Abstract

Die Erfindung umfasst eine beleuchtbare Instrumententafelanzeigeeinheit eines Kraftfahrzeugs, die eine erste Platte umfasst, die eine Dicke und, einander entgegengesetzt, eine erste und eine zweite Fläche hat. Bereiche der Platte bilden einen äußeren Umfangsrand und einen einen Mittenbereich definierenden inneren Umfangsrand. Markierungen sind in die Platte eingeformt und zum Auffangen von Umgebungs- und zugeführtem Licht ausgelegt. Eine Lichtquelle ist innerhalb des Mittenbereichs angeordnet. Eine Abstützung ist mit der Platte verbunden, um die Platte relativ zur Instrumententafel zu halten, wobei die Lichtquelle zur Beleuchtung der Markierungen durch Lichtübertragung durch den inneren Umfangsrand hindurch innerhalb der Dicke der Planscheibe ausgelegt ist.
