Arc modular light devices, systems, and methods. In at least one exemplary embodiment of a module system of the present disclosure, the module system comprises a plurality of LED modules, each LED module comprising an outer housing, a light source positioned within the outer housing, and a lens positioned so that light from the light source can be emitted through the lens; and a plate configured to couple to each of the plurality of LED modules; wherein the module system is configured to focus light from the LED modules inward when the plate has a concave curvature; and wherein the module system is configured to spread light from the LED modules outward when the plate has a convex curvature.

The present invention relates to a headlamp's aiming apparatus, in which the headlamp's optical axis is adjustable with respect to a vehicle body, the aiming apparatus that includes a stationary member secured to a portion of the headlamp; a tiltable member attached to the stationary member via one or more adjustment shafts; and a fixed pivot shaft to allow pivotal connection with the headlamp's tiltable member. Adjustment shafts include a ball portion at a forward end portion, a drive shaft portion at a rear end portion and a flexible portion between the ball and drive shaft portions. The pivot shaft in conjunction with the adjustment shafts enable the tiltable member to tilt about a horizontal axis and a vertical axis of the headlamp to adjust the headlamp's optical axis, and the flexible portion is adapted to deflect in multiple directions to enhance accessible degrees of freedom during the headlamp's optical axis adjustments.

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.

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 light system comprising: (a) a vehicle connector configured to connect to a vehicle; (b) a light connector in communication with the vehicle connector, the light connector being movable relative to the vehicle connector; and (c) a bias member connected to the light connector and extending into contact with the vehicle connector so that as the light connector is adjusted the bias member creates a bias force to move the light connector away from the vehicle connector or the bias member is compressed to store energy.
