The present invention relates to a rear lamp which has a 3D light distribution effect so as to represent a sense of depth by the infinity mirror effect and, more specifically, to a rear lamp configured to produce a movable light distribution image.

A slim type lamp apparatus of a vehicle may include a light source for radiating light; and a lens portion including an incident portion through which the light radiated by the light source is incident, a reflection portion extending from the incident portion to reflect and move the incident light, and an emission portion extending from the reflection portion and emitting the light reflected by the reflection portion, the reflection portion diffusing some light upon reflection of the light to form a diffusion beam pattern by the emission portion and condensing other light upon reflection to form a condensing beam pattern by the emission portion.

A lighting system for specialty lighting, which may be attached to a motor vehicle with a window (e.g., glass, plastic, etc.) that is light transmissive. The lighting system may include one or more light assemblies attached to the window in an interior of the vehicle. The lighting system may include an optical path translator to direct the light emitted out the window of the vehicle and limit the amount of light reflected into the cabin of the vehicle. The lighting system may provide concealed electrical connections for power, signal, and data, as well as concealment for one or more additional aspects of the lighting system.

A lamp for an automobile, which includes: a light source; a first light guide unit provided on one side of the light source to face the light source; and a second light guide unit provided on the one side of the light source to face the light source and at least a portion of which is surrounded by the first light guide unit. The first light guide unit includes: a first light guide region which forms one end of the first light guide unit and to which a portion of the light emitted from the light source is incident; and a second light guide region which forms the other end of the first light guide unit and to which another portion of the light emitted from the light source is incident. The second light guide unit is provided between the first and second light guide regions.

A lighting and signaling device for automotive vehicles, comprising a container body delimiting a containment housing closed by a lenticular body, which accommodates at least one first light source and is closed by a lenticular body, a first light guide configured to receive as input at least partially the light beam produced by the first light source, transmits the light beam by total internal reflection along a first prevailing propagation direction and sends it as output from the lenticular body. A fixing and/or screen element, opaque to the light beam is associated with the first light guide at a first interface wall, and is fixed either directly or indirectly onto the container body to mechanically block the first light guide onto the container body. The first light guide is mechanically fixed to the fixing and/or screen element by at least one first welding portion which projects from the first interface wall.

Lighting devices, methods of manufacturing a lighting device, automotive lighting systems including the lighting device are described. A lighting device includes at least one light guide. The at least one light guide includes a cavity having a middle. The at least one light guide is a parabolic collimator having its focus point coincide with the middle of the cavity. The lighting device also includes an encapsulating material that has at least one opening through which light is emitted. The lighting device also includes at least one light-emitting element embedded into the cavity of the light guide. The light-emitting element has a coating oriented towards the at least one opening of the encapsulating material.

A vehicle lamp includes a light emitting unit having a light source and a light guide lens, the light guide lens has an incidence section from which light emitted from the light source enters inside of the light guide lens, and an emission section from which the light entered inside of the light guide lens from the incidence section is emitted to an outside, the incidence section has a plurality of stepped portions which are radially arranged about an optical axis of a light emitted from the light source and which are inclined toward an advancing direction of the light, and the stepped portions have a form in which incidence surfaces, from which a light radially emitted from the light source enters inside of the light guide lens while parallelizing the entered light, and connecting surfaces, which are adjacent to the incidence surfaces, are alternately arranged in a radial direction.

A method is disclosed for manufacturing, by injection molding with use of a mold, a light guide plate in which a first region having a curvature in a first direction and a second region having a predetermined curved surface are connected. The mold includes a first member for forming the first region and a second member for forming the second region. The first member is manufactured by bending a first electroforming stamper on which a predetermined structure is formed by electroforming in a direction corresponding to the first direction.

An illumination device for a motor vehicle includes at least one light source and an elongated waveguide which is delimited along the length thereof by a lateral surface. The waveguide is configured to guide light from the at least one light source along a light propagation direction in a totally reflective manner, the light propagation direction corresponding to the length of the waveguide. The light of the at least one light source can be coupled into the waveguide via a coupling surface at an end face of the waveguide, and a decoupling structure is provided in the lateral surface of the waveguide for decoupling light, which exits the waveguide via an exit region of the lateral surface along the light propagation direction, thereby overriding the total reflection condition.

A lamp module includes a light source unit that generates light; a light guide unit that guides the light incident on an incidence portion from the light source unit to be emitted to an emission portion; and an optical unit that transmits the light emitted from the light guide unit to allow a predetermined beam pattern to be formed. In particular, the optical unit includes a plurality of lenses disposed in a vehicle width direction, and the emission portion includes a plurality of emission surfaces disposed in the vehicle width direction to correspond to the plurality of lenses.
