In a light source for headlight, the light emitting element is arranged to be displaced from an optical axis of the projection lens part. The reflection surface part is in a shape of a concave mirror having an optical axis and one focal point on the optical axis. An optical center which is an intersection of the reflection surface part and the optical axis of the reflection surface part is arranged on the optical axis of the projection lens part and between the projection lens part and a focal point of the projection lens part. The optical axis of the reflection surface part is oriented in a direction passing a position between a central part of a light emitting surface of the light emitting element and a central part of the projection lens part.

A vehicle lamp includes: a light source unit including one or more light sources and configured to generate light; a reflector configured to reflect at least part of the light generated by the light source unit; and a lens configured to transmit therethrough a first portion of the light that is generated by the light source unit and that is reflected by the reflector to the lens. The reflector includes: a reflective part configured to reflect, to the lens, the first portion of the light generated by the light source unit; and a non-reflective part configured not to reflect, to the lens, the light generated by the light source unit. The reflective part and the non-reflective part of the reflector are configured to selectively reflect the light generated by the light source unit towards the lens to output a light distribution pattern from the vehicle lamp.

The invention relates to an optical structure (100) for a motor vehicle headlight lighting device (1) that is set up to emit light forming a specified light pattern (LP1), wherein the optical structure (100) of the lighting device (1) is associated with the lighting device (1), or is part of it in such a way, that the optical structure (100) is transilluminated by essentially the entire luminous flux of the lighting device (1), and wherein the optical structure (100) consists of a number of optical structural elements (110) that have a light-scattering effect and that are designed in such a way that the unmodified light pattern (LP1) produced by the lighting device (1) is modified by the optical structure (100) into a specifiable modified light pattern (LP2), and wherein the optical structural elements (110) have a quadrilateral base area (202), i.e., the area (202) between the vertices (201) of a quadrilateral grid (200) is completely covered by the base area of exactly one optical structural element (110).

A vehicle lamp is configured to form a predetermined light distribution pattern (such as a high-beam light distribution pattern) in which a plurality of irradiation patterns each provided with a non-irradiation region is superimposed. The vehicle lamp prevents an area of a common non-irradiation region from decreasing even if the non-irradiation regions formed in the plurality of respective irradiation patterns are displaced from each other. As a result, glare light is prevented from occurring to an irradiation-prohibited object. In the vehicle lamp configured to form the predetermined light distribution pattern in which the plurality of irradiation patterns each provided with the non-irradiation region is superimposed, the plurality of irradiation patterns is superimposed so that the non-irradiation regions are superimposed to form the common non-irradiation region, and the non-irradiation regions formed in the plurality of respective irradiation patterns have sizes different from each other.

A lighting module for motor vehicles is provided. The lighting module comprises at least one lighting engine configured for forming a light beam with a cut-off line running along one or more axes, and at least one lens designed to project the light beam with a cut-off line. The lens comprises diffractive elements which correct all or part of the chromatism of the lens, and it comprises a central region which is lacking any diffractive elements.

Disclosed is a condenser and a high-and-low-beam integrated vehicle lamp module, the condenser comprises at least one light incident portion, a light-transmitting portion, and a light emergent portion, wherein a 50L dark area light shape forming structure is formed on the light-transmitting portion; the 50L dark area light shape forming structure protrudes from a surface of the light-transmitting portion and has a slope surface; and the distance from the slope surface to the surface of the light-transmitting portion gradually increases from a position close to the light incident portion to the light emergent portion. Since the 50L dark area light shape forming structure protrudes out of the surface of the light-transmitting portion and has the slope surface, in a high-beam illumination mode, some light is emitted from the 50L dark area light shape forming structure to a 50L test point.

A high-definition lamp unit contains a plurality of individually controllable pixels, and emits lamp beam having light distribution corresponding to states of the pixels. A first sensor is provided to enable detection of a dynamic component of a pitch angle of a traveling vehicle body. A controller shifts the level of a cut-off line CL of the light distribution up and down, corresponding to the dynamic component of the pitch angle of the vehicle body, with reference to a predetermined level defined as a base.

An illumination device for vehicles with a first light module for producing a first light distribution and with a second light module for producing a second light distribution. The second light module has numerous semiconductor-based light sources arranged as a matrix, a primary optics unit with primary optical elements assigned to each of the light sources and a secondary optics unit. An intermediary optics unit is arranged between the primary optics unit and the secondary optics unit of the second light module; the intermediary optics unit is designed so that a light-intensity gradient of the second light distribution gradually diminishes in a vertical and/or horizontal direction in a lower subarea, in which the first light distribution of the first light module connects or overlaps with an upper subarea.

The control part controls a timing of changing the light emission intensity of the first light source and a timing of changing the light emission intensity of the second light source such that a first light-shielding portion is formed in a part of the first irradiation pattern, a second light-shielding portion is formed in a part of the second irradiation pattern so as to overlap with the first light-shielding portion, and a range of the first light-shielding portion and a range of the second light-shielding portion are deviated from each other.

A vehicle lamp control system is provided which can not only restrict a semiconductor light emitting element from being deteriorated or damaged by sunlight and but also maintain an illumination efficiency of the semiconductor light emitting element. The vehicle lamp control system includes a projection lens, semiconductor light emitting elements disposed near a rear focal point of the projection lens and emit light towards the projection lens, a movable shade which can move between a shading position where the movable shade cuts off light emitted from the semiconductor light emitting elements to be incident on the projection lens and a non-shading position where the movable shade does not cut off light emitting elements to be incident on the projection lens, and a headlamp control unit which executes a control in which the movable shade is moved to the shading position with the semiconductor light emitting elements left switched off.
