The invention relates to a headlight for a vehicle, comprising a concave reflector and a lamp arranged within the reflector to reflect light from the lamp to create an illumination beam with a bright/dark boundary. The lamp comprises a transparent vessel including a longitudinal axis, at least a first and second filament arranged within the vessel. A baffle arranged proximate to the first filament, and comprising first and second upper side edges. The first filament is arranged above a plane including the upper side edges. A different plane is through the center of the first filament and is arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal axis. The upper side edges are arranged symmetrically to a baffle symmetry axis extending from the center of the first filament centrally between the upper side edges. The lamp is arranged within the reflector rotated around said longitudinal axis by a rotation angle of 2-20.

A lighting device for vehicle according to an embodiment includes a main body unit which has a hole penetrating between a first end portion and a second end portion, and in which at least the vicinity of the hole has electrical conductivity; a light emitting module which is provided in the first end portion of the main body unit, and has a light emitting element; a holding unit which is provided inside the hole of the main body unit, has insulation properties, and an end portion on the second end portion side protrudes compared to a peripheral edge of the hole; and a power feeding terminal of which one end is electrically connected to the light emitting module, has electrical conductivity, and stretches inside the holding unit.

A lamp for a headlamp is provided. The lamp includes at least two light source groups each including at least one controllable light source. The light sources of one light source group are set up for emitting yellow light. The light sources of another light source group are set up for emitting at least one of white or blue light. At least the light sources of the at least two light source groups are arranged for producing light that is collectively emittable.

A socket for a lamp includes a connection which is prepared for retaining at least one light source, an optical element which is prepared for optical coupling to the light source, and a bearing. The optical element is movably mounted by the bearing for adaptation to a position of a light exit unit of a connectable light source.

According to one embodiment, a lighting device for vehicles includes a mounting unit including a recessed portion which is provided on one face of a flange, and is open to an end face on a side opposite to a side of the flange; a substrate which is provided on a lower face side of the recessed portion, and includes a light emitting element on a face on the side opposite to a side of the flange; and a plurality of power feeding terminals which protrude from the lower face of the recessed portion, and are soldered to a wiring pattern provided on the substrate, in which a notch portion is provided at a portion on a side face of the recessed portion which faces the plurality of power feeding terminals.

A vehicle lighting device includes a socket, a substrate, at least one light emitting element, a frame part, a sealing part, and a lens. The substrate is provided on one end side of the socket. The light emitting element is provided on the substrate. The frame part surrounds the light emitting element. The sealing part is provided on an inner side of the frame part and covers the light emitting element. The lens is provided on the sealing part and includes an optical part into which a light emitted from the light emitting element enters. The optical part includes a first portion from which the light entered is emitted. The first portion protrudes to a side opposite to a sealing part side. A contour of the first portion is a substantially rectangular shape as viewed from a direction along a central axis of the optical part.

According to the invention, a vehicle component is provided that is formed as a trim part or body part or bumper as well. The vehicle component forms at least one housing part for a light emitter.

A headlamp reflector 12, which accepts a conventional lamp capsule 10 having a sealing gasket 64, has a neck 2 defining a bore 40 and socket 50 to receive and retain lamp capsule 10 with capsule latching structure 52. Reflector neck 2 has a gasket seating surface 47 adjacent to which one or more recessed channels 43 are formed which define air passageways 70 that communicate between inner reflector cavity 19 and neck entrance region 46, allowing air passage past gasket 64 with capsule 10 retained in socket 50, while still allowing gasket 64 to position capsule 10 in reflector bore 40. Gasket seating surface 47 may be located displaced axially from capsule latching structure 52. Embodiments of reflector 12 accommodate a variety of popular, commercially available replaceable lamp capsules 10.
