If the vehicle has an accident resulting in loss of electric power, the safety illuminators enable the controls to be reached. ADVANTAGE - Increased safety; automatic action. Economical, self-sufficient lights.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein zur Personenbeförderung eingerichte­ tes Fahrzeug, insbesondere Kraftfahrzeug.The invention relates to a set up for the transportation of people tes vehicle, in particular motor vehicle.

In derartigen Fahrzeugen wird für Fahrzeuginsassen die Bedienung von Schließeinrichtungen, die sich beispielsweise in Sicher­ heitsgurteinrichtungen oder in Türen befinden, häufig dadurch erschwert, daß diese Schließeinrichtungen, insbesondere deren Betätigungsglieder wie Drucktasten und Griffklinken, bei unter­ schiedlichen Fahrzeugtypen jeweils an verschiedenen Stellen räumlich angeordnet sind. Diese Probleme werden bei schlechten Lichtverhältnissen weiter verschärft. Gerade in Gefahrensituatio­ nen, beispielsweise nach einem Unfall, kann der schnelle und gezielte Griff zur Öffnung der Schließeinrichtung durch den Fahrzeuginsassen oder aber durch Unfallrettungspersonal lebens­ rettend sein.In such vehicles, operation is made for vehicle occupants of locking devices, for example, in security seat belt devices or in doors, often as a result complicates that these locking devices, especially their Actuators such as push buttons and handle pawls, under different vehicle types in different places are spatially arranged. These problems are bad Lighting conditions further tightened. Especially in dangerous situations NEN, for example after an accident, the fast and targeted handle for opening the locking device through the Vehicle occupants or by accident rescue personnel to be saving.

Vor diesem Hintergrund liegt der Erfindung die Aufgabe zugrunde, das Auffinden derartiger Bedienelemente deutlich zu erleichtern.Against this background, the invention is based on the object to make it easier to find such controls.

Diese Aufgabe wird gelöst durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1. Die Unteransprüche enthalten zweckmäßige Weiterbildungen.This object is achieved by the features of the patent claim 1. The sub-claims contain appropriate further training.

Der besondere Vorteil der Erfindung ist darin zu sehen, daß durch die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene autarke Lichtquelle die Schließeinrichtungen auch dann erkennbar sind, wenn nach einem Fahrzeugunfall das elektrische Bordnetz komplett ausge­ fallen ist, so daß beispielsweise auch die Innenraumbeleuch­ tung außer Funktion ist. Da aus den in der Beschreibungseinlei­ tung genannten Gründen eine Beleuchtung der Schließeinrichtun­ gen auch bei Tageslicht sinnvoll sein kann, ist gemäß einer besonders vorteilhaften Weiterbildung der Erfindung die an sich autarke Lichtquelle während des normalen Fahrzeugbetriebs ständig an das elektrische Bordnetz angeschlossen. Dabei lädt das elektrische Bordnetz einen der Lichtquelle zugeordneten Energiespeicher permanent oder periodisch auf, so daß nach einem Unfall - bzw. störungsbedingten Ausfall des elektrischen Bordnetzes - die Lichtquelle selbsttätig aus dem Energiespeicher über eine vorgegebene Zeitspanne hinweg mit elektrischer Energie versorgt wird.The particular advantage of the invention is that by the self-sufficient light source provided according to the invention  the locking devices are recognizable even if after the vehicle electrical system is completely switched off in the event of a vehicle accident is falling, so that for example the interior lighting tion is out of function. Because from the in the descriptive introduction reasons mentioned lighting of the locking device conditions can also be useful in daylight, according to one particularly advantageous development of the invention self-sufficient light source during normal vehicle operation permanently connected to the electrical system. It loads the electrical system is assigned to the light source Energy storage permanently or periodically, so that after an accident - or failure-related failure of the electrical Vehicle electrical system - the light source automatically from the energy storage over a predetermined period of time with electrical energy is supplied.

Ein vorteilhaftes Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist schema­ tisch in der Zeichnung dargestellt. Man erkennt dort die Innen­ ansicht einer Längsseite eines hier insgesamt mit 1 bezeichneten Fahrzeuges, das hier im wesentlichen eine Vordertür 2 und eine Hintertür 3 aufweist. Diese Türen weisen je eine Schließeinrich­ tung auf, deren wesentliche Elemente Griffmulden 4, 5 sowie als Betätigungsglieder fungierende Griffklinken 6, 7 und an sich bekannte Türverriegelungsstifte 6a, 7a sind. Im Gegensatz zum Türverriegelungsstift 7a befindet sich der Türverriegelungs­ stift 6a in einer Stellung, in der er das nicht dargestellte Türschloß der Vordertür 2 verriegelt. Zu einer nicht weiter dargestellten Rückhaltevorrichtung, beispielsweise eine Zwei­ punkt- oder Dreipunkt-Sicherheitsgurtanordnung, gehören Sicher­ heitsgurtschlösser 8, 9 deren Schloßgehäuse 10, 11 als Betä­ tigungsglieder Drucktasten 12, 13 aufweisen. Die Drucktaste 12 befindet sich am oberen Ende des Schloßgehäuses 10 und er­ möglicht durch Verschiebung in Pfeilrichtung a eine Öffnung des Gurtschlosses 8. Die Drucktaste 13 hingegen ist an einer Längsseite des Gurtschlosses 9 angeordnet und durch eine in die Zeichnungsebene hineingerichtete Druckbewegung zur Öffnung des Gurtschlosses 9 betätigbar. Die beleuchteten bzw. selbst­ leuchtenden Bauteile sind in der Zeichnung schraffiert darge­ stellt. An advantageous embodiment of the invention is shown schematically in the drawing. One can see there the inside view of a long side of a vehicle, here generally designated 1 , which here essentially has a front door 2 and a rear door 3 . These doors each have a closing device, the essential elements of which are recessed grips 4 , 5 and handle pawls 6 , 7 , which act as actuators, and known door locking pins 6 a, 7 a. In contrast to the door locking pin 7 a, the door locking pin 6 a is in a position in which it locks the door lock, not shown, of the front door 2 . To a retaining device, not shown, for example a two-point or three-point seat belt arrangement, include safety belt buckles 8 , 9 whose lock housing 10 , 11 as actuating members push buttons 12 , 13 . The push button 12 is located at the upper end of the lock housing 10 and it enables an opening of the belt buckle 8 by displacement in the direction of arrow a. The pushbutton 13, on the other hand, is arranged on a long side of the buckle 9 and can be actuated by a pushing movement into the plane of the drawing to open the buckle 9 . The illuminated or self-illuminating components are hatched in the drawing Darge represents.

So sind beispielsweise die Griffklinke 7 und die Türverriegelungs­ stifte 6a, 7a mit einem fluoreszierenden oder phosphoreszierenden Material versehen, das bei Dunkelheit ein kaltes, aber dennoch deutlich wahrnehmbares Licht aussendet. Ein solches selbst­ leuchtendes Material kann beispielsweise durch Farbanstrich oder Selbstklebefolien auf die Griffklinke 7 aufgebracht werden. Die letztgenannte Art der Anbringung eignet sich besonders gut für eine nachträgliche Anbringung an bereits im Verkehr befindlichen Fahrzeugen. Allgemein ist darauf zu achten, daß das selbstleuchtende Material im Bereich der Schließeinrichtungen nur dort eingesetzt wird, wo durch Verschmutzung oder erhöhten mechanischen Abrieb auf lange Sicht gesehen keine Beeinträch­ tigung der Leuchtwirkung zu erwarten ist. Dies kann beispiels­ weise an Umrandungen von Griffmulden, wie dies in der Zeichnung am Beispiel der Fahrzeugtür 2 gezeigt ist, der Fall sein.For example, the handle 7 and the door locking pins 6 a, 7 a are provided with a fluorescent or phosphorescent material that emits a cold, but still clearly perceptible light in the dark. Such a self-luminous material can be applied to the handle pawl 7 , for example, by painting or self-adhesive films. The latter type of attachment is particularly well suited for retrofitting to vehicles that are already in traffic. In general, it should be ensured that the self-illuminating material is only used in the area of the locking devices where pollution or increased mechanical abrasion means that the lighting effect is not to be expected in the long term. This can be the case, for example, on borders of recessed grips, as shown in the drawing using the example of the vehicle door 2 .

Für sämtliche schraffiert dargestellte Bauteile können aber auch Materialien gewählt werden, wie sie aus dem Hausgebrauch für Lichtschalter allgemein bekannt sind. Auf diese Weise erhält man Bauelemente, die aus spritzfähigen Kunststoff kostengünstig gefertigt und darüber hinaus sehr leicht gereinigt werden können, ohne daß ein Verlust an Leuchtkraft zu befürchten ist. Aus einem solchen Werkstoff ist beispielsweise das Schloßgehäuse 10 gehalten. In diesem Falle muß die Drucktaste 12 nicht notwen­ digerweise aus einem selbstleuchtenden Material gehalten sein. Die Drucktaste 13 kann ebenfalls aus einem mit selbstleuchtenden Werkstoffen versetzten Material bestehen.For all components shown hatched, materials can also be selected, as are generally known from household use for light switches. In this way, components are obtained which can be manufactured inexpensively from injection-molded plastic and, moreover, can be cleaned very easily without fear of a loss of luminosity. The lock housing 10 is held, for example, from such a material. In this case, the pushbutton 12 need not necessarily be made of a self-illuminating material. The push button 13 can also consist of a material mixed with self-luminous materials.

Ergänzend oder alternativ ist es erfindungsgemäß auch möglich, den in der Zeichnung dargestellten Schließelementen an den Türen 2, 3 bzw. den Gurtschlössern 8, 9 als selbständige Be­ leuchtungseinrichtung jeweils eine elektrische Lichtquelle zuzuordnen, die aus einem ihr zugeordneten Energiespeicher permanent oder bedarfsweise mit elektrischer Energie versorgt wird. So ist gemäß einem besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungs­ beispiel der Erfindung eine Schaltung vorgesehen, durch die während des normalen Fahrbetriebes des Fahrzeugs 1 die im Bild nicht dargestellte elektrische Lichtquelle aus dem elektrischen Bordnetz mit elektrischer Energie versorgt wird. Gleichzeitig wird dafür gesorgt, daß der der Lichtquelle zugeordnete Energie­ speicher einen bestimmten Mindestenergiegehalt aufweist. Bricht dann beispielsweise unfallbedingt das elektrische Bordnetz zusammen, wird die elektrische Lichtquelle nur noch aus dem Energiespeicher mit elektrischer Energie versorgt. Die Kapazi­ tät des Energiespeichers ist mit Bezug auf den Energiebedarf der elektrischen Lichtquelle so auszulegen, daß diese über mehrere Stunden mit ausreichender Leuchtkraft betrieben werden kann.Additionally or alternatively, it is also possible according to the invention to assign an electric light source to the closing elements shown on the doors 2 , 3 and the belt buckles 8 , 9 as independent lighting devices, which are permanently or, if necessary, supplied with electrical energy from an energy store assigned to them is supplied. Thus, according to a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention, a circuit is provided through which the electrical light source, not shown in the figure, is supplied with electrical energy from the electrical system during the normal driving operation of the vehicle 1 . At the same time, it is ensured that the energy source assigned to the light source has a certain minimum energy content. If, for example, the electrical system breaks down due to an accident, the electrical light source is only supplied with electrical energy from the energy store. The capacity of the energy storage device is to be designed with reference to the energy requirement of the electric light source so that it can be operated for several hours with sufficient luminosity.

Unabhängig vom elektrischen Bordnetz ist die permanente oder periodische Auffüllung des Energiespeichers auch über Solar­ zellen möglich.The permanent or is independent of the electrical system periodic filling of the energy storage also by solar cells possible.

Bei der Wahl elektrischer Lichtquellen ist darauf zu achten, daß diese möglichst unempfindlich gegen Erschütterungen sind und an solchen Stellen im Fahrzeug eingebaut werden, die erfah­ rungsgmäß bei Unfällen unterschiedlichster Art am wenigsten mechanischen Beanspruchungen ausgesetzt sind.When choosing electrical light sources, make sure that that they are as insensitive to shocks as possible and be installed in such places in the vehicle that experienced least in accidents of all kinds are exposed to mechanical stress.

Die Erfindung ist nicht nur auf den Einsatz in Kraftfahrzeugen beschränkt, sondern kann auch in entsprechend ausgerüsteten Luft- oder Wasserfahrzeugen eingesetzt werden.The invention is not only for use in motor vehicles limited, but can also be equipped accordingly Air or water vehicles are used.
