Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

The present invention relates to a vehicular lamp and a vehicular decoration, and more particularly to a vehicular lamp and a vehicular decoration that can provide a good appearance. Here, the vehicle lamp refers to a rear combination lamp, a front combination lamp, a clearance lamp, a turn signal lamp, a fog lamp, a headlamp, etc. having a light source in a lamp room defined by a lamp housing and a lens. On the other hand, the vehicle accessory refers to a rear finisher, garnish, or the like having no light source in a room defined by a housing and a lens.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In general, a vehicular lamp has a lens housing in which a front opening of a lamp housing is covered with a lens, and a light source bulb and a reflection surface are arranged in a space (light room) surrounded by the lamp housing and the lens. Structure. When the vehicle lamp is turned on, light from the light source bulb passes through the lens and is projected forward of the lamp. The vehicular lamp is used for lighting, signal, decoration, and a combination thereof. Note that the light from the light source bulb described above is a light flux emitted from the light source bulb and directly
And / or luminous flux reflected by a reflector (a reflecting surface that is integral with or separate from the lamp housing). On the other hand, a vehicular accessory generally has a structure in which a front opening of a housing is covered with a lens, a reflection surface is disposed in a space (room) surrounded by the housing and the lens, and there is no light source. In this vehicle decoration, external light, environmental light, and the like (for example, sunlight, headlamp light of another vehicle, etc .; hereinafter, simply referred to as external light) on the outside are incident on a room through a lens, and It is reflected on the reflecting surface to perform a decoration function, and is used for decoration.

FIGS. 8A and 8B are two views showing a conventional example of a vehicular lamp, in which FIG. 8A is a horizontal sectional view, and FIG. It is the front view drawn by the line. A front lens 2 is mounted so as to cover a front opening of the lamp housing 1. A lamp socket 3 is provided through the rear surface of the lamp housing 1, and a light source bulb 4 and a reflection surface are provided in a space (light room) surrounded by the lamp housing 1 and the front lens 2. An inner reflector 5 is provided. The reflecting surface may be a reflector integrated with the lamp housing 1 other than the inner reflector 5 separate from the lamp housing 1 described above. In the drawing, reference numeral 9 denotes a colored transparent plate.

The front lens 2 has a lens light emitting portion L
And lens dummy portions D and D '. The difference between the light emitting portion L and the dummy portions D and D 'is mainly caused by the relationship with the lamp housing 1 and / or the inner reflector 5. That is, the direct light flux emitted from the light source bulb 4 and the light flux emitted from the light source bulb 4 and reflected by the inner reflector 5 enter and pass through the lens light emitting unit L. For this reason, when viewed from the front of the lamp at the time of lighting, the light emitting portion L appears to shine brightly. (Hereinafter, when it is not confusing, the lens light-emitting part is simply called a light-emitting part, and the lens dummy part is simply called a dummy part.) In contrast, the dummy part D and the dummy part D ′ are in the shadow of the inner reflector 5. Neither the direct light from the light source bulb 4 nor the light emitted from the light source bulb 4 and reflected by the inner reflector 5 enters. Therefore, the dummy portions D and D 'do not feel as if they are emitting light when viewed from the front of the lamp when lit. When external light enters as shown by an arrow a, for example, when the lamp is not lit, the light is reflected by the inner reflector 5 and emitted as shown by an arrow b.
For this reason, the dummy portions D and D 'appear to shine when receiving extraneous light when they are not lit, and achieve a decorative effect.

[0005]

Since the lighting of an automobile is one of the important elements constituting the design of the automobile,
More than just the optical properties fulfilling a given function,
It is also demanded that it be beautiful and be of interest to customers. However, in the conventional vehicle lamp, when not lit, the appearance of the front lens 2 is simply seen as it is,
Alternatively, there is a problem in appearance since the inner reflector 5 only appears to shine by reflection of extraneous light via the front lens 2. That is, (see FIG. 6 (A)), even if the line of sight looking at the lamp moves parallel from arrow c to arrow d, the arrow d
Even if the angle changes as shown by the arrow e, no particular novel change occurs in the appearance of the lamp front lens 2. On the other hand, the conventional vehicle decoration also has a problem in appearance since the appearance of the lens is simply seen as it is, or the reflection surface appears to shine by the reflection of extraneous light via the lens.

An object of the present invention is to provide a vehicular lamp having a good appearance when not lit, and a vehicular decoration having a good appearance.

[0013]

FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional plan view of a vehicle lamp according to an embodiment of the present invention, and corresponds to FIG. 8A illustrating a conventional example. The difference from the conventional example of FIG. 8 is that a printing sheet 6 configured as described in detail below is provided at a position where the colored transparent plate 9 according to the related art is provided. The installation location of the printing sheet 6 is basically along the front lens 2 and inside the front lens 2, but is separated from the front lens 2,
It can be arranged between the front lens 2 and the light source bulb 4. The print sheet 6 may be used as a lens instead of a lens. Printing sheet 6 above
Is a member obtained by performing pattern shape printing and vapor deposition on a transparent plate. The above-mentioned pattern shape is a general term for shapes in which voids are distributed, such as a honeycomb shape, a lattice shape, and a stripe shape.

FIGS. 2A and 2B show three examples of a pattern used for a printing sheet in a vehicular lamp according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2A is a partial plan view of a honeycomb pattern.
(B) is a partial plan view of a multi-circle pattern, and (C) is a partial plan view of a lattice-like pattern, where spots are formed on a substantial part of each pattern except for voids of each pattern. It is attached and drawn. The honeycomb pattern shown in FIG. (A) has regularly arranged regular hexagonal voids, and the lattice pattern shown in FIG. (C) has regularly arranged square voids. In practicing the present invention, other than the above examples, rectangular voids may be arranged, diamond-shaped or triangular voids may be arranged, and they need not necessarily be arranged regularly. In addition, irregular-shaped voids having no geometric name such as an ellipse or a trapezoid may be arranged. In short, in the present invention, a pattern means that a substantial portion and a void portion are distributed on a plane.

FIG. 1 is a sectional view of a printing sheet in a vehicular lamp according to an embodiment of the present invention.
It is a figure corresponding to any of -i section, JJ section, or KK section. Reference numeral 10 denotes a transparent plate (sheet), which in the present embodiment is made of a synthetic resin plate that is colorless and transparent, and is used with the right side in the figure facing the inside of the lamp and the left side in the figure facing the outside of the lamp. . An arbitrary pattern is set on the surface of the transparent plate 10 as a carrying margin. Zone m is the substantial part, zone n is the void,
Each is represented. Colored (for example, orange) transparent printed films 11a, 11b, and 11c are formed in a section m (substantial portion) on the inner surface of the transparent plate 10 by a printing technique.
By applying the printing technique, a transparent colored film can be formed quickly, easily, and at low cost in an accurate pattern shape.

On the outer surface of the transparent plate 10, facing the colored transparent printed film (ie, positioned at a substantial part m of the pattern), metal deposition films 12a and 12a are formed.
b, 12c are formed. Thereby, the printing sheet 6
When direct light and / or reflected light or extraneous light enters as shown by an arrow f from a light source bulb (not shown) located inside the lamp (right side in the figure), the colored transparent print film 11 is formed.
c, is colored, becomes colored light, and is reflected on the inner surface of the vapor deposition film 12c (this reflected colored light may pass through the colored transparent print film 11c again), and is inside the lamp as indicated by an arrow g. Emitted toward. The colored light indicated by the arrow g is scattered by being reflected or re-reflected in the lamp and then emitted to the outside of the lamp (left side in the figure) through the pattern gap (area n) of the print sheet 6. (Eg, arrow h). The arrow g
The reflected light is strongly colored and is similar to a parallel light flux, or is a simple diffused light flux. However, since the light of the arrow h that has been repeatedly reflected in the lamp is scattered light mixed with other light, The degree of coloring is faint, giving viewers a sense of depth and softness. Further, since the light colored light indicated by the arrow h leaks through the gap n of the pattern, the light is visible and hidden when the position or direction of the viewer changes, and changes dynamically.

As described above, the deposited films 12a, 12b, 12
Due to the internal reflection effect of c, a bright colored pattern is reflected on the reflective surface of the inner reflector 5, and the bright colored light reflected on the reflective surface is deposited on the vapor deposition film 1.
It appears and disappears by the movement of the line of sight from between the patterns of 2a, 12b and 12c, and changes while being influenced by the shape of the reflection surface, that is, it changes dynamically.

External light incident as shown by an arrow u in FIG. 1 is reflected on the outer surface of the vapor deposition film 12c and refracted by the convex (colorless) transparent print layer 13c in a light-collecting tendency. Out of the lamp. For this reason, a three-dimensional appearance of glitter is given to the appearance of the lamp. The brilliant effect in this operation is mainly given by the vapor deposited film 12c, and the three-dimensional effect is mainly given by the convex transparent print layer 13c. In this case, light having a glittering three-dimensional effect is colorless. Then, the above-mentioned convex transparent printing layer 13a, 1
If 3b and 13c are colored, light having colored glitter and three-dimensional effect can be obtained.

Light having a glittering three-dimensional appearance due to the outer surface reflection action of the above-described vapor-deposited films 12a, 12b, 12c appears to stop. A so-called static appearance is obtained. An even better appearance can be obtained by a synergistic effect of the static appearance and the dynamic change of colored light having a brilliant feeling due to the inner surface reflection action of the above-described deposited films 12a, 12b, 12c. This static appearance is
In the case of colored light, it appears remarkably.

As described above, the structure of the transparent print layer having a thickness and roundness and functioning as a plano-convex lens is as follows.
Unknown inventions (for example, 1997 Patent Application No. 109403)
) Can be easily implemented at low cost.

That is, in this embodiment, screen printing was performed using an ultraviolet curable ink (UV resin of 94 Wt% of urethane acrylate, 3 Wt% of photoreaction initiator, and 3 Wt% of auxiliary). The UV curable ink layered thick by screen printing has a convex curved outer surface due to surface tension, and cures when irradiated with UV light to be convex (colorless) transparent like a plano-convex lens as shown in FIG. Print layers 13a, 13b, and 13c are formed. The above-mentioned convex transparent printing layers 13a, 13b, and 13c include a hemispheric convex shape, an elliptic spherical convex shape, and the like in addition to the above-described plano-convex lens shape.

The viscosity of the ultraviolet curable ink is as follows: BH rotational viscometer 2 rpm 450 rpm 4 rpm 450 p 2 rpm 450 rpm 10 rpm 450 p 20 rpm 440 p Splat meter value 1 minute 21.5 The working conditions for the screen printing are as follows: squeegee pressure: 3 to 4.5 kg / cm squeegee speed: 20 to 30 cm / sec Number of meshes: 80 to 100 mesh It is. Further, the ultraviolet irradiation condition is as follows: ultraviolet energy density: 80 to 100 W / cm ² ultraviolet lamp specification: meta-halar lamp (one or two lamps); moving irradiation speed: 10 m / min. These values fall within the range of the embodiment disclosed in the above-mentioned unknown invention (Japanese Patent Application No. 9-109403).

Hereinafter, three embodiments will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5. The horizontal sectional view shown in FIG. 3 already described is substantially common to the three embodiments described below. FIG. FIG. 4 shows a vehicular lamp according to the present invention, wherein (A) and (B) are schematic front views of different embodiments, respectively, in which a front lens and a light source bulb are removed, and a printing sheet is indicated by parallel oblique lines. It is shown.
The print sheet 6 according to the embodiment of FIG. 4A has a shape and dimensions that can cover almost the entire surface of the inner reflector 5. Therefore, it has a shape and dimensions that cover all of the light emitting portion and the dummy portion of the front lens (not shown). With this configuration, a luminous three-dimensional appearance, a light color tone having depth and softness, and a dynamic appearance change can be obtained in both the lens light emitting portion and the lens dummy portion of the vehicle lamp. However, the amount of light projected by the lens light emitting unit L during lighting is slightly reduced because it is blocked by the deposited film in the substantial part of the pattern. Therefore, the embodiment shown in FIG. 4A is suitable for a case where it is desired to give priority to the improvement of the appearance even if the amount of the projected light is reduced.

In the printing sheet 7 in the embodiment of FIG. 4B, a non-pattern portion 7a is formed in a region corresponding to the light emitting portion L. According to this embodiment, the light emitting unit L has no reduction in the projected light amount and no improvement in appearance. Then, for the dummy portions D and D ', effects such as a brilliant three-dimensional effect, a deep and soft light color tone, and a dynamic appearance change can be obtained.

FIG. 5 is different from the embodiment of FIG. 4 (A) and the embodiment of FIG. 4 (B), and has advantages over these embodiments (A) and (B). The disadvantage is a schematic front view of the intermediate embodiment. The print sheet 8 shown in FIG. 5 has a dense pattern area and a sparse pattern area. More specifically, a dense pattern portion 8a is provided in a region corresponding to the dummy portions D and D ', and a sparse pattern portion 8b is provided in a region corresponding to the light emitting portion L. According to the embodiment of FIG. 5, the dummy portion DD ′ has the same three-dimensional appearance as in the embodiment of FIG.
A light color tone with depth and softness and a dynamic change in appearance can be obtained, and the light emitting portion L has a small decrease in the amount of light projected at the time of lighting, so that practical problems can be ignored. Light color tone with depth and softness at the time of lighting and glittering three-dimensional effect can be obtained to some extent. The degree can be selected by setting the degree of density of the pattern in a design manner.

FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view showing an embodiment of a vehicle accessory according to the present invention. In the drawings, the same reference numerals as those in FIGS. 1 to 5 denote the same components. In this vehicle accessory, for example, a rear finisher, a lens 101 is mounted so as to cover a front opening of a housing 100, and a chamber 102 is surrounded by the housing 100 and the lens 101. A printing sheet 600 is arranged along the above-described lens 101 or almost parallel to the lens 101. Inside the chamber 102, a reflector 103 which is separate from the housing 100 and has, for example, a zigzag reflection surface is arranged. Instead of using the separate reflector 103, a reflector integrated with the housing 100 may be used.

As shown in FIG. 1, the printing sheet 600 has a predetermined pattern of colored transparent printing films 11a, 11b, and 11c printed on the inner surface of the transparent plate 10, and the colored transparent printing film 11a. Films 11a, 11b, 11
c, a vapor-deposited film 12a, 12b, 12c is formed on the outer surface of the plate 10, and a convex (colorless) transparent print layer 13a is formed on the outer surface of the vapor-deposited film 12a, 12b, 12c. , 13b and 13c are formed.

Since the vehicle accessory of the present invention in this embodiment has the above-described configuration, when extraneous light is incident on the inner surface side of the printing sheet 600, the colored transparent printing film 11 is formed.
a, 11b, and 11c, which are colored, become colored light, are reflected by the deposited films 12a, 12b, and 12c, and a bright colored pattern is reflected on the reflecting surface of the reflector 103, and the reflecting surface is formed. The bright colored light reflected on the surface of the film is hidden by the movement of the line of sight from between the patterns of the vapor-deposited films 12a, 12b, and 12c, and changes while being influenced by the shape of the reflection surface, that is, changes dynamically. I can see

When external light is incident on the outside of the printing sheet 600, it is reflected by the outside reflection action of the deposited films 12a, 12b and 12c, and is reflected by the deposited films 12a, 12b and 12c.
12c outer convex transparent printed layers 13a, 13b, 1
In 3c, the light is refracted in the light-condensing tendency and is emitted to the front of the vehicle accessory, so that the appearance of the vehicle accessory has glitter and three-dimensional appearance, and it is possible to add an accent to the design of the automobile. As a result, a good appearance is obtained.

In particular, in the embodiment, since the reflector 103 having the reflection surface is disposed in the chamber 102, the extraneous light and the environment light incident through the lens 101 are reflected by the reflection surface of the reflector 103. And lens 10 again
1, the light is emitted to the outside.
The reflected light from the reflecting surface is combined with the colored light having the glittering metallic gloss and the three-dimensional effect to obtain a better appearance. In addition, the convex transparent printing layer 13 described above is used.
If a, 13b, and 13c are colored, light having colored glitter and three-dimensional effect can be obtained.

FIG. 7 shows a modification of the printing sheets 6, 8, and 600 used for the vehicular lamp and the vehicular decoration of the present invention. 2A, a vapor deposition film 12 having a predetermined pattern is formed on the inner surface of a transparent plate 10, and a colored transparent print film 11 is printed on the inner surface of the vapor deposition film 12. And colored transparent printing film 11
A convex colored transparent print layer 130 (or a convex colorless transparent print layer 13) is formed on the outer surface of the plate 10 so as to face the plate.

FIG. 3B shows a state in which a first colored transparent printed film 111 having a predetermined pattern is printed on the inner surface of the transparent plate 10, and the first colored transparent printed film 111 is opposed to the first colored transparent printed film 111. A vapor-deposited film 12 is formed on the outer surface of the substrate 10, and a second colored transparent print film 112 is printed on the outer surface of the vapor-deposited film 12, and the second colored transparent print film 112 is formed on the outer surface of the second colored transparent print film 112.
