AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

Also, openings for lighting are often visible from the outside, thereby reducing the aesthetics of the motor vehicle
The use of often very long light guides requires more powerful illuminators to compensate for the attenuation caused by the light guides, resulting in higher energy consumption

Embodiment Construction

[0021] refer to figure 1 and 2 , it can be seen that the handle according to the first embodiment of the invention comprises in a known manner a frame 1 adapted to be fixed behind the outer surface of, for example, a door 2 of a motor vehicle. The frame 1 is provided with a cross pin 3 as a fulcrum about which a shaped extension 4 of a rod 5 is rotatable, the rod being adapted to be pulled outwards in the direction of the arrow 6 to open the door 2 . The lever 5 thus rotates about an axis substantially parallel to the axis of rotation of the door 2 . The other end of the rod 5 is provided with an appendage 7 protruding into the frame 1 for mechanical connection to an unlocking mechanism (not shown in the drawings) of the door 2 so that the door can be opened by pulling the rod 5 . The door 2 and / or the rod 5 are shaped to obtain a recess 8 and / or 9 respectively provided between the frame 1 and the rod 5 for the user's hand which has to pull the rod 5 .

Abstract

Handle comprising a lever (5) which can rotate with respect to a frame (1) to be fixed to the door (2) of a vehicle, which frame (1) is provided with a lighting device (10; 30; 40) for emitting lightoutside the door (2), which lighting device (10; 30; 40) is provided with an outer portion (10a) which is housed at least partially in a seat (11) made in the lever (5).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to handles for doors and the like, and in particular to a handle with a lever, which can be used to unlock and simultaneously open a motor vehicle door, and which is provided with means for illuminating the space around the handle. Background technique [0002] DE 10039685 discloses a handle provided with a lever, in which a lighting device is arranged, but the electrical connection for powering said device is relatively complicated, since the lever is movable and must be strictly waterproof. [0003] The stem of the handle disclosed in DE 19809716 is provided with optical coupling means, arranged in the lower part of the stem, for spreading downward the light emitted by the lighting means arranged in the vehicle door. [0004] DE 19822733 discloses a handle with an eyelid-like lever, ie with a substantially horizontal axis of rotation, which conceals a lighting device arranged in the door. DE 19822733 also discloses a handle wit...
