The present invention relates to a vehicle lighting device including a lens intended to deflect the light rays emitted by a light source and including a wheel sector with a driven surface. The wheel sector is made in one piece with the lens as a whole. Also included is a driving means with a driving surface such that the driving surface is in contact with the driven surface, and movement of the driving surface drives movement of the lens.

A vehicle lamp includes a projection lens, and a light source disposed behind the projection lens. The vehicle lamp is configured to form a required light distribution pattern by irradiating light emitted from the light source forward through the projection lens. A movable lens configured to be movable in a required direction intersecting with an optical axis of the projection lens is disposed between the projection lens and the light source. A maximum luminous intensity position of the light distribution pattern is changed by moving the movable lens in the required direction.

A headlight (10) and a lighting system (54) with the headlight (10) and a control unit. A motor vehicle (52) has the headlight (10), which combines a full beam matrix (20) and a dipped light in a common pivotable lighting module (18).

A light emitting device of an embodiment includes at least one light source; a wavelength conversion unit for converting the wavelength of excitation light so as to emit the excitation light having the converted wavelength as conversion light; a light transfer unit disposed on a light path between the at least one light source and the wavelength conversion unit for transferring the excitation light to the wavelength conversion unit; and a light-path controller moving at least a part of the light transfer unit so as to adjust at least one from among the direction and intensity of excitation light which enters the wavelength conversion unit.

A lighting system for a leaning vehicle, comprises a pivot frame configured to be fixed to a light emitting and/or light reflective device, a mount configured to be fixed to a light fitting of a leaning vehicle, and a motor attached to the pivot frame and the mount. The motor is configured to provide rotational movement of the pivot frame relative to the mount. A controller in electrical communication with the motor is configured to receive sensor data of a leaning angle of the leaning vehicle, and the controller is configured to control the motor to rotate the pivot frame to a desired angle relative to the mount based on the leaning angle.

An illumination device is provided for a motor vehicle, including a light source consisting of a number of semiconductor diodes, and a scanner onto which a light beam produced by light of the light source falls and which modifies the position of the light beam during operation of the illumination device and thereby moves a light spot generated by the light beam at a distance from the illumination device. The moved light spot allows a predetermined light distribution to be generated. The illumination device is characterized in that a beam delimiting device, which allows the cross-section of the light beam to be delimited along a predetermined boundary, is provided between the light source and the scanner. The illumination device is designed in such a way that one or more light-shadow lines can be formed in the predetermined light distribution by way of at least one section of the predetermined boundary.

The invention relates to a motor vehicle headlamp (101) comprising a light source (105), projection optics (102, 202) and a bracket (106, 206), wherein the light source (105) is mounted on the bracket (106, 206) and is configured to project light in the direction of a projection axis (104, 204) by means of the projection optics (102, 202), wherein the projection optics (102, 202) are mounted in a frame (103, 203) which is movably arranged in the bracket (106, 206). The headlamp further comprises a lever (107, 207) which is rotatably connected, by means of axis elements that form a pivot axis running transversely or normal to the projection axis (104, 204), to the bracket (106, 206). The frame (103, 203) comprises at least one lug (110, 210) which is located between the bracket (106, 206) and the lever (107, 207), and the lever (107, 207) is configured, in the event of a rotational motion around the pivot axis, to press on the at least one lug (110, 210), and thereby to displace the frame (103, 203) in the bracket (106, 206) along the projection axis (104, 204).

A lighting tool for a vehicle includes a first condensing optical system configured to condense a first beam at a first condensing magnification, a second condensing optical system configured to condense a second beam at a second condensing magnification, and a projection optical system configured to project the first beam and the second beam forward, wherein each of a condensing point of the first beam condensed by the first condensing optical system and a condensing point of the second beam condensed by the second condensing optical system are adjusted according to a rear-side focus of the projection optical system.

A headlamp for a vehicle. The headlamp uses individual light emitting didoes or LEDs to generate individual light beams, which collectively form a composite beam. Because of manufacturing irregularities, some of the individual beams overlap neighboring beams, and form bright spots within the composite beam, which are not desirable. It is possible to de-focus the individual beams, to thereby spread out the bright spots, and reduce their intensities. However, that de-focusing would conflict with another goal. When the vehicle follows another vehicle, some individual beams which would apply glare to the other vehicle are shut off. But it is desirable that the remaining active individual beams which flank the other vehicle have sharply defined edges. De-focusing would soften the edges. Therefore, one form of the invention selectively de-focuses individual beams only when they are not adjacent individual beams which are active.

A vehicle lighting device includes at least one headlight, a position and/or acceleration sensor, and a control unit for adjusting a light/dark boundary of the headlight. Pitch movements of the vehicle can be detected by the position and/or acceleration sensor, and a change in the light/dark boundary due to the respective pitch movement can be compensated for by the control unit. The position and/or acceleration sensor and the control unit are arranged in the headlight or directly on the headlight.
