Embodiment Construction

[0029] figure 1 The device 1 is only shown by way of example, and the device 1 includes a handle housing 3 fixed at a door lining 2 of a motor vehicle not shown further, and a lighting device 5 with a light source 4.

[0030] In addition to the light source 4 formed by LEDs, the lighting device 5 here includes a light guide 6 with a light exit surface 7 for the downward orientation of light. The light coupled into the light guide 6 before decoupling hits a reflecting element 8 arranged on the end side obliquely with respect to the cross-sectional plane of the light guide 6, which reflecting element is simultaneously used for beam shaping of the exiting light beam. In particular, this significantly reduces the undesired scattering of light in the region of the free path 9 between the light exit surface 7 and the handle housing 3. The handle housing 3, which is recessed to accommodate the swingable operating element 10, has a transmissive area 11 for optical coupling, which is impl...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device (1) assigned to an interior door moulding (2) of a motor vehicle, comprising a handle shell (3) fixed on an interior door moulding (2), and an illuminating means (5), and also a mounting method therefor. The illuminating means (5) here comprises, in addition to the light source (4), an optical waveguide (6) with a directed light outlet surface (7) for the light. The light coupled into the optical waveguide (6), before being decoupled, impinges against a reflection element (8) which is arranged on the end side at an inclination in relation to the cross-sectional plane of the optical waveguide (6) and serves at the same time for shaping the emerging light beam. In particular, an undesirable scattering of the light in the region of the free distance (9) between the light outlet surface (7) and the handle shell (3) is thereby substantially reduced. The concave handle shell (3) which is intended for receiving a pivotable actuating element (10) has, for the coupling-in of light, a transmissive region (11), the light outlet surface (13) of which is designed as a diffusion lens. According to the invention, a separation of functions is achieved, making it possible, for the first time, to mount the illumination means (5) and the handle shell (3) as separate functional units and independently of each other.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a device associated with the door lining (Türinnenverkleidung) of a motor vehicle, the device having: a handle shell recessed in the installed state, the handle shell having at least one transmissiv area; and The lighting device with a light source of the device is used for coupling light into the transmissive area. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for assembling a device on a door lining of a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Such a device for illuminating the area of ​​the handle shell in the door lining that includes the door inner manipulator and the assembly method suitable for the device have been frequently used in practice and therefore belong to the present due to obvious prior use. There is technology. [0003] The inner door operator includes an inner operator element defined as a closing system for unlocking the door, which inner operator element is usually implemented as a swing lever. ...
