20220403998 · 2022-12-22 · ·

An illumination system for a vehicle includes a headlight configured to emit a light beam along an optical path and into an environment. The illumination system includes an optical element having a body comprising four sides. The optical element is positioned along the optical path and configured to redirect the light beam. The illumination system includes a front lens positioned along the optical path and configured to receive the light beam from the optical element and collimate the light beam as the light beam passes into the environment. The optical element is configured to move around an optical element axis to translate the light beam relative to an azimuth plane of the environment.

Lighting device for vehicle

The present disclosure relates to a lighting device for a vehicle, including a housing unit positioned on a vehicle body and configured to have an opening, a light source unit positioned on the housing unit and configured to radiate light, a reflection unit provided in the housing unit and configured to reflect the light, radiated by the light source unit, by differently setting a reflection angle for each section, and a screen unit positioned on the housing unit and configured to cover the opening and implement grill lighting by transmitting the light reflected by the reflection unit.

The present invention relates to a vehicle lamp module comprising a lens, a shading plate with a cut-off line structure, a low beam module, and a high beam module. Light emitted by the low beam module is suitable for interception by the shading plate and then emission to the lens to form a low beam type. Light emitted by the high beam module is suitable for interception by the shading plate and then emission to the lens to form a main high beam type located above a light and shade cut-off line. The vehicle lamp module further comprises an auxiliary high beam module. Light emitted by the auxiliary high beam module is suitable for interception by the shading plate and then emission to the lens to form an auxiliary high beam type located below the light and shade cut-off. The vehicle lamp module provides high beam with more uniform brightness.

LIGHTING MODULE FOR A SIDE PORTION OF A VEHICLE
20220390085 · 2022-12-08 · ·

A lighting device for a motor vehicle includes a housing having a front lighting surface, and a substantially planar plate and at least one lighting module mounted on the plate. The plate has a general plane of extension that is horizontal when the housing is mounted in the vehicle, and has a surface referred to as a lower surface and a surface referred to as an upper surface. The plate includes a first control system which includes a first male element and is arranged to cause translation of the first male element in an axis parallel to the plate, the plate being provided with a first recess receiving the first male element. A second control system that includes a second male element and is arranged to cause translation of the second male element in an axis perpendicular to the plate, the plate being provided with a second recess on its upper or lower surface that receives the second male element. The housing thus takes up less space above the modules, which can easily be raised.

VEHICLE LIGHT GUIDE AND VEHICLE HEADLIGHT
20220390080 · 2022-12-08 · ·

A vehicle light guide and a vehicle headlight which can improve long-distance visibility are provided. The vehicle light guide has a shape having an incident surface on which light from a light source is incident, a first reflective surface which internally reflects the light incident from the incident surface toward a front in a front-back direction in a vehicle-mounted state, a second reflective surface having a shape with an inclined portion inclined to a lower side in the front-back direction in the vehicle-mounted state across an edge side on the front in the front-back direction and internally reflecting the light reflected by the first reflective surface toward the front in the front-back direction, and an emission surface that emits the light internally reflected by the first reflective surface and the second reflective surface and emits a light distribution pattern to the front of the vehicle.

Multiband Adjustable Lights
20220390082 · 2022-12-08 ·

A vehicle may have lights such as headlights. The lights may emit visible and infrared light. Infrared light may be used to illuminate objects that are monitored using infrared image sensors or other infrared sensors. Visible light may be used to illuminate objects that are viewed by vehicle occupants and which may be monitored using sensors. Headlights and other lights in the vehicle may be adjustable. An adjustable light may have a light source that contains an infrared light-emitting device such as an infrared light-emitting diode and a visible light-emitting device such as a visible light-emitting diode. A reflector may reflect light from the light source towards a lens. An adjustable light-blocking device may be located between the reflector and the lens. The light-blocking device may allow infrared light to pass unimpeded while adjusting visible light passing to the lens.
