Description

Système d'éclairage monté dans un véhicule et véhicule comprenant un tel système d'éclairage. A lighting system mounted in a vehicle and a vehicle comprising such a lighting system.
La présente invention se rapporte à un système d'éclairage. Plus particulièrement elle concerne un système d'éclairage monté dans un véhicule comprenant une porte et une poignée de porte, ce système comprenant au moins une source lumineuse émettant un faisceau lumineux et étant raccordée au réseau électrique du véhicule, un support dans lequel est monté la source lumineuse, le support étant disposé adjacent à la poignée de porte.The present invention relates to a lighting system. More particularly, it relates to a lighting system mounted in a vehicle comprising a door and a door handle, this system comprising at least one light source emitting a light beam and being connected to the electrical network of the vehicle, a support in which is mounted the light source, the support being disposed adjacent to the door handle.
Dans les systèmes d'éclairage existant dans l'art antérieur, les sources lumineuses sont montées dans différents endroits du véhicule. Par exemple, les systèmes d'éclairage permettant d'indiquer la direction vers laquelle un véhicule va se déplacer sont disposés, habituellement, dans les ailes avant dudit véhicule, et les systèmes d'éclairage permettant de visualiser les abords du véhicule lors du déverrouillage des portes à distance sont disposés dans la partie inférieure des rétroviseurs.In existing lighting systems in the prior art, the light sources are mounted in different locations of the vehicle. For example, the lighting systems for indicating the direction in which a vehicle will move are usually disposed in the front wings of said vehicle, and the lighting systems for viewing the surroundings of the vehicle when unlocking the vehicles. Remote doors are arranged in the lower part of the mirrors.
Ces systèmes d'éclairage nécessitent des câblages pour relier la source lumineuse au système électrique du véhicule. Cette disposition impose donc de faire passer des câbles électriques dans des zones mobiles par rapport à la porte, ce qui entraîne un montage complexe et coûteux.These lighting systems require wiring to connect the light source to the electrical system of the vehicle. This provision therefore requires the passage of electrical cables in moving areas relative to the door, resulting in a complex and expensive installation.
La présente invention vise à remédier à ces inconvénients.The present invention aims to remedy these disadvantages.
Pour cela la présente invention propose un système d'éclairage tel que décrit ci-dessus, caractérisé en ce que le support est monté fixe sur la porte du véhicule, et en ce que le système comporte en outre un premier guide de lumière disposé dans le support et adapté à diriger le faisceau lumineux vers au moins un deuxième guide de lumière disposé dans la poignée de porte.For this purpose the present invention proposes a lighting system as described above, characterized in that the support is fixedly mounted on the vehicle door, and in that the system further comprises a first light guide disposed in the support and adapted to direct the light beam to at least a second light guide disposed in the door handle.
Grâce à ces caractéristiques, la source lumineuse, qui est montée sur la face intérieure ou extérieure de la porte, est reliée à la distribution électrique de la porte, et ainsi la source et la distribution électrique forment un ensemble fixe, c'est-à-dire qu'elles sont disposées toutes les deux dans la porte. Ces caractéristiques permettent de limiter les problèmes liés au passages de fils électriques entre deux parties de véhicule mobiles l'une par rapport à l'autre. Ainsi il n'est pas nécessaire de faire passer les câbles électriques dans la poignée de porte qui est mobile par rapport à la porte.Thanks to these characteristics, the light source, which is mounted on the face inside or outside the door, is connected to the electrical distribution of the door, and so the source and the electrical distribution form a fixed assembly, that is to say that they are both arranged in the door. These features make it possible to limit the problems associated with the passage of electrical wires between two moving parts of the vehicle relative to one another. Thus it is not necessary to pass the electric cables in the door handle that is movable relative to the door.
Selon d'autres caractéristiques, - le système d'éclairage comporte au moins un guide de lumière adapté à diffuser la lumière émise par la source selon au moins une direction déterminée ; le guide de lumière est disposé dans le support ; un deuxième guide de lumière est disposé dans la poignée de porte ; le guide de lumière est adapté pour orienter la lumière entre poignée et la porte du véhicule, de manière à éclairer un passage de main ; - le guide de lumière est disposé sur la face extérieure de la poignée de porte de manière à diffuser le faisceau lumineux vers l'extérieur de la poignée, notamment pour la fonction de répétiteurs latéraux ; - le système d'éclairage comporte au moins deux sources lumineuses de couleur différentes.According to other features, the lighting system comprises at least one light guide adapted to diffuse the light emitted by the source in at least one determined direction; the light guide is disposed in the support; a second light guide is disposed in the door handle; the light guide is adapted to direct the light between the handle and the door of the vehicle, so as to illuminate a passage of hand; - The light guide is disposed on the outer face of the door handle so as to diffuse the light beam to the outside of the handle, in particular for the function of lateral repeaters; the lighting system comprises at least two different colored light sources.
L'invention concerne aussi un véhicule comprenant un système d'éclairage selon l'une des revendications précédentes.The invention also relates to a vehicle comprising a lighting system according to one of the preceding claims.
La présente invention sera décrite plus en détails à la lumière des dessins annexés, dans lesquels:The present invention will be described in more detail in the light of the accompanying drawings, in which:
-la figure 1 représente une vue partielle extérieure d'une porte d'un véhicule,FIG 1 shows an external partial view of a door of a vehicle,
- la figure 2 représente la partie de la porte destinée à recevoir une poignée, - la figure 3 est vue partielle de l'intérieur de la poignée selon une première variante de réalisation,FIG. 2 represents the portion of the door intended to receive a handle; FIG. 3 is a partial view of the interior of the handle according to a first variant embodiment;
- la figure 4 est une vue de la face extérieure de la poignée de porte selon une deuxième variante de réalisation, - la figure 5 représente un support d'une source lumineuse.FIG. 4 is a view of the outside face of the door handle according to a second variant embodiment, - Figure 5 shows a support of a light source.
La figure 1 représente une porte 10 d'un véhicule, constituée d'un corps principal formé de tôle. Une poignée mobile 12 de porte est montée sur la porte et permet l'ouverture de celle-ci. Un passage de main 14 réalisé par une concavité est formée dans la porte 10 au niveau de la poignée 12 de porte.Figure 1 shows a door 10 of a vehicle, consisting of a main body formed of sheet metal. A movable handle 12 of door is mounted on the door and allows the opening thereof. A hand passage 14 made by a concavity is formed in the door 10 at the door handle 12.
Une source lumineuse raccordée au réseau électrique du véhicule est disposée dans la porte 10 de manière à éclairer la poignée 12 de porte. Pour cela la source lumineuse est montée dans un support 16, représenté à la figure 5, ce support 16 étant monté adjacent à la poignée 12 de porte. Le support 16 peut être disposé directement dans la porte 10 ou bien il peut être disposé dans une partie intermédiaire 18 fixée à la porte et adaptée à relier la poignée 12 à la porte 10. Le support 16 peut être monté sur la porte par des moyens de clipsage, par vissage ou tout autre moyen de fixation connu.A light source connected to the electrical network of the vehicle is disposed in the door 10 so as to illuminate the door handle 12. For this the light source is mounted in a support 16, shown in Figure 5, the support 16 being mounted adjacent to the door handle 12. The support 16 can be arranged directly in the door 10 or it can be arranged in an intermediate portion 18 fixed to the door and adapted to connect the handle 12 to the door 10. The support 16 can be mounted on the door by means clipping, screwing or any other known fastening means.
Grâce à cette disposition, la lumière est diffusée sur et à proximité de la poignée 12 de porte. De plus l'ensemble des câblages électriques sont disposés à l'intérieur de la porte 10, ce qui limite les risques et les problèmes de conception liés au passage des fils électriques entre la porte 10 et la poignée de porte. La porte bénéficie d'un câblage électrique dont une partie sera réutilisée pour l'alimentation électrique du système d'éclairage.With this arrangement, the light is diffused on and near the door handle 12. In addition all the electrical wiring are arranged inside the door 10, which limits the risks and design problems related to the passage of electrical son between the door 10 and the door handle. The door has electrical wiring, some of which will be reused for the power supply of the lighting system.
Afin d'orienter le faisceau lumineux émis par la source de lumière, le système d'éclairage selon l'invention comporte un guide de lumière 20 adapté à diffuser la lumière selon au moins une direction déterminée. Le guide 20 projette le faisceau sortant de la source lumineuse sur une surface cible.In order to orient the light beam emitted by the light source, the lighting system according to the invention comprises a light guide 20 adapted to diffuse the light in at least one determined direction. The guide 20 projects the beam emerging from the light source onto a target surface.
Le guide de lumière 20 est constitué d'un prisme en matériau transparent, tel que du PMMA ou du plexiglas ®.The light guide 20 consists of a transparent material prism, such as PMMA or Plexiglas ®.
Selon un premier mode de réalisation le guide 20 est monté directement sur le support 16 de la source lumineuse. Le guide 20 présente une forme sensiblement rectangulaire et est adapté pour que le faisceau lumineux soit dirigé vers une deuxième guide de lumière 22 disposé dans la poignée 12 de porte, ce dernier débouchant sur la face intérieure de la poignée 12, tel qu'illustré par la figure 3. Ainsi le passage de main 14 de la porte peut être éclairée par le faisceau lumineux.According to a first embodiment, the guide 20 is mounted directly on the support 16 of the light source. Guide 20 has a shape substantially rectangular and is adapted so that the light beam is directed towards a second light guide 22 disposed in the door handle 12, the latter opening on the inner face of the handle 12, as shown in Figure 3. Thus the 14 hand passage of the door can be illuminated by the light beam.
De plus, tel que représenté sur la figure 3, le deuxième guide 22a de lumière débouche de la face inférieure 26 de la poignée 12, de manière à éclairer la partie inférieure de la porte. Cette disposition est particulièrement avantageuse pour visualiser les abords du véhicule lors du déverrouillage des portes à distance.In addition, as shown in Figure 3, the second light guide 22a opens out from the underside 26 of the handle 12, so as to illuminate the lower part of the door. This arrangement is particularly advantageous for viewing the surroundings of the vehicle when unlocking remote doors.
Selon une variante de réalisation le deuxième guide de lumière 22b est monté dans la poignée de porte 12 et débouche sur la face extérieure 26 de la poignée 12. Cette disposition peut être utilisée par les répétiteurs latéraux. Pour cela le guide 22 de lumière est pourvu de facettes de renvoi sur toute la longueur de la poignée.According to an alternative embodiment the second light guide 22b is mounted in the door handle 12 and opens on the outer face 26 of the handle 12. This arrangement can be used by the side repeaters. For this purpose the light guide 22 is provided with return faces over the entire length of the handle.
Afin de remplir les fonctions de répétiteurs latéraux et d'éclairage de zone d'accès, le système d'éclairage peut comporter à la fois un guide de lumière 22a débouchant sur la face inférieure de la poignée et un guide de luimière 22b disposé sur la face extérieure de la poignée.In order to fulfill the functions of lateral repeaters and access zone lighting, the lighting system may comprise both a light guide 22a opening on the underside of the handle and a light guide 22b disposed on the outer face of the handle.
Selon une autre variante de réalisation, la source lumineuse comporte deux diodes de couleurs différente, par exemple une diode électroluminescente blanche et une diode électroluminescente jaune. Les faisceaux de couleur différentes sont orientés selon différentes directions. Par exemple le faisceau blanc pourra être orienté vers l'intérieur de la poignée 12, alors que le fasceau lumineux jaune pourra être orienté de manière à éclairer la face extérieure de la poignée 12.According to another variant embodiment, the light source comprises two diodes of different colors, for example a white light-emitting diode and a yellow light-emitting diode. The different colored beams are oriented in different directions. For example, the white beam may be oriented towards the interior of the handle 12, while the yellow light beam may be oriented so as to illuminate the outer face of the handle 12.
Bien que l'invention ait été décrite avec des moyens de réalisation particuliers, elle comprend tous les équivalents techniques des moyens décrits. Although the invention has been described with particular embodiments, it includes all the technical equivalents of the means described.
