A lamp for a vehicle includes a light emitting unit for generating light, and an optical unit for forming a predetermined light irradiation pattern by outputting the light incident from the light emitting unit through a plurality of optical modules each including an incident lens and an output lens. The light emitting unit includes a light source unit, and a plurality of reflectors arranged in a left-right direction to allow the light generated from the light source unit to be reflected to the optical unit, and the optical unit includes a plurality of areas for outputting the light incident from the plurality of reflectors.

An embodiment relates to a lighting device. An embodiment may comprise a lighting device comprising: a light emitting module comprising a circuit board and a plurality of light emitting devices arranged on the circuit board; and a coupling member coupled to the lower surface of the circuit board, wherein the coupling member comprises: a head portion arranged on the lower surface of the circuit board and comprising a first side, a second side opposite the first side, a third side connected to the first side and the second side, and a fourth side opposite the third side; a first support portion extending from one end portion of the head portion in the vertical direction; a second support portion extending from the other end portion of the head portion in the vertical direction; a first elastic portion bent from the first support portion in an outward direction from the first support portion; a second elastic portion bent from the second support portion in an outward direction from the second support portion; a first detachment preventing portion extending from an end of the first elastic portion toward the first support portion; a second detachment preventing portion extending from an end of the second elastic portion toward the second support portion; a first leg portion extending from an end of the first detachment preventing portion toward the lower surface of the circuit board; and a second leg portion extending from an end of the second detachment preventing portion toward the lower surface of the circuit board, wherein the first leg portion has a plurality of first elastic pieces, the second leg portion has a plurality of second elastic pieces, the first elastic pieces of the first leg portion are inclined outwards from the first leg portion, and the second elastic pieces of the second leg portion are inclined outwards from the second leg portion.

Photoluminescence generated by excitation light emitted from an excitation light source can be effectively utilized. A vehicle lamp according to the present invention includes a lamp housing and a lamp lens forming a lamp chamber, an excitation light source disposed in the lamp chamber and emitting excitation light, and a luminescence unit fixed to the lamp lens on a side thereof closer to the lamp chamber and generating photoluminescence by the excitation light emitted from the excitation light source. The lamp lens is a lens that transmits the photoluminescence generated in the luminescence unit and emits the photoluminescence outside the lamp chamber. As a result, the present invention enables effective use of the photoluminescence generated by the excitation light emitted from the excitation light source.

Disclosed are a communication device and method for a vehicle, the device including a housing, an external lens structure covering an open front region of the housing, an internal lens structure mounted in the housing and covered by the external lens structure, a liquid crystal section mounted on the internal lens structure, configured to become transparent or opaque based on whether or not power is applied thereto, and a bezel disposed behind the liquid crystal section, such that the bezel becomes visible from an exterior of the communication device upon the liquid crystal section being controlled to be transparent.

A lighting module is shown and described having a housing with an opening therethrough. A forward portion of the opening may be enclosed by a cap and a rearward portion of the opening may be enclosed by a transparent media. A second media may extend from the opening through a wall of the housing. The cap may be securable to a bar via a mounting apparatus. A PCBA with one or more operational groups of LEDs may be secured within the opening, such that light may be emitted through the media. A second PCBA with one or more operational groups of LEDs may be secured within the opening, such that light may be emitted through the second media. Each operational group may be integrated with a control system of a vehicle, and may be operated individually or collectively. Each operational group may correspond to similar or different colors of light.

A rear liftgate assembly with at least one rear lamp applique assembly and process for manufacturing same. The lamp applique assembly includes a rear lamp applique housing with at least one attachment surface for attaching to an outer panel of the liftgate assembly. A plurality of integrated snap attachment features are provided to connect the lamp applique assembly to the outer panel, thereby eliminating additional bonding and fasteners. A self-sealing wire harness connected accepts an integrated lamp connector, thereby eliminating the need for access openings, to further minimize water intrusion, and eliminate gaskets.
