LIGHT GUIDE ASSEMBLY, VEHICLE LIGHT AND VEHICLE

The present invention relates to a light guiding assembly, a vehicle lamp and a vehicle. Specifically, the light guide assembly includes at least a first light guide element and a second light guide element, which can be joined to form a predetermined shape, in the region where the first light guide element and the second light guide element are joined, the parts of the first light guide element and the second light guide element that face each other at least partially overlap, so that light leaving one of the first light guide element and the second light guide element can at least partially enter the other. The vehicle lamp and the vehicle have the abovementioned light guide assembly.

ILLUMINATION DEVICE FOR VEHICLES

An illuminating device for vehicles, including an elongated light guide, which has an end face for coupling light into the light guide and has a lateral surface, at which the coupled-in light may be totally reflected in a coupling direction. An elongated reflector is arranged so that it follows the light guide and at least partially behind the light guide in the main emission direction. The light guide is designed such that the coupled-in light is coupled out on a rear-side lateral surface and/or side lateral surface facing the reflector and on a front lateral surface facing away from the reflector. The light guide and the reflector each have a corner region, in which sections of the light guide and sections of the reflector enclose an acute or right or obtuse angle.

A lighting device for a vehicle, comprising a housing, an illuminant arranged in the housing and comprising a light panel for the passage of light generable by the illuminant, wherein a frame is provided, which is molded onto the light panel at least on the edge side in an at least sectionally circumferential fashion using a plastic injection molding process, and wherein the frame is joined to a connection portion of the housing by means of a plastic welded seam. The invention further relates to a method for producing a lighting device.

LAMP FOR VEHICLE AND VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME
20230028111 · 2023-01-26 · ·

Disclosed in a lamp for a vehicle, the lamp including a light source configured to emit light, and a pattern conversion unit disposed forward of the light source and configured to form two or more types of light distribution patterns by receiving the light emitted from the light source, in which the pattern conversion unit includes a light-transmitting member disposed to face the light source and configured to transmit the light emitted from the light source, and a polymer dispersed liquid crystal (PDLC) member provided to be in close contact with one surface of the light-transmitting member.

Lighting Device for a Motor Vehicle

A lighting device for a motor vehicle includes a lighting component having one or more light sources and one or more transparent facet bodies, each of which bodies has a surface consisting of a plurality of planar first facets. Light originating from the one or more light sources is radiated into the one or more transparent facet bodies as first luminous radiation. The first luminous radiation is at least partially refracted on first facets of the one or more transparent facet bodies and subsequently exits the lighting device as second luminous radiation in order to produce light distribution. One or more translucent optical components are located in the lighting device between the lighting component and the one or more transparent facet bodies.

LIGHTING DEVICE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
20230228398 · 2023-07-20 · ·

A lighting device for a motor vehicle having a light source, a light guide with an entrance surface, and a hologram disposed on or in the light guide. The lighting device is configured such that light emanating from the light source enters the entrance surface of the light guide and interacts with the hologram so that an image stored in the hologram is reconstructed and is visible to an observer of the lighting device. The light guide has a first exit surface and a second exit surface. The lighting device is configured such that light that has interacted with the hologram exits through the first exit surface and that light that has not interacted with the hologram exits through the second exit surface.

System with One-Way Filter over Light-emitting Elements

A system may have an exterior display. The exterior display may display symbols that correspond to intended actions for the system or instructions for nearby viewers. The exterior display may include an array of light-emitting diodes, a collimator, a one-way filter to prevent sunlight from washing out the display, and a cover layer. The one-way filter may include a microlens array and a masking layer. The collimator is configured to collimate light from the array of light-emitting diodes and provide the collimated light to the one-way filter. The microlens array receives the collimated light and focuses the collimated light through a plurality of holes in the masking layer. In this way, the majority of display light is passed through the one-way filter towards a viewer. However, the majority of ambient sunlight is blocked by the masking layer, thus preserving a high contrast for the exterior display even in bright sunlight.

LIGHTING DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE

A lighting device for a vehicle, having a plurality of light sources, which are arranged in an array, in particular in line-by-line and column-by-column fashion, and can be operated independently of each other at least in part, wherein the light sources emit light during operation; an exit face through which the light emanating from the light sources passes; and a plurality of extensive boundary elements, which extend at least partly in a region between the light sources and the exit face and serve to separate the light emanating from different light sources, wherein at least some, preferably all, of the extensive boundary elements have a reflector which at least partly reflects the light emanating from one of the light sources in the direction of the exit face.

Lamp unit
