Motor vehicle headlamp with a light module and an adjustment device for adjusting the main beam direction of the light module
The invention relates to a motor vehicle headlamp that has a housing and a light module that is connected to the housing by an adjustment device for adjusting the main beam direction thereof. The adjustment device has a threaded adjustment assembly and a pivot lever, which is supported in the housing such that it can pivot about a stationary pivot point in relation to the housing. The pivot lever has a movement input coupling section at a distance to the pivot point, with which it is coupled in a flexible manner to the adjustment assembly. The pivot lever is connected to the light module at a movement output coupling section that is at a distance to the pivot point and the movement input coupling section.
Automatic Light Alignment
A system may have lights. The lights may be moved using a positioner. Control circuitry may use sensor circuitry to monitor the environment surrounding the system. The sensor circuitry may include one or more sensors to measure the shape of a surface in front of the system and the location of the surface relative to the system. The sensor circuitry may also measure light illumination on the surface. Based on the known shape of the surface in front of the system and the distance of the surface from the system, the control circuitry can predict where a light should be aimed on the surface. By comparing predictions of light illumination on the surface to measurements of light illumination on the surface, the system can determine how to move the light with the positioner to align the light.

LAMP SYSTEM
A high-definition lamp unit includes a plurality of individually controllable pixels, and emits lamp light having a light distribution corresponding to states of the plurality of pixels. A leveling actuator can control a mechanical position of the high-definition lamp unit. A controller controls the leveling actuator and the high-definition lamp unit according to a pitch angle of a vehicle body.

Regulation system of the headlights in a tilting vehicle with roll mechanism
A regulation system of one or more supports of the domes of the headlights in a vehicle having a chassis, a rear wheel, at least one front steering wheel and a roll and steering mechanism operatively connected with the chassis is described. The regulation system comprises articulated connection means between the roll and steering mechanism and the supports for controlling the domes of such headlights so that they rotate such to compensate the roll rotation of the vehicle while driving.

Lighting device in a motor vehicle with a light conductor arrangement
The present invention is directed toward a lighting device of motor vehicle with an arrangement of at least two light conductors. Each conductor includes one coupling arm having a first cross section, a light conductor area with a second cross section, and a transition area located between the coupling arm and the light conductor area. The coupling arms include a respective first contact surface, and the transition areas of the light conductors include a respective second contact surface. The contact surfaces are formed in such a way that the coupling arm of the one light conductor inserts into the transition area of the respective other light conductor. Each one of the two coupling arms include deflectors on a rear side of the coupling arm, which deflect towards the front side, within a section of the transition area where each respective coupling arm fits into the other light conductor.
Adjustable headlight device
An adjustable headlight device for automatically adjusting an angle of headlights includes a headlight housing that is mountable in a headlight space in a forward end of a vehicle. A pair of headlights is pivotally disposed within the headlight housing thereby facilitating each of the pair of headlights to be positioned at a variety of angles in the headlight housing. A tilting unit is integrated into the headlight housing to tilt each of the pair of headlight upwardly or downwardly. A control unit is integrated into the headlight housing to sense an angle of the vehicle with respect to a horizontal plane. The control unit actuates the tilting unit to tilt the pair of headlights to emit light downwardly onto a roadway at an optimum angle for enhancing visibility of the driver.
