Abstract

Eine LED-Leuchte (1) für Kraftfahrzeuge, weist als Lichtquelle mindestens eine Leuchtdiode (2a) auf, für die eine Schutzschaltung vorgesehen ist. Diese hat wenigstens einen Temperaturfühler (11) zur Messung der Umgebungstemperatur und mindestens ein Schaltmittel zum Abschalten der Leuchdiode(n) (2a) beim Überschreiten eines vorgegebenen Temperaturschwellwertes.

Figure 00000001
An LED light (1) for motor vehicles has at least one light-emitting diode (2a) as a light source, for which a protective circuit is provided. This has at least one temperature sensor (11) for measuring the ambient temperature and at least one switching means for switching off the light-emitting diode (s) (2a) when a predetermined temperature threshold value is exceeded.
