しかしながら、上記従来技術にあっては、着色層の指針中央部分に到達する光量が着色層の指針基端部分および先端部分に到達する光量と比較して著しく少ないため、輝度ムラが顕著であった。
本発明の目的は、輝度ムラを抑制できる発光指針を提供することにある。 However, in the above prior art, since the amount of light reaching the pointer center portion of the colored layer is significantly less than the amount of light reaching the pointer proximal end portion and the tip portion of the colored layer, the luminance unevenness is significant. .
An object of the present invention is to provide a light emission guide that can suppress luminance unevenness.

上記目的を達成するため、本発明では、指針基端側正面および指針先端側背面に拡散面を設定し、指針基端側背面に非拡散面を設定した。   In order to achieve the above object, in the present invention, a diffusing surface is set on the front face of the pointer base end side and a back face of the pointer distal end side, and a non-diffusing surface is set on the back face of the pointer base end side.

よって、本発明にあっては、指針基端側背面で全反射させた光を指針基端側正面の拡散面で拡散させることで、指針中央の輝度を高めることができ、輝度ムラを抑制できる。   Therefore, in the present invention, the light totally reflected on the back side of the pointer base end side is diffused on the diffusion surface on the front side of the pointer base end side, whereby the luminance at the center of the pointer can be increased and luminance unevenness can be suppressed. .

以下、本発明の発光指針を実施するための形態を、図面に示す実施例に基づいて説明する。
〔実施例１〕
まず、構成を説明する。
［全体構造］

[Example 1]
First, the configuration will be described.
[Overall structure]
FIG. 1 is a longitudinal sectional view of an essential part of an analog type instrument device to which the light emission pointer of Example 1 is applied. An instrument apparatus is used as one of the combination meters installed in the instrument panel of a vehicle, for example.

回路基板1は、紙フェノール系またはガラスエポキシ系材料によって形成された硬質回路基板からなり、その正面1aには所定の銅箔材料からなる複数の配線パターン（不図示）が形成され、この配線パターンに、例えばステッピングモータからなる駆動装置2と発光ダイオードからなる光源3が搭載され、導通固定されている。
駆動装置2は、回路基板1の背面1bに装着され、その回転軸2aが回路基板1を貫通して文字板4の正面4a側に突出し、先端には指針（発光指針）5が連結されている。
指針5は、光透過性を有する素材で形成され、回転軸2aに連結され、光源3からの光を受光する基部6と、基部6から文字板4に沿って長手状に延びる指示部7とを備える。指針5の構造については後述する。 The circuit board 1 is made of a hard circuit board made of paper phenolic or glass epoxy material, and a plurality of wiring patterns (not shown) made of a predetermined copper foil material are formed on the front surface 1a. Further, for example, a driving device 2 composed of a stepping motor and a light source 3 composed of a light emitting diode are mounted and fixed in conduction.
The driving device 2 is mounted on the back surface 1b of the circuit board 1, and its rotating shaft 2a penetrates the circuit board 1 and protrudes toward the front surface 4a side of the dial plate 4, and a pointer (light emitting pointer) 5 is connected to the tip. Yes.
The pointer 5 is formed of a light-transmitting material, is connected to the rotation shaft 2a, receives a base 6 that receives light from the light source 3, and an indicator 7 that extends in a longitudinal direction from the base 6 along the dial 4. Is provided. The structure of the pointer 5 will be described later.

文字板4は、正面4aに透明な合成樹脂基板に複数の印刷を施してなり、全体的には黒色系の印刷が施され、指針5の先端の作動範囲に対応する位置には、適宜、光透過性の有る白色等の印刷で数字やスリット状の目盛りが施されている。これら光透過性の有る印刷部分は、回路基板1の正面1aに固定された図外の光源からの光を導入して発光するように設定されている。
ロアハウジング8は、遮光性を有し、回路基板1の正面1aと文字板4の背面4bとの間に介装され、回路基板1を支持している。 The dial 4 is formed by performing a plurality of printings on a transparent synthetic resin substrate on the front surface 4a, and is generally printed in black, and at a position corresponding to the operating range of the tip of the pointer 5, as appropriate, Numbers and slit-shaped scales are applied by printing with light-transmitting white or the like. These light-transmitting printed portions are set to emit light by introducing light from a light source (not shown) fixed to the front surface 1a of the circuit board 1.
The lower housing 8 has a light shielding property and is interposed between the front surface 1a of the circuit board 1 and the back surface 4b of the dial plate 4 to support the circuit board 1.

［指針の構造］
指針5の基部6には、略三角形の空隙部9が、指示部7の長さ方向と直交する方向へ向けて貫通形成されている。空隙部9には、背面6bから基部6内に導入した光を指針5の先端5a方向へ向かって反射させる前側反射面10と、光源3からの光を指示部7の後端5b方向へ向かって反射させる後側反射面11とが設けられている。空隙部9には、半光透過性を有する拡散部材12が嵌着されている。拡散部材12は、正面側に凸曲面部12aが形成されている。凸曲面部12aは、前側反射面10で全反射を起こさずに前側反射面10を透過した光を拡散させて基部6の正面6aを均一に光輝させるためのものである。
基部6には、基部6の後端5bおよび側面と指示部7の基端側側面からの光漏れを防止するキャップ（蓋部材）17が取り付けられている。 [Guideline structure]
A substantially triangular space 9 is formed in the base 6 of the pointer 5 so as to penetrate in the direction perpendicular to the length direction of the indicator 7. The gap 9 includes a front reflective surface 10 that reflects light introduced from the back surface 6b into the base 6 toward the tip 5a of the pointer 5, and light from the light source 3 toward the rear end 5b of the indicator 7. And a rear reflecting surface 11 for reflecting the light. A diffusing member 12 having semi-light transmittance is fitted into the gap portion 9. The diffusing member 12 has a convex curved surface portion 12a on the front side. The convex curved surface portion 12a is for diffusing the light transmitted through the front reflective surface 10 without causing total reflection at the front reflective surface 10 to uniformly shine the front surface 6a of the base 6.
A cap (lid member) 17 is attached to the base 6 to prevent light leakage from the rear end 5b and side surface of the base 6 and the side surface on the base end side of the indicating unit 7.

［指示部の表面処理］
実施例１では、指針5の輝度ムラを抑制することを狙いとし、指示部7の正面7aおよび背面7bに以下の表面処理を施す。
指示部7の正面7aを指針基端側（後端5b側）と指針先端側（先端5a側）との２つの領域に分割し、基端側には、拡散面としてホットスタンプ処理による着色層13を設定する。また、先端側には、拡散面14を設定する。
着色層13は、拡散性を高めるために濃い色の着色層とする。また、拡散面14は、着色層13よりも色の薄い着色層とする。なお、着色層に代えて梨地加工を施してもよい。
指示部7の背面7bを指針基端側と指針先端側との２つの領域に分割し、先端側には、拡散面としてホットスタンプ処理による着色層15を設定する。基端側には梨地加工やホットスタンプ処理などの表面処理は行わず、非拡散面16とする。
着色層15は、拡散性を高めるために、着色層13と同一の着色層とする。
なお、実施例１では、２つの着色層13,15を指示部7の長さ方向にオーバーラップさせていないが、オーバーラップさせてもよい。 [Surface treatment of the indicator]
In the first embodiment, the following surface treatment is performed on the front surface 7a and the back surface 7b of the pointing unit 7 with the aim of suppressing luminance unevenness of the pointer 5.
The front surface 7a of the indicator 7 is divided into two regions, the proximal end side of the pointer (rear end 5b side) and the distal end side of the pointer (front end 5a side). Set 13. A diffusion surface 14 is set on the tip side.
The colored layer 13 is a dark colored layer to enhance diffusibility. The diffusion surface 14 is a colored layer that is lighter in color than the colored layer 13. A satin finish may be applied instead of the colored layer.
The back surface 7b of the instruction unit 7 is divided into two regions, a pointer proximal end side and a pointer distal end side, and a colored layer 15 by hot stamping is set as a diffusion surface on the distal end side. The base end side is not subjected to surface treatment such as satin processing or hot stamping, and is set as a non-diffusing surface 16.
The colored layer 15 is the same colored layer as the colored layer 13 in order to enhance diffusibility.
In the first embodiment, the two colored layers 13 and 15 are not overlapped in the length direction of the indicating unit 7, but may be overlapped.

次に、作用を説明する。
［輝度ムラ抑制作用］
図２(a)は、実施例１に対する比較例として、指示部7の正面7a側には拡散面を設けず、背面7bの全域に亘って着色層01を設けたものである。
光源3から指針5の基部6内に導入された光の主な光路は、図に示す３つの光路A,B,Cとなる。
光路A：前側反射面10で全反射されて指針5の先端5a側へ向かい、着色層01により拡散される光路。
光路B：前側反射面10で全反射を起こさない光が拡散部材12を透過し、基部6の正面6aで全反射された後、着色層01に達して拡散される光路。
光路C：前側反射面10で全反射を起こさない光が拡散部材12の凸曲面部12aで拡散される光路。 Next, the operation will be described.
[Brightness unevenness suppression effect]
FIG. 2 (a) shows a comparative example with respect to Example 1, in which a colored layer 01 is provided over the entire area of the back surface 7b without providing a diffusion surface on the front surface 7a side.
The main optical paths of light introduced from the light source 3 into the base 6 of the pointer 5 are the three optical paths A, B, and C shown in the figure.
Optical path A: an optical path that is totally reflected by the front reflecting surface 10, travels toward the tip 5 a side of the pointer 5, and is diffused by the colored layer 01.
Optical path B: an optical path in which light that does not cause total reflection on the front-side reflection surface 10 passes through the diffusing member 12, is totally reflected on the front surface 6a of the base 6, and reaches the colored layer 01 to be diffused.
Optical path C: an optical path in which light that does not cause total reflection at the front reflective surface 10 is diffused by the convex curved surface portion 12a of the diffusing member 12.

着色層01に達した光は、主に拡散されてドライバに視認されるが、光路Aを通る光は、着色層01の指示部先端側で拡散され、指示部先端部分を光輝させる。また、光路Bを通る光は、着色層01の指示部基端側で拡散され、指示部基端部分を光輝させる。ここで、光路Bを通る光の一部は先端5a側に向かうものの、一度着色層01に当たった光は大きく減衰し、指示部中央部分の輝度向上にはあまり寄与しない。なお、光路Cを通る光は指示部7まで到達せず、基部6を光輝させる。
したがって、図２(b)の輝度分布図に示すように、基部6、指示部基端部分および先端部分と比較して指示部中央部分の輝度が著しく低く、輝度ムラが顕著であるため、視認性が問題となる。 The light that reaches the colored layer 01 is mainly diffused and visually recognized by the driver, but the light passing through the optical path A is diffused on the distal end side of the pointing portion of the colored layer 01, and shines the distal end portion of the pointing portion. In addition, the light passing through the optical path B is diffused on the indicator base end side of the colored layer 01 to shine the indicator base end portion. Here, although a part of the light passing through the optical path B is directed to the tip 5a side, the light that once hits the colored layer 01 is greatly attenuated and does not contribute much to the luminance improvement of the central portion of the indication unit. In addition, the light passing through the optical path C does not reach the instruction unit 7 and causes the base 6 to shine.
Therefore, as shown in the luminance distribution diagram of FIG. 2 (b), the luminance of the central portion of the pointing portion is significantly lower than that of the base portion 6, the proximal portion of the pointing portion, and the leading end portion, and the luminance unevenness is remarkable. Sex matters.

これに対し、実施例１では、指示部7の正面7aの基端側および背面7bの先端側に着色層13,15を設定し、指示部7の背面7bの基端側を非拡散面16としたことで、図３(a)に示すように、上述した光路Bを通る光により照明される部分を指示部基端側から中央側へとシフトさせ、中央部分の輝度を高めた。
詳述すると、背面7bの基端側を非拡散面16としたことにより、光路Bを通る光を非拡散面16により正面7a側に反射させ、さらに、正面7aの基端側に着色層13を設けたことにより、非拡散面16からの反射光を拡散させて指示部中央部分を光輝させた。
図３(b)は、実施例１の指針5の輝度分布図であり、図２(b)に示した比較例に対して、指示部基端部分の輝度が低下し、指示部中央部分の輝度が高くなっていることがわかる。つまり、実施例１の構成を採用することで、指示部7の輝度ムラを抑制でき、視認性を高めることができる。
なお、この効果は、指針の表面処理のみにより達成でき、指針の形状変更を要しないため、コスト面でも有利である。 On the other hand, in the first embodiment, the colored layers 13 and 15 are set on the base end side of the front surface 7a and the front end side of the back surface 7b of the indicating unit 7, and the base end side of the back surface 7b of the indicating unit 7 is set as the non-diffusing surface 16. Thus, as shown in FIG. 3 (a), the portion illuminated by the light passing through the optical path B described above is shifted from the base end side of the indicator to the center side, and the brightness of the center portion is increased.
Specifically, by making the base end side of the back surface 7b the non-diffusing surface 16, the light passing through the optical path B is reflected to the front surface 7a side by the non-diffusing surface 16, and further, the colored layer 13 is formed on the base end side of the front surface 7a. As a result, the reflected light from the non-diffusing surface 16 was diffused to shine the central portion of the indicator.
FIG. 3 (b) is a luminance distribution diagram of the pointer 5 of the first embodiment. Compared with the comparative example shown in FIG. It can be seen that the brightness is high. That is, by adopting the configuration of the first embodiment, the luminance unevenness of the instruction unit 7 can be suppressed and the visibility can be improved.
This effect can be achieved only by the surface treatment of the pointer, and does not require a change in the shape of the pointer, which is advantageous in terms of cost.

［照明段差抑制作用］
実施例１では、指示部7の正面7aの先端側に拡散面14を設定した。着色層13,15は、指示部7の正面7aの基端側と背面7bの先端側に設けられているため、仮に正面7aの先端側に拡散面14を設けない場合、指示部7の先端側は基端側よりも奥側の位置で発光し、照明に段差が生じて視認性の悪化を招く。そこで、先端側に拡散面14を設け、着色層15の発光を正面7aまでオフセットさせることで、照明の段差を抑制でき、視認性を向上できる。
ここで、拡散面14は、着色層15よりも薄い着色層としているため、上記オフセットによるロス（減衰）を抑え、指示部7の先端側が暗くなるのを抑制できる。 [Lighting step suppression effect]
In Example 1, the diffusing surface 14 was set on the front end side of the front surface 7a of the indicating unit 7. Since the colored layers 13 and 15 are provided on the base end side of the front surface 7a and the front end side of the back surface 7b of the indicating unit 7, if the diffusion surface 14 is not provided on the front end side of the front surface 7a, the front end of the indicating unit 7 The side emits light at a position deeper than the base end side, and a step is generated in the illumination, resulting in deterioration of visibility. Therefore, by providing the diffusion surface 14 on the front end side and offsetting the light emission of the colored layer 15 to the front surface 7a, it is possible to suppress the step of illumination and improve the visibility.
Here, since the diffusing surface 14 is a colored layer thinner than the colored layer 15, loss (attenuation) due to the offset can be suppressed, and the distal end side of the indicating unit 7 can be suppressed from becoming dark.

次に、効果を説明する。

これにより、指示部7の輝度ムラを抑制できる。
(2) 指示部7の先端側の正面7aに拡散面14を設けたため、指示部7の基端側と先端側の照明の段差を抑制でき、視認性を向上できる。 Next, the effect will be described.

Thereby, the uneven brightness of the instruction unit 7 can be suppressed.
(2) Since the diffusing surface 14 is provided on the front surface 7a on the distal end side of the instruction section 7, the illumination step between the proximal end side and the distal end side of the instruction section 7 can be suppressed, and visibility can be improved.
