Abstract
The invention relates to a device for illuminating a cab of a utility vehicle, preferably a truck. The device has a roof region (10) and a storage compartment device (12), which is arranged in the roof region (10) and can be closed at least partially by means of a door element (22, 24). The device has an illumination element (38, 40), which is arranged on a roof liner (34) of the roof region (10) such that, by means of the illumination element (38, 40), a cab interior and an interior of the storage compartment device (12) behind the door element (22, 24) can be illuminated when the door element (22, 24) is completely open. The device thus provides function integration since the illumination element (38, 40) is used not only to illuminate the cab interior but also to illuminate the storage compartment device (12) or the luggage rack.
