LIGHT SOURCE MODULE
A light source module is switchable between a high beam and a low beam, and is mounted on a vehicle. A first light source is arranged such that its output light is irradiated to a low-beam region by a first optical system. A second light source is arranged such that its output light is irradiated to a high-beam region by a second optical system. A lighting circuit supplies a driving current to the first light source in response to a turn-on instruction for either the high beam or the low beam. Furthermore, the lighting circuit supplies the output current to the second light source in response to a turn-on instruction for the high beam.
Vehicle lamp module and vehicle using same
A vehicle lamp module and a vehicle using same. The vehicle lamp module comprises: a low beam circuit board (1), a low beam reflector (2), a high beam circuit board (3), a high beam condenser (4), a heat radiator (5), a lens (6), a lens support (7), and a module support (8), wherein the low beam reflector (2) serves as an optical element for forming a low beam shape, and the high beam condenser (4) serves as an optical element for forming a high beam shape. The vehicle lamp module has a good light shape uniformity, good low beam visibility, good high beam lighting performance, and excellent heat dissipation performance. Moreover, the module has a relative simple structure, a light weight, a small volume, a low cost, and a good comprehensive performance.
Lamp module and vehicle lamp including the same
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.
LIGHT GUIDE STRUCTURE
A light guide structure is configured in a lighting device of a mobile vehicle. The light guide structure comprises a light injecting surface and a light emitting surface. The light emitting surface comprises a middle section and two side sections deployed respectively at opposite ends of the middle section. The side sections have a plurality of jagged protrusions forming a light guiding area. The extending direction of the jagged protrusions intersects with the light emitting direction. A light source module forms an irradiation area by the light guide structure, the light guiding area extending the width of both sides of the irradiation area, the beam contour being enlarged evenly. The disclosure also provides a headlight structure, a light source module having the light guide structure and a convex lens configured sequentially in the light emitting direction.
Lighting tool for vehicle
A lighting tool for a vehicle includes a light source, and a projection lens configured to project light emitted from the light source forward, a light distribution pattern including a cutoff line at an upper end is formed with the light projected forward of the projection lens, and a refractive surface configured to refract some of the light projected forward of the projection lens in a specific direction is provided on a light emission surface of the projection lens.
HEADLIGHT DEVICE AND LEANING VEHICLE
A headlight device includes a headlight and a control device. The headlight includes a plurality of light sources that is configured to light one or more left oblique areas located in the ahead-driving direction of the leaning vehicle on the left, one or more right oblique areas located in the ahead-driving direction of the leaning vehicle on the right, and one or more lower areas located in the ahead-driving direction of the leaning vehicle. The control device controls the headlight to light at least the left oblique areas and the right oblique areas based on adaptive lighting control. At least one of the left oblique areas and at least one of the right oblique areas that are lit based on the adaptive lighting control spread more outwardly in a left-right direction than any of the lower areas.
HEADLIGHT DEVICE AND LEANING VEHICLE
A control device of a leaning vehicle for controlling bright lighting and dim lighting for a plurality of oblique areas. When the leaning vehicle is upright, the control device controls the lighting by designating one or more of the plurality of oblique areas as in a brightly lit area to which adaptive lighting control is applied, and by designating the other oblique areas as in a dim area. The dim area includes an uppermost oblique area. When the leaning vehicle turns left or right, as a lean angle in a direction of the turn increases, the control device controls the lighting by designating a second uppermost oblique area that is located immediately below the uppermost oblique area in the up-down direction as in the brightly lit area, and moving the uppermost oblique area from the dim area to the brightly lit area.
Vehicle headlamp
A vehicle headlamp includes a shade that shields a part of light emitted from a light source. A predetermined end edge of the shade serves as a cut line forming portion that forms a cut line of a light distribution pattern and the shade is provided with a dimming portion positioned behind the cut line forming portion. The cut line forming portion and the dimming portion form a low-brightness portion having a lower brightness than that of other portions in a part of the light distribution pattern. A portion of the shade including the cut line forming portion is provided as a flat plate-shaped functional surface portion and at least the functional surface portion is tilted backward and downward.
Lighting device for vehicles
A lighting device having a light source, an optical element associated with the light source and designed as a reflection lens which, in a central region accommodating an optical axis of the optical element, has a lens section which has a first coupling-in surface on a coupling-in side and a first coupling-out surface on a coupling-out side. The light source is tilted and/or is arranged rotated about the optical axis in the plane running perpendicular to the optical axis, with the formation of an obliquely running edge of the light source, and the first coupling-in surface, the second coupling-in surface, the reflection surface, the first coupling-out surface, and/or the second coupling-out surface of the optical element are shaped in such a way that the predetermined light distribution is produced with imaging of the edge of the light source as a cut-off line.
