Lighting module for the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle
First Claim
1. A lighting module for the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle, wherein the lighting module includes:
- a housing,a light-emitter disposed in the housing and which emits a light beam having a wavelength selectively chosen from at least two different predetermined wavelengths,an electronic controller for the light-emitter that controls the emission of the light beam with the chosen wavelength,an electrical interconnection support carrying and interconnecting the light-emitter and the electronic controller,an electrical connector that connects the light-emitter and/or the electronic controller to outside of the housing,an optical interface guide that guides the light beam out of the housing;
a base;
a lid, the lid being configured to cooperate with the base to close the housing; and
wherein the electrical connector comprises a terminal strip that includes an upper surface, andwherein the lid comprises an overthickness portion that extends from a surface of the lid and which contacts and presses on the upper surface of the terminal strip when the electrical interconnection support is disposed within the base and when the lid is closed onto the base.

Abstract
A lighting module for the passenger compartment of a motor vehicle includes a housing and light-emitting means arranged in the housing and able to emit a lighting light beam having a wavelength selectively chosen from at least two distinct predetermined wavelengths. Electronic control means for controlling the light-emitting means are arranged to control the emission of the lighting beam with the chosen wavelength. Also included are support for electrical interconnection carrying the light-emitting means and the control means and interconnecting same, electrical connection means for electrical connection of the light-emitting means and/or the electronic control means to the outside of the housing, and optical interface means for guiding the lighting beam outside of the housing.
