme closed position.
La portion 22A cachée demeure à l'intérieur du corps creux The hidden portion 22A remains inside the hollow body
1 2 quelle que soit la position de la vitre 22 entre ses deux positions extrêmes. Comme représenté à la figure 2, la portion 22A cachée comporte ici une langue 40 qui s'étend verticalement vers le bas depuis le milieu du bord 42 inférieur de la vitre 22. Ainsi le bord 42 inférieur de la vitre 22 présente deux tronçons 42A, 42B d'extrémité qui sont agencées globalement parallèlement aux joints 28, 30, verticalement à proximité desdits joints 28, 30, la langue 40 s'étendant verticalement vers le bas au-dessous du niveau des deux tronçons 42A, 42B d'extrémité. La langue 40 est munie de trous 44 qui permettent de lier la vitre 22 avec un dispositif (non représenté) de commande en coulissement qui est dissimulé dans le corps creux 1 2. En variante non représentée de l'invention, le bord inférieur de la vitre peut comporter plusieurs langues similaires à la langue 40, par exemple deux langues. Chacune de ces langues peut être agencée à une extrémité du bord inférieur ou dans une portion centrale du bord inférieur. 1 2 whatever the position of the window 22 between its two extreme positions. As shown in FIG. 2, the hidden portion 22A here comprises a tongue 40 which extends vertically downward from the middle of the lower edge 42 of the window 22. Thus the lower edge 42 of the window 22 has two sections 42A, 42B end which are arranged generally parallel to the seals 28, 30, vertically close to said seals 28, 30, the tongue 40 extending vertically downward below the level of the two sections 42A, 42B end. The tongue 40 is provided with holes 44 which allow the window 22 to be linked with a sliding control device (not shown) which is concealed in the hollow body 12. In a variant not shown of the invention, the lower edge of the window may include several languages similar to language 40, for example two languages. Each of these languages can be arranged at one end of the lower edge or in a central portion of the lower edge.
I l est aussi prévu que la vitre 22 comporte une zone 46 marquée qui est munie de motifs 48 de diffusion de la lumière. La zone 46 marquée est ici agencée sur une bande d'extrémité inférieure de la portion 22B visible, sur toute la longueur de la vitre 22. La zone 46 marquée est ainsi mitoyenne de la portion 22A cachée de la vitre 22. Dans l'exemple représenté aux figures, le reste de la portion 22B visible ne comporte pas de motifs 48 de diffusion.  I t is also expected that the window 22 has a marked area 46 which is provided with patterns 48 of light scattering. The marked area 46 is here arranged on a lower end strip of the visible portion 22B, over the entire length of the window 22. The marked area 46 is thus adjoining the hidden portion 22A of the window 22. In the example shown in the figures, the rest of the visible portion 22B does not have any diffusion patterns 48.
Les motifs 48 de diffusion ont par exemple une fonction esthétique et/ou une fonction de communication d'information .  The diffusion patterns 48 have for example an aesthetic function and / or an information communication function.
Les motifs 48 de diffusion peuvent être réalisés soit par gravure en surface de la vitre 22, par exemple au moyen d'un laser ou par sablage, soit par gravure dans l'épaisseur de la vitre 22, par exemple au moyen d'un laser. Dans l'exemple représenté à la figure 5, les motifs 48 de diffusion sont réal isés par gravure en surface de la face 24 intérieure de la vitre 22.  The diffusion patterns 48 can be produced either by etching the surface of the window 22, for example by means of a laser or by sandblasting, or by etching the thickness of the window 22, for example by means of a laser . In the example shown in FIG. 5, the diffusion patterns 48 are produced by surface etching of the inner face 24 of the window 22.
Comme cela est représenté à la figure 4, la portière 1 0 est en outre équipée d'au moins une source 50 lumineuse.  As shown in Figure 4, the door 1 0 is further equipped with at least one light source 50.
I l s'agit ici d'une source 50 lumineuse ponctuelle, formée par exemple par une diode électroluminescente. Une telle diode électroluminescente est généralement fixée sur un substrat 53, tel qu'une carte souple ou rigide à circuit imprimé. La source 50 est alimentée en électricité par une batterie (non représentée) du véhicule automobile.  This is a point light source 50, formed for example by a light-emitting diode. Such a light-emitting diode is generally fixed on a substrate 53, such as a flexible or rigid printed circuit card. The source 50 is supplied with electricity by a battery (not shown) of the motor vehicle.
Chaque source 50 lumineuse forme une source 50 lumineuse intérieure qui est décalée transversalement par rapport à la vitre 22 vers l'intérieur de l'habitacle. La première source 50 lumineuse est orientée de manière à émettre un faisceau de rayons lumineux qui atteint la vitre 22 directement par sa face 24 intérieure. Dans le contexte de l'invention, le terme "directement" signifie que les rayons lumineux ne pénètrent pas dans la vitre 22 avant d'atteindre la face 24 intérieure. Each light source 50 forms an interior light source 50 which is offset transversely relative to the window 22 towards the interior of the passenger compartment. The first light source 50 is oriented so as to emit a beam of light rays which reach the window 22 directly through its inner face 24. In the context of the invention, the term "directly" means that the light rays do not penetrate into the window 22 before reaching the inner face 24.
Plus particulièrement, le faisceau de rayons lumineux est orienté en direction de la zone 46 marquée pour éclairer au moins une partie des motifs 48 de diffusion.  More particularly, the beam of light rays is oriented in the direction of the zone 46 marked to illuminate at least part of the patterns 48 of diffusion.
Comme cela est représenté schématiquement par les flèches "r" de la figure 4, les rayons lumineux émis par la source 50 lumineuse atteignent la portion 22B visible de la vitre 22 par sa face 24 intérieure. Plus particulièrement, les rayons lumineux "r" atteignent la portion 46 marquée de la vitre par sa face 24 intérieure.  As shown diagrammatically by the arrows "r" in FIG. 4, the light rays emitted by the light source 50 reach the visible portion 22B of the window 22 through its inner face 24. More particularly, the light rays "r" reach the portion 46 marked with the glass by its inner face 24.
Les rayons lumineux "d" atteignant les motifs 48 de diffusion réalisés sur la face 24 intérieure de la vitre 22 sont diffusés dans toutes les directions, c'est-à-dire vers l'intérieur de l'habitacle, d'une part, et vers l'intérieur de la vitre 22 avant de ressortir par la face 26 extérieure vers l'extérieur de l'habitacle, d'autre part.  The light rays "d" reaching the diffusion patterns 48 produced on the inner face 24 of the window 22 are diffused in all directions, that is to say towards the interior of the passenger compartment, on the one hand, and towards the inside of the window 22 before emerging through the external face 26 towards the outside of the passenger compartment, on the other hand.
De cette manière, lorsque la source 50 lumineuse est allumée, le motif 48 de diffusion apparaît lumineux pour un observateur situé à l'intérieur ou à l'extérieur de l'habitacle.  In this way, when the light source 50 is on, the diffusion pattern 48 appears bright for an observer located inside or outside the passenger compartment.
La zone 46 marquée s'étend sur toute la longueur de la vitre 22. Pour permettre de l'éclairer entièrement, la portière 1 0 comporte avantageusement un groupe de plusieurs sources 50 lumineuses agencées du côté intérieur de la vitre 22. Le groupe de sources 50 lumineuses est par exemple formé par une bande de diodes électroluminescentes. Toutes les diodes électroluminescentes du groupe sont ainsi alignées longitudinalement. Chaque source 50 lumineuse est ainsi susceptible d'éclairer une portion de la zone 46 marquée.  The zone 46 marked extends over the entire length of the window 22. To allow it to be fully illuminated, the door 1 0 advantageously comprises a group of several light sources 50 arranged on the inside of the window 22. The group of sources 50 light is for example formed by a strip of light emitting diodes. All the light-emitting diodes in the group are thus aligned longitudinally. Each light source 50 is thus capable of illuminating a portion of the marked area 46.
Avantageusement, chaque source 50 lumineuse ponctuelle est susceptible d'être commandée individuellement entre un état éteint et un état allumé. De cette manière, il est possible d'éclairer seulement une partie de la zone 46 marquée selon le contexte d'utilisation du véhicule et/ou selon les désirs du conducteur. Advantageously, each point light source 50 can be controlled individually between a state off and a state on. In this way, it is possible to illuminate only part of the zone 46 marked according to the context of use of the vehicle and / or according to the wishes of the driver.
Les sources 50 lumineuses sont logées dans le joint 28 intérieur de la portière 1 0. Comme cela est représenté à la figure 3, les sources 50 lumineuses sont plus particulièrement agencées dans le logement 54 du joint 28 intérieur. Dans l'exemple représenté, les sources 50 lumineuses reposent sur la face extérieure de la paroi 322 extérieure du corps 32 par leur substrat 53. Ladite face extérieure forme ainsi un support 325 pour les sources 50 lumineuses.  The light sources 50 are housed in the interior seal 28 of the door 10. As shown in FIG. 3, the light sources 50 are more particularly arranged in the housing 54 of the interior seal 28. In the example shown, the light sources 50 rest on the external face of the external wall 322 of the body 32 by their substrate 53. Said external face thus forms a support 325 for the light sources 50.
Les sources 50 lumineuses sont par exemple fixées par serrage élastique entre la visière 326 et la base de la lèvre 34. Bien que ce mode de fixation puisse être suffisant, il est aussi possible de coller le substrat 53 contre le support 325.  The light sources 50 are for example fixed by elastic clamping between the visor 326 and the base of the lip 34. Although this method of fixing may be sufficient, it is also possible to bond the substrate 53 against the support 325.
Les sources 50 lumineuses sont agencées de manière à émettre des rayons lumineux en direction de l'ouverture 56 du logement 54 qui débouche directement sur la portion 22B visible de la vitre 22. Ainsi , les sources lumineuses émettent des rayons lumineux qui sortent par l'ouverture 56 pour atteindre la portion 22B visible de la vitre 22 directement par sa face 24 intérieure.  The light sources 50 are arranged so as to emit light rays in the direction of the opening 56 of the housing 54 which leads directly to the visible portion 22B of the window 22. Thus, the light sources emit light rays which exit through the opening 56 to reach the visible portion 22B of the window 22 directly from its inner face 24.
Pour permettre de diriger plus précisément les rayons lumineux vers l'ouverture 56, la source 50 lumineuse peut être équipée de moyens optiques de modification de la di rection de propagation des rayons lumineux tels que des lentil les optiques, des réflecteurs, ou une combinaison de ces éléments. Dans l'exemple représenté à la figure 5, la source 50 lumineuse présente un réflecteur 60 qui permet de rediriger les rayons lumineux émis vers la lèvre 34 en direction de l'ouverture 56.  To allow the light rays to be directed more precisely towards the aperture 56, the light source 50 can be equipped with optical means for modifying the direction of propagation of the light rays such as lenses, optics, reflectors, or a combination of these elements. In the example shown in FIG. 5, the light source 50 has a reflector 60 which makes it possible to redirect the light rays emitted towards the lip 34 in the direction of the opening 56.
Avantageusement, les sources 50 lumineuses sont agencées pour que les rayons lumineux atteignent la vitre directement par la zone 46 marquée pour éclairer au moins une partie des motifs 48 de diffusion. Dans cette configuration , le rendement des sources lumineuses est maximal car les rayons lumineux atteignent directement les motifs 48 de diffusion . Advantageously, the light sources 50 are arranged so that the light rays reach the window directly through the zone 46 marked to illuminate at least one part of the reasons for diffusion 48. In this configuration, the efficiency of the light sources is maximum because the light rays directly reach the diffusion patterns 48.
La présence de la visière 326 permet avantageusement d'éviter que les sources lumineuses ne soient directement visibles depuis l'habitacle ou depuis l'extérieur du véhicule.  The presence of the visor 326 advantageously makes it possible to prevent the light sources from being directly visible from the passenger compartment or from outside the vehicle.
Lorsque la portière 1 0 est équipée d'un groupe de sources 50 lumineuses, le support 325 est avantageusement commun à toutes les sources 50 lumineuses qui sont agencées longitudinalement en ligne sur dans le logement 54 sur ledit support 325.  When the door 10 is equipped with a group of light sources 50, the support 325 is advantageously common to all the light sources 50 which are arranged longitudinally in line on in the housing 54 on said support 325.
Dans ce cas, les sources 50 lumineuses sont généralement réparties régulièrement sur la longueur du joint 28 intérieur avec un pas déterminé.  In this case, the light sources 50 are generally distributed regularly over the length of the interior seal 28 with a determined pitch.
On a observé que, dans certaines conditions de luminosité ambiante et lorsque plusieurs sources 50 lumineuses adjacentes sont allumées simultanément, la vitre 22 n'était pas éclairée de manière homogène par les sources 50 lumineuses. On observe ainsi une variation d'intensités lumineuses dans une direction longitudinale sur la vitre. Ainsi , des zones dites "zones chaudes" situées en vis-à-vis des sources lumineuses présentent des pics d'intensité lumineuse, tandis que des zones, dites "zones froides" interposées longitudinalement entre les zones chaudes apparaissent plus sombres.  It has been observed that, under certain ambient light conditions and when several adjacent light sources 50 are switched on simultaneously, the window 22 is not homogeneously lit by the light sources 50. We thus observe a variation of light intensities in a longitudinal direction on the window. Thus, so-called "hot zones" located opposite the light sources have peaks of light intensity, while zones, called "cold zones" interposed longitudinally between the hot zones appear darker.
Pour permettre d'éclairer la zone 46 marquée de la vitre 22 de manière homogène, évitant ainsi ces zones chaudes et froides, un diffuseur 62 de lumière indépendant de la vitre 22 est interposé entre la source 50 lumineuse et l'ouverture 56 du logement. Le diffuseur 62 de lumière est ici commun à toutes les sources lumineuses.  To make it possible to illuminate the marked zone 46 of the window 22 in a homogeneous manner, thus avoiding these hot and cold zones, a light diffuser 62 independent of the window 22 is interposed between the light source 50 and the opening 56 of the housing. The light diffuser 62 is here common to all the light sources.
En variante, chaque source 50 lumineuse est équipée d'un diffuseur de lumière individuel . Le diffuseur 62 de lumière est par exemple formé par une membrane translucide qui permet de diffuser la lumière la traversant, procurant ainsi un éclairage homogène de la zone 46 marquée de la vitre 22. As a variant, each light source 50 is equipped with an individual light diffuser. The light diffuser 62 is for example formed by a translucent membrane which makes it possible to diffuse the light passing through it, thus providing homogeneous illumination of the marked area 46 of the window 22.
Pour permettre d'allonger la durée de vie des sources 50 lumineuses, la membrane formant diffuseur 62 de lum ière renferme ici de façon étanche la ou les sources lumineuses.  In order to extend the life of the light sources 50, the membrane forming the light diffuser 62 here encloses the light source or sources in a sealed manner.
Cet agencement permet très avantageusement de pouvoir changer la vitre 22 sans avoir à démonter les sources 50 lumineuses.  This arrangement very advantageously makes it possible to be able to change the window 22 without having to dismantle the light sources 50.
En outre cet agencement permet de disposer les sources 50 lumineuses au plus près des motifs 48 de diffusion de la vitre 22, tout en camouflant les sources 50 lumineuses du regard des observateurs à l'intérieur ou à l'extérieur de l'habitacle.  In addition, this arrangement makes it possible to arrange the light sources 50 as close as possible to the patterns 48 for diffusing the window 22, while camouflaging the light sources 50 from the eyes of observers inside or outside the passenger compartment.
De plus les motifs 48 lumineux sont avantageusement directement éclairés par les sources 50 lumineuses, c'est-à-dire sans entrer dans la vitre 22 avant de les atteindre, ce qui permet de maximiser leur rendement.  In addition, the light patterns 48 are advantageously directly lit by the light sources 50, that is to say without entering the window 22 before reaching them, which makes it possible to maximize their efficiency.
L'invention a été décrite en application à des vitres latérales coulissantes. On comprendra qu'elle est aussi applicable à des vitres fixes d'habitacle de véhicule automobile, telles que des vitres latérales, des parebrises, des vitres de custodes ou des vitres de toit panoramique.  The invention has been described in application to sliding side windows. It will be understood that it is also applicable to fixed windows of the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, such as side windows, windscreens, quarter window panes or panoramic roof panes.
