Embodiment Construction

[0028] The invention will be explained below with the aid of an embodiment in which the locked state of a motor vehicle door is indicated by means of a symbol in the side pane. The optical technology used for this is integrated in the inner panel of the motor vehicle door.

[0029] figure 1 A cross-sectional view of the upper portion of the inner panel of the door is shown. In this case, the inner panel is designated with the reference numeral 2 and has a lighting device 1 arranged inside it. Furthermore, a side pane 3 of the motor vehicle can be seen, which is arranged between the inner panel 2 and the outer body 4 of the motor vehicle. The side pane has an inner face 301 facing the motor vehicle interior and an outer face 302 facing the outside of the motor vehicle and thus the vehicle exterior. exist figure 1 In an embodiment of the present invention, the lighting device 1 comprises in the lower part a light source in the form of an RGB (red-green-blue) light-emitting d...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device for outputting visual information in a motor vehicle, comprising a lighting device (1) which is provided for arrangement in the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle and has one or more light sources (5) for generating light (L) and a disc (3) which bounds the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle and has an inner face (301) directed towards the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle and an outer face (302) directed towards the outside of the motor vehicle. A symbol (9), which has a structure for scattering light at least into the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle, is formed on the disc (3), wherein the lighting device (1) and the symbol (9) are arranged with respect to one another in such a way that the light (L) of the lighting device (1) is incident on the symbol (9) during the operation of said lighting device (1), said light at least partially originating from the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle and passing via the inner face (301) of the disc (3), which symbol (9) lights up owing to the scattering of light on its structure.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for outputting optical information on a motor vehicle and to a corresponding motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] It is known from the prior art to display the state of the motor vehicle, such as the locked or unlocked state, via the position of the mechanical door knob head or possibly also via small dot-shaped light-emitting diodes in the vehicle interior. Such visual representations are often only recognizable with difficulty. In particular, the position of the mechanical door knob head is invisible in the dark. [0003] Devices for generating optical information in vehicle windows are described in documents DE 10 2011 014 263 A1 and DE 10 2009 010 623 A1. In this case, light is introduced into the vehicle window along the edge of the vehicle window by means of a corresponding lighting device. Several light sources arranged on the edge of the glass pane are used for displaying the information. Contents ...
