Abstract
An illumination device for an interior space, such as that of a motor vehicle, for example, has a light source (2) and an opposing reflector system (3) located at a distance across the interior space, wherein the reflector system includes a reflector unit having multiple reflectors (8, 13, 14, 15, 16) each capable of being brought into a position in a beam path (7) of light from the light source (2). The light source (2) can be placed in a center control panel (4) of the motor vehicle, while the reflector system (3) can be placed on a vehicle ceiling located opposite the center control panel (4).
Claims28
An illumination device for illuminating an interior space of a motor vehicle having a light source for transmitting a beam of light and an opposing reflector means for receiving said beam of light from the light source and reflecting it, said reflector means being located a distance from the light source across the interior space of the motor vehicle, wherein the reflector means includes a reflector unit having multiple separate reflectors and said reflector means further includes a reflector positioning means for individually bringing each reflector of said reflector unit into a beam path of the beam of light from the light source.
An illumination device for illuminating an interior space of a motor vehicle having a light source for transmitting a beam of light and an opposing reflector means for receiving said beam of light from the light source and reflecting it, said reflector means being located a distance from the light source across the interior space, wherein the reflector means includes a reflector unit having multiple reflectors and said reflector means further includes a reflector positioning means for bringing each reflector of said reflector unit into a beam path of the beam of light from the light source;
- wherein the reflector unit includes a rotating disk on which multiple reflectors are arranged in a circle.
An illumination device for illuminating an interior space of a motor vehicle having a light source for transmitting a beam of light and an opposing reflector means for receiving said beam of light from the light source and reflecting it, said reflector means being located a distance from the light source across the interior space, wherein the reflector means includes a reflector unit having multiple reflectors and said reflector means further includes a reflector positioning means for bringing each reflector of said reflector unit into a beam path of the beam of light from the light source;
- wherein the reflector unit includes a base plate which is linearly movable, laterally with respect to the beam of light from the light source, on which multiple reflectors are placed.
