Lamp for vehicle
A lamp for a vehicle includes a first beam pattern formation part configured to emit first light for a first beam pattern and a lens configured to form the first beam pattern by transmitting the first light. The first beam pattern formation part includes a first light source that emits the first light; and a shield configured to block a portion of the first light that is emitted from the first light source toward the lens. The lens includes a spread lens that concentrates incident light to a focal line having a linear shape and a spot lens that concentrates incident light to a point.
VEHICLE LIGHT MODULE, LIGHTING SYSTEM, AND VEHICLE
A vehicle light module includes a light source assembly, a driving assembly, and a shielding assembly. The driving assembly is connected to the shielding assembly. The light source assembly is configured to send a first beam to the shielding assembly, where the shielding assembly is located on a transmission optical path of the first beam. The driving assembly is configured to drive, according to a driving instruction, the shielding assembly to move, to change a relative position between the shielding assembly and the first beam. A second beam emitted from the shielding assembly is displayed on a path around the vehicle in a target light pattern. The shielding assembly includes at least one movable member, at least a part of the first beam is illuminated on the at least one movable member, and a shape of a cross section of the second beam corresponds to the target light pattern.
Optical system for an automotive headlamp
An optical system for use in a headlamp of a motor vehicle includes condenser optics formed by a condenser lens matrix and being provided to focus incoming light beams. It further includes at least one reflective shield being provided to reflect at least a subset of the focused light beams and to create a cut-off line of outgoing light beams. It further includes imaging optics formed by an imaging lens matrix, which is provided to project the focused light beams and the reflected light beams in front of the headlamp, such that the reflected light beams contribute to an intensity hotspot on one side of the cut-off line.
LIGHT IRRADIATION DEVICE AND VEHICULAR LAMP
A light irradiation device (1) includes a light-source module (2), a light deflector (3), a parallel light generation unit (4), and a projecting light generation unit (5) in this order along the optical path. All of the light-collection point of the light-source module (2) on the emission side, the center mirror Or of the light deflector (3), and the focal point of the parallel light generation unit (4) on the incidence side are set at the same position P1. The mirror (31) of the light deflector (3) forward- and reverse-rotates about the axis passing through the mirror center Or to emit scanning light Ls as the reflected light and the deflected light to the parallel light generation unit (4). The parallel light generation unit (4) collimates the scanning light Ls to be parallel light that is parallel to the optical axis for emission.
VEHICLE LAMP
A vehicle lamp is configured in such a manner as to project light from light-emitting elements (22 and 42) of a first and a second lamp unit (20 and 40) forward through lenses (30 and 50) in the lamp and accordingly form a low-beam light distribution pattern having a Z-shaped cut-off line. In addition, a part of a plurality of lens elements formed on a front surface (30a, 50a) of each of the lenses (30 and 50) is formed as a specific lens element (30aA3, 50sB3) having a freeform surface shape. It is configured in such a manner as to form an inclined portion of the Z-shaped cut-off line with light emitted from the specific lens elements (30sA3 and 50sB3). Consequently, the degree of flexibility in forming the Z-shaped cut-off line is increased.
LIGHT MODULE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
The invention relates to a luminous module for a vehicle including at least one light source configured to emit light rays, at least one collector associated with the at least one light source, and configured to collect and direct the light rays from the at least one light source toward at least one exit optical element, with the at least one exit optical element configured to transmit the light rays toward the outside of the vehicle to form a light beam The luminous module further including a system for lateral relative movement of the at least one collector and the at least one associated light source relative to the at least one exit optical element in such a way as to cause the light beam to move laterally.
VEHICLE LIGHTING APPLIANCE LENS, VEHICLE LIGHTING APPLIANCE UNIT, AND VEHICLE LIGHTING APPLIANCE DEVICE
A vehicle lighting appliance lens, a vehicle lighting appliance unit, and a vehicle lighting appliance device each includes an incidence part, a second reflective surface, a cutoff-line forming part, and an emission surface. The cutoff-line forming part is provided in the left-right direction of a vehicle. As a result, the flowability of resin is improved, the control of a low-beam light distribution pattern is improved, and a cutoff line without warping is formed.
LIGHTING DEVICE FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE
The invention relates to a luminous device of a motor vehicle, the device including a first luminous module with first and second sub-modules each provided with a light source, and a collector, the first module including a lens which is designed to project the light reflected by the collectors in light beams with a upper cut-off offset vertically from each other.
Vehicle lamp
A projection lens has first-lens-body including first incidence part located in an area facing first light source and emission part located on a side opposite to the first incidence part, and second-lens-body including second incidence part located in an area facing second light source and third incidence part located between the first incidence part and the second incidence part, and has structure in which the first-lens-body and the second-lens-body abut against each other while first boundary surfaces and second boundary surfaces are interposed between the first-lens-body and the second-lens-body, the first boundary surfaces being provided between the emission part and the third incidence part, and the second boundary surfaces extending from boundary-line with respect to the first boundary surface until the first incidence part and the third incidence part, and the first boundary surfaces and the second boundary surfaces are disposed at acute angle while having the boundary-line disposed therebetween.
Vehicle headlamps
Vehicle headlights are equipped with a right-side lamp, a left-side lamp, and a control unit. A right-side light distribution pattern and a left-side light distribution pattern include an overlapping area and a non-overlapping area. In a case where the steering angle is greater than the prescribed angle, the control unit controls power supplied to light-emitting parts of the right-side lamp and power supplied to light-emitting parts of the left-side lamp such that: a first area of a first light distribution pattern is located in the non-overlapping area; a second area of a second light distribution pattern is located in the overlapping area; and a first intensity of the light in the first area becomes greater than the sum of a second intensity of the light in the second area and a third intensity of the light in the area overlapping the second area within the first light distribution pattern.
