Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to ventilation devices for lighting or signaling devices for motor vehicles.
- a constant concern during the design of these ventilation devices is to ensure satisfactory ventilation or aeration of the interior space of the housing or of the base of the device, while avoiding as effectively as possible the ingress of water, of mud, dust, ... in this interior space.
- the present invention aims to propose a new ventilation device which, thanks to simple, economical means and which does not increase overall overall dimensions, forms a sinuous path improving the barrier effect to liquids, and in which the fixing of the plug is improved. .
- Another object of the invention is to provide a device which is easy to assemble and which can easily receive a foam filter if necessary.
- the present invention provides for this purpose a lighting or signaling device for a motor vehicle as defined in claim 1.
- the reference 100 in FIGS. 1, 2, 5 and 6 designates part of a wall, for example a rear wall, of a headlamp housing according to the present invention.
- the ventilation device according to the invention also comprises a plug illustrated in detail in FIGS. 3 and 4.
- the cap is mounted on the housing by first placing, if necessary, the foam filter 300 between the flexible tabs 210a, 210b and in abutment against the internal face of the partition 204, as illustrated in FIG. 3, and by carrying out a horizontal translation of the plug to engage its upper, lower and lateral partitions around the homologous partitions of the housing and to also engage the tabs 210a, 210b in the opening 1201 formed in the housing.
- the ventilation device opens onto the interior space of the housing or base, from the region of the filter 300, through the opening 1201 partially occupied by the tabs 210a, 210b.
- the assembly of the ventilation device by simple elastic engagement of the plug, is simple; the mechanical strength remains satisfactory even after aging; in addition, the fact that the foam filter possibly provided can be mounted on the plug before assembly facilitates industrialization.
- the filter 300 can be omitted as indicated above.
