Abstract
A light module for a motor vehicle. The light module includes an electrical connection device configured to be arranged in a first position so as to be connected to a power source, and a holding tab configured to reversibly hold the electrical connection device in a second position, in particular during an assembly phase of the light module. The electrical connection device includes a connection member configured to cooperate with the holding tab.
Claims11
A luminous module for a luminous device for an automotive vehicle comprising:
- at least one printed circuit board and at least one luminous source arranged on board;
- at least one electrical connection device configured to be connected to the at least one printed circuit board and including a primary connector configured to be movable and arranged in a first operating position so as to be connected to a power source;
- a support;
- and
- a holding tab connected to the support and configured to reversibly hold the primary connector in a second position, distinct from the first position, notably during an assembly phase of the luminous module, the primary connector including a connection component configured to cooperate with the holding tab.
A luminous device for an automotive vehicle, comprising a luminous module and a plate configured to support at least the luminous module and to cooperate with a primary connector when the primary connector is arranged in the first position, with the luminous module including at least one printed circuit board and at least one luminous source arranged on the board, at least one electrical connection device configured to be connected to the at least one printed circuit board and including the primary connector configured to be movable and arranged in a first operating position so as to be connected to a power source, a support, and a holding tab connected to the support and configured to reversibly hold the primary connector in a second position, distinct from the first position, notably during an assembly phase of the luminous module, the primary connector including a connection component configured to cooperate with the holding tab.
(canceled)
A method for assembling a luminous module including at least one printed circuit board and at least one luminous source arranged on the board, at least one electrical connection device configured to be connected to the at least one printed circuit board and including the primary connector configured to be movable and arranged in a first operating position so as to be connected to a power source, a support, and a holding tab connected to the support and configured to reversibly hold the primary connector in a second position, distinct from the first position, notably during an assembly phase of the luminous module, the primary connector including a connection component configured to cooperate with the holding tab.
- temporarily positioning the primary connector of the electrical connection device in the second position by cooperating between the holding tab and the connection component;
- a phase of carrying out one or more functional and/or photometric tests of the operation of the luminous module by connecting a testing machine to the primary connector arranged in the second position;
- moving the primary connector from the second position to the first position.
