The present invention relates to a motor vehicle light device that includes an optical deflector, at least one bearing element, and a pinning element. The pinning element has a bracing element bearing a contact portion, the bracing element at least partially surrounding the optical deflector, the contact portion bearing against the optical deflector. The optical deflector, the bearing element and the pinning element are arranged so that the optical deflector is at least partially gripped between the bearing piece and the contact portion, so that, in a direction running from the bearing piece to the contact portion, the contact portion is rigid and the bracing element is elastically deformable.

Accroding to the present disclosure, a heat sink, which may be used e.g. for LED lamps or bulbs for motor vehicle lights, includes: a plate-like portion extending along an axis with opposed mounting surfaces for at least one heat source, such as e.g. a LED lighting source, and a finned portion thermally coupled with the plate-like portion and including a plurality of annular fins extending around said axis.

The present invention relates to a vehicle lighting device including a lens intended to deflect the light rays emitted by a light source and including a wheel sector with a driven surface. The wheel sector is made in one piece with the lens as a whole. Also included is a driving means with a driving surface such that the driving surface is in contact with the driven surface, and movement of the driving surface drives movement of the lens.

A substrate supports a light source and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to be able to control lighting and lights-out of the light source. The substrate is supported to a conductive housing. The housing is configured to couple with a transparent cover through which light emitted from the light source is to pass. The housing has a through-hole. A connector unit has a connection part and a terminal holding part. The connection part is arranged outside the housing. At least a part of the insulating terminal holding part is arranged in the through hole. The terminal holding part holds a conductive terminal. The conductive terminal is coupled to the substrate and electrically connected to the control circuit.

A method for acquiring road data onboard a vehicle, the road data associated with a segment of road is provided. The method obtains, via vehicle onboard sensors, sensor data associated with current weather conditions, current road conditions, and a physical road state; determines whether the current weather conditions indicate existence of severe weather, whether the current road conditions indicate potential slip, and whether the physical road state indicates one or more road anomalies; generates a road data result, based on existence of severe weather, potential slip, and one or more road anomalies; and transmits the road data result, via a vehicle onboard telematics unit.

An LED fog lamp includes a lamp seat and a light-emitting unit. The lamp seat includes a main housing defining a light cavity with a rear opening, and a lampshade mounted to and covering a front side of the main housing. The light-emitting unit includes a heat-dissipating seat having a mounting portion extending into the light cavity via the rear opening, and a light-emitting module mounted on the mounting portion. A light guide unit is mounted inside the light cavity. A positioning mechanism includes a first aligning member disposed on the main housing, a second aligning member disposed on the heat-dissipating seat, and a positioning member detachably interconnecting the first and second aligning members.
