Zeichnungdrawing

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist in der Zeichnung dargestellt und in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher erläutert. Die Figur zeigt eine Beleuchtungseinrichtung in einem horizontalen Längsschnitt in vereinfachter Darstellung.An embodiment of the invention is in the drawing shown and in the following description explained. The figure shows a lighting device in a horizontal longitudinal section in simplified Presentation.

Beschreibung des AusführungsbeispielsDescription of the embodiment

In der Figur ist eine Beleuchtungseinrichtung für Kraftfahrzeuge dargestellt, die ein Scheinwerfer oder eine Scheinwerferleuchteneinheit ist, die am Frontende der Karosserie des Kraftfahrzeugs angeordnet ist. Die Beleuchtungseinrichtung weist ein Gehäuse 10 auf, das eine Lichtaustrittsöffnung 12 aufweist, die mit einer lichtdurchlässigen Scheibe 14 abgedeckt ist. Die Abdeckscheibe 14 ist am Gehäuse 10 befestigt. Im Gehäuse 10 ist wenigstens ein Reflektor 16 angeordnet, in den wenigstens eine Lichtquelle 18 in Form einer Glühlampe oder einer Gasentladungslampe eingesetzt ist. Durch den Reflektor 16 wird von der Lichtquelle 18 ausgesandtes Licht reflektiert, das durch die Abdeckscheibe 14 austritt. Im Gehäuse 10 können mehrere Reflektoren und/oder Lichtquellen angeordnet sein, die für unterschiedliche Lichtfunktionen dienen, wie Abblendlicht, Fernlicht, Nebellicht, und/oder für Signalfunktionen dienen, wie Begrenzungsleuchte oder Blinkleuchte dienen. Beim dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel dient der Reflektor 16 mit der Lichtquelle 18 zur Erzeugung eines Abblendlichtbündels und/oder eines Fernlichtbündels und/oder eines Nebellichtbündels. Neben dem Reflektor 16 ist im Gehäuse 10 ein weiterer Reflektor 20 mit einer Lichtquelle 22 angeordnet, die eine Blinkleuchte bilden, wobei das vom Reflektor 20 reflektierte Lichtbündel durch die Abdeckscheibe 14 hindurchtritt. Die erforderliche Signalfarbe für die Blinkleuchte kann durch eine entsprechend gefärbte Lichtquelle 22, durch eine Färbung der Reflexionsfläche des Reflektors, durch ein zwischen dem Reflektor 20 und der Abdeckscheibe 22 angeordnetes Farbfilter oder durch eine entsprechende Färbung des Teilbereichs der Abdeckscheibe 14, durch die vom Reflektor 20 reflektiertes Licht hindurchtritt, erreicht werden.In the figure is a lighting device for Motor vehicles shown that have a headlight or a Headlight lamp unit is the one at the front end of the Body of the motor vehicle is arranged. The Lighting device has a housing 10, the one Light exit opening 12 having a translucent disc 14 is covered. The Cover plate 14 is attached to the housing 10. In the housing 10 at least one reflector 16 is arranged in the at least one light source 18 in the form of an incandescent lamp or a gas discharge lamp is used. Through the reflector 16 is light emitted by the light source 18 reflected, which exits through the cover plate 14. in the Housing 10 can have multiple reflectors and / or light sources be arranged for different light functions serve as low beam, high beam, fog light, and / or serve for signal functions, such as position lights or Flashing light serve. In the illustrated embodiment serves the reflector 16 with the light source 18 for generation a low beam and / or a high beam and / or a fog light beam. In addition to the reflector 16 is in the housing 10 another reflector 20 with a Light source 22 arranged, which form a flashing light, the light beam reflected by the reflector 20 through the cover plate 14 passes through. The required Signal color for the flashing light can be changed by a correspondingly colored light source 22, by coloring the Reflection surface of the reflector, by a between which Reflector 20 and the cover plate 22 arranged Color filter or by appropriate coloring of the Part of the cover plate 14 through the reflector 20 reflected light passes through, can be achieved.

Die Abdeckscheibe 14 besteht aus Kunststoff, vorzugsweise aus thermoplatischem Kunststoff, beispielsweise PC (Polycarbonat) oder PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylat). Die Abdeckscheibe 14 wird vorzugsweise in einem Spritzgiessverfahren hergestellt. Die Abdeckscheibe 14 kann zumindest im wesentlichen glatt ausgebildet sein, das heisst, dass an dieser keine optischen Profile ausgebildet sind und das vom Reflektor 16 reflektierte Licht zumindest im wesentlichen unbeeinflusst durch die Abdeckscheibe 14 hindurchtritt. Alternativ kann die Abdeckscheibe 14 auch zumindest bereichsweise optische Profile aufweisen, durch die hindurchtretendes Licht abgelenkt und/oder gestreut wird. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass die Abdeckscheibe 14 nicht farblos ausgebildet ist, sondern eine derartige Tönung aufweist, dass die Abdeckscheibe 14 ein Erscheinungsbild besitzt, das Glas zumindest ähnlich ist. Die Abdeckscheibe 14 kann insbesondere eine grüne Tönung aufweisen, die ähnlich der bekannter Wärmeschutzverglasungen der Karosserie von Kraftfahrzeugen ist. The cover plate 14 is made of plastic, preferably made of thermoplastic, for example PC (Polycarbonate) or PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate). The Cover plate 14 is preferably in one Injection molding process manufactured. The cover plate 14 can be at least substantially smooth, the means that no optical profiles are formed on it and at least the light reflected by the reflector 16 essentially unaffected by the cover plate 14 passes through. Alternatively, the cover plate 14 can also have optical profiles at least in regions, by the light passing through is deflected and / or scattered becomes. According to the invention it is provided that the cover plate 14 is not colorless, but such Tint has that the cover 14 a Appearance, the glass is at least similar. The cover 14 can in particular be a green tint have that similar to the known thermal insulation glazing the body of motor vehicles.

Die Tönung der Abdeckscheibe 14 kann beispielsweise dadurch erreicht werden, dass das Kunststoffgranulat, aus dem die Abdeckscheibe 14 hergestellt wird, entsprechend gefärbt ist oder dass diesem zumindest ein Anteil an gefärbtem Kunststoffgranulat beigemischt wird. Bei der Herstellung auf diese Weise erhält man eine durchgefärbte Abdeckscheibe.The tint of the cover plate 14 can, for example, thereby be achieved that the plastic granulate from which the Cover plate 14 is made, is colored accordingly or that this at least a portion of colored Plastic granulate is added. When manufacturing on in this way you get a solid colored cover.

Die Tönung der Abdeckscheibe 14 kann alternativ auch dadurch erreicht werden, dass diese mit einer entsprechend gefärbten Beschichtung 24 versehen wird. Die Beschichtung 24 kann beispielsweise grün gefärbt sein und ist vorzugsweise auf der Aussenseite der Abdeckscheibe 14 aufgebracht. Die Abdeckscheibe 14 selbst kann in diesem Fall farblos sein.The tint of the cover plate 14 can alternatively also can be achieved with a suitably colored Coating 24 is provided. The coating 24 can for example, be colored green and is preferably on applied to the outside of the cover plate 14. The Cover plate 14 itself can be colorless in this case.

Die Färbung der Abdeckscheibe 14 oder der Beschichtung 24 ist derart, dass deren Erscheinung bei der Betrachtung von aussen zwar entsprechend getönt ist, jedoch die Farbe des durch die Abdeckscheibe 14 hindurchtretenden Lichts nicht oder nur unwesentlich verändert wird und somit der für das aus der Beleuchtungseinrichtung austretende Licht vorgeschriebene Farbort nicht unzulässig verändert wird. Das aus der Beleuchtungseinrichtung austretende Licht für Abblendlicht, Fernlicht, Nebellicht oder Begrenzungslicht liegt somit weiterhin im Bereich des vorgeschriebenen weissen Farborts und das für die Blinkleuchte austretende Licht liegt weiterhin im Bereich des vorgeschriebenen orangen Farbort.The coloring of the cover plate 14 or the coating 24 is such that its appearance when viewed from the outside is tinted accordingly, but the color of the light passing through the cover plate 14 is not or is changed only insignificantly and thus for that light emerging from the lighting device prescribed color location is not changed inadmissibly. The light emerging from the lighting device for Low beam, high beam, fog light or side light is therefore still in the range of the prescribed white color locus and the one emerging for the flashing light Light continues to be within the prescribed range orange color locus.
