Definitions
- the invention relates to a headlight, in particular a motor vehicle headlight, comprising a headlight housing with a light exit opening closed by a cover plate, at least one LED light source which is arranged in at least one light module positioned in the headlight housing for generating a predetermined light distribution in front of the headlight, and a Dew protection device arranged in the headlamp housing with at least one air duct for guiding air and with at least one radiation emitter, the at least one air duct having an air inlet opening and at least one air outlet opening and the air outlet opening preferably facing the cover panel, as well as the air guided in the air duct with that from the radiation emitter generated thermal radiation can be heated.
- condensation water water that is condensed on a cool surface of objects as soon as air or gas containing water vapor is cooled below the dew point
- condensation water or condensation water The condensation on technical objects such as cover panes or in the interior of the Lahr vehicle certificate is referred to as condensation or fogging.
- the document EP 0859188 A2 relates to a headlight condensation protection, in which the waste heat from a conventional quartz bulb base of a low beam and / or a learning light lamp, which typically heats up to 900 ° C when the lamp is in operation, is directed in the direction of the cover plate of the headlight housing is conducted and heated and thus ensures a condensate-free cover plate or for condensate-free surfaces in the headlight housing.
- the document DE 102011084114 A1 relates to a conventional motor vehicle headlight with a headlight housing and a light exit opening closed by a cover plate.
- a light module for generating a predetermined light distribution in front of the vehicle.
- a fan device including a heating element with a subsequent tubular air duct is arranged in the housing, the heating element being integrated within the fan device.
- the heating element can be designed, for example, as a heating sleeve that encases the air duct from the outside, as a heating conductor, heating coil, heating band, heating mat or heating register.
- the fan device is used to circulate heated air inside the headlight housing and thus to ensure condensation-free surfaces in the headlight housing.
- the disadvantage of this embodiment is at least that the fan device, for example in the form of an axial fan with integrated heating elements, is structurally complex and also entails increased operating and maintenance costs during operation.
- a headlight for a motor vehicle has become known in which a light-emitting diode arrangement is used as the main light source. Since modern white light-emitting diodes - in contrast to conventional headlights with previously common halogen light sources - generate practically no infrared heat in the light cone, which could be used to defrost or defrost the headlight cover, this headlight has its own heat conducting agent as a headlight protection against condensation. The heat transfer agent is used to exchange heat that arises on the back of the luminous surfaces of the light-emitting diode arrangement and an air flow inside the headlamp.
- the heat conduction means is equipped with air conduction means and is preferably designed as a cooling body with cooling fins, the spaces between the cooling fins forming air conduction channels.
- the cooling fins are designed parallel to the air flow, which conducts the waste heat from the light-emitting diodes to the cover plate of the headlight. Since the heat source of the light-emitting diodes cannot be regulated, it is proposed to additionally provide a heat exchanger so that heat can optionally be supplied to the air flow with the heat exchanger or, conversely, heat can be extracted from the air flow.
- the disadvantage of this embodiment is at least that the waste heat from the light-emitting diodes is usually too low to ensure adequate heating of the cover plate of the headlight in extreme weather conditions with snowfall or fog or at particularly low temperatures. Furthermore, the intended heat transfer agent and a additionally required heat exchanger for temperature control of the air flow complex and expensive in terms of apparatus.
- Modern LED headlights are designed in such a way that the light-emitting diodes generate as little waste heat as possible.
- an air flow in direct contact with a heat sink which is usually located on the back of the luminous surfaces of the light emitting diodes, can usually reach temperatures of a maximum of 80 ° to 100 ° C, although the air flow makes its way to the cover pane has already cooled down significantly.
- the previously known concepts for rapid de-icing and defrosting of cover panes or for avoiding undesirable condensation from vehicles are therefore unsuitable if they are LED vehicle headlights.
- the device for defrosting a lighting unit which has become known from document DE 102012005874 A1, is also complex, since there several light-emitting diodes are arranged with their backs on the outside of an air duct which is arranged in the interior of a vehicle headlight.
- the air duct extends from a rear side of a reflector through this in the direction of the cover plate of the headlight. Waste heat from the engine compartment of the motor vehicle, which reaches the interior of the vehicle headlight inside the air duct from a fan located in the engine compartment, is further heated by the waste heat produced on the back of the light-emitting diodes attached to the outside of the air duct.
- the air duct has a nozzle at its front free end, which is oriented towards the cover plate.
- the disadvantage of this design is the high construction effort, namely to arrange the air duct so that this air duct protrudes through the reflector and forms a connection between the interior of the vehicle headlight and the engine compartment without disturbing the desired light distribution of the reflector. Furthermore, it is disadvantageous that the effect of this defrost V orcardi only begins for the headlight when the operating temperature of the engine in the engine compartment according to excessively high values, for example above 100 ° C. Rapid defrosting and defrosting of the cover panes of the vehicle headlight is not possible even with this complex device.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to provide a headlight with a condensation protection device for accompanying heating of the headlight, which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art described.
- the anti-condensation device is intended to ensure the shortest possible defrosting time for the cover panes of the headlamp equipped with it.
- the condensation protection device should be constructed in a simple manner inside the Be integrated into the vehicle headlights, and be inexpensive and as maintenance-free as possible when the heating system is running.
- the invention also provides a motor vehicle with at least one headlight with a condensation device.
- a headlight in particular a motor vehicle headlight, which has a headlight housing with a light exit opening closed by a cover panel, at least one LED light source which is arranged in at least one light module positioned in the headlight housing to generate a predetermined light distribution in front of the headlight, an in Headlight housing arranged dew protection device with at least one air duct for guiding air and at least one radiation emitter, wherein the at least one air duct has an air inlet opening and at least one air outlet opening and the at least one air outlet opening preferably faces the cover panel, as well as the air guided in the air duct with the from Radiation emitter generated heat radiation can be heated, the at least one radiation emitter is arranged within the air duct in the area of the air inlet opening, the air duct consisting of an I. Infrared radiation reflecting and opaque wall material is made and the air duct between the air inlet opening and the at least one air outlet opening has at least one curved longitudinal axis section with a radius of curvature
- the air duct of the anti-condensation device is expediently designed in such a way that when thermal radiation is fed in in the form of infrared radiation through the radiation emitter arranged within the air duct, the escape of visible light at the at least one air outlet opening is avoided.
- This is ensured by at least one curved longitudinal axis section between the air inlet opening on which the radiation emitter is arranged and the air outlet opening.
- the at least one air duct can have one or more curved sections.
- the air duct is shaped in such a way that visible heat radiation components of the radiation emitter are correspondingly reflected or totally reflected on the inner surfaces of the curved longitudinal axis sections of the air duct.
- the air duct is made of a wall material that reflects infrared radiation and is impermeable to light.
- the curvature of a flat curve is the change in direction when going through the curve.
- the curvature of a straight line is zero everywhere because its direction does not change.
- a circle (arc) with the radius r has the same curvature everywhere, because its direction changes equally strongly everywhere. The smaller the radius of the circle, the greater its curvature.
- Circular arc The central angle or the angle of curvature is equal to the outer angle between the circular tangents in the end points of the arc-shaped curve piece.
- a kink point is therefore a point at which a curve has its curvature and is associated with it
- the corner points of a rectangle are, for example, such kink points.
- An air duct of a condensation protection device according to the invention can thus be understood to mean one or more kink points.
- an air duct that consists of two or more straight air duct sections, the longitudinal axes of which in the form of an open polygonal line has one or more inflection points is also encompassed by the invention.
- the cross-section of the air duct is not subject to any design limits.
- the air duct can have a square, rectangular, triangular, circular or elliptical cross-section, for example, in sections or also continuously.
- the air duct can therefore - depending on the requirements and space requirements of the headlight - at least in sections be angular in the shape of a shaft or else round in the shape of a tube.
- the air duct can fork in a Y-shape, for example, and have two or more air outlet openings, from each of which heated air radiates in order to heat the cover pane.
- several air inlet openings can open into a common air outlet opening of the air duct.
- the at least one air outlet opening is preferably facing the cover plate of the headlight or at least oriented in such a way that the air outlet opening from the at least one air outlet opening outflowing heated air is guided as directly as possible in the direction of the cover plate.
- a light module has at least one light source for emitting the light to generate the light distribution, which is designed here as a light-emitting diode (LED).
- the light module has, for example, primary optics, for example in the form of a reflector and / or TIR (Total Internal Reflection) front optics, for bundling the light emitted by the semiconductor light source.
- the light module can also have secondary optics, for example in the form of a converging lens, in the beam path of the emitted light, the secondary optics projecting the bundled light to generate the light distribution on the roadway in front of the vehicle.
- a diaphragm arrangement can be provided in the light module between the primary optics and the secondary optics, the top edge of which (in the case of a vertical diaphragm arrangement) or its front edge (in the case of a horizontal diaphragm arrangement) as The cut-off line is projected onto the road in front of the vehicle.
- the air duct in a headlight, can have a first curved longitudinal axis section between the air inlet opening and the air outlet opening and at least one further, second curved longitudinal axis section spaced therefrom in the longitudinal axis direction of the air duct.
- the heated air can be brought as close as possible to the sections of the headlight housing to be heated by means of an elongated design of the air duct. It is also possible within the scope of the invention to make the air duct comparable to a heat exchanger in such a way that heated air can collect within the air duct and the heated air within the air duct has a higher temperature than when the air emerges from the at least air outlet opening of the air duct. In this way, the air duct itself can act as a heat store, comparable to a radiator, and heat the ambient air inside the headlight housing.
- the radii of curvature and the angles of curvature of the first curved longitudinal axis section and of the headlight can be used at least the second curved longitudinal axis section be the same in each case.
- standardized air duct sections can advantageously be joined to one another in order to be able to bring the air duct as space-saving as possible and as close as possible to the sections of the headlight housing to be heated.
- the radii of curvature and / or the angles of curvature of the first curved longitudinal axis section and of the at least second curved longitudinal axis section can be different.
- This embodiment offers the advantage of being able to install an air duct that is as space-saving as possible within the headlight housing with individually designed air duct sections that are joined to one another.
- the angle of curvature of the at least one curved longitudinal axis section of the air duct is between 50 ° and 130 °, preferably between 60 ° and 120 °, particularly preferably between 70 ° and 110 °.
- the cited angles of curvature are to be understood to mean that these angles of curvature are measured relative to a longitudinal axis direction of a straight section of the air duct.
- a straight length section of the air duct can point upwards in the vertical axis direction, the air inlet opening together with the radiation emitter being located at the lower end of this vertically oriented air duct.
- a first curved longitudinal axis section can be curved, for example, between 50 ° and 130 ° in relation to the perpendicular axis direction. If the angle of curvature is selected to be greater than 90 ° in this case and is, for example, 120 ° in relation to the vertical axis direction, the free end of the air duct with its air outlet opening points downwards at an angle.
- a highest section is formed in which the heated air will collect before it moves downwards due to the convection flow - or in the case of the use of an additional fan blower due to the set forced flow Air outlet opening flows.
- This fact can advantageously be used, for example, in such a section of the air duct which is highest in relation to the respective installation position, to form an air collecting space which is connected to the air duct and in which the heated air can collect.
- This conceivable embodiment variant can, as already mentioned at the beginning - in a manner comparable to a heat exchanger - serve to ensure that heated air can collect within the air duct and the heated air within the air duct can Has a higher temperature than when the air emerges from the at least air outlet opening of the air duct.
- the radius of curvature of the at least one curved longitudinal axis section of the air duct can be from 0 mm to 100 mm, preferably from 1 mm to 80 mm.
- longitudinal axis sections of the air duct can thus also be used which have a kink, that is to say a curvature with a radius of curvature of 0 mm.
- the air duct can expediently be made from a wall material which is selected from the group consisting of: sheet steel, aluminum, Ahiminium alloys, metal matrix composite material, plastic, temperature-resistant plastic and / or a plastic composite material.
- thermoresistant plastics which are suitable as wall materials, may be mentioned as examples: PI polyimide, PEEK polyetherether ketone, PPS polyphenylene sulfide, PA polyamide, PBT polybutylene terephthalate, PET polyethylene terephthalate.
- the embodiment variant of a headlight according to the invention in which the radiation emitter is an infrared radiator, preferably a quartz radiator, a halogen radiator or an infrared lamp, can be particularly advantageous.
- Infrared lamps also called red light lamps or heat lamps
- a mostly red filter can be built into the infrared lamp in order to filter out the remaining (non-red) visible light.
- the illuminants used can also contain these filters directly in their glass envelope.
- the emitted radiation mainly only includes so-called near infrared radiation (NIR).
- a particularly economical and inexpensive variant of the invention is provided with a headlight in which the radiation emitter is a halogen lamp.
- the radiation emitter is a halogen lamp.
- standardized halogen lamps III or comparable lamps can be used as radiation emitters. This has the advantage that these are common spare parts that can be procured quickly and inexpensively. Depending on the design of the headlamp, it is therefore possible for anyone to replace a radiation emitter in the form of a halogen lamp quickly and easily.
- the air duct can expediently be equipped on its inner surfaces with a visible light-absorbing, light-shading coating, the light-shading coating preferably being dark, particularly preferably deep black.
- Appropriate light-shading coating materials can be obtained, for example, from ACM Coatings GmbH, a subsidiary of Acktar Ltd. Acktar (see https: / / www.acm-coatings.de/).
- Such light-absorbing coatings can be used, for example, in the form of direct coatings.
- Coatings in the form of foils or films can also be used. These are deep black coated foils and films with or without an adhesive layer, which can also be used to coat larger surface sections.
- excellent absorption values can be achieved with such light-absorbing films.
- such films can have a hemispherical reflection of less than 1% at wavelengths of 10 nm - 10,000 nm.
- the condensation protection device in the case of a headlight, can furthermore comprise a fan fan, which fan fan is connected to the air duct.
- a fan blower offers the advantage that the heated air flowing out of the air duct can, as a result of the forced flow caused by the fan blower, be directed particularly effectively to corresponding sections of the cover plate for defrosting. This is particularly advantageous in the case of larger headlight housings, for example of trucks, in order to heat the correspondingly larger volumes within the bill it housing quickly and effectively.
- the fan can be integrated in the air duct in a headlight.
- the fan blower can be arranged entirely or at least partially within the air duct.
- the fan blower is preferably arranged in the vicinity of the radiation emitter in order to transport the heated air away from the radiation emitter as quickly as possible within the air duct.
- the air outlet opening of the air duct is designed as a diffuser for uniform air distribution. The exit speed of the air from the air outlet opening is evened out or slowed down by using a diffuser.
