A lamp for a vehicle includes an optical unit including a plurality of optical modules to form a specific beam pattern on a road surface, the beam pattern includes a first pattern area and a second pattern area more spaced apart from the optical unit than the first pattern area, the optical unit includes a first optical module to form the first pattern area and a second optical module to form the second pattern area, and the second pattern area is placed on an optical axis of the second optical module.

A cover body includes: a multi-color molded body including a first resin portion having a gate mark on an outer surface thereof, and a second resin portion having a color different from a color of the first resin portion and adhering to the outer surface of the first resin portion to cover the gate mark. An outer surface of the second resin portion includes a stepped portion that overlaps with the gate mark.

To provide a vehicular lamp capable of making a desired light distribution on a light shielding member while having a simple configuration. The vehicular lamp comprises a first and second light source each having a light emitting surface and being arranged in a predetermined parallel direction; a single condenser lens for condensing light emitted from the first and second light source; a light shielding member provided with an irradiation slit through which light condensed by the condenser lens is partially passed; and a projection lens for projecting light passed through the light shielding member to form an irradiation pattern. The first and second light source are arranged with an interval equal to or larger than dimensions in the parallel direction on the light emitting surfaces, the condenser lens makes a light distribution in which a high light quantity area with the highest light quantity is single in the parallel direction.

Vehicle exterior lighting systems for vehicles equipped with tailgate assemblies may be configured to provide redundant backup lighting functionality for all tailgate positions (e.g., closed, open, and removed). Exemplary systems may include both vehicle static body structure mounted backup lamps and tailgate structure mounted backup lamps for providing the backup lighting redundancy.

A second light source, a second incidence section and a second reflecting section in a vehicle lamp are disposed closer to a light guide section than a first light source, a first incidence section and a first reflecting section, a stepped section is provided between the first reflecting section and the second reflecting section, and the first reflecting section is disposed at above the stepped section and the second reflecting section is disposed at below the stepped section when seen from a side of the first incidence section and a side of the second incidence section.

A backup light apparatus provides a somewhat uniform distribution of light intensity in an area within the view of a backup camera of a vehicle. The backup light apparatus may satisfy various governmental and manufacturer safety rules. The backup light apparatus has a pillow lens array, a first collimator, a prism lens array, and a second collimator. The first collimator directs light in the direction of its optical axis to the pillow lens array. The second collimator directs light in the direction of its optical axis to the prism lens array. The pillow lens array has an array of pillow lenses facing away from the first collimator. The prism lens array has an array of prism lenses facing away from the second collimator. The prism lenses direct light at varying angles relative to the optical axis of the second collimator.

A lamp for vehicle includes a light source unit that generates light, a shield unit that selectively transmits a portion of the light of the light source unit, and a lens unit that concentrates the light transmitted through the shield unit to a road surface. The shield unit includes at least one protrusion member that protrudes outwardly from a surface of the shield unit.

Vehicle exterior lighting systems for vehicles equipped with tailgate assemblies may be configured to provide redundant backup lighting functionality for all tailgate positions (e.g., closed, open, and removed). Exemplary systems may include both vehicle static body structure mounted backup lamps and tailgate structure mounted backup lamps for providing the backup lighting redundancy.

Various embodiments of a combination lamp are provided, which combine a plurality of different lamp functions in a unitary configuration, and can reduce the total amount of space taken up for at least substantially the same amount of illumination produced. The combination lamps can be configured for use on vehicles, light fixtures, free standing lamps, decorative articles, etc. In some embodiments, each lamp component may have a power connection element independent from the other lamp components.

A semiconductor light source and driving aid system for a motor vehicle comprising a semiconductor light source. The semiconductor light source includes a plurality of electroluminescent rods of submillimetric dimensions. At least certain rods are electrically interconnected in a first assembly dedicated to an emission of a light beam at a first wavelength, and other rods are electrically interconnected in a second assembly dedicated to an emission of a light beam at a second wavelength different from the first wavelength, the first and the second assemblies forming two selectively activable emission areas.
