Abstract

(57) [Summary] [Purpose] This is to deal with the conversion of the license plate that has been issued into a letter-light type. It is intended to respond to the desire to make the license plates of all sizes, all types, the desired number system, and overseas license plates. [Structure] Letter 1 of license plate A received,
On the surface of the ultra-thin EL luminous body that emits light in the same color as the numeral 2, the same color and the same color material as the license plate flat plate portion 7 made of a light-shielding material is adhered, and cut into large letters and numbers. In the daytime, the cut end face 9 is illuminated during energization, and the contours of the embossed letters and numbers are illuminated with a three-dimensional clear shine, while the license plate is in a license plate state in the daytime.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 This invention relates to license plates issued in Japan and electronic illuminators of overseas license plates.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Currently, there are several types of license plates issued in Japan, about 3 sizes and 4 types, and they are issued at about 96 Bureaus of Land Transport. Motorcycles are installed at the rear of vehicles, automobiles and other vehicles. It is fixed to the front and sealed to the rear. Overseas, there are various forms such as mailing after application.

[0003] When it is desired to purchase and issue a license plate, it is limited to letters and numbers owned by a licensed trader, and it cannot deal with all sizes, all types, and a plurality of specialties. There is also a difficulty in meeting the desire for a desired numbering system and the desire for overseas license plates. Since the incandescent lamp is used as the light source of the illuminated license plate, there is a disadvantage that the illuminated license plate is not used at night due to disconnection of the incandescent lamp.

[0004]

[Issues to be solved by the invention]

 The problem to be solved is to deal with all types and all types of license plates that have been issued, as well as multiple special and desired license systems, from limited license plates, and from overseas. It is also intended to meet the desire for the use of a U-shaped license plate.

[0005] The conventional incandescent license plate light source uses an incandescent lamp, and this is a solution to the disadvantage that the incandescent lamp is disconnected and the incandescent license plate is not used at night.

[0006]

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the problems, the invention according to claim 1 of the present invention can emit light in the same color as the embossed letters and numbers of the issued number plate. On the light emitting surface of the ultra-thin EL luminous body in which the outer peripheral end face is not emitting light and the front side electrode and the back side electrode are provided in the mounting holes and the like, the same color material as the license plate flat portion made of a light-shielding material is used as the flat plate portion. The same size and close contact configuration, embossed letters and numbers on the license plate are cut to size, waterproofed and mounted on the flat plate.

[0007] In the daytime, the license plate is in the state of a license plate that has been issued, but in the nighttime, due to energization from the vehicle power source and the inverter, the entire end face of the ultra-thin EL luminous body emits light, so that the outer peripheral end face does not emit light. It is characterized by illuminating the contours of the embossed letters and numbers on the license plate.

[0008] The invention according to claim 2 of the present invention is directed to a domestic motorcycle having a peripheral frame of the same color as the embossed letters and numbers of the issued license plate, and a foreign motorcycle such as Germany and Belgium. Such a license plate is characterized in that the outer peripheral end face is also made to emit light to illuminate the contours of the embossed characters and numerals of the license plate and the outer peripheral frame.

[0009]

[Embodiment of the invention]

 The figure shows one embodiment of the license plate electronic lighting plate according to the present invention. Explaining in the drawing, the outer peripheral end face 3 can emit light in the same color as the embossed character 1 and numeral 2 of the license plate A that has been issued, the outer peripheral end face 3 is not illuminated, and the front side electrode 4 and the back side electrode 5 are attached. On the light-emitting surface of the ultra-thin EL luminous body B disposed in the hole 6 or the like, a license plate flat plate portion 7 made of a light-shielding material and a material 8 of the same color are closely adhered in the same size as the flat plate portion. A is cut into embossed letters and numbers, waterproofed, and mounted on the flat plate.

[0010] In the daytime, the license plate is in a state of a license plate that has been issued, but in the nighttime, the license plate is embossed by full emission of the cut end surface 9 of the ultra-thin EL luminous body B by energization from the vehicle power supply and the inverter. Illuminate the outline of letter 1 and number 2.

In a license plate having an outer peripheral frame of the same color as the embossed characters 1 and 2, the outer peripheral end face 3 is also made to emit full light, so that the contours of the embossed characters 1 and 2 on the license plate are changed. Illuminate the outer frame.

[0012]

[Effect of the invention]

 With such a configuration, it is possible to cope with all sizes, all types, and a plurality of special and desired number systems of the issued license plate from the conventional limited-light type license plate. In addition, it is possible to meet the desire from overseas for the current license plate to be provided with a character-type license plate.

At present, embossed letters and numbers on license plates issued in Japan have an emboss height of about 2.00 mm, ultra-thin EL luminous bodies are 0.23 mm thick, and electrodes are placed on the back of the electronic lighting plate. The mounting without wiring surface, such as wiring fittings and wiring cords, did not change the vehicle design or the license plate status after the installation, and the edge emission was embossed. It illuminates letters and numbers with a more three-dimensional and clear shine to enhance nighttime visibility.

[0014] The conventional incandescent license plate light source uses an incandescent lamp. Therefore, the disadvantage that the incandescent lamp is broken and the incandescent license plate is not used at night is that the ultra-thin EL light emitter is a solid-state. The device is resistant to vehicle vibration and shock, and has a long life of several thousand hours without sudden disappearance of brightness, eliminating the problem of running out of balls.

EL stands for electroluminescence, and refers to a sheet-shaped surface light emitting element which emits light when an AC voltage is applied to a phosphor. A number plate electronic lighting plate using EL is a paper-like light emitting element. Low cost realized with a simple configuration.
