Definitions

  • Instrument clusters for vehicles are typically located on a vehicle dashboard and may include a speedometer, tachometer, engine condition indicator, ABS braking indicator, and other devices for monitoring vehicle operating conditions.
  • the instrument cluster includes display marks that may have lighting to illuminate each mark.
  • the ABS braking mark may be illuminated when the vehicle is undergoing ABS braking.
  • Such lighting is provided by individual lamps that illuminate each indicator of the dashboard.
  • individual lamps take up significant space and require a high voltage circuit to supply current to each of the lamps. The high voltage further requires insulation to protect against shock, thereby increasing the cost and size of the instrument cluster.
  • optical light guides to direct illumination to each of the display marks of the instrument cluster.
  • each mark requires its own light guide and light source so that each individual mark may be separately illuminated.
  • a typical instrument cluster has many separate indicators that require such lighting.
  • Each light guide associated with each indicator is painstakingly assembled into the cluster one at a time. Consequently, a great deal of time and effort is required to individually piece the light guides into the instrument cluster.
  • dial applique is a film of plastic having instrument display marks, such as the hash marks of a speedometer gauge, the numbers for the gauge, vehicle telltales, and other marks. Most of the dial applique is opaque except for the illuminated portions.
  • a light guide used with the dial applique, such as the light guide for the speedometer gauge, may illuminate large portions of the dial applique rather than just the marks. Accordingly, existing instrument displays waste lighting energy.
  • An example instrument display includes a light source that selectively emits light and a light guide that receives the light.
  • One or more optical coating layers are disposed on the light guide.
  • the light guide has a first index of refraction, and the optical coating layer or layers have a second index of refraction that is greater than the first index of refraction of the light guide.
  • the optical coating layer or layers reduce glare from ambient light and increase the light transmitting performance of the light guide.
  • An example method includes depositing one or more optical coating layers on a light guide.
  • the light guide has a first index of refraction and the optical coating layer or layers have a second index of refraction that is greater than the first index of refraction of the light guide.
  • Another example instrument display includes a light source that selectively emits light and a light guide that receives the light.
  • a plurality of opaque optical coating layers are disposed on the light guide to prevent light loss.
  • the opaque optical coating layers include a white paint, a black paint, and a gray paint.

  • Figure 2 is a schematic view of an example portion of a light guide and optical coating layer within the instrument display.
  • Figure 3 is a schematic view of an example portion of a light guide and plurality of optical coating layers within the instrument display.
  • Figure 4 is a schematic view of an example portion of a light guide and opaque optical coating layers within the instrument display.
  • Figure 1 illustrates an exploded view of an example instrument display 10, such as an instrument cluster for a motor vehicle.
  • a back cover 12 provides support for movements 14 associated with pointers 16.
  • a control unit 18, here a printed circuit board, has clusters of light emitting diodes 20, which are controlled by the control unit 18 to respond to various vehicle conditions in a known manner.
  • Light emitting diodes 20 protrude through light housing 22 and provide light to light guides 24. Light from light emitting diodes 20 illuminates light guides 24.
  • a liquid crystal display 25 may also be associated with the instrument display 10 and be illuminated by one of the light guides 24.
  • a dial applique 27 may be used in cooperation with the light guides 24 to provide desired graphics.
  • the light guides 24 each have one or more instrument display marks 30, such as fuel level indicator, engine light indicator, or other known vehicle display marks. Each light guide 24 may be individually illuminated so that the desired instrument display marks 30 are illuminated upon the appropriate vehicle condition.
  • Figure 2 shows a simplified schematic cross-sectional view of a portion of one of the light guides 24 that receives light from one of the light emitting diodes 20 to illuminate one of the instrument display marks 30.
  • the light is transmitted through the light guide 24, which is made of known transparent or translucent material having an index of refraction.
  • the index of refraction refers to a ratio of the speed of light in a vacuum to the speed of light in a substance.
  • the light guide 24 includes a front surface 32a that faces in a direction toward the front lens 28 and a rear surface 32b that faces in a direction away from the front lens 28.

  • the optical coating layer 42 is painted or vapor deposited onto the light guide 24 in a known manner.

Abstract

La présente invention a trait à un affichage d'instruments comportant une source lumineuse qui assure l'émission sélective de la lumière et un guide de lumière qui reçoit la lumière. Une ou des couches de revêtement optique sont disposées sur le guide de lumière. Le guide de lumière présente un premier indice de réfraction, et la/les couche(s) présente(nt) un deuxième indice de réfraction qui est supérieur au premier indice de réfraction du guide de lumière. La couche de revêtement optique réduit l'éblouissement provenant de la lumière ambiante et accroît la capacité de transmission de lumière du guide de lumière.
