LED lighting device
An LED lighting device includes a transparent cover member arranged at an exterior member or an interior member and covering an LED element and a light emitting surface of the LED element mounted on a substrate, and a light transmission member receiving emission light from the light emitting surface of the LED element at a light inlet end and operating as a light transmission path. The light transmission member is integrated with the LED element mounted on the substrate together with the cover member using a transparent resin by insertion molding.
DECORATIVE COMPONENT FOR VEHICLE
A decorative component for a vehicle includes a plurality of light source sections, a housing configured to hold the plurality of light source sections, a light guide member that has a first surface and a second surface that face each other and that is configured to guide light emitted from the plurality of light source sections thereinto, and a plurality of light emitting sections that are provided on the light guide member and that are configured to emit light guided through the light guide member from the first surface as emission pattern light having a predetermined shape, wherein a plurality of pattern forming sections are constituted by the light source section and the lightemitting section that correspond to each other, and in each of the pattern forming sections, the light emitting section selectively reflects the light emitted from the corresponding light source section.
ARRANGED LIGHT PIPES FOR AUTOMOTIVE LIGHTING SYSTEMS
The present disclosure relates to a light pipe arrangement for complex automotive lighting features. The light pipe arrangement includes proximately aligned light pipes comprising at least one grouping of reflecting facets for creating a striped aesthetic.
LIGHT GUIDE WITH MOLDED IN GRAPHIC
A light assembly for a motor vehicle includes a first injection molded light diffusing layer, a graphic layer disposed on the first injection molded light diffusing layer, and a second injection molded layer disposed on the graphic layer. The graphic layer is covered by the second injection molded layer.
SILICONE LENSING FOR AESTHETIC AUTOMOTIVE TRIM LIGHTING
A decorative component for an automobile includes a carrier, a light source, a lens, and a cover. The lens is made of silicone material that is UV resistant, and does not include a UV resistant hardcoat. The silicone lens is flexible and covers the light source, and also seals against the carrier structure. The cover is sized to cover a portion of the lens, leaving an uncovered portion of the lens from which light from the light source will be transmitted and made visible. The lens may be formed by reactive injection molding, including a liquid silicone resin with low viscosity, such that the liquid silicone resin reaches small crevices within the mold cavity. A surface of the mold may include fine detail engraving, replicated in the formed solid of the lens, which may provide aesthetic features and/or light diffusion. The silicone resin may also include a diffusion agent.
Arranged light pipes for automotive lighting systems
The present disclosure relates to a light pipe arrangement for complex automotive lighting features. The light pipe arrangement includes proximately aligned light pipes comprising at least one grouping of reflecting facets for creating a striped aesthetic.
VEHICLE LIGHTING ASSEMBLY
A vehicle lighting assembly is provided herein. The vehicle lighting assembly includes a substrate configured to direct excitation light therethrough. A reflector is disposed along a portion of the substrate. The reflector has an offset orientation. A luminescent structure is disposed on an opposing side of the reflector from the substrate.
VEHICLE LIGHT LENS, VEHICLE LIGHT, AND CORRECTION SYSTEM THEREOF
A vehicle light includes: a light lens having a base panel made of a transparent plastic material, an outer paint layer disposed on an outer surface of the base panel, and an inner paint layer disposed on an inner surface of the base panel and including a light-transmitting hole formed therein; and a light source installed to be spaced apart from the light lens, in which light from the light source is transmitted out of the light lens through the light-transmitting hole and the base panel.
VEHICULAR EXTERIOR REARVIEW MIRROR ASSEMBLY
A vehicular exterior rearview mirror assembly includes a mirror head accommodating a mirror reflective element and an illumination module, which includes a light source, a first mask, and a second mask. When the light source is powered, emitted light that passes through the first mask is a first color and emitted light that passes through the second mask is a second color. With the mirror assembly mounted at a vehicle, and when the light source is powered to emit light, light emitted by the light source passes through the first mask to project a first projected image onto a ground region and passes through the second mask to project a second projected image onto the ground region. The first projected image includes a first logo portion having the first color, and the second projected image includes a second logo portion having the second color.
Lighting device for identification of the type of propulsion of a motor vehicle
A lighting device for a motor vehicle, the lighting device being designed to emit at least one light beam, at least one characteristic of which relates to the type of propulsion of the motor vehicle, the device being arranged to emit the light beam at least when the motor vehicle is moving.
