[0033] In the following description, orientations expressed in particular by the terms "vertical", "horizontal", "longitudinal" (including feminine and plural forms) and relative terms (such as "up", "down", "front" and "rear") refer to the orientation of the assembly and operating position of (one or more) lighting modules on a motor vehicle, as shown in the figures.
[0034] Figures 1 to 3 A lighting module according to a first embodiment of the present invention is shown.
[0035] Figure 1 A perspective view and a front view of a lighting module according to a first embodiment of the present invention are included.
[0036] Figure 2 yes Figure 1 Outline diagram of the lighting module.
[0037] Figure 1 and Figure 2 Described in combination below.
[0038] The lighting module 2 includes a first lighting submodule 4, which is mainly composed of a first optical motor 6 and first optical devices 12 and 14. The first optical motor is configured to generate a first reflected light beam, and the first optical device is configured to project the first reflected light beam into a first projected light beam.
[0039] The first photomotor 6 comprises light sources 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3, and a light collector 10 provided with reflective surfaces 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3, which are positioned side by side and each form an open cavity facing a corresponding one of the light sources 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3. Advantageously, each reflective surface is associated with a specific light source. In this case, the reflective surface 10.1 is positioned facing the light source 8.1, the reflective surface 10.2 faces the light source 8.2, and the reflective surface 10.3 faces the light source 8.3. It should be understood that the number of light source / reflective surface pairs may not be three; it may be one, two, four or even more. The light sources 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 are of the light emitting diode type, and each light source is illuminated in a space defined by a plane and in a main direction perpendicular to said plane. The light emitted by the light sources 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 is collected by the reflective surfaces 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 and reflected towards the first optical devices 12 and 14.
[0040] The first optical device comprises a plane mirror 12 and a projection lens 14. The plane mirror 12 is positioned facing the first light motor 6 so as to receive its light and reflect it towards the projection lens 14. The planar nature of the plane mirror 12 has the effect of not optically modifying the light beam emitted by the first light motor 6. The projection lens 14 has a virtual focal curve or focal line imaged by the plane mirror 12, which passes through the reflective surfaces 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 so as to image the reflective surfaces in question illuminated by the light sources 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3. Preferably, the virtual focal curve or focal line is located on the rear part of the reflective surfaces 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3 (with respect to the main propagation direction of the light beam reflected towards the plane mirror 12), even more preferably between the light sources 8.1, 8.2 and 8.3 and the rear edges of the reflective surfaces 10.1, 10.2 and 10.3. This type of configuration makes it possible to produce a projection beam with a sharp horizontal cut-off by imaging the rear edge in question.
[0041] The lighting module 2 further comprises a second lighting submodule 16, which is mainly constituted by a second light motor 18 and second optical devices 24 and 26, the second light motor being configured to generate a second reflected light beam, and the second optical devices being configured to project the second reflected light beam into a second projected light beam in a manner similar to the first lighting submodule 4 described above. The second light collector 22 comprises reflective surfaces 22.1, 22.2 and 22.3, which are in the form of open cavities facing the corresponding light sources 20.1, 20.2 and 20.3. Reference is made to this description of the first lighting submodule 4.
[0042] It can be observed that the first lighting submodule 6 and the second lighting submodule 18 are positioned on a plate 11 which is tilted at an angle α about a tilting axis 13. This plate is horizontal and transverse to the motor vehicle when the lighting module is in the assembled and operating position on the motor vehicle. The tilting axis 13 corresponds to the y-axis of the Cartesian reference system xyz. When the lighting module is in the assembled and operating position on the motor vehicle, the axis x is parallel to the optical axis 28 of the lighting module 2 and to the longitudinal axis of the motor vehicle. Under these conditions, the y-axis is horizontal and the z-axis is vertical. The tilting angle α of the plate 11 is greater than 0° and less than 90°. In this first embodiment, the angle α is 60°, however it should be understood that this inclination can be smaller or even larger, depending on the space available on the motor vehicle to accommodate the lighting module.
[0043] It can also be observed that the first lighting submodule 6 and the second lighting submodule 18 are positioned one behind the other on the plate 11 according to the projection of the optical axis 28 on the plate 11, i.e. according to the intersection of the vertical longitudinal plane with the plate 11. This arrangement on the plate 11 in combination with its inclination α and the presence of the plane reflectors 12 and 24 on the plate 11 makes it possible to generate a first projection beam and a second projection beam, which are vertically superimposed and combined to form the total projection beam of the lighting module 2.
[0044] It can also be observed that the projection lenses 14 and 26 of the first and second optics of the first and second illumination submodules 4 and 16 are aligned so as to extend according to a common extension parallel to the plate 11 or inclined at a small angle less than 20° relative to said plate 11. Figure 1 In the front view of FIG. 1 (right figure), the projection lenses 14 and 26 extend in a main direction which is illustrated by an axis which is inclined at an angle γ in a horizontal projection of said main direction relative to a longitudinal vertical plane and which is also inclined at an angle γ in a vertical projection of said main direction relative to an optical axis 28 ( Figure 2 ) by this angle. In this first embodiment, the angle γ is 20°. It is advantageously greater than 0° and less than 45°. This inclination is advantageous because it facilitates the integration of the lighting module 2 in a motor vehicle, wherein the space reserved for the lighting module, at least on the outer surface of the motor vehicle, can have this type of inclination, in particular for reasons of style of said motor vehicle. The inclination of the main direction of the projection lenses 14 and 26 is achieved by a corresponding offset of the first photomotor 6 and the second photomotor 18 of the lighting submodules 4 and 16, in particular of the plane reflectors 12 and 24, according to the inclination axis 13 or y-axis.
[0045] The plane mirrors 12 and 24 are parallel to the tilt axis 13 and therefore to the direction y. They each form an inclination angle β relative to the direction perpendicular to the plate 11. In this first embodiment, the angle β is about 30°. It is advantageously greater than 0° and less than 60°. The greater the angle β, the greater the angle α, and vice versa.
[0046] Figure 3 The total projection beam of the lighting module 2 is shown, which is formed by superposition of the first projection beam and the second projection beam of the first lighting submodule 4 and the second lighting submodule 16 ( Figure 1 and Figure 2 ). These curves are curves of equal illumination (isoluminance) according to a Cartesian reference system HV, where H is the horizontal axis and V is the vertical axis, where the optical axis 28 of the lighting module passes through the intersection of said axes H and V. It can be observed that the overall light beam has a horizontal upper cut-off slightly below the axis H. It can therefore relate to a motor vehicle lighting function having a cut-off which is usually called "low beam".
[0047] Figure 4 Shown Figure 1 and Figure 2 The operating principle of each of the two lighting submodules 4 and 16 of the lighting module 2 is shown in FIG.
[0048] For the purpose of clarity of description, a single reflective surface 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 22.1, 22.2 or 22.3 in the form of an open cavity is presented. Hence, a single light source 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 20.1, 20.2 or 20.3 associated with the presented reflective surface is shown.
[0049] The projection lens 14 or 26 has a focal point 14.1 or 26.1 located behind the plane reflector 12 or 24. Due to the effect of the plane reflector 12 or 24, the projection lens 14 or 26 has a virtual focal point 14.2 or 26.2 located on the reflective surface 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 22.1, 22.2 or 22.3, advantageously at the rear edge of the reflective surface. Thus, the projection lens 14 or 26 is configured to image the reflective surface illuminated by the associated light source, in particular the portion of the reflective surface in question where the virtual focal point 14.2 or 26.2 is located.
[0050] The reflecting surface 10.1, 10.2, 10.3, 22.1, 22.2 or 22.3 advantageously has an elliptical or parabolic profile. Advantageously, it is a surface of revolution about an axis parallel to the optical axis of the optical motor 6 or 18. Alternatively, it can be a free-form surface or a swept surface or an asymmetric surface. It can also be multiple, such as comprising multiple sectors. The light collector 10 or 22 in the form of a shell or cover is advantageously made of a material with good heat resistance, such as glass or a synthetic polymer, such as polycarbonate PC or polyetherimide PEI. The expression "parabolic" generally applies to reflectors whose surface has a single focus, i.e. a converging area of light rays, so that the light rays emitted by a light source placed in this converging area are projected to a great distance after reflection from the surface. "Projected to a great distance" means that these rays do not converge to an area that is at least 10 times the size of the reflector. In other words, the reflected rays do not converge to a convergence zone, or if they do, the convergence zone is located at a distance of 10 times or more the size of the reflector. A parabolic surface may or may not therefore have a parabolic portion. A reflector with this type of surface is usually used alone in order to produce a light beam. Alternatively, it can be used as a projection surface associated with an elliptical reflector. In this case, the light source of the parabolic reflector is the convergence zone of the rays reflected by the elliptical reflector.
[0051] The light source 8.1, 8.2, 8.3, 20.1, 20.2 or 20.3 is positioned at the focus of the reflective surface so that its rays are collected and reflected along the optical axis of the light motor 6 or 18. At least some of these reflected rays have an inclination angle of 25° or less, preferably 10° or less, in a plane vertical to said axis, such as within the so-called Gaussian conditions, thus making it possible to obtain the absence of astigmatism, i.e. the uniformity of the projected image. These are the rays that are advantageously reflected by the rear part of the reflective surface.
[0052] Figure 5 and Figure 6 A lighting module according to a second embodiment of the present invention is shown. Reference numerals of the first embodiment are used to denote identical or similar elements, however these reference numerals are increased by 100. Reference is also made to the description of these elements in the first embodiment. Specific reference numerals between 100 and 200 are used to denote elements that are specific to this embodiment.
[0053] The lighting module 102 of the second embodiment differs from the lighting module of the first embodiment mainly in that it comprises a third lighting submodule 130, which comprises a third light motor 132 and third optical means 138 and 140. In this case, the third light motor 132 comprises a single light source 134 and a light collector having a single reflective surface 136 in the form of an open cavity facing the light source 134. The third optical means are similar to the first optical means 112, 114 and the second optical means 124, 126. The third optical means is configured to image the reflective surface 136 illuminated by the light source 134 and form a third projection beam. This beam differs in that it extends less in the horizontal and vertical directions than the first and second projection beams. This reduced horizontal extension is obtained by using only a single reflective surface, while each of the first and second projection beams uses three reflective surfaces positioned side by side. The reduced vertical extension is obtained by providing a cutout at the front edge of the reflective surface 136 of the light collector of the third light motor 132. In addition, the rear edge has a projection (not shown), and the image projected by the projection lens 140 forms an upper horizontal cut-off line with the corresponding projection.
[0054] Figure 6 The total projection beam of the lighting module 102 is shown, which is formed by superimposing the first projection beam, the second projection beam and the third projection beam of the first lighting sub-module 104, the second lighting sub-module 116 and the third lighting sub-module 130 ( Figure 5 ). These curves are curves of equal illumination (iso-illuminance) according to a Cartesian reference system HV, wherein H is the horizontal axis and V is the vertical axis, wherein the optical axis of the lighting module passes through the intersection of said axes H and V.
[0055] It can be clearly seen that the horizontal cut-off line formed by the third lighting submodule 130 as described above has a projection at the intersection of the axes H and V. The projection is centered on the optical axis of the lighting module 102 .
[0056] Figures 7 to 9 A lighting module according to a third embodiment of the present invention is shown. The reference numerals of the second embodiment are used to denote the same or similar elements, however these reference numerals are increased by 100. Reference is also made to the description of these elements in the first and second embodiments. Specific reference numerals between 200 and 300 are used to denote elements that are unique to this embodiment.

[0058] Figure 8 yes Figure 7 Outline diagram of the lighting module.
[0059] Figure 7 and Figure 8 Described in combination below.
[0060] The lighting module 202 of the second embodiment differs from the lighting module of the first embodiment mainly in that it includes a fourth lighting submodule 242, which includes a fourth light motor 244 and fourth optical devices 250 and 252. Moreover, the light collector of each of the first light motor 206, the second light motor 218, the third light motor 232, and the fourth light motor 244 includes a single reflective surface 210, 222, 236, and 248. Similarly, each of the first light motor 206, the second light motor 218, the third light motor 232, and the fourth light motor 244 includes a single light source 208, 220, 234, and 246.
[0061] Fig. 9 The total projection beam of the lighting module 202 is shown, which is formed by superposition of the first projection beam, the second projection beam, the third projection beam and the fourth projection beam of the first lighting sub-module 204, the second lighting sub-module 216, the third lighting sub-module 230 and the fourth lighting sub-module 242 ( Figure 7 ). These curves are curves with equal illumination (isoluminance) according to the Cartesian reference system HV, where H is the horizontal axis and V is the vertical axis, where the optical axis of the lighting module passes through the intersection of the axes H and V. It can be clearly seen that there is no projected horizontal cut-off line at the intersection of the axes H and V.
[0062] about Figure 8 and Fig. 9 It should be noted that the substantially vertical displacement of the board 211 equipped with the first, second, third and fourth lighting submodules relative to the projection lens enables the total projection beam of the lighting module 202 to be vertically displaced, i.e., along Fig. 9 An upward displacement of the board 211 with the illumination submodules relative to the projection lenses 214, 226, 240 and 252 will also cause the total projection beam to be displaced upward, and vice versa.
[0063] These shifts in Figure 8 and Fig. 9 Each of is schematically represented by a double-headed vertical arrow.
[0064] It should be noted that this phenomenon also applies to other embodiments.
