Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to an automobile interior lamp that illuminates the interior of an automobile.

<Conventional technology> Conventional interior lamps for automobiles were installed in a stationary manner on the vehicle body, which resulted in the problem that many interior lamps had to be installed when illuminating a large interior such as a one-box car. Ta.

<Problems to be solved by the invention> The present invention was devised in view of these conventional problems, and allows the lamp unit to be easily and freely moved, and the lighting direction can be changed from the ceiling to the floor. It is an object of the present invention to provide a room lamp for an automobile which can be freely varied and therefore requires only a small number of installations even when illuminating a large room such as a one-box car.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The present automobile room lamp which achieves the above object has a printed wiring board arranged along the longitudinal direction of the slide rail, and the printed wiring board and the printed wiring board arranged on the slide rail. This device is characterized in that a machine frame equipped with electrically contacting sliding contacts is slidably attached, and a lamp unit is attached to the machine frame so that it can be raised and lowered.

<Example> Hereinafter, an example of implementing the present invention will be described based on the drawings.

Figure 1 shows the appearance of the automotive room lamp of the present invention, in which 1 is the slide rail, 2 is the machine frame, and 3 is the sliding rail.
is a lamp unit.

The slide rail 1 is for movably supporting the machine frame 2 of the lamp unit 3, and is formed into a long shape with a substantially C-shaped cross section.
Attach it to the ceiling or above the door. This slide rail 1 may be used alone, but
It may also be combined with the interior curtain rail 4 as in the illustrated embodiment. And this slide rail 1
A printed wiring board 5 for supplying electricity to the lamp unit 3 is installed on the inner surface of the lamp unit 3 along its longitudinal direction. In the figure, 5a indicates printed wiring on the printed wiring board 5.

The machine frame 2 is formed into a substantially U-shape in plan, with a leg 2a that slidably engages with the slide rail 1, and two support arms 2b, 2b that support the lamp unit 3 in a vertically movable manner. A sliding contact 6 that electrically contacts the printed wiring 5a of the slide rail 1 is provided on the outer surface of the slide rail 2a, and a flashing switch 7 is installed on the side surface of the slide rail 1. The sliding contact 6 is brought into contact with the printed wiring 5a of the slide rail, and the lamp unit 3 is pivotally mounted over the two support arms 2b, 2b so as to be able to move up and down.

The lamp unit 3 includes a reflecting mirror 3b and a light source bulb 3 inside a housing 3a formed in a box shape.
c is installed, and a front lens 3d is installed in front of the housing 3a.
Mounting holes 32a, 32a in the side wall parts 31a, 31a of
A pivot portion 21b, which is formed into an opening and protrudes from the support arms 2b, 2b of the machine frame 2 into the mounting holes 32a, 32a.
21b is rotatably inserted, and the light source bulb 3c is electrically connected to the sliding contact 6 and switch 7 of the machine frame 2 via the cord 8.

<Effects of the invention> Since the automobile room lamp of the present invention is constructed in this way, the lamp unit can be easily and freely moved to a desired position within the range where the slide rail is laid, and it can also be freely moved at that position. It can be turned on and off.

Moreover, the lamp unit can provide variable illumination in any direction from the ceiling to the floor inside the car, and if the illumination direction is directed toward the ceiling inside the car, it can also be used for indirect lighting.

Therefore, even when lighting a large interior of a one-box car, only a small number of lamps are required, and even when it is desired to increase the number of lamps, the number can be easily increased without changing the interior layout of the car.

Furthermore, since a printed wiring board is installed on the slide rail, the area where the slide rail is installed can be used as a power outlet for other electric appliances (for example, a razor).

Furthermore, since the sliding rail is combined with the curtain rail and a printed wiring board is placed on the sliding rail, the installation space of the indoor curtain rail can be effectively utilized and installation can be performed without requiring special installation space. At the same time, the wiring for the lamp unit can be disposed in an attractive manner without attracting attention.

Therefore, the intended purpose can be achieved.

[Brief explanation of the drawing]

The drawings show an example of the implementation of the present invention; FIG. 1 is a perspective view, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional plan view, and FIG. 3 is a vertical cross-sectional side view. In the figure, 1 is a slide rail, 2 is a machine frame, 3 is a lamp unit, 5 is a printed wiring board, and 6 is a sliding contact.
