Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vehicle-mounted lamp, and more particularly, to a vehicle-mounted lamp mounted on a vehicle such as an automobile and used as a hand search lamp or the like.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventional in-vehicle hand search lamps are:
When installed on a vehicle and not in use, the long cord is rolled up and left on the floor.

[0003] When using an in-vehicle hand search lamp, it is inserted into an outlet provided in the vehicle and fixed by tightening a fixing ring.

[0004]

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, the conventional in-vehicle lamp has a problem that the fixing to the outlet at the time of use is complicated and that the cord is not easily disposed at the time of non-use.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

[0006] A cord having a lamp case with a lamp attached to the end thereof is wound up and housed inside, and a junction is provided at a tip end of the cord case for connecting to a terminal of the lamp cord, and the outer periphery of the junction is narrowed toward the end. The case and the opening are wide open and narrow as it goes deeper, the inner peripheral shape almost matches the outer shape around the junction of the cord case, and the case storage part side junction connected to the power supply is provided in the back. A vehicle-mounted lamp, comprising:

Is provided.

[0008]

When the vehicle lamp is used, the end of the cord case is inserted from the opening of the case housing toward the back. Then, the opening of the case storage portion is widened and narrowed as it goes deeper, and the inner peripheral shape substantially matches the outer shape around the junction of the cord case on the cord case side. While being guided by the peripheral surface, the tip approaches the back of the case storage part,
The junction on the cord case side and the junction on the case storage section side are coincident and both are connected. Next, the cord is pulled out from the cord case and the lamp is positioned and used at a required position.

When the in-vehicle lamp is not used, the cord is wound up and stored in the cord case. The code case is placed at a predetermined position.

1 is a perspective view of an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a plan sectional view of a vehicle on which the vehicle-mounted lamp is installed.

Reference numeral 11 denotes a lamp, and 12 denotes a lamp code. The lamp 11 is attached to a tip of a lamp cord 12. 13 is a code case. Code case 1
Reference numeral 3 denotes a lamp cord 12 housed inside by installing a spring urged in the winding direction or by providing a handle and winding the handle in the winding direction.

At the top end of the cord case 13, in this embodiment at the bottom end, there is provided a cord case side junction 14 connected to the terminal of the lamp cord 12. Code case 13
Is narrowed toward the end. 15 is an iron piece. Iron piece 1
5 may consist of a magnet.

Reference numeral 21 denotes a case storage section 21. As shown in FIG. 2, the case storage section 21 is installed adjacent to a shift cover near the driver's seat 32 of the vehicle 31 and at the rear portion 33 of the vehicle.

In this embodiment, the case accommodating portion 21 is substantially funnel-shaped, with the opening 22 facing upward, and the opening 22 is wide open and narrowed toward the back. Case storage section side junction 14
The outer shape is substantially the same as that of the outer shape, and a case storage section side junction 23 is provided at the back. The case storage section-side junction 23 is connected to a power supply mounted on the vehicle. 24 is a magnet. The magnet 24 is installed on the side of the junction 23 on the case storage side. When the iron piece 15 is made of a magnet, the magnet 24 may be made of an iron piece.

Next, the operation of the embodiment will be described. When using the in-vehicle lamp, the front end of the cord case 12 is inserted from the opening 22 of the case housing 21 toward the back. Then, the case storage portion 21 has the opening 22 that is wide open and narrows as it goes deeper, and the inner peripheral shape is the cord case 1.
3 has a funnel shape substantially matching the outer shape of the periphery of the junction 14 on the code case side.
While being guided by the inner peripheral surface of the case storage portion 13, the front end approaches the inner portion of the case storage portion 21. Then, the magnet 24 and the iron piece 15 are attracted and adhered, and the junction 14 on the cord case side and the junction 2 on the case storage section side are connected.
3 matches and both are connected.

Next, the cord 12 is pulled out from the cord case 13 so that the lamp 11 is located at a required position and used.

When the in-vehicle lamp is not used, the cord 12 is wound up and stored in the cord case 13. Code case 13
Is placed at a predetermined position.

[0018]

[Effects of the Invention] The fixing to the outlet during use is simplified, and the cord is easily disposed of when not in use.
