Headlight module and headlight device

A headlight module includes a light source, a light guide element, and a projection optical element. The light source emits light. The light guide element has a reflecting surface for reflecting light emitted from the light source and an emitting surface for emitting light reflected by the reflecting surface. The projection optical element projects light emitted from the emitting surface. In a direction of an optical axis of the projection optical element, an end portion on the emitting surface side of the reflecting surface includes a point located at a focal position of the projection optical element.

Headlight module and headlight device

A headlight module includes: a light source for emitting light; a condensing optical element for concentrating the light; and an optical element including an incident surface for receiving the concentrated light, a reflecting surface for reflecting the received light, and an emitting surface for emitting the reflected light. The condensing optical element changes a divergence angle of the light to form a light distribution pattern. The reflected light and light that enters the optical element and is not reflected by the reflecting surface are superposed on a plane including a point located at a focal position of the emitting surface in a direction of an optical axis of the emitting surface and being perpendicular to the optical axis, thereby forming a high luminous intensity region in the light distribution pattern on the plane. The emitting surface has positive refractive power and projects the light distribution pattern formed on the plane.

Vehicle signaling configurable to various articles and apparel is provided. An example system allows a user to dynamically assign vehicle signals for activating brake lights, turn signals, running lights, headlights, police emergency lights, and so forth, to user-selected lights built into articles and apparel. Vehicle signals may be wirelessly assigned to lights on articles and apparel through a smart phone application, or other portable software means. The system forms a self-managing wireless network, to which the user can add any number of additional illuminated articles and pieces of illuminated apparel, which are automatically sensed and integrated. An example helmet spoiler, for example, has a receiver for processing a wireless signal from a vehicle, to actuate brake lights, turn signals, headlights, and the like on the spoiler itself. In a police implementation, a helmet actuates police flashers on the helmet based on an assigned wireless signal from a police vehicle.

Straddle-type vehicle

The purpose of the present invention is to provide a straddle-type vehicle that enables reducing the number of components. Between front forks at the bottom edge of a top bridge configuring a motorcycle, a stay is provided which supports turn signals on each of the front forks. In this case, the stay is configured from a single member. Further, a stay fixing unit for fixing the stay and a first front fork fixing unit for fixing the front forks are provided on the top bridge. By this means, it is possible for the stay to be a single common member that supports turn signals on each of the front forks.

Lighting system

A motorcycle light includes a lighting device, having a headlight contained within a housing; a rod configured to engage with a headlight connection of a motorcycle; and one or more wires to engage with an electrical system of the motorcycle; a motor engaged with the housing and to provide rotational movement of the housing relative to the rod; and one or more sensors in electrical communication with the motor and to detect when the motorcycle is at a leaning position, the one or more sensors to provide a command to the motor to rotate the housing to a desired angle for improved visibility.

Lighting apparatus arrangement for saddle riding vehicle, and saddle riding vehicle

To provide a lighting apparatus arrangement for a saddle riding vehicle, allowing a predetermined illumination distance and illumination range of laser light to be easily achieved. A lighting apparatus includes a laser device, a first light guide, and a front-portion light emitting unit. The laser device emits laser light. The first light guide guides light from the laser device to any desired position. The front-portion light emitting unit is disposed at a distal end of the first light guide and irradiates areas around a vehicle with light from the first light guide. The front-portion light emitting unit is disposed at a position higher in level than a lower end of a meter unit disposed at a front portion of a vehicle body.

Lighting device structure including auxiliary illumination

A lighting device structure includes lighting sources configured to provide lighting illumination, a reflector configured to reflect lighting illumination from the lighting sources as the LED elements, an inner lens mounted to the reflector. The lighting sources, the reflector, the inner lens are housed within a housing, and an outer lens assembled to the housing. The inner lens is mounted to a front end of the reflector and comprises an overlapping portion positions between an outline wall of the reflector and the inner lens. The overlapping portion of the inner lens induces lighting illumination and illuminates the inner lens.
