A vehicle perimeter lighting assembly includes, among other things, a base having a concave area and a support ledge, a light source supported on the support ledge such that light from the light source is emitted toward the concave area, and a reflector lining the concave area. The reflector is configured to redirect light emitted from the light source toward an area around a vehicle.

A light module for a vehicle may include a light source generating light, a variable mirror generating an image depending on the light by reflecting the light generated by the light source, and an optical receiving the light reflected by the variable mirror, the optical having a continuously curved shape in a left-and-right direction for light introduced into a center of the optical to be condensed and moved and light introduced into a side of the optical to be diffused and moved.

A lamp for a vehicle includes a first light source unit including a plurality of first light sources and for irradiating a first light that forms a first beam pattern, a second light source unit including a plurality of second light sources and for irradiating a second light that forms a second beam pattern, a first reflector including a plurality of first reflection units corresponding to the plurality of first light sources and for reflecting the first light, and a second reflector including a plurality of second reflection units corresponding to the plurality of second light sources and for reflecting the second light. In particular, the plurality of first light sources are disposed along an arc having a first curvature, and the plurality of second light sources are disposed along an arc having a second curvature, the second curvature is greater than the first curvature.

Disclosed is a vehicle lamp including a projection lens, and a light source located behind the projection lens so that light emitted from the light source is irradiated forward through the projection lens. The projection lens includes an upright wall surface formed on a peripheral edge thereof, in which the upright wall surface has a greater longitudinal inclination angle than a front surface of the projection lens. A light control member is located behind the projection lens, in which the light control member is configured to suppress light incident on the projection lens from the light source, from being internally reflected by the upright wall surface.

A method and a device for the reduction of margins of the light image of a headline, and the headline incorporating the device, is provided, having a reflective diaphragm which is adapted to be shifted in a light axis direction within adjustment limits of a longitudinal position. The margins of the light image can be detected by an optical colour-sensitive photometric sensor, and colour characteristics of the light image margins can be evaluated by identifying a current position of the reflective diaphragm. The reflective diaphragm can then be fixed in the longitudinal position corresponding to selected colour characteristics of the light image margins. The reflective diaphragm can also be adapted to be shifted in a direction perpendicular to the light axis direction.

This invention is a projector headlight that, while offering dual beam patterns, boasts a 100% utilization of the light emitted from a light source by one of the following methods: (1) employing a reflective cutoff shield means to reflect the incoming light from said light source back to the reflector to enhance the illumination in low-beam pattern, (2) using reversible cutoff shield means to reflect the incoming light from said light source back to the reflector to enhance the illumination in low-beam pattern with no moving part involved, (3) utilizing a selective light-filter cutoff means to selectively reflect the incoming light from said light source back to the reflector to enhance the illumination in low-beam pattern without making use of any moving part, (4) using a low-beam light-emitting subassembly and a high-beam light-emitting subassembly that are separated by partition means to achieve dual beam patterns with no moving part, or (5) adopting a low-beam light-emitting subassembly in low-beam pattern and a high-beam light-emitting subassembly in high-beam pattern without any moving part.
