An image for communication with outside pedestrians is implemented by an afterimage effect by means of a cylindrical display installed at an upper end of a mobility vehicle, and visibility is ensured. In addition, the number of light sources for implementing the image is reduced, an overall size of a lighting device is reduced, and durability and reliability are improved because there is no direct mechanical contact.

A vehicular lighted exterior rearview mirror system includes a lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly and a light module disposed thereat. The light module includes at least three forward illuminating illumination sources that, with the lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly attached at the side of the vehicle, are arranged spaced apart at the lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly. With the lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly attached at the side of the equipped vehicle, the at least three forward illuminating illumination sources, when powered, emit light at least in a forward direction with respect to the vehicle. The light module includes a turn signal indicating illumination source and a light piping element. The light piping element guides light emitted by the turn signal indicating illumination source along the light piping element so as to emanate from the light module at an outboard portion of the mirror casing.

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.

A vehicle lamp includes a lamp housing, a carrier board, LEDs, and an optical unit. The lamp housing includes an accommodating space and an opening connecting the accommodating space. The carrier board is disposed in the accommodating space, and a front surface of the carrier board facing the opening. The LEDs are disposed on the front surface of the carrier board. The optical unit includes a light guide plate, light guide members and beam pattern adjusting structures. The light guide plate includes an upper surface and a lower surface, and the light guide plate covers the opening with the lower surface facing the carrier board. The light guide member protrudes on the lower surface, and each light guide member extends towards one LED. The beam pattern adjusting structures protrude on the upper surface, and each beam pattern adjusting structure is arranged to correspond at least one light guide member.

A lighting apparatus for vehicles, having a light source and a headlamp lens assigned thereto. The headlamp lens has scattering optical elements for scattering the light. A light guide is disposed between the light source and the headlamp lens in such a way that, firstly, light emitted by the light source strikes an area of the headlamp lens delimited by an edge of the same or a portion of the headlamp lens and/or that, secondly, the plurality of light sources are disposed with different spatial orientations with respect to one another in terms of their principal axes such that the light emitted by the light sources strikes different portions of the headlamp lens, wherein the headlamp lens is disposed upstream and/or downstream of the light source in the principal emission direction for the purposes of scattering the light in a transmissive or reflective manner.

A vehicle lamp has a light guiding body having a light guide section having a dimension in which a dimension in one direction perpendicular to an optical axis of the light emitted from the light source is smaller than a dimension in other direction perpendicular to the optical axis and the one direction, an incidence section that causes the light emitted from the light source to enter the light guide section, and an emission section that emits the light guided inside of the light guide section to outside of the light guide section, the shade has an opening section through which light that has entered the incidence section passes, and at a cross section in the one direction, the optical axis is located at a position offset toward one side in the one direction with respect to a central axis of the light guide section.

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.

A circular car side LED projection lamp installed onto a car body and used as a warning light includes a lamp base, a light panel, a light guide frame and a lamp cover. Both light panel and light guide frame are installed in the lamp base, covered by the lamp cover, and connected to the lamp base. The light panel has a drive circuit and plural first LEDs connected to the drive circuit, spaced from each other, and arranged on at least two opposite sides of the light panel. The light guide frame is covered onto the light panel, and two opposite sides of its inner frame perimeter are in a serrated shape with convex teeth extending downwardly to form a light guide part which is covered onto each first LED to receive and guide a beam from each first LED to form a side light.

A vehicular lighted exterior rearview mirror system includes a lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly and a light module. With the mirror assembly attached at a side of a vehicle, the light module is at least in part disposed at a portion of the mirror head of the lighted exterior rearview mirror assembly that faces in a direction of forward travel of the vehicle. The light module includes a two dimensional array of illumination sources that has at least two rows of illumination sources, each row of illumination sources having a plurality of illumination sources. With the mirror assembly attached at the vehicle, the two dimensional array of illumination sources, when electrically powered, emits light at least in the direction of forward travel of the vehicle. The illumination sources of the two dimensional array of illumination sources are controlled responsive to a turn signal of the vehicle being actuated.
