Description

DISPOSITIF D'ECLAIRAGE DE L'HABITACLE D'UN VEHICULE Ltinvention concerne un dispositif d'éclairage de l'habitacle d'un véhicule. LIGHTING DEVICE FOR THE INTERIOR OF A VEHICLE The invention relates to a device for lighting the passenger compartment of a vehicle.

Le dispositif d'éclairage de l'habitacle d'un véhicule est généralement constitué par plusieurs sources lumineuses formé par des spots de lecture des plafonniers ou des diffuseurs encastrés dans les parois latérales du véhicule.The lighting device for the passenger compartment of a vehicle generally consists of several light sources formed by spots for reading the ceiling lights or diffusers embedded in the side walls of the vehicle.

On connaît également des dispositifs d'éclairage pour véhicules de transport en commun constitués par une ou plusieurs rampes lumineuses s1 étendant parallèlement à l'axe longitudinal du véhicule et fixées au pavillon, complétées par des spots fournissant un éclairement suffisant pour permettre au passager assis de lire.Lighting devices for public transport vehicles are also known, consisting of one or more light bars s1 extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle and fixed to the roof, supplemented by spots providing sufficient lighting to allow the seated passenger to read.

Le problème non résolu par ces dispositifs d'éclairage réside dans le fait que l'habitacle éclairé se réfléchit dans les parois vitrées du véhicules, si bien que les différentes images réfléchies occupent le champ visuel du conducteur du véhicule.The problem not resolved by these lighting devices lies in the fact that the illuminated passenger compartment is reflected in the glass walls of the vehicle, so that the various reflected images occupy the visual field of the driver of the vehicle.

Conformément à l'invention ce problème est résolu par le fait que les appareils d'éclairage respectivement disposés sur les parois latérales de l'habitacle et sur le pavillon sont constitués par des sources tubulaires à gaz alimentées sélectivement.According to the invention, this problem is solved by the fact that the lighting devices respectively arranged on the side walls of the passenger compartment and on the roof are formed by tubular gas sources selectively supplied.

Selon l'invention les sources sont réparties fonctionnellement et possèdent une teinte et intensités lumineuses placées sous le contrôle d'une centrale de commande dont les courants de sortie pilotent: - l'éclairement général de l'habitacle, - I'éclairement de la partie avant de l'habitacle, - l'éclairement de la partie arrière de l'habitacle.According to the invention, the sources are functionally distributed and have a tint and light intensities placed under the control of a control center whose output currents control: - the general lighting of the passenger compartment, - the lighting of the part front of the passenger compartment, - the illumination of the rear part of the passenger compartment.

Le dispositif ainsi réalisé permet une répartition fonctionnelle des sources lumineuses et la réalisation d'un système d'éclairage d'accueil de couleur bIanche ou bleu pâle placé à la périphérie de la garniture intérieure du pavillon dont l'allumage est commandé notamment par l'ouverture d'une porte.The device thus produced allows a functional distribution of the light sources and the production of a reception system of white or pale blue color placed at the periphery of the interior trim of the pavilion, the lighting of which is controlled in particular by the door opening.

Un système d'éclairage disposé le long des portes avant actionné séparément.A lighting system arranged along the front doors operated separately.

Un système d'éclairage à intensité variable disposé notamment le long des panneaux latéraux arrière. Ce système est destiné aux passagers arrière et notamment aux enfants et assure un éclairage de veilleuse.A dimmable lighting system arranged in particular along the rear side panels. This system is intended for rear passengers and especially children and provides pilot light.

D'autres caractéristiques et avantages du dispositif apparaîtront à la lecture d'un exemple de réalisation de celui-ci faite en référence au dessin annexé dans lequel: - la figure I est une we en perspective d'une partie de l'habitacle.Other characteristics and advantages of the device will appear on reading an exemplary embodiment of it made with reference to the appended drawing in which: - Figure I is a we in perspective of part of the passenger compartment.

transversale qui montre le dispositif d'éclairage et son système de
commande, - les figures 3 et 4 sont des vues en coupe transversale de la partie
médiane du pavillon et d'un élément de porte latérale du véhicule qui
montrent les emplacements des appareils d'éclairage selon les plans due
section m et IV de la figure 1.showing the lighting device, - Figure 2 is a schematic representation of the vehicle seen in section
which shows the lighting device and its system
control, - Figures 3 and 4 are cross-sectional views of the part
center of the roof and a side door element of the vehicle which
show the locations of the lighting fixtures according to the plans due
section m and IV of figure 1.

Le dispositif d'éclairage représenté aux figures 1 à 4 concerne un véhicule défini par sa carrosserie 10 sur laquelle ont été représentées les portes latérales 11, 12, le pavillon 13 et le hayon 14.The lighting device shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 relates to a vehicle defined by its bodywork 10 on which the side doors 11, 12, the roof 13 and the tailgate 14 have been shown.

Les parois de l'habitacle sont définies par des panneaux d'habillage tels que représentés aux figures 3, 4 par les références 15, 16, 25, 27.The walls of the passenger compartment are defined by covering panels as shown in FIGS. 3, 4 by the references 15, 16, 25, 27.

Le panneau 15 est agrafé à une tôle de structure du pavillon 13 et porte sur sa face interne des supports isolants 17 porteurs des raccords d'alimentation élastiques 18 des tubes d'éclairage 20. Les tubes 20 diffusent la lumière au travers d'une fente d'éclairage 21 à la périphérie du panneau 15 le long du hayon 14 et constituent une première rampe lumineuse.The panel 15 is stapled to a roof structure sheet 13 and carries on its internal face insulating supports 17 carrying the elastic supply connections 18 of the lighting tubes 20. The tubes 20 diffuse the light through a slot lighting 21 at the periphery of the panel 15 along the tailgate 14 and constitute a first light ramp.

Le panneau intérieur 16 des portes latérales 11 ou 12 est un panneau composite en plusieurs parties. Le panneau 16 est constitué essentiellement par un module d'habillage 25 longitudinal représenté plus en détail à la figure 4.The interior panel 16 of the side doors 11 or 12 is a composite panel in several parts. The panel 16 consists essentially of a longitudinal covering module 25 shown in more detail in FIG. 4.

Le module 25 est raccordé aux parties supérieure et inférieure du panneau 16 par tout moyen de fixation convenable et constitue une trappe d'accès notamment aux divers mécanismes tels que le lève-vitre, la serrure de condamnation et du système d'articulation.The module 25 is connected to the upper and lower parts of the panel 16 by any suitable fixing means and constitutes an access hatch in particular to the various mechanisms such as the window regulator, the locking lock and the articulation system.

Les sources 26 réalisées par des tubes d'éclairage sont montés dans des supports fixés au caisson 27 de la porte et sont orientés devant un diffuseur 29 porté par le module 25 dans le but de réaliser une deuxième rampe lumineuse. La diffusion de la lumière le long de la paroi inférieure de la porte s'opère le long de la ligne de raccordement du module 25 au panneau de porte 16 qui s'étend sensiblement suivant l'axe de distribution des sources d'éclairage 26. Le diffuseur 29 est démontable afin de charger si besoin est,les tubes 26 sans démontage du module 25.The sources 26 produced by lighting tubes are mounted in supports fixed to the box 27 of the door and are oriented in front of a diffuser 29 carried by the module 25 in order to produce a second light ramp. The diffusion of light along the lower wall of the door takes place along the line connecting the module 25 to the door panel 16 which extends substantially along the axis of distribution of the light sources 26. The diffuser 29 is removable in order to load, if necessary, the tubes 26 without dismantling the module 25.

Le dispositif d'éclairage est piloté par une centrale de commande 30. La centrale 30 permet l'alimentation des tubes 20 à l'ouverture des portes ll ou 12 dans le but de réaliser un éclairage d'accueil.The lighting device is controlled by a central control unit 30. The central unit 30 allows the tubes 20 to be supplied at the opening of the doors ll or 12 in order to provide reception lighting.

La centrale 30 permet également l'alimentation sélective des sources telles que 26 situées sur la porte avant 1 1 ou sur la porte ou le panneau d'habillage arrière du véhicule.The central unit 30 also allows selective supply of sources such as 26 located on the front door 11 or on the door or the rear trim panel of the vehicle.

A cet effet les sources 26 sont commandées directement par un interrupteur 31 ou indirectement par un variateur d'intensité lumineuse 32 dans le but d'obtenir un éclairement suffisant dans la partie avant de l'habitacle et/ou un éclairement plus ou moins fort dans la partie arrière de l'habitacle. For this purpose the sources 26 are controlled directly by a switch 31 or indirectly by a dimmer 32 in order to obtain sufficient lighting in the front part of the passenger compartment and / or more or less strong lighting in the rear part of the passenger compartment.
