VEHICULAR LAMP
A vehicular lamp includes a light source, a mirror unit that emits a scanning light beam by reflecting a light beam from the light source by reciprocating rotation around two axes, a reflection type phosphor unit that receives the scanning light beam from the mirror unit to produce an image on a phosphor surface, and a projection lens unit that is disposed to face the phosphor surface of the reflection type phosphor unit and through which light emitted from the image incident from the reflection type phosphor unit passes. The projection lens unit has a bottom surface on the inner side and a chamfered surface on the outer side in a radial direction on the incident side.

Reflector device for a light module with electromagnetic shielding
The subject of the invention is a reflector device for a lighting module of a motor vehicle. The device includes a housing made of plastic, wherein the internal faces are metallized so as to reflect the light received. The housing on an external face of one of its walls has reception means able to house a support including at least one light source, the wall having an opening which leads toward the inside of the housing and which allows the light emitted by the light source or sources to propagate toward the inside of the housing. According to the provisions of the invention, the external face of the housing may be connected to ground potential so as to act as a shield against the electromagnetic waves emitted by various electronic components.

LIGHTING DEVICE, VEHICLE, AND METHOD OF CASTING LIGHT
An lighting device 100 includes a light source, a reflector, an actuator, and a controller. The reflector has a first reflection surface that is concave recessed toward a direction away from the light source and is configured to receive light emitted from the light source. The actuator is configured to rotate the reflector with an axis passing through the light source being a rotation axis. The controller is configured to keep the light source on over a time shorter than a rotation period of the reflector according to a rotation angle of the reflector while controlling the actuator to rotate the reflector. A casting direction of light emitted from the first reflection surface is inclined with respect to an extension direction of the rotation axis.
