Description:FIELD OF THE INVENTION

The present disclosure relates to an illumination device. Particularly, the present disclosure related to a logo illumination device for a vehicle. More particularly, the present disclosure related to the logo illumination device for the vehicle which is compact in size, cost effective, provides bright illumination and minimizes light leakage.

BACKGROUND

The information in this section merely provides background information related to the present disclosure and may not constitute prior art(s) for the present disclosure.

Automotive lights are signalling/illuminating devices employed in an automobile to provide a visual of the vehicle’s presence on the road. A type of automotive light is a logo badge that is employed to illuminate a logo, such as a manufacturer or model name, on the vehicle. The logo badge generally includes a housing, a printed circuit board (PCB) with light-emitting diodes (LEDs) mounted thereon, a logo pattern disc, and a lens installed over the logo pattern.

There are various limitations associated with the current type of logo badges. For instance, the logo badges are bulky owing to a greater number of sub-parts. Further, a greater number of parts also warrants better inventory management. Moreover, the current type of logo light unit is not efficient in outputting bright illumination of the logo pattern owing to optical losses within the housing and as a result, the logo badges have less aesthetic appeal. One way to mitigate this issue is to install powerful LEDs to offset the optical loss. However, the installation of powerful LEDs warrants a large-sized LED driver and heat sink that further makes the logo badges bulky. Moreover, increased size and bulkiness also warrant heavy-duty mounting provisions, such as heavy-duty fasteners that not only increase the overall weight of the logo badges but also affect inventory management. The increased size, large sized LEDs and bulkiness results in to expensive solutions.

Therefore, considering these drawbacks, a logo illumination device that reduces complexity, bulkiness and cost without compromising performance and enhances brightness, is therefore desirable.

The drawbacks/difficulties/disadvantages/limitations of the conventional techniques explained in the background section are just for exemplary purposes and the disclosure would never limit its scope only such limitations. A person skilled in the art would understand that this disclosure and below mentioned description may also solve other problems or overcome the other drawbacks/disadvantages of the conventional arts which are not explicitly captured above.

SUMMARY

This summary is provided to introduce a selection of concepts, in a simplified format, that are further described in the detailed description of the invention. This summary is neither intended to identify key or essential inventive concepts of the invention nor is it intended for determining the scope of the invention.

The present disclosure relates to a logo illumination device that includes a logo plate with an integrated lens and is designed for minimized light leakage.

In an embodiment, a logo illumination device is disclosed that includes a light source and a reflector. The reflector includes a plurality of curved members to reflect light from the light source. In addition, the logo illumination device includes a logo plate comprising a plurality of ribs, the logo plate defining a logo pattern adapted to transmit incident light from the light source, and the reflected light from the reflector. The plurality of ribs is adapted to align with the plurality of curved members such that the plurality of curved members and the plurality of ribs guide the light toward the logo pattern.

In another embodiment, a vehicle is disclosed that includes a logo illumination device. The logo illumination device includes a light source and a reflector. The reflector includes a plurality of curved members to reflect light from the light source. In addition, the logo illumination device includes a logo plate comprising a plurality of ribs, the logo plate defining a logo pattern adapted to transmit incident light from the light source, and the reflected light from the reflector. The plurality of ribs is adapted to align with the plurality of curved members such that the plurality of curved members and the plurality of ribs guide the light toward the logo pattern.

In yet another embodiment, the plurality of curved members has an inverted V-shaped profile, wherein a top side of the inverted V-shaped profile aligns with a profile of the plurality of ribs of the logo plate.

According to the present disclosure, the logo plate is a single unit that includes the lens and the diffuser thereby reducing a number of parts that are employed in the logo illumination device. Further, the reflector increases the amount of light from the light source to the logo plate thereby rendering the logo plate brighter than conventional logo badges. In addition, the ribs, in combination with the reflector reduce the light leakage thereby further improving illumination.

For example, reference numerals starting with digit “1” are shown at least in Figure 1. Similarly, reference numerals starting with digit “2” are shown at least in Figure 2.

Figures 1 to 3 exemplarily show a logo illumination device 100, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 exemplarily illustrates an exploded view of the logo illumination device 100 whereas Figure 2 exemplarily illustrates an assembled view of the logo illumination device 100. Further, Figure 3 exemplarily illustrates cross-section views taken along lines 1-1 and 2-2 in Figure 2. The logo illumination device 100 may be a part of a vehicle, such as a two-wheeler, a three-wheeler, or a four-wheeler, and may be employed to illuminate a logo formed on the logo illumination device 100. The logo illumination device 100, in one example, may be installed on a front side of the vehicle, such as the front fascia of the vehicle. Additionally, the logo illumination device 100 may be installed at a rear side of the vehicle, such as a rear bumper or a truck gate. Moreover, the logo illumination device 100 may be installed at a left hand side or a right hand side of the vehicle.

The logo illumination device 100 of the present disclosure is a compact device than conventional logo badges with similar configuration. The logo illumination device 100 is designed to have zero light leakage thereby achieving greater brightness by using small-sized light sources. The logo illumination device 100 may include but is not limited to, a housing 102, a Printed Circuit Board (PCB) 104, a reflector 106, and a logo plate 108, details of which will be provided in later paragraphs.

The housing 102 may define a base of the logo illumination device 100 and houses the aforementioned components of the logo illumination device 100. The housing 102 may include an internal volume that receives the PCB 104 and the reflector 106. The housing 102 may include a plurality of support structures 110 formed on a bottom surface of the housing 102. The support structure 110 may also allow the mounting of the PCB 104 thereon. For instance, the support structure 110 may include a plurality of holes 112 that are aligned with holes 114 and 116 on the PCB 104 and the reflector 106 respectively to receive fasteners and detachably attach the PCB 104 and the reflector 106 to the inner portion of the housing 102. The housing 102 may also include a connection port 118 that allows an electric power supply to the PCB 104. The connection port 118 may include a base 118-1 and a pair of terminals 118-2 extending downward from the housing 102. According to the present disclosure, the housing 102 does not hold a separate power driver for the PCB 104 that is otherwise needed to operate a high-power light source on the PCB 104 to compensate for the light leakage. As a result, the housing 102 may have a smaller inner volume owing to the compact size achievable with an integrated logo plate and the zero-light leakage.

The housing 102 may also include a plurality of peripheral flanges 120 that may receive flanges 122 of the logo plate 108 as shown in cross-section views 1-1 and 2-2 in Figure 3 to attach the housing 102 with the logo plate 108 through a snap-fit mechanism or ultrasonic welding or both. Referring back to Figures 1 and 2, the housing 102 may include a plurality of mounting brackets 124, each configured to receive a mounting fastener (not shown). In addition, the housing 102 may include a plurality of projections 148 formed on the periphery of the housing 102 and may be adapted to engage with snap locks 126 on the logo plate 108. The snap lock 126 may detachably couple the logo plate 108 to the housing 102 by the snap-fit mechanism. In another embodiment, the logo plate 108 may be coupled to the housing 102 by ultrasonic welding. Alternatively, the snap lock 126 also ensures that the logo plate 108 is correctly aligned relative to the housing 102 so that the logo plate 108 can be welded/glued to the housing 102 in a correct orientation. The snap lock mechanism and ultrasonic welding prevents any ingress of foreign particles.

In one example, the PCB 104 may be disposed in the housing 102, such that portions of the PCB 104 may be sandwiched between the housing 102 and the reflector 106. The PCB 104 may include a circuit board 138 and a light source 128 mounted on the circuit board 138. The light source 128, may be, in one example, a plurality of Light Emitted Diodes (LEDs). Further, the PCB 104 may include a driver (not visible) integrated into the circuit board 138 and may operate the plurality of LEDs in a predetermined sequence. The driver may be coupled to an energy storage unit of the vehicle through the connection port 118 to provide power to the logo illumination device 100. For instance, the driver is embedded into the circuit board 138, unlike the conventional means in which the driver is installed on the front or rear surface of the PCB 104. As a result, an overall thickness of the PCB 104 is less than the thickness of a conventional PCB with the driver. The PCB 104 may also include a cut-out 130 that may allow portions of the PCB 104 to extend around an alignment member 132 in the housing 102. Such a provision ensures that the PCB 104 is aligned correctly for the fasteners to secure the PCB 104 to the housing 102.

The reflector 106, in one example, may be installed over the PCB 104 and may be adapted to reflect the light emitted by the light source 128 towards the logo plate 108. The reflector 106 may include a bottom portion 134 that may include holes 116 which are aligned with the holes 114 and 112 when the logo illumination device 100 is assembled. The reflector 106 may also include a plurality of reflecting surfaces 136 that reflect the light from the light source 128. The plurality of reflecting surfaces 136 for reflecting the light may form a curved member 156. A detailed construction of the reflector 106 will be explained in the subsequent paragraphs.

In one example, the logo plate 108 may be disposed over the reflector 106. The logo plate 108 may be a single-piece moulded element that includes a top lens 140 and a diffuser 142. The diffuser 142 may be adapted to illuminate upon receipt of incident light from the light source 128 and the reflected light from the reflector 106. In the illustrated example, the diffuser 142 may define a logo pattern. In an exemplarily embodiment, the logo pattern is three curved arms going upwards as illustrated in Figure 1. Further, it may be noted that the logo pattern may include any design of logo which may be envisioned within the scope of the present disclosure. The logo plate 108 may include a plurality of ribs 144 that may extend downward from a rear surface 146 of the logo plate 108.

The ribs 144 may be adapted to work synergistically to prevent light leakage. Referring now to Figure 1 and 3, the plurality of curved members 156 may have an inverted V-shaped profile 158. Further, as shown in enhanced view ‘A’, the tip of the rib 144 is aligned with the top of the inverted V-shaped profile 158 of the plurality of curved members 156 and both of them have a negligible gap therebetween. Such an arrangement results in two advantages. First, the light leakage is prevented thereby enhancing the illumination, and second, the top end of the plurality of curved members 156 may act as a support of the rib 144. Therefore, light reflected by the plurality of curved member 156 ultimately reaches the logo plate 108.

Figure 4 exemplarily illustrates a sub-assembly 400 showing the interior of the logo illumination device 100, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The sub-assembly 400 represents a combination of the housing 102, the PCB 104, and the reflector 106. As seen clearly, the holes 112, 114, and 116 are aligned to receive fasteners 402. Further, the plurality of LEDs of the light source 128 are disposed on the PCB 104 in a predefined configuration. The predefined configuration may be in accordance with the logo pattern or the design of the logo. In the illustrated example, the plurality of LEDs may be arranged as separate three groups 404, 406, and 408 corresponding to the three arms of the logo pattern. Further, for different design of logos, the light sources may be arranged in corresponding to their logo pattern. Furthermore, the reflector 106 is designed, such that the the plurality of LEDs is received in a gap portion 160 of the reflector 106. The gap portions 160 are formed in between either one pair of the plurality of curved members 156 and another pair of plurality of curved member 156 or one pair of plurality of the curved member 156 and an inner periphery 162 of reflector 106. The plurality of curved members 156 separate the aforementioned groups. Further, the walls of the plurality of curved members 156 may reflect the light towards the logo plate 108. Moreover, each the plurality of curved member 156 may reflect the light from the light source 128 to the logo pattern in a predetermined sequence. A detailed construction of the reflector 106 is explained with respect to Figures 5 to 8.

Figures 5 to 8 exemplarily illustrate various views of the reflector 106, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Specifically, Figure 5 exemplarily illustrates a top view of the reflector 106 of the logo illumination device 100 whereas Figure 6 exemplarily illustrates a perspective view of the reflector 106 of the logo illumination device 100. Further, Figure 7 exemplarily illustrates a side view of the reflector 106 whereas Figure 8 exemplarily illustrates cross-section views taken along lines 3-3 and 4-4 in Figure 6.

The reflector 106 may include a pair of bottom portions 134 such that each bottom portion 134 may include the hole 116. Further, the reflector 106 may include an outer portion 150 that extends from the pair of bottom portions 134. The outer portion 150 of the reflector 106 may have a frustoconical shape, such a width ‘Wf’ of the reflector 106 at the front end thereof may be greater than a width ‘Wr’ of the reflector 106 at the rear end thereof. The outer portion 150 may also include a pair of extensions 152 that are diametrically opposite to each other and may be configured to the alignment member 132 as shown in Figure 4. In the illustrated example, the inner periphery 162 is an inner surface of the outer portion 150. The inner periphery 162 may reflect the light from the light source 128.

Further, adjacent curved members 156 may form the inverted V-shaped profile 158 that gets aligned with the tip of the rib 144. In one example, the curved members 156 may be formed as a single piece metallic body that is bent to form the inverted V-shaped profile 158. Further, each V-shaped profile 158 may include a first end 158-1 and a second end 158-2 both connected to the inner periphery 162 of the reflector 106 which is defined by the inner surface of the outer portion 150. In another embodiment, each V-shaped profile 158 may include a first end 158-1 and a second end 158-2 both may not be connected to the inner periphery 162 of the reflector 106 which is defined by the inner surface of the outer portion 150. Further, each of reflecting surfaces 136 from the plurality of reflecting surfaces 136 of the curved member 156 may have a parabolic profile.

Figures 9 and 10 exemplarily illustrate different views of the logo plate 108, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Specifically, Figure 9 exemplarily illustrates a top view and a bottom view of the logo plate 108 of the logo illumination device 100 whereas Figure 10 exemplarily illustrates cross section views taken along lines 5-5 and 6-6 in Figure 9. The logo plate 108 may be made of the top lens 140 and the diffuser 142. The logo plate 108 may include a front surface 154 includes the top lens 140 and the diffuser 142 that may face outwardly and the rear surface 146 opposite to the front surface 154 and includes the ribs 144. As shown in Figure 9, the ribs 144 may also have a predefined pattern that may correspond to the shape of the curved members 156 thereby ensuring that the ribs 144 are always proximate to the V-shaped profile 158 of the curved members 156 to prevent light leakage.

Referring to Figure 10, the top lens 140 may restrict transmission of the light thereby ensuring that the light illuminating the diffuser 142 and the illumination is traveling outwardly from the front surface 154. In one example, the top lens 140 and the diffuser 142 are manufactured as a single unit. As a result, the number of parts needed to manufacture the logo illumination device 100 is comparatively lesser than the number of parts needed to manufacture conventional logo badges. In one example, the top lens 140 and the diffuser 142 may be molded together by a 2K molding process. Further, the molding is performed in such a way that the diffuser 142 integrates with the top lens 140 while ensuring the respective optical capabilities of the top lens 140 and the diffuser 142. In one example, the top lens 140 may be made of a polycarbonate or similar material and the diffuser 142 may be made of a translucent material.

According to the present disclosure, the reflector 106 with a predefined configuration maximizes the reflected light towards the logo plate 108. In addition, the reflector 106 may also act as a heat sink for the LEDs. Moreover, the arrangement of the LEDs on the circuit board 138 minimizes stray light. Furthermore, the rib 144 and the curved members 136 ensure zero leakage and bright illumination of the logo pattern.

Technical advantages of the present disclosure:
1. Compact logo badge illumination device 100
2. Reduction in greater number of sub-parts due to arranged array of light sources and integrated LED driver
3. Elimination of ingress of foreign particle due to the snap lock mechanism and ultrasonic welding for locking the logo plate 108 and the housing 102
4. Brighter illumination and no leakage of light due to alignment of the plurality of rib 144 of the logo plate 108 and the curved members 156 of the reflector 106.
