CAP LAMP CONSTRUCTION
Cap lamp consists of the following:
•
Battery Casing.
•
Head Lamp.
•
Cable (links the Battery Casing with the Head Lamp).
3.1
Battery Casing
The Battery Casing consists of the following:
•
Enclosure that is made of a robust plastic. At the bottom of the enclosure there are three
contacts that are used to charge the battery and transmit data to the cap lamp and back.
•
NiMH Battery Set that supplies electrical power to the cap lamp. After inserting the cap lamp
into a charger, the battery is charged through contacts at the bottom of the enclosure. The
working and charging cycles of the battery are controlled by microprocessor.
•
Plate containing a pressure relief micro-valve, separating the battery from the PC board. The
micro-valve releases the air from the enclosure and it opens if the enclosure’s inside pressure
exceeds 0.3bar .
•
Electronic Board – Ref.. page 10 - that contains a microprocessor as well as other electronic
components. The electronic board controls the operation of the cap lamp. The electronic
board is equipped with the following:
-
Plug-in Socket to connect the casing cover (Figure 1-3) to the battery set (Figure 1-
1). Programmer unit can also be connected via the plug-in socket.
-
Terminal Strip to connect a cable (Figure 1-5) linking the battery set (Figure 1-1) to
the head lamp (Figure 1-6). The electronic board is encapsulated in the casing cover
with a polyurethane filling.
•
Battery Casing Cover – Ref. page 10 - (Figure 1-3) is made of a high impact resistant plastic.
The cover is mounted to the enclosure with two six lobe bolts. A special rubber seal (Figure
1-4) ensures tight fit. An emergency ELED diode is encapsulated in the cover. The cover
(Figure 1-3) has a cable inlet for the cable that connects the battery set (Figure 1-1) to the
head lamp (Figure 1-6). The lamp’s membrane switch (Figure 1-10) is located on the
opposite site on the top of the cover. The cover (Figure 1-3) is connected to the electronic
board by means of a cable with a connector pin. In case of a cable (Figure 1-5) breakage
between the head lamp and the battery, the ELED emergency diode mounted in the cover of
the battery casing (Figure 1-3) starts to emit continuous light. The ELED diode light protects
the users from a complete loss of light.
The battery casing can be fitted to a hip belt by means of a stainless steel wire belt bracket
(Figure 1-2) that is fitted to the battery casing.
