Embodiment Construction

[0041] First refer to figure 1 . The figure shows a conventional snap-in connection in a vehicle light source for daytime driving lighting. A vehicle light source generally includes a housing 21 , a carrying frame 22 for optically related components (not shown) and a cover plate (not shown). Furthermore, it should be understood by any person skilled in the art that each vehicle light source also has other components which enable it to function properly. Within the framework of the present invention, however, no reference is made to these other components, since they are not essential for the present invention.

[0042] Such as figure 1 As shown, in a conventional vehicle light source, the housing is connected to the carrier frame by means of a snap-in connection. In this case, both the housing 21 and the carrier frame 22 must each have detent lugs 20 a , 20 b which, when connected, engage into one another and are detented in a predetermined position.

[0043] This is just...

Abstract

The invention provides a method for producing a positive connection between a first component and a second component of a motor vehicle lighting device by means of a connecting element which is provided on the side of the second component, wherein the first component has an attachment region on the outer side which is designed as a recess provided as a recess remote from the inner side (4b) and has the following steps: a) arranging the second component at an inner side opening region of the through hole of the first component; b) passing the connecting element through the through hole of the recess by means of an end part of the connecting element by applying the end part to the second component.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for producing a form-fitting connection between a first component and a second component of a motor vehicle lighting system by means of a connecting element arranged on the second component, wherein the first component is arranged as the second component and has an outer side and an inner side, wherein the first member has a fastening area at the outer side, which is configured as a groove that continues as a through hole opened on the inner side, wherein the through hole has a shoulder area. [0002] Furthermore, the invention relates to a component combination having a form-fitting connection produced according to the method described above. [0003] Furthermore, the invention relates to a lighting system for a motor vehicle with such a combination of components. Background technique [0004] Many automotive lighting components are currently made of plastic. To connect these components, a snap-in connection is oft...
