突出部34cは、後述する透光性着色部材36の孔36aに対応したカバー部材34aの内面から透光性着色部材36に向かって突出するように形成されている。この突出部34cは、透光性着色部材36の孔36aに貫通することで、透光性着色部材36の移動を防止している。なお、本実施形態では、1つの突出部34cをカバー部材34aに設けた場合について説明するが、本発明はこれに限定するものではなく、複数の突出部34cを形成することができる。   The protruding portion 34 c is formed so as to protrude from the inner surface of the cover member 34 a corresponding to a hole 36 a of the translucent colored member 36 described later toward the translucent colored member 36. The protrusion 34 c penetrates the hole 36 a of the translucent coloring member 36, thereby preventing the translucent coloring member 36 from moving. In addition, although this embodiment demonstrates the case where the one protrusion part 34c is provided in the cover member 34a, this invention is not limited to this, The some protrusion part 34c can be formed.

挟持部34dは、カバー部材34aの内面の2カ所設けられており、その内面から透光性着色部材36に向かって突出するように形成されている。複数(図4中では2つ)の挟持部34dの各々は、図6に示すように、一対のリブを有して構成されており、透光性着色部材36の幅方向の両側を挟持することで、スリット35を塞ぐ位置に透光性着色部材36を位置付ける。このように挟持部34dは、スリット35を塞ぐ位置に透光性着色部材36を確実且つ容易に位置付けると共に、透光性着色部材36が幅方向に移動することを防止している。   The sandwiching portions 34d are provided at two locations on the inner surface of the cover member 34a, and are formed so as to protrude from the inner surface toward the translucent coloring member 36. Each of the plurality (two in FIG. 4) of the sandwiching portions 34d is configured to have a pair of ribs as shown in FIG. 6, and sandwiches both sides of the translucent coloring member 36 in the width direction. Thus, the translucent coloring member 36 is positioned at a position where the slit 35 is closed. As described above, the sandwiching portion 34d reliably and easily positions the translucent coloring member 36 at the position where the slit 35 is closed, and prevents the translucent coloring member 36 from moving in the width direction.

スリット35は、指針キャップ34の第1カバー34aに、指針本体33の指示部31の先端に至るように形成されている。スリット35は、指針本体33と第1カバー34aとが組み付けられることで、指示部31の上表面を一直線上に露出させるように形成されている。なお、スリット35の長さ及び幅は、指針3のデザイン等に応じて任意に設計することができる。   The slit 35 is formed in the first cover 34 a of the pointer cap 34 so as to reach the tip of the instruction portion 31 of the pointer main body 33. The slit 35 is formed so that the upper surface of the indicator 31 is exposed in a straight line by assembling the pointer main body 33 and the first cover 34a. The length and width of the slit 35 can be arbitrarily designed according to the design of the pointer 3 and the like.

透光性着色部材36は、スリット35を塞ぐ大きさの略テープ状に、指針本体33及び指針キャップ34から着脱自在に形成されている。透光性着色部材36は、透光性のカラーフィルターやシート、透光性合成樹脂等が任意に用いられる。透光性着色部材36は、上述した指針キャップ34の突出部34cが嵌合する孔36aを有している。なお、本実施形態では、透光性着色部材36をスリット35よりも大きく形成することで、指針キャップ34への固定を確実なものとしている。   The translucent coloring member 36 is detachably formed from the pointer main body 33 and the pointer cap 34 in a substantially tape shape having a size for closing the slit 35. As the translucent colored member 36, a translucent color filter, a sheet, a translucent synthetic resin, or the like is arbitrarily used. The translucent colored member 36 has a hole 36a into which the protrusion 34c of the pointer cap 34 described above is fitted. In the present embodiment, the translucent coloring member 36 is formed larger than the slit 35 to ensure the fixation to the pointer cap 34.

バランス部材37は、指針本体33の指示部31を考慮して設定された重量に形成されており、指針キャップ34内の前記バランス用ボスが嵌合される嵌合孔を有している。バランス部材35は前記バランス用ボスによって位置決めされて指針キャップ34内に収容される。   The balance member 37 is formed to have a weight set in consideration of the instruction portion 31 of the pointer main body 33, and has a fitting hole into which the balance boss in the pointer cap 34 is fitted. The balance member 35 is positioned by the balance boss and accommodated in the pointer cap 34.

指針袴38は、上述した一対の嵌合穴38aと、指針キャップ34の外形に対応した円盤状の第1蓋部38bと、指針本体33の指示部31に対応するように第1蓋部38bから延びる第2蓋部38cと、蓋部38bから内機4に向かって延びる軸受け部38dと、第1蓋部38bに設けられて指針本体33の受光部32aが貫通される貫通部38eと、を有している。指針袴38の第1蓋部38bは、指針キャップ34の第1カバー34aに組み付けられることで形成される収容空間を形成することになる。そして、その収容空間に指針本体33の指示部31が収容されるため、指示部31の底面等から出射した光が文字板2等を照らすことを防止できる。   The pointer rod 38 has a pair of fitting holes 38a, a disc-shaped first lid portion 38b corresponding to the outer shape of the pointer cap 34, and a first lid portion 38b so as to correspond to the indication portion 31 of the pointer main body 33. A second lid portion 38c extending from the lid portion 38b, a bearing portion 38d extending from the lid portion 38b toward the inner unit 4, a through portion 38e provided in the first lid portion 38b and through which the light receiving portion 32a of the pointer main body 33 passes. have. The first lid portion 38b of the pointer rod 38 forms an accommodation space formed by being assembled to the first cover 34a of the pointer cap 34. And since the instruction | indication part 31 of the pointer | guide main body 33 is accommodated in the accommodation space, it can prevent that the light radiate | emitted from the bottom face etc. of the instruction | indication part 31 illuminates the dial 2 grade | etc.,.

このように構成した指針3は、例えば以下のように組み立てられる。まず、指針袴38の貫通部38eに指針本体33の受光部32aを貫通させて、指針袴38に指針本体33をセットすると共に、指針袴38にバランス部材37をセットする。そして、透光性着色部材36を指針キャップ34内の挟持部34dで挟持させると共に、突出部34cを透光性着色部材36の孔36aに挿入することで、指針キャップ34が突出部34cと挟持部34dによって透光性着色部材36を保持した状態とする。これにより、透光性着色部材36は指針キャップ34内でスリット35を塞いだ状態となる。そして、その指針キャップ34を指針本体33の上方から指針本体33に近づけて覆い、指針キャップ34と指針袴38とを嵌合させることで、指針本体33と指針キャップ34との間に透光性着色部材36を介在した状態となり、組み付けが完了する。   The pointer 3 configured in this manner is assembled as follows, for example. First, the light receiving portion 32a of the pointer main body 33 is passed through the penetration portion 38e of the pointer rod 38, the pointer main body 33 is set on the pointer rod 38, and the balance member 37 is set on the pointer rod 38. The translucent coloring member 36 is clamped by the clamping portion 34d in the pointer cap 34, and the protrusion 34c is inserted into the hole 36a of the translucent coloring member 36 so that the pointer cap 34 is clamped with the protruding portion 34c. The translucent colored member 36 is held by the portion 34d. Thereby, the translucent coloring member 36 is in a state of closing the slit 35 in the pointer cap 34. Then, the pointer cap 34 is covered close to the pointer main body 33 from above the pointer main body 33 and the pointer cap 34 and the pointer collar 38 are fitted to each other, so that the light transmitting property is provided between the pointer main body 33 and the pointer cap 34. The colored member 36 is interposed, and the assembly is completed.

また、内機4は、周知であるステッパモータ、クロスコイルムーブメント等が用いられ、計測量に応じて指針3を駆動する。配線板5は、光源6と内機4が実装され、それらに電力を供給する。光源6は、LED、バルブ等が用いられ、配線板5に設けられた図示しない制御部によって点灯、消灯が制御される。複数の光源6は、文字板2の指標や指針3の指示部31等を発光させるための光を発する。ケース7は、テーパ部71の表面であるテーパ面が反射面となっており、光源6が発した光を文字板2に向けて反射する。裏カバー8は、配線板5の背後を覆うようにケース7に組み付けられる。   The internal unit 4 uses a well-known stepper motor, cross coil movement, or the like, and drives the pointer 3 according to the measurement amount. The wiring board 5 is mounted with the light source 6 and the internal unit 4 and supplies power to them. The light source 6 uses an LED, a bulb, and the like, and is turned on and off by a control unit (not shown) provided on the wiring board 5. The plurality of light sources 6 emit light for causing the index of the dial plate 2, the instruction unit 31 of the pointer 3, and the like to emit light. In the case 7, the tapered surface that is the surface of the tapered portion 71 is a reflecting surface, and reflects the light emitted from the light source 6 toward the dial 2. The back cover 8 is assembled to the case 7 so as to cover the back of the wiring board 5.

表ガラス9は、透過率の低いスモークパネル等の着色透光性部材で形成されている。表ガラス9は、見返し10を介してケース7に組み付けられる。表ガラス9は、文字板2の指標部22を透過した光を透過して利用者に向けて出射する。つまり、光源6が光輝したときに指標部22を視認可能とし且つ光源6が光輝しないときは視認を阻止することになる。なお、表ガラス9は、透明な透光性部材であっても差し支えない。   The front glass 9 is formed of a colored translucent member such as a smoke panel having a low transmittance. The front glass 9 is assembled to the case 7 through the turning 10. The front glass 9 transmits the light transmitted through the indicator portion 22 of the dial 2 and emits it toward the user. That is, when the light source 6 shines, the indicator portion 22 can be visually recognized, and when the light source 6 does not shine, the visual recognition is blocked. The front glass 9 may be a transparent translucent member.

次に、上述した構成の本発明に係る指針(自発光指針)3及び車両用表示装置1の表示における動作(作用)の一例を説明する。   Next, an example of the operation (action) in the display of the pointer (self-luminous pointer) 3 and the vehicle display device 1 according to the present invention having the above-described configuration will be described.

車両用表示装置1は、車両のイグニッションスイッチのオン等に応じて光源6を発光させる。そして、指針3は、光源6の発した光を指針本体33の基部32の受光部32aで受光すると、その光を基部32内に導光した後に反射面32bで指示部31の先端方向に反射する。そして、その光は、指示部31における内面反射等によって指示部31の先端に向かって導光される。そのとき、指示部31の上面から出射した光の一部は、透光性着色部材36を透過してスリット35から観測者等に向かって出射する。これにより、観測者は指針3の指示部31の指示方向に延びるスリット35を発光視認する。そして、車両用表示装置1は、内機4の駆動を制御して、表示対象の計測量に応じた指示位置を指針3の指示部31が指示するように指針3を回動させることで、文字板2の指標部と指針3の指示部31とを協働させて計測量を表示することになる。   The vehicle display device 1 causes the light source 6 to emit light in response to turning on of an ignition switch of the vehicle. When the pointer 3 receives the light emitted from the light source 6 by the light receiving portion 32a of the base portion 32 of the pointer main body 33, the light is guided into the base portion 32 and then reflected by the reflecting surface 32b toward the distal end of the indication portion 31. To do. Then, the light is guided toward the tip of the instruction unit 31 by internal reflection or the like in the instruction unit 31. At that time, part of the light emitted from the upper surface of the instruction unit 31 passes through the translucent colored member 36 and is emitted from the slit 35 toward the observer or the like. Thereby, the observer visually recognizes the light emission of the slit 35 extending in the direction indicated by the indication unit 31 of the pointer 3. And the display apparatus 1 for vehicles controls the drive of the internal unit 4, and rotates the indicator 3 so that the instruction | indication part 31 of the indicator 3 instruct | indicates the indication position according to the measurement amount of a display object, The measured amount is displayed in cooperation with the indicator portion of the dial 2 and the instruction portion 31 of the pointer 3.

以上説明した自発光指針3によれば、指針本体33の指示部31内を導光した光はその指示部31から出射すると、透光性着色部材36を透過した光が指針キャップ34の第1カバー34a(カバー部材)のスリット35を通過するようにしたことから、指示部31内を導光する光が従来の着色層等によって減衰することを防止できるため、高輝度の光源6を用いることなく、指示部31を覆う第1カバー34aのスリット35から効率よく光を出射することができる。また、透光性着色部材36は指針本体31と第1カバー34aに着脱自在に形成したことから、視認者の好みに応じた色の透光性着色部材36を用いることもできるため、視認者の個別対応を図ることができ、デザイン性の向上に貢献することができる。   According to the self-light emitting pointer 3 described above, when the light guided through the instruction portion 31 of the pointer main body 33 is emitted from the instruction portion 31, the light transmitted through the translucent colored member 36 is the first of the pointer cap 34. Since the light passes through the slit 35 of the cover 34a (cover member), the light guided through the indicator 31 can be prevented from being attenuated by a conventional colored layer or the like. Therefore, the high-intensity light source 6 is used. In addition, the light can be efficiently emitted from the slit 35 of the first cover 34 a that covers the instruction unit 31. In addition, since the translucent coloring member 36 is detachably formed on the pointer main body 31 and the first cover 34a, the translucent coloring member 36 having a color according to the viewer's preference can be used. Can be individually handled and can contribute to the improvement of design.

また、透光性着色部材36を貫通して位置決めする突出部34cを第1カバー34aに形成するようにしたことから、透光性着色部材36を突出部34cに貫通させることで、スリット35を塞ぐように位置付けることができるため、透光性着色部材36の組み付けの簡単化を図ることができる。また、第1カバー34aのスリット35からの透光性着色部材36のズレを防止できるため、組み付け性の向上を図ることができる。   In addition, since the first cover 34a is formed with the projecting portion 34c that penetrates and positions the translucent coloring member 36, the slit 35 is formed by penetrating the translucent coloring member 36 into the projecting portion 34c. Since it can position so that it may block, the assembly of translucent coloring member 36 can be simplified. Moreover, since the shift | offset | difference of the translucent coloring member 36 from the slit 35 of the 1st cover 34a can be prevented, the improvement of an assembly | attachment property can be aimed at.

透光性着色部材36を挟持して位置決めする挟持部34dを第1カバー34a内に形成するようにしたことから、スリット35を確実に塞ぐように透光性着色部材36を第1カバー34a内に位置決めすると共に、その透光性着色部材36を保持することができる。   Since the holding portion 34d for holding and positioning the translucent colored member 36 is formed in the first cover 34a, the translucent colored member 36 is placed in the first cover 34a so as to reliably close the slit 35. And the translucent coloring member 36 can be held.

さらに、自発光指針3は、指針本体33の指示部31の幅方向の断面を、第1カバー34aのスリット35に向けて徐々に狭くなるように形成したことから、指示部31内を導光した光を効率良くスリット35に向けて出射させることができるため、指示部31(スリット35)全体を通して輝度を低下させることなく所望の発光を実現することができる。   Furthermore, since the self-light emitting pointer 3 is formed so that the cross section in the width direction of the indicating portion 31 of the pointer main body 33 is gradually narrowed toward the slit 35 of the first cover 34a, the light emitting pointer 3 is guided through the indicating portion 31. Since the emitted light can be efficiently emitted toward the slit 35, desired light emission can be realized without lowering the luminance throughout the instruction unit 31 (slit 35).

また、自発光指針3は、透光性着色部材36を載置する載置部31bを指針本体33に形成するようにしたことから、透光性着色部材36のスリット35に対する傾き、撓みを抑制することができるため、視認性の低下を防止すると共に、組み付け性の向上を図ることができる。   Further, since the light emitting pointer 3 is provided with the mounting portion 31b on which the translucent coloring member 36 is mounted on the pointer main body 33, the tilting and bending of the translucent coloring member 36 with respect to the slit 35 are suppressed. Therefore, the visibility can be prevented from being lowered and the assembling property can be improved.

このような自発光指針3を有する車両用表示装置1によれば、自発光指針3によって光源6の輝度を上げることなく、高輝度の表示を行うことができるため、消費電力の増加を防止することができる。また、所望の表示色で自発光指針3を表示することができるため、車両用表示装置1のデザイン性に自由度を持たせることができる。   According to the vehicular display device 1 having such a self-light emitting pointer 3, since the high-luminance display can be performed without increasing the luminance of the light source 6 by the self-light emitting pointer 3, an increase in power consumption is prevented. be able to. Moreover, since the self-light emitting pointer 3 can be displayed in a desired display color, the design of the vehicular display device 1 can be given a degree of freedom.

なお、上述した実施形態では、本発明に係るカバー部材を指針キャップ34の第1カバー34aとした場合について説明したが、本発明はこれに限定するものではなく、例えば、指示部31のみを覆うキャップ部材とするなど種々異なる実施形態とすることができる。   In the above-described embodiment, the case where the cover member according to the present invention is the first cover 34a of the pointer cap 34 has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and, for example, covers only the instruction unit 31. Various embodiments such as a cap member can be used.

However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, various kinds of devices such as measuring instruments and watches It can be applied to electronic equipment.

なお、上述した実施形態では、指針キャップ34に突出部34cと挟持部34dの双方を形成した場合について説明したが、本発明はこれに限定するものではなく、例えば、挟持部34dのみを設ける、突出部34cのみを複数設ける、など種々異なる実施形態とすることができる。   In the above-described embodiment, the case where both the protruding portion 34c and the sandwiching portion 34d are formed on the pointer cap 34 has been described. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and for example, only the sandwiching portion 34d is provided. Various embodiments such as providing a plurality of protrusions 34c alone may be employed.

このように上述した実施例は本発明の代表的な形態を示したに過ぎず、本発明は、実施形態に限定されるものではない。即ち、本発明の骨子を逸脱しない範囲で種々変形して実施することができる。   As described above, the above-described embodiments are merely representative forms of the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the embodiments.
