Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a tail lamp that incorporates a direction indicator lamp, a stop lamp, etc., and is used by being attached to the rear of an automobile.

(Prior Art) Various structures are known for this type of tail lamp incorporating direction indicator lamps, stop lamps, etc. Among them, one is known to have a structure in which a light bulb socket is attached to a resin holder plate. The structure shown in FIG. 4 is known.

In this known technique, a is a holder plate made of resin, and a housing or a lens b is appropriately attached to the holder plate. A plurality of light bulbs c, d, and e are attached to this holder plate a, and the sockets f, into which these light bulbs are inserted are
A plurality of boss parts i for fixing g and h are integrally formed, and a cord holder part j and a light shielding plate k are also integrally formed. A wiring cord is connected to each of the sockets, and the wiring cord is disposed in the lamp together with the light bulb.

Therefore, in the conventional example, not only is the cord sheathing damaged by the heat of the light bulbs c, d, and e, or the cord is damaged by being pressed against the socket, but also holes must be made in the light shielding plate k. The wiring cord had to be inserted through the hole, which caused problems such as light leaking into other rooms.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The present invention solves the problem of damage to the cord sheathing of the wiring cord due to the heat and pressure of the socket, which was caused by the structure in which the wiring cord is disposed together with the light bulb in the conventional example. This was done to solve problems such as light leakage.

(Means for Solving the Problems) A specific means for solving the above problems is to provide a tail lamp with a resin holder plate to which a light bulb socket is attached, by attaching a hinge portion to one side of the holder plate. A cord protection cover corresponding to the shape of the back surface of the holder plate is integrally provided through the holder plate, a wiring cord connected to the light bulb socket is taken out to the back surface side of the holder plate, and the cord protection cover is attached to the back surface of the holder plate. This automobile tail lamp is characterized in that the wiring cord is protected by being folded back and combined with the back side, and since the wiring cord is all taken out to the back side of the holder plate, it will not be affected by the heat of the bulb or the pressing force of the socket. This not only prevents damage to the cord sheathing, but also prevents light from leaking into adjacent rooms.

(Example) Next, the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the illustrated example. Reference numeral 1 denotes a resin holder plate, and a plurality of boss portions 2 are integrally formed on the inner surface of the holder plate. At the same time, a light shielding rib 3 for partitioning the inside of the lamp is integrally formed. A plurality of holes 4 and 5 are formed adjacent to these bosses to take out wiring cords to the back side of the holder plate 1, which will be described later.Furthermore, an engagement hole 6 into which a hook portion of a cord protection cover, which will be described later, engages is formed. It is provided.

A cord protection cover 8 is further integrally connected to one side of the holder plate 1 via a hinge portion 7. This cord protection cover 8 corresponds to the shape of the back side of the holder plate 1, and when folded back from the hinge portion 7 to the back side and overlapped, the holder plate 1 and the cord protection cover 8 substantially match. It's becoming like that. A slightly rising wall 9 is provided on the periphery of the cord protection cover 8, a hook portion 10 is provided at a position corresponding to the engagement hole 6, and a hole 11 into which a cord grommet is fitted is provided at an appropriate position. It is provided.

When a plurality of light bulbs 21, 22, 23 are attached and wired to the holder plate 1 configured in this way, the sockets 24, 25, 26 into which these light bulbs are inserted are arranged as shown in FIG. The mounting wings 24a, 25a, 26a are fixed to the corresponding boss parts 2 with screws 27, 28, 29, and the wiring cords 3 are connected to the respective sockets 24, 25, 26.
0, 31, and 32 are taken out to the back side of the holder plate 1 from nearby holes 4 and 5, respectively. This taken out wiring cord is tied up with a cord grommet 33 or the like so that it does not come apart. and,
The cord protection cover 8 connected to the holder plate 1 is folded back at the hinge part 7 and positioned on the back side of the holder plate 1, and the hook part 10 is inserted into the engagement hole 6.
engage and secure. At this time, the cord grommet 33 is fitted into the hole 11, and the wiring cord is taken out to the outside through the cord grommet, or a connector or the like is used instead of the cord grommet, and the connector faces the hole 11 so that the wiring cord can be taken out from the outside. It is designed so that it can be electrically connected using an appropriate plug or outlet. Therefore, the wiring cord taken out to the back side of the holder plate 1 is hidden from view from the outside by the cord protection cover 8.

A housing 34 and a lens 35 are attached to the holder plate 1 on which the light bulb and wiring cord are arranged in the same way as in the conventional example, thereby completing the lamp as shown in FIG. 3.

(Effect of the invention) As explained above, the automobile tail lamp according to the invention is equipped with a resin holder plate, and one side of the holder plate has a hinge part that corresponds to the shape of the back surface of the holder plate. The wiring cord connected to the light bulb installed inside the lamp is taken out to the back side of the holder plate and protected by the cord protection cover, so the wiring cord is protected by the cord protection cover. Unlike in the past, the cord is not wired together with the bulb inside the lamp, and the cord covering is not damaged by the heat of the bulb or the pressure of the socket, resulting in an excellent safety effect. .

In addition, when installing the wiring cord, there is no need to drill holes in partition walls such as light-shielding ribs, and there is no light leaking into the partitioned room from other rooms, making it a highly reliable light fixture. Become.

Furthermore, since the wiring cord taken out to the back side of the holder plate is hidden by the cord protection cover so that it cannot be seen from the outside, it has a good appearance and has the excellent effect of increasing the product value.
