Lamp apparatus
A lamp apparatus may include: a light source having a light source installed therein; optics including an inlet configured to receive light irradiated from the light source, a outlet configured to discharge the light inputted from the inlet and having a plurality of facets formed thereon, and an optical connector connecting the inlet and the outlet; a light guide positioned between the light source and the optics, and configured to guide the light irradiated from the light source toward the optics; and a support configured to support the optics or the light guide.
EXTERIOR ILLUMINATION AND ICON PROJECTION MODULE FOR VEHICLE
An illumination module for a vehicle includes first, second and third LEDs, and first, second and third masks aligned in with respective ones of the first, second and third LEDs. Light emitted by the first LED that passes through the first mask is a first color and light emitted by the second LED that passes through the second mask is a second color and light emitted by the third LED that passes through the third mask is a third color. When the LEDs are electrically powered to emit light, light emitted by the LEDs passes through the respective masks to project first, second and third projected images at a ground area adjacent the vehicle, each projected image having the respective color. The projected images overlap at the ground area and, combined, establish a multi-color logo or indicia at the ground area adjacent the vehicle.
HOMOGENEOUS REAR COMBINATION LAMP WITHOUT OUTER LENS
A rear combination lamp for a vehicle comprises: a first housing member that is opaque; a first light source inside the first housing member; a first lightguide abutting the first housing member and enclosing the first light source, a first taillight portion extending from the first lightguide; a structural member that is opaque and abuts the first lightguide on an opposite side from the first housing member; a second lightguide abutting the structural member on an opposite side from the first lightguide, a second taillight portion extending from the second lightguide; a second housing member that is opaque and that abuts the second lightguide on an opposite side from the structural member; and a second light source inside the second housing member, wherein the second lightguide encloses the second light source.
LIGHTING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR VEHICLE
The lighting device includes a lens unit mounted on a vehicle body and a light source unit embedded in the lens unit and hidden in the lens unit or configured to radiate light to the lens unit.

Automotive lighting device with signaling function
A lighting and/or signaling device for a motor vehicle able to perform a side signaling function, the device comprising a bezel provided with an opening and a reflex-reflective element arranged at this opening, the reflex-reflective element being mounted to the rear of the bezel.
Self-Contained, Remote Controlled Signaling Bulb
With the introduction of powerful LED lighting and miniature digital radio-on-a-chip integrated circuits, the inventor found to be possible to embed a sufficiently bright LED array and digital transceiver into a traditional bulb housing. This bulb can then be placed into existing tail or other light socket on the exterior of the vehicle and can serve as turn signals being actuated by radio. This bulb can also be part of a self-contained magnetic housing that can be attached temporarily to the vehicle (such as when on the highway.) This self-contained unit contains miniature digital radio, rechargeable battery, and LED light assembly, but NO reliance upon or modification of the vehicle's electrical system. The system was built and tested and prior art was examined.

Optical Casing Having A Reduced Weight For A Motor Vehicle, Optical Module, And Vehicle Body Part
The invention relates to an optical casing for a motor vehicle, including a top portion for receiving a glass panel, a bottom portion, and an assembly of lateral elements for connecting the top portion to the bottom portion, characterized in that the top portion forms a frame that is provided with a joint along the entire periphery thereof, said joint being designed to rest against a sealing surface of a housing in the vehicle.
Automotive lamp
An automotive light is provided that includes a light-guide plate extending inside the rear body of the light remaining substantially parallel to the light reference optical axis close up to the front lenticular hemi-shell of the light with its front side edge facing the strip-shaped transparent or semi-transparent portion of the front lenticular hemi-shell, and a linear-extending light source directing emitted light towards the inside of the light-guide plate through the rear side edge of the same light-guide plate. The rear side edge of the light-guide plate includes a serrated profile with teeth substantially triangular in shape oriented so that a first inclined edge of the tooth is arranged locally substantially perpendicular to the optical reference axis. The light source includes a row of spaced LEDs facing the rear side edge, each LED facing a respective tooth of the rear side edge so as to direct/project emitted light through the first inclined edge of the tooth. The lighting assembly also includes a series of optical collimators interposed between a diode and a corresponding tooth of the rear side edge of the light-guide plate to deflect light rays towards the corresponding inclined edge of the tooth and collimating the rays in a direction substantially parallel to a collimation axis substantially coplanar to the light-guide plate and inclined with respect to the optical reference axis of the light by greater than 0.
