A light emitting element, a reflector, a projection lens, and a movable shade are arranged in a lamp chamber. As the movable shade is erected, a low beam is formed. As the movable shade is tilted, a travelling beam is formed. The reflector and a sub reflector are integrally formed. The movable reflector reflects the reflected light reflected by the sub reflector toward the projection lens. The sub reflector is positioned in a range of an outer shape of the projection lens.

An object is to provide a lamp device which can be used as vehicle use headlight, and can form light distribution pattern capable of suppressing generation of dark grids in the field of view. A lamp device is provided which comprises a light source in which a plurality of light emitting elements are regularly arranged in a plane, and the light emitting elements are distributed along a first direction and along a second direction crossing the first direction in the plane, a projecting optic system capable of forming images of the respective light emitting elements of the light source on an image plane located on an optic axis of light beam emitted from the light source, and an image shifter capable of forming basic image of the plurality of light emitting elements on an image plane, and simultaneously forming first moved image which is formed by moving the basic image along the first direction and along the second direction simultaneously on the image plane.

A motor vehicle has a rear light to which a screen, which covers a light housing of the rear light is attached in the region of a water channel arranged or formed adjacent to a rear opening of the motor vehicle. Advantageously, the screen has a passage opening or a cutout that, in the mounted state of the screen, is occupied by a tab of the light housing of the rear light whose shape is complementary to that of the passage opening or the cutout of the screen. The marks relating to the rear light are applied to a tab surface of the tab, and/or are introduced into the tab surface, that is visible from outside the vehicle when the screen is in its mounted state.

An apparatus includes an auxiliary light includes a housing defining a front opening, a light emitting in the housing, and a transparent cover is mounted over the front opening. A plurality of fins are mounted to the housing and extend rearwardly from the front opening. The housing defines a cavity of non-rectangular shape from the opening to a backwall of the cavity. A circuit board has a perimeter conforming to the non-rectangular shape. The circuit board may include cutouts for a plug through the backwall. A heat conducting pad, such as graphite is interposed between the circuit board and the backwall and may likewise conform to the non-rectangular shape.

A modular vehicle accessory mounting system which includes one or more extruded rails designed to attach along a edge of the installation vehicle, one or more modular accessory modules that attach to the extruded rail as well as one or more communication modules that provide power to the accessory modules and serves as a communication bridge between the system and the vehicle or outside world. Generally speaking, these components may be structured to provide a low-profile mounting system for auxiliary illumination and other accessories along the edges of vehicles.

A vehicle lamp comprises a light irradiation unit including a light source and a board on which the light source is installed, a base member including a first surface for mounting the light irradiation unit and a second surface adjacent to the first surface, a connection terminal arranged on the second surface and extending and protruding in a direction of the first surface, and a coupling member arranged on the board and electrically connected with the light source. The connection terminal is inserted into the coupling member when the board is mounted on the first surface.

A configurable vehicle lighting module system includes a shared lens that provides a first light pattern for a first vehicle lighting function and a second light pattern for a second vehicle lighting function. The shared lens includes a mounting axis as a reference for mounting on a vehicle. First internal optics direct light toward the shared lens to provide the first light pattern; second internal optics direct light toward the shared lens to provide the second light pattern. A coupling system joins the shared lens with either the first internal optics to form a first module configuration for the first vehicle lighting function or with the second internal optics to form a second module configuration for the second vehicle lighting function. The shared lens conceals physical differences between internal optics configurations such that the first and second light module configurations appear the same when viewed along the shared lens.

A lamp assembly for a vehicle comprising a housing, a reflector mounted in the housing, a light source, a printed circuit board or PCB mounted on a heatsink of the lamp assembly and coupled to the light source to control operation of the light source. The PCB has a first connector for coupling to a second connector comprising a body having a plurality of resilient or elastic arms that each have a detent for locking the connector to the component and retain electrical contact with the PCB. The wall of the heatsink defines an aperture for receiving the second connector and provides a locking surface that deflects the arms towards the body while engaging and cooperating with the detents to lock the connector to the PCB. The free end of the arms extend beyond the mounting wall and are actuated to unlock the connector from the PCB.
