For ordinary skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0030] The utility model discloses an optical system suitable for corner fog lamp low beam widening function and car lamp.
[0031] Referring to Figure 1 An optical system suitable for corner fog lamp low beam widening function, the optical system is composed of at least one light source 1, at least one imaging unit 2 and refractive unit 3, and the imaging unit 2 can be a lens or a mirror; the light source 1, the imaging unit 2 and the refractive unit 3 are sequentially arranged along the light-emitting positive direction.
[0032] In the following embodiment, the imaging unit 2 is a lens:
[0033] Embodiment 1:
[0034] Referring to Figure 2, the light source 1 is located at the focal point of the lens, and the light emitting center of the light source 1 deviates from the optical axis of the lens in the vertical direction by a certain distance. In the vertical plane, the lens receives light from the light source 1; in the horizontal plane, the light emitted by the light source 1 is collimated into approximately parallel light after passing through the lens; the light passing through the lens is refracted by the refractive unit 3 and exits.
[0035] The light entrance and / or light exit of the refractive unit 3 has vertical stripes, which are used to increase the angle of light projection in the horizontal direction and improve the uniformity of light distribution in the horizontal direction.
[0036] Since the light emitting center of the light source 1 deviates from the optical axis of the lens in the vertical direction, and preferably upward, most of the final light pattern can irradiate to the ground, i.e. below the horizontal line, and can form a horizontal bright-dark cutoff line, which is mainly caused by the light emitting boundary of the light source 1.
[0037] It should be noted that in the optical system, the lens corresponds to the light source 1 one by one, or multiple single-core light sources 1 correspond to a single lens, or a single multi-core light source 1 corresponds to a single lens.
[0038] The refractive unit 3 is an optical unit with vertical stripes on the light entrance and / or light exit, and the refractive unit 3 has the function of expanding the horizontal projection angle of light from the imaging unit 2. Along the light emitting direction of the light source 1, at least one refractive unit 3 can be placed. When multiple refractive units 3 are placed, the vertical stripes on the surface of each refractive unit 3 can be consistent or inconsistent in the degree of diffusion in the horizontal direction.
[0039] In addition, the refractive unit 3 can be an optical unit with a certain thickness, or it can be a film with the functions of the above-mentioned refractive unit 3, but it is very thin, and the commonly used specifications can be 0.25, 0.5, 0.75 mm, and the vertical stripes can not be clearly visible to the naked eye.
[0040] Embodiment 2:
[0041] The difference from embodiment 1 is that the light entrance and / or light exit of the lens has vertical stripes, which are used to increase the angle of light passing through the lens in the horizontal direction, and to improve the uniformity of light projection in the horizontal direction.
[0042] Referring to Figure 3 and Figure 4 It should be noted that the shape of the vertical stripes can be concave-convex, all convex or all concave (curved vertical stripes); another shape of the vertical stripes can be formed by the intersection of two lines, which are vertical planes spaced a certain distance apart and the light entrance and / or light exit of the lens (multi-segment vertical stripes).
[0043] Example 3:
[0044] Referring to Figure 5 On the basis of Example 1, an optical unit 4 with a cut-off line shape is placed near the light source 1 to make the final projection light pattern have a cut-off line shape, which is particularly needed for the high beam widening function.
[0045] Example 4:
[0046] The difference from Example 3 is that the light source 1 is offset from the lens focal point by a certain distance in the vertical plane, and the optical unit 4 with a cut-off line shape is placed at the focal point of the lens.
[0047] Example 5:
[0048] Referring to Figure 6 The optical system can be composed of at least one group of this structure, with the light source 1 and the corresponding lens as a group; the focal point positions and focal lengths of the lenses in each group can be the same or different.
[0049] Example 6:
[0050] The difference from Example 1 is that the lens unit itself has the function of diffusing the refractive angle of light (this function does not need to be achieved by attaching vertical stripes to the entrance and exit light surfaces), which can be achieved by setting the diffusion angle of the lens in the optical design software to change the lens surface shape.
[0051] In the following examples, the imaging unit 2 is a mirror, which can be equivalent to the lens in the above examples, i.e., the above examples also apply to mirrors:
[0052] Example 7:
[0053] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The surface of a single mirror can be a complete surface or have vertical patterns; the patterns can be arc-shaped patterns, with consistent or inconsistent diffusion degrees for each arc-shaped pattern; each mirror can also be formed by splicing multiple reflective surfaces.
[0054] Example 8:
[0055] Referring to Figure 9 The light-emitting center of the light source 1 can be located at the focal point of the mirror or offset from the focal point of the mirror and placed in the negative direction of the mirror light exit.
[0056] Example 9: The focal lengths of each mirror are the same or different; each mirror can correspond to a single-core light source 1 or a multi-core light source 1.
[0057] With the above ideal embodiment of the present application as the inspiration, through the above description, relevant staff can make various changes and modifications without deviating from the technical idea of the present application. The technical scope of the present application is not limited to the content of the specification, and the technical scope must be determined according to the scope of claims.
