이에 도시한 바와 같이, 본 발명에 의한 자동차의 엔진룸 조명 장치는 자동차의 차체(1) 전방에 설치된 헤드 램프(3)를 이용하여 엔진룸의 조명을 실시하도록 구성한 것이다.As shown in the drawing, the engine room lighting apparatus for a vehicle according to the present invention is configured to illuminate the engine room using the headlamp 3 installed in front of the vehicle body 1 of the vehicle.
특히 본 발명의 일실시예에서는 도 1에 도시한 바와 같이, 자동차(1)의 후드(2)의 전방 양측에 헤드 램프(3)를 고정설치하여 후드(2)가 개방된 상태에서 엔진룸의 조명을 실시하도록 구성한다.In particular, in one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in Figure 1, the head lamp (3) is fixed to the front both sides of the hood (2) of the vehicle (1) of the engine room in the hood 2 is opened Configure to illuminate.
본 발명이 적용되는 헤드 램프(3)는 도 2에 도시한 바와 같이, 하우징(6)의 중앙에 설치된 램프(4)와, 램프(4)를 중심으로 후방에 설치된 반사경(5) 등으로 구성되어 있으며, 반사경(5)에는 일부 분리되어 회전반사경(12)을 형성하고, 회전반사경(12)이 회전시 램프(4)에서 발산되는 빛을 엔진룸쪽으로 통과시킬 수 있도록 하우징(6)에서 회전반사경(12)이 회전된 상태와 마주보는 부위에는 투명창(14)이 설치되어 있다. 미설명 부호 7은 커넥터이다.As shown in FIG. 2, the headlamp 3 to which the present invention is applied includes a lamp 4 installed at the center of the housing 6, a reflector 5 installed at the rear of the lamp 4, and the like. The reflecting mirror 5 is partially separated to form a rotating reflecting mirror 12, and the rotating reflecting mirror 12 rotates in the housing 6 so that the light emitted from the lamp 4 passes through the engine room toward the engine room when the rotating reflecting mirror 12 is rotated. The transparent window 14 is installed at a portion facing the rotated state of the reflector 12. Reference numeral 7 is a connector.
회전반사경(12)을 회전시키기 위한 회전수단(20)으로는 회전반사경(12)의 후면 중앙에 일단이 고정되어 회전반사경(12)을 지지하는 지지대(22)와, 지지대(22)의 타단에는 상단부가 회전가능하게 결합되는 손잡이부(28)가 형성된 핸들(24)이 구비되어 있고, 핸들(24)의 하단부는 하우징(6)의 외측으로 돌출되도록 설치되어 있다. 또한, 지지대(22)의 중간부에는 핸들(24)의 이동시 지지대(22)가 연동되어 회전되는 상태에서 회전중심이 되는 회전축(26)이 설치되어 있다.The rotating means 20 for rotating the rotating reflector 12 is fixed to the rear center of the rear mirror 12, the support 22 for supporting the rotating reflector 12, and the other end of the support 22 The handle 24 is provided with a handle portion 28 is rotatably coupled to the upper end, the lower end of the handle 24 is provided to protrude out of the housing (6). In addition, the intermediate portion of the support 22 is provided with a rotating shaft 26 which becomes the center of rotation in a state in which the support 22 is rotated in conjunction with the movement of the handle 24.
이와 같이 구성되는 본 발명에 의한 자동차의 엔진룸 조명 장치의 동작을 설명한다.The operation of the engine room lighting apparatus for a vehicle according to the present invention configured as described above will be described.
일반적인 자동차의 주행시 헤드 램프 본래의 전방 조명을 실시하는 경우에는 도 3에 도시한 바와 같이, 헤드 램프(3)의 반사경(5)에서 회전반사경(12)은 본래의 위치에서 이탈되지 않고 반사경(5)과 동일 표면상에서 반사경(5)의 일부가 되어 고정된 상태를 유지하게 된다. 이때, 램프(4)에서 발산되는 빛은 반사경(5)의 표면에서 반사되어 렌즈커버(8)를 통과하여 헤드 램프(3)의 전방으로 조사된다. When the headlamp original front lighting is performed during driving of a general vehicle, as shown in FIG. 3, the rotation reflector 12 is not detached from its original position without reflecting the mirror 5. It becomes part of the reflecting mirror 5 on the same surface as) and maintains a fixed state. At this time, the light emitted from the lamp 4 is reflected on the surface of the reflector 5 and passes through the lens cover 8 to be irradiated to the front of the head lamp 3.
그리고 자동차의 주행중 엔진에 이상이 발생되어 엔진룸을 정비하려고 하면, 후드(2)를 개방시킨 후에, 도 4에 도시한 바와 같이, 핸들(24)의 손잡이부(28)를 파지한 상태에서 핸들(24)을 상측으로 밀어주면 핸들(24)의 상단과 회전가능하게 결합되어 있는 지지대(22)가 회전축(26)을 중심으로 반시계 방향으로 회전되므로, 지지대(22)에 의해 고정지지되어 있는 회전반사경(12)도 회전축(26)을 중심으로 반시계 방향으로 회전된다. 회전반사경(12)이 회전된 각도만큼 램프(4)에서 발산되는 빛의 일부가 회전반사경(12)에 반사되어 하우징(6)에 설치된 투명창(14)을 통해서 헤드 램프(3)의 후방으로 조사됨으로써 도 1에서와 같이, 엔진룸 내부의 조명이 실시되는 것이다.If the engine is in trouble while the vehicle is running, and the engine room is to be maintained, the hood 2 is opened, and as shown in FIG. 4, the steering wheel 28 of the handle 24 is held in a state of being gripped. When the upper side of the handle 24 is pushed upward, the support 22 which is rotatably coupled to the upper end of the handle 24 is rotated counterclockwise around the rotation axis 26, and thus is fixedly supported by the support 22. The rotary reflector 12 is also rotated counterclockwise about the rotation axis 26. A portion of the light emitted from the lamp 4 by the angle at which the rotating reflector 12 is rotated is reflected by the rotating reflector 12 to the rear of the head lamp 3 through the transparent window 14 installed in the housing 6. By irradiation, illumination inside the engine room is performed as in FIG.
엔진룸의 정비작업이 완료된 후에는 핸들(24)의 손잡이부(28)를 잡아당기면, 지지대(22)가 회전축(26)을 중심으로 시계방향으로 회전되므로 동일하게 회전반사경(12)도 시계방향으로 회전되어 반사경(5)에서 위치하고 있던 본래의 자리로 복귀되어 후드(2)를 닫은 상태에서 헤드 램프(3)는 전방조명을 실시하게 된다.After the maintenance work of the engine room is completed, when the handle portion 28 of the handle 24 is pulled out, the support 22 is rotated clockwise about the rotation axis 26 so that the rotation reflector 12 is also clockwise. Rotates to return to the original position located in the reflector 5, and the head lamp 3 performs forward illumination while the hood 2 is closed.
상술한 실시예에서는 회전반사경(12)을 작동시키기 위한 회전수단(20)을 수동으로 작동하기 위한 구성이 개시되어 있으나, 운전석에서 자동으로 작동하기 위한 수단에 관하여도 본 발명의 기술사상의 범위 내에 포함됨은 물론이다.Although the above-described embodiment discloses a configuration for manually operating the rotating means 20 for operating the rotating reflector 12, the means for automatically operating in the driver's seat also falls within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention. Of course included.
이상에서 설명한 바와 같이, 본 발명에 의한 자동차의 엔진룸 조명 장치는 기존에 구비되어 있는 헤드 램프를 이용하여 엔진룸의 조명을 실시할 수 있어 별도의 조명 장비를 구비하지 않게 됨으로써 추가적인 공정 및 비용을 배제할 수 있어 제조공정이 간단해지고 제조비용을 절감할 수 있는 효과가 있다. 특히 별도의 조명 램프를 사용하는 것보다 헤드 램프의 빛을 이용하기 때문에 조명효과가 현저하게 향상되는 효과가 있다.As described above, the engine room lighting apparatus of the vehicle according to the present invention can perform the lighting of the engine room by using a head lamp provided in the existing, thereby eliminating additional lighting equipment, thereby reducing the additional process and cost. Since it can be excluded, the manufacturing process is simplified and the manufacturing cost can be reduced. In particular, since the light of the head lamp is used rather than using a separate lighting lamp, the lighting effect is remarkably improved.
또한, 별도의 엔진룸 조명 장치가 배제됨으로써 부품이 줄어들어 차량의 경량화에 기여하는 이점이 있다.In addition, since the separate engine room lighting device is excluded, parts are reduced, which contributes to the weight reduction of the vehicle.
