Lighting device for vehicle headlight
10703254 · 2020-07-07 · ·

A lighting device for a vehicle headlight, the lighting device having a first light module (105), a second light module (106) and a third light module (107), wherein, when the modules are installed in a vehicle, the first light module generates a first overall light distribution (A), the second light module generates a first partial light distribution (F), and the third light module generates a second partial light distribution (Z), these distributions being in a region in front of the vehicle. When the first and second light modules are illuminated at the same time, the first overall light distribution at least partially overlaps the first partial light distribution, forming a second overall light distribution (AF). The second partial light distribution lies underneath the hh line and at least partially overlaps the second overall light distribution (AF). When all three light modules are activated simultaneously, a third overall light distribution (AF) is formed.

Lighting module for a motor vehicle
10697601 · 2020-06-30 · ·

A luminous module for an automotive vehicle, including at least one light source each associated with a light-entrance member of a primary optical component that is placed facing a projecting secondary optical component formed by a mirror. The module has three surfaces for treating the geometric aberration of the light rays, two of which are borne by the primary optical component. The exit face of the light-entrance member is placed in a plane coincident with an object focal plane of the projecting system formed by the primary and secondary optical components.

LIGHTING DEVICE AND METHOD FOR GENERATING AN IMPROVED MATRIX BEAM UNIFORMITY

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.
