A substrate supports a light source and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to be able to control lighting and lights-out of the light source. The substrate is supported to a conductive housing. The housing is configured to couple with a transparent cover through which light emitted from the light source is to pass. The housing has a through-hole. A connector unit has a connection part and a terminal holding part. The connection part is arranged outside the housing. At least a part of the insulating terminal holding part is arranged in the through hole. The terminal holding part holds a conductive terminal. The conductive terminal is coupled to the substrate and electrically connected to the control circuit.

The present invention relates to an automotive optical system; the optical system includes one or more first optical elements that reflect light rays emitted from a number of first light sources that are configured to perform a first lighting function and a second optical element; the second optical element is configured to project a light beam from the first optical elements configured to perform the first lighting function where a portion of the second optical element is made of a diffusive material. Furthermore, the optical system includes a number of secondary light sources where the second optical element is configured to receive light ray emissions from the secondary light sources and perform a second lighting function by scattering light rays received from secondary light sources.

The present invention concerns a lighting and/or signaling device (10) for a motor vehicle, said lighting and/or signaling device (10) comprising: a housing (1); an outer lens (3) designed to close the housing (1); at least one light module (5) housed inside said housing (1) comprising: at least one optical surface (9, 9′, 9″); at least one light source (7, 7′) interacting with said optical surface (9, 9′) to form a light beam; a heat sink (11) comprising a plurality of fins (13); an air flow generator (15) designed to generate an air flow (17) towards the heat sink (11), said air flow (17) passing through the fins (13) of the heat sink (11); and a light module holder (19) comprising a front part (20a) oriented toward the outer lens (3) with a plurality of gaps (21) designed to direct the air flow (17) coming from the heat sink (11) towards the outer lens (3).

A luminaire bezel attachment assembly with a lens that is defined by a lens body with one or more bezel engagement keyways, and a flange around the lens body. An inner bezel is coupled to the lens and defined by one or more inner bezel keys receivable within the corresponding one of the one or more bezel engagement keyways of the lens. An outer bezel is coupled to the lens and defined by one or more outer bezel keys that are receivable within the corresponding one of the one or more bezel engagement keyways of the lens. The outer bezel keys overlap the corresponding one of the one or more inner bezel keys.

A low-beam headlight element includes a lens (301) for modifying the distribution pattern of light penetrating the lens, and a reflector element (302) including a first end having a place for a light source (303) and a second end having an opening constituting a passage for the light penetrating the lens. The thickness of the lens is shaped to decrease more strongly towards a first edge (303) of the lens than towards an opposite second edge of lens so as to provide more refractivity on a first area of the lens abutting on the first edge than on a second area of the lens abutting on the second edge. The refractivity on the first area produces a cutoff line in a resulting light distribution pattern. Hence, for achieving a cutoff line meandering in a desired way, there is no need for a screen element which converts light into heat.

A system for assembling a plurality of components into an assembly is provided. The system includes an installation table, a first transfer robot, a second transfer robot, and an adhesive dispensing robot. The first transfer robot is configured to assemble some of the plurality of components into a first sub-assembly and transfer the first sub-assembly to the installation table. The second transfer robot is configured to assemble remaining ones of the plurality of components into a second sub-assembly, transfer the second sub-assembly to the installation table, and attach the second sub-assembly to the first sub-assembly. The adhesive dispensing robot is configured to apply an adhesive between the first sub-assembly and the second sub-assembly, after the second sub-assembly is attached to the first sub-assembly, to bond the second sub-assembly to the first sub-assembly.

A vehicle lamp includes: a lamp body that has an opening in a direction of light radiation; a front cover that covers the opening to define a housing and includes, on an inner surface, an anti-fogging film mainly composed of a synthetic resin; a light source that is disposed in the housing; and a silicone resin part that is disposed in the housing. A content of D3 to D20 cyclic low molecular weight siloxanes in the silicone resin part is 0 ppm to 300 ppm in terms of mass.

A method for manufacturing a vehicle part, including the steps of applying a paint layer on a first face of a transparent or translucent part, applying a varnish layer on the paint layer, partially irradiating the paint layer and the varnish layer with laser radiation so as to etch the paint layer and the varnish layer, and overmolding a semi-transparent film on a second face of the transparent or translucent part opposite the first face.

A method for manufacturing a vehicle part, including the steps of a) overmolding a semi-transparent film on a transparent or translucent part, b1) applying a paint layer on the semi-transparent film, b2) applying a varnish layer on the paint layer, and b3) partially irradiating the paint layer and the varnish layer with laser radiation so as to etch the paint layer and the varnish layer, step a) being implemented before step b1) or after step b3).

A head lamp device of a straddle-type vehicle, comprises at least one lamp unit including at least one light source and a plurality of emission ports through which light emitted from the light source is output; and a cover member including a transmission section which transmits in a forward direction of a vehicle body, the light output through the plurality of emission ports, and covering a front portion of the lamp unit, wherein the transmission section includes a first surface, and a second surface bent with respect to the first surface, and an edge is provided on a ridge line formed by the first surface and the second surface, and wherein the edge extends through a gap formed between two adjacent emission ports of the plurality of emission ports.
