The system and method include at least one module having a reflector that is generally elliptical in one cross-section and generally parabolic in another cross-section. Each module is adapted to generate at least one of a flat beam pattern, a high beam pattern or a low beam pattern, such as a low beam pattern with a kink or elbow. Also shown is a headlamp assembly having a plurality of modules that generate the same or a different light beam pattern. Manipulation and variation of facets or positions of various components, such as at least one light source provides improved characteristics in one or more of the light beam patterns.

A headlight is disclosed, comprising a headlight body, a temperature sensor, an IR module, a low beam module, and a controller. The headlight body has a housing and a lampshade. The lampshade has a light-absorbing and heating layer. The temperature sensor is configured inside the headlight body, to detect the temperature of the lamp. The IR module is a wide-angle LED lamp, positioned inside the headlight body, and It directly irradiates toward the lampshade. The low beam module is configured inside the headlight body, emitting toward the lampshade, and an emitting direction of the low beam module crosses an irradiating direction of the IR module. The controller is electrically connected to the IR module and the temperature sensor, and turns on/off the IR module based on the temperature of the lamp.

An LED fog lamp includes a lamp seat and a light-emitting unit. The lamp seat includes a main housing defining a light cavity with a rear opening, and a lampshade mounted to and covering a front side of the main housing. The light-emitting unit includes a heat-dissipating seat having a mounting portion extending into the light cavity via the rear opening, and a light-emitting module mounted on the mounting portion. A light guide unit is mounted inside the light cavity. A positioning mechanism includes a first aligning member disposed on the main housing, a second aligning member disposed on the heat-dissipating seat, and a positioning member detachably interconnecting the first and second aligning members.

The present disclosure relates to a vehicle lamp module, and the vehicle lamp module includes a light source device including a substrate and a plurality of light sources mounted on the substrate, a rod device that provides a path through which light generated by the light source device moves and forms a predetermined beam pattern, and a lens device provided so that the light emitted from the rod device is transmitted and discharged to an outside, wherein some of the plurality of light sources are arranged on the substrate in two rows in a longitudinal direction.

A lens unit, a lens for a low-beam illumination module, a low-beam illumination module and a vehicle. The lens unit includes a rear surface and a front surface; the lens unit has a focal line, and the focal line is a straight line perpendicular to a light emitting direction of the lens unit; the rear surface and the front surface are adapted to project light rays passing through the focal line into parallel light rays, and the front surface is a free-form curved surface. The lens unit has the optical characteristics of a cylindrical lens, and is able to cause parallel incident light to be focused into a line instead of a focal point upon passing through the lens unit.

The present utility model provides an optical element, comprising: a light entry surface; a first reflective surface and a second reflective surface; a light exit surface; and at least one connecting surface, located between the first reflective surface and/or the second reflective surface on the one hand and the light exit surface on the other, wherein the connecting surface at least partly comprises an enhanced reflection part for expanding a maximum exit angle of emergent light exiting via the light exit surface. Advantages: there is no need to process a surface at the light exit surface, so the range of applicability of the optical element is increased; moreover, the optical element according to the present utility model has a greater distance between the light exit surface and light entry surface thereof, i.e. can be thicker, so the optical element can adapt to a greater variety of shapes.
