Light module for a motor vehicle illumination device
A light module for a lighting equipment of a motor vehicle including at least one semiconductor light source, which is arranged on a circuit carrier and with a reflector, which is coated with a lacquer and which comprises a mounting section that is coated with the lacquer, which features a broad side and a narrow side and onto which the circuit carrier is attached by a glue connection. The mounting section comprises a surface, out of which projections protrude, which are coated with the lacquer and on which the circuit carrier rests with a distance to the remaining surface of the mounting section and wherein the glue connection is carried out by a glue that is applied next to the projections or between the projections on at least part of the remaining surface of the mounting section.
1. A light module for a lighting equipment of a motor vehicle, comprising at least one semiconductor light source, which is arranged on a circuit carrier and with a reflector, which is coated with a lacquer and which comprises a mounting section that is coated with the lacquer, which features a broad side and a narrow side and onto which the circuit carrier is attached by a glue connection, wherein the mounting section comprises a surface, out of which projections protrude, which are coated with lacquer and on which the circuit carrier rests with a distance to the remaining surface of the mounting section and wherein the glue connection is carried out by a glue that is applied next to the projections or between the projections on at least part of the remaining surface of the mounting section.
2. The light module as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the surface is part of a broad side of the mounting section.
3. The light module as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the narrow side of the mounting section features at least one projection that protrudes from the narrow side, which is coated with lacquer and onto which the circuit carrier rests against.
4. The light module as set forth in claim 2 , wherein the projections feature a shape with reference to the perpendicular cross section of the remaining surface of the broad side and/or the remaining narrow side, which shape is composed of the rectangular or trapezoid base and a convex curvature that adjoins this base.
5. The light module as set forth in claim 4 , wherein the convex curvature merges into the base without any step and without any edge.
6. The light module as set forth in claim 5 , wherein the convex curvature features the shape of a circular arc.
7. The light module as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the projection features a line shape in a top view.
8. The light module as set forth in claim 7 , wherein the projection features a longitudinal direction that extends parallel to the surface out of which is protrudes and perpendicular to its height and a width that is parallel to the surface, perpendicular to the height and perpendicular to the longitudinal direction, wherein its length in longitudinal direction is at least five times as long as its width.
9. The light module as set forth in claim 1 , wherein the projection features a point or circular shape in a top view.
10. The light module as set forth in claim 9 , wherein the projection comprises a truncated cone-shaped base and a distal end in the shape of a convex ball segment that merges into the base.
11. The light module as set forth in claim 1 , wherein a height of the projection ranges between 0.6 mm and 1 mm and that its width ranges between 0.8 and 1.5 mm at it widest point.
12. The light module as set forth in claim 6 , wherein the radius of the circle section amounts to 0.3-0.6 mm and that a height of the base is 0.8 to 1.2 times of the height of the convex curvature.
