VEHICLE LIGHTING AND/OR SIGNALING DEVICE HAVING A STEERABLE DYNAMIC BEAM
20180009366 · 2018-01-11 ·

A steerable lighting and/or optical device for a vehicle. A light source transmits a light beam to a rotating mirror which scans or points the light transversely ahead of the vehicle to create a desired beam shape. An intensity of the light source may be modulated during sweeping, including modulation to zero intensity, to control the pattern of light generated by the sweeping beam.

LIGHT MODULE, HEADLIGHT, MOTOR VEHICLE AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE LIGHT MODULE

A light module for a headlight of a motor vehicle, the light module having: a circuit board having at least one illuminating device for emitting light, wherein the circuit board has a longitudinal extent along a Y-axis, a width extent, extending perpendicular to the longitudinal extent, along an X-axis, and a vertical extent, extending perpendicular to the longitudinal extent and the width extent, along a Z-axis; a reflector; and a heat sink on which the circuit board is fastened. The heat sink is fastened to the reflector via a first fastener in such a manner that the first fastener secures a first referencing structure and/or a second referencing structure of the reflector against the circuit board such that the at least one illuminating device is located in a reference position in the direction of the Y-axis and in the direction of the X-axis relative to the reflector.

Vehicle lamp with particular attachment of spatial light modulator to heat sink

A lens holder which supports a projection lens is screwed and fixed to a bracket which supports a spatial light modulator. A positioning pin configured to position the lens holder in a left-right direction with respect to the bracket is inserted into a long hole which is formed in the bracket and extends in a lamp front-rear direction. The screwing and fixing is performed in a state where the positioning pin is inserted into the long hole and is appropriately moved in the lamp front-rear direction, so that the lens holder is restricted from being displaced in a left-right direction with respect to the bracket, and it is possible to finely adjust a positional relationship between the projection lens and the spatial light modulator in the lamp front-rear direction.
