[0039] The rear portion 10 may include a rear body 11 , a first actuator 12 , and a second actuator 13 .

[0040] The rear body 11 may accommodate the rear lamp 100 and the spoiler 200 therein. In other words, the rear lamp 100 may be accommodated in the rear body 11. The rear body 11 facing the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle may be provided with an opening 11a at an outer surface.

[0041] The rear lamp 100 is accommodated in the rear body 11 in a slidably movable manner. Therefore, the rear lamp 100 may be exposed to the outside through the opening 11a in the rear body 11.

[0042] The spoiler 200 may be received behind the opening 11 a formed in the upper surface of the rear body 11. The spoiler 200 may be mounted on the rear lamp 100.

[0049] The lamp body 120 may be accommodated in the lamp housing unit 110. In other words, the lamp body 120 may be movably accommodated in the lamp housing unit 110.

[0050] The lamp housing unit 110 facing the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle may be provided with an opening 110 a on the outer surface. Therefore, the lamp body 120 may be exposed to the outside through the opening 110 a in the lamp housing unit 110 .

[0051] The light source unit 121 may be provided in the lamp body 120. The light source unit 121 may be provided on an end portion of the lamp body 120 facing the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0053] When the lamp body 120 is exposed to the outside through the opening 11 a of the rear body 11 , the pattern portion 121 a may be recognized from the outside, and thus it may be checked from the outside whether the rear lamp 100 operates.

[0054] The control unit 20 may individually control the operation of the first actuator 12, the operation of the second actuator 13, and the operation of the rear lamp 100. The control unit 20 may control the operation of the first actuator 12, the operation of the second actuator 13, and the operation of the rear lamp 100 according to the driving mode of the vehicle, which is automatically changed by a signal generated by a vehicle speed sensor of the vehicle. In addition, the control unit 20 may control the operation of the first actuator 12, the operation of the second actuator 13, and the operation of the rear lamp 100 according to the driving mode of the vehicle selected by manual operation of the occupant.

[0055] The control unit 20 may be electrically connected to the first actuator 12 and control the operation of the first actuator 12 to move the tail lamp 100 toward the rear-front direction of the vehicle.

[0056] The control unit 20 may be electrically connected to the second actuator 13 , and may change the tilt angle of the spoiler 200 by controlling the operation of the second actuator 13 so that the spoiler 200 is tilted in the up-and-down direction.

[0057] The control unit 20 may be electrically connected to the light source unit 121, and may control the on and off operation of the light source unit 121. In other words, the control unit 20 may perform control of turning on or off the light source unit 121 according to the driving speed of the vehicle.

[0058] According to the first embodiment of the present disclosure, the operation process of the variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle configured as above is described as follows.

[0059] refer to Figures 1 to 5 , the control unit 20 may control the operation of the first actuator 12 to insert the rear lamp 100 into the rear body 11 so that the rear lamp 100 does not extend in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0060] The spoiler 200 moving together with the rear lamp 100 also does not extend in the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle, and the control unit 20 may control the operation of the second actuator 13 so that the tilt angle of the spoiler 200 is 0 degrees.

[0061] At this time, the control unit 20 may perform a turn-off control on the light source unit 121 to turn off the light source unit 121 , or may perform a turn-on control on the light source unit 121 to turn on the light source unit 121 .

[0062] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 When the vehicle is traveling at a high speed of about 100 km / h to about 130 km / h, the control unit 20 can control the operation of the first actuator 12 so that the lamp body 120 inserted into the lamp housing unit 110 is exposed from the rear of the rear body 11 and extends in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0063] The spoiler 200 moving together with the rear lamp 100 also extends together with the lamp body 120 in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle, and the control unit 20 can control the operation of the second actuator 13 so that the spoiler 200 continues to maintain its tilt angle of 0 degrees.

[0064] The movement of the lamp body 120 can achieve the dual effects of improving aerodynamic performance and ensuring safe driving when the vehicle is traveling at high speed.

[0065] At this time, the control unit 20 may perform turn-off control of the light source unit 121 to turn off the light source unit 121 , or may perform turn-on control of the light source unit 121 to turn on the light source unit 121 .

[0066] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5When the vehicle is traveling at a constant speed of about 70 km / h or about 100 km / h, the control unit 20 can control the operation of the first actuator 12 so that the lamp housing unit 110 inserted into the rear body 11 is exposed to the outside from the rear of the rear body 11 and extends together with the lamp body 120 in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0067] The spoiler 200 moving together with the rear lamp 100 also extends together with the lamp housing unit 110 and the lamp body 120 in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle, and the control unit 20 can control the operation of the second actuator 13 so that the spoiler 200 continues to maintain its tilt angle of 0 degrees.

[0068] When the vehicle travels at a constant speed, the movement of the lamp housing unit 110 and the lamp body 120 may redirect the flow of the vortex formed behind the vehicle, allowing the vehicle to travel a greater distance.

[0069] At this time, the control unit 20 may perform turn-off control of the light source unit 121 to turn off the light source unit 121 , or may perform turn-on control of the light source unit 121 to turn on the light source unit 121 .

[0070] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 When the vehicle is traveling at a speed of about 130 km / h or more, or in bad weather, the control unit 20 may control the operation of the first actuator 12 so that the lamp body 120 inserted into the lamp housing unit 110 is exposed to the outside from the rear of the rear body 11 and extends in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle. In addition, the control unit 20 may control the operation of the second actuator 13 so that the spoiler 200 has an inclination angle of about 40 degrees to about 90 degrees.

[0071] When the vehicle is traveling at high speed or in extremely bad weather, the tilting operation of the spoiler 200 can redirect the flow of airflow in a downward direction, thereby enhancing the grip of the tire on the road, improving stability when traveling forward, and contributing to safe driving.

[0072] At this time, the control unit 20 may perform turn-off control of the light source unit 121 to turn off the light source unit 121 , or may perform turn-on control of the light source unit 121 to turn on the light source unit 121 .

[0074] refer to Figures 6 to 9 , the variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle according to the second embodiment includes a rear lamp 300 and a spoiler 400, which are described in detail as follows.

[0075] The rear lamp 300 is provided in the rear portion 30 of the vehicle. The rear lamp 300 may emit light in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle. The rear lamp 300 may be arranged along an edge of an outer surface of the rear portion 30 facing in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle, and may emit linear light in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0076] The spoiler 400 is movably provided in the rear portion 30. The spoiler 400 may be positioned on the top of the rear lamp 300 and may be arranged on the central portion of the rear lamp 300. The spoiler 400 may be moved in the front-rear direction of the vehicle. The spoiler 400 may be tilted in the up-and-down direction after moving in the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0077] The spoiler 400 may include a first spoiler 410 and a second spoiler 420. The first spoiler 410 may be disposed on a central portion of the rear portion 30, and the second spoilers 420 may be disposed on both sides of the first spoiler 410, respectively.

[0078] The rear portion 30 may include a rear body 31 , a first actuator 32 , and a second actuator 33 .

[0079] The spoiler 400 may be accommodated in the rear body 31. In other words, the spoiler 400 may be accommodated in the rear body 31. The rear body 31 facing the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle may be provided with an opening 31a at an outer surface.

[0080] The first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 may be slidably accommodated in the rear body 31. Therefore, the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 may be exposed to the outside through the opening 31a in the rear body 31.

[0081] The first actuator 32 may be provided in the rear body 31. The first actuator 32 may be connected to the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 so that the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 may be moved in a straight line.

[0082] The second actuator 33 may be provided in the rear body 31. The second actuator 33 may be connected to the first spoiler 410 so that an inclination angle of the first spoiler 410 in the up-down direction may be changed.

[0083] The control unit 40 may independently control the operation of the first actuator 32 and the operation of the second actuator 33. The control unit 40 may control the operation of the first actuator 32 and the operation of the second actuator 33 according to the driving mode of the vehicle, which is automatically changed by a signal generated by a vehicle speed sensor of the vehicle. In addition, the control unit 40 may control the operation of the first actuator 32 and the operation of the second actuator 33 according to the driving mode of the vehicle selected by a manual operation of an occupant.

[0084] The control unit 40 may be electrically connected to the first actuator 32 , and may control the operation of the first actuator 32 so that the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 move in the front-rear direction of the vehicle.

[0085] The control unit 40 may be electrically connected to the second actuator 33 , and may change the tilt angle of the first spoiler 410 by controlling the operation of the second actuator 33 so that the first spoiler 410 is tilted in the up-and-down direction.

[0086] According to the second embodiment of the present disclosure, an operation process of the variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle configured as described above is described as follows.

[0087] refer to Figure 6 and Fig. 9 As an implementation example, when the vehicle is traveling below a first preset speed, the control unit 40 may control the operation of the first actuator 32 so that the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 are inserted into the rear body 31, and the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 therefore do not extend in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0088] As another implementation example, using a control signal generated in the vehicle's electronic control unit (ECU) according to the vehicle's driving mode selected by the occupant's manual operation, the control unit 40 can control the operation of the first actuator 32 so that the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 housed in the rear body 31 do not extend in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0089] refer to Figure 7 and Fig. 9As an implementation example, when the vehicle is traveling above a first preset speed but below a second preset speed, the control unit 40 may control the operation of the first actuator 32 so that the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 inserted into the rear body 31 are exposed to the outside from behind the rear body 31 and thus extend in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0090] As another implementation example, using a control signal generated in the vehicle's ECU according to the vehicle's driving mode selected by the occupant's manual operation, the control unit 40 can control the operation of the first actuator 32 so that the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 housed in the rear body 31 are exposed to the outside from the rear of the rear body 31 and thus extend in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle.

[0091] When the vehicle is traveling, the movement of the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 may redirect the flow of airflow formed behind the vehicle, allowing the vehicle to travel a greater distance.

[0092] refer to Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As an implementation example, when the vehicle is traveling at a second preset speed or higher than the second preset speed, or traveling in bad weather, the control unit 40 may control the operation of the second actuator 33 so that the inclination angle of the first spoiler 410 is greater than about 0 degrees.

[0093] As another implementation example, using a control signal generated in the vehicle's ECU according to the vehicle's driving mode selected by the occupant's manual operation, the control unit 40 can control the operation of the second actuator 33 so that the inclination angle of the first spoiler 410 in the up and down direction is greater than approximately 0 degrees.

[0094] When the vehicle is traveling at high speed or in extremely bad weather, the tilting operation of the first spoiler 410 can redirect the flow of airflow in a downward direction, thereby enhancing the grip of the tire on the road, improving stability when moving forward, and contributing to safe driving.

[0095] Fig.10 1 is a perspective view showing an extended state of a spoiler 400 of a variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle according to a third embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0096] refer to Fig.10 , the variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure may include a rear lamp 300 and a spoiler 400 .

[0098] The description of the constituent elements of the variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure may be applied to the constituent elements of the variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure except for the spoiler 400 .

[0099] The spoiler 400 may be formed of a transparent material. Light emitted by the rear lamp 300 disposed in the rear portion 30 of the vehicle may pass through the spoiler 400 extending in a direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle and then may be scattered. The transparent spoiler 400 may be used to refract light to focus or disperse the light.

[0100] The light emitted by the rear lamp 300 can produce a lighting effect through the spoiler 400 extending in the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle. The lighting effect can provide visual information to the driver of another vehicle or pedestrians.

[0101] In the variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle according to the first embodiment, the second embodiment and the third embodiment of the present disclosure, the rear lamp 100 extends in the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle to be positioned at a plurality of steps according to the driving speed of the vehicle. In addition, the spoiler 200 extends in the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle together with the rear lamp 100, and has an inclination angle that changes according to the driving speed in the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle. In this way, the rear lamp 100 and the spoiler 200 can minimize the air resistance generated behind the vehicle, thereby increasing the vehicle's drivable distance.

[0102] In the vehicle variable spoiler lighting device according to the first, second and third embodiments of the present disclosure, the tail lamp 100 moving in the front-rear direction of the vehicle according to the driving speed of the vehicle can provide visual information to the driver of another vehicle or pedestrians.

[0103] In the variable spoiler lighting device for a vehicle according to the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first spoiler 410 and the second spoiler 420 extending in the direction opposite to the forward direction of the vehicle can minimize the air resistance generated behind the vehicle. In addition, the first spoiler 410 whose inclination angle changes in the up-down direction can generate downforce when driving at high speed, thereby contributing to safe driving.

[0104] The embodiments of the present disclosure are described in an exemplary manner only with reference to the accompanying drawings. It is obvious to those skilled in the art that various modifications may be made to the embodiments and various equivalent replacements thereof may be implemented.
