For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0028] The lens module, vehicle lamp and vehicle in the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0029] In the prior art, a light source is used to form low beam light pattern and high beam light pattern, and a light shield plate is used to form the bright-dark cutoff line of low beam, so that the low beam area and the high beam area are completely separated and have no overlapping part, and the road lighting performance of the vehicle lamp is poor.
[0030] To solve the above technical problems, the embodiment of the present application provides a lens module having a preset direction, the lens module comprising a first lens, a second lens and a light source; the first lens has a low beam part and a high beam part, the low beam part and the high beam part are arranged along the preset direction; the second lens is arranged on the light-incident side of the low beam part; the light source is arranged in two groups along the preset direction, and the light source is arranged on the side of the second lens away from the first lens; wherein the light emitted by one group of the light source is refracted through the high beam part to form a high beam light shape on the side of the high beam part away from the second lens; the light emitted by the other group of the light source is sequentially refracted through the second lens and the low beam part to form a low beam light shape on the side of the low beam part away from the second lens.
[0031] By arranging two groups of different light sources, and the two groups of light sources are respectively used to form a low beam light shape and a high beam light shape, a common light source is not needed, that is, a light shield plate is not needed to realize the conversion of the low beam and the high beam, and when the high beam is used, it can be ensured that there is also part of energy below the cutoff line, thereby effectively improving the road lighting effect. Details are described below.
[0032] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3 In an embodiment, the lens module has a preset direction, and the lens module comprises a first lens 10, a second lens 20 and a light source; the first lens 10 has a low beam part 11 and a high beam part 12, the low beam part 11 and the high beam part 12 are arranged along the preset direction; the second lens 20 is arranged on the light-incident side of the low beam part 11; the light source is arranged in two groups along the preset direction, and the light source is arranged on the side of the second lens 20 away from the first lens 10; wherein the light emitted by one group of the light source is refracted through the high beam part 12 to form a high beam light shape on the side of the high beam part 12 away from the second lens 20; the light emitted by the other group of the light source is sequentially refracted through the second lens 20 and the low beam part 11 to form a low beam light shape on the side of the low beam part 11 away from the second lens 20.
[0033] By arranging two groups of different light sources, and the two groups of light sources are respectively used to form a low beam light shape and a high beam light shape, a common light source is not needed, that is, a light shield plate is not needed to realize the conversion of the low beam and the high beam, and when the high beam is used, it can be ensured that there is also part of energy below the cutoff line, thereby effectively improving the road lighting effect (as shown in Figure 5 The cutoff line is a bright-dark cutoff line formed by the light shield plate when the low beam is formed, and the low beam area 30 and the high beam area 40 are completely separated by the cutoff line, as shown in Figure 4 In the prior art, the cutoff line is formed by the light shield plate, and there is no lighting effect below the high beam area 40, which is not conducive to the road lighting effect of the vehicle lamp.
[0034] It should be noted that the preset direction can be any direction, and in the embodiment, the preset direction is Figure 1In the longitudinal direction of the viewing angle, the low beam 11 is arranged below the high beam 12; accordingly, two groups of light sources are provided above and below. In actual production, the specific position of the light source can be determined according to the headlight lighting requirements and the vehicle styling design. The two groups of light sources set separately can be better arranged.
[0035] See Figure 2 In some embodiments, the low beam area 30 is arranged above the high beam area 40 and is adjusted accordingly according to actual lighting requirements and vehicle styling design.
[0036] See Figure 1 In one embodiment, the second lens 20 has a first light incident surface 21 and a first light emitting surface 22 that are disposed opposite to each other. The first light emitting surface 22 is disposed between the first light incident surface 21 and the first lens 10. The first light emitting surface 22 is a curved surface convex toward the first lens 10, and the first light incident surface 21 is a curved surface connected by multiple first cylindrical surfaces 211 (such as Figure 3 in the direction from the high beam portion 12 toward the low beam portion 11, the thickness of the second lens 20 gradually increases, that is, the second lens 20 is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom.
[0037] It should be noted that the busbar of the first cylindrical surface 211 is parallel to a preset direction, which is a vertical direction in this embodiment. The first light-emitting surface 22 is a curved surface, and the opening of the curved surface is facing the lower right. Such a setting can ensure that the low beam focus 31 is as far away from the high beam focus 41 as possible (the low beam focus 31 is located below the high beam focus 41, and the low beam light source is close to the bottom of the low beam area 30), providing sufficient installation space for light sources (such as lamp beads, reflectors and other components) used to form low beam light shapes and high beam light shapes, while avoiding mutual interference between the two groups of light sources, effectively improving the lighting effect of the car lights.
[0038] See Figure 1 In one embodiment, the high beam portion 12 has a second light incident surface 121 and a second light emitting surface 122 disposed opposite to each other. The second light incident surface 121 is disposed between the second light emitting surface 122 and the light source for forming the high beam light shape; the second light incident surface 121 is a curved surface (such as Figure 3 As shown), in the direction from the second lens 20 toward the low beam portion 11, the distance between the end of the generatrix of the second cylindrical surface 1211 close to the low beam portion 11 and the second lens 20 is greater than the distance between the end of the generatrix of the second cylindrical surface 1211 away from the low beam portion 11 and the second lens 20, that is, the generatrix of the second cylindrical surface 1211 is inclined to the right.
[0039] The inclined arrangement of the generatrix of the second cylindrical surface 1211 ensures that the high beam focal point 41 is as far away from the low beam focal point 31 (the high beam focal point 41 is close to the upper side of the high beam area 40) as possible, provides sufficient installation space for the light sources used to form the low beam light pattern and the high beam light pattern, and can avoid mutual interference between the two groups of light sources, thereby effectively improving the illumination effect of the vehicle lamp.
[0040] Referring to Figure 1 In an embodiment, the included angle between the generatrix of the two cylindrical surfaces and the intersection surface of the low beam part 11 and the high beam part 12 is α, which satisfies 60°≤α≤80°, for example, 60°, 70°, 80°, etc. When the value range of α is less than 60°, the included angle between the low beam part 11 and the high beam part 12 is too small, which may cause the high beam part 12 to be damaged during the demolding of the first lens 10 and increase the difficulty of demolding. When the value range of α is greater than 80°, it is not conducive to the arrangement of the high beam focal point 41 position, which affects the illumination effect. Within this value range, the first lens 10 can be conveniently demolded while ensuring better illumination effect. The high beam focal point 41 has a moderate height, which does not occupy too much longitudinal space for the light source, is conducive to the arrangement of other components of the vehicle lamp, facilitates the flat design of the vehicle lamp, and can meet the diversified needs of modeling design.
[0041] Referring to Figure 1 In an embodiment, the low beam part 11 has a third light-incident surface 111 and a third light-emitting surface 112 arranged opposite to each other, and the third light-incident surface 111 is arranged between the third light-emitting surface 112 and the second lens 20. The third light-emitting surface 112 is connected with the second light-emitting surface 122 to form a smooth curved surface, i.e., the left side of the first lens 10 is a smooth curved surface.
[0042] Such an arrangement is conducive to the propagation of light and has better illumination effect. The connection of the smooth curved surface facilitates the demolding of the first lens 10 as a whole, improves the production efficiency, avoids damage during demolding of the first lens 10, improves the yield, and reduces the production cost. In addition, the smooth curved surface on the left side of the first lens 10 is an outward convex curved surface in this embodiment. In some embodiments, it can also be a curved surface of another form, which is more suitable for the specific modeling design of the vehicle lamp, and is not limited thereto.
[0043] In some embodiments, the third light-incident surface 111 is a plane, and the preset direction is parallel to the third light-incident surface 111. The third light-incident surface 111 arranged in a plane is conducive to mold processing and forming, improves the production efficiency, and is conducive to the demolding of the first lens 10.

[0045] On the other hand, the present application also relates to a vehicle comprising the vehicle lamp described above.
[0046] By adopting the technical scheme provided in the embodiments of the present application, two groups of different light sources are arranged, and the two groups of light sources are respectively used to form the low beam light shape and the high beam light shape, so that one light source does not need to be shared, that is, the light shield plate is not needed to realize the conversion between the low beam and the high beam, and when the high beam is used, it can be ensured that there is also part of energy below the cut-off line, so that the road lighting effect is effectively improved.
