AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Existing lighting devices face alignment issues between optical components and light sources due to cost-reduction constraints, leading to degraded performance from positional misalignment when integrated into vehicle mounts made of deformable materials.

Method used

A support system with a polygonal frame and elastic adjuster, featuring complementary attachments and curved slats, ensures precise alignment and stability of optical components relative to light sources by allowing frame deformation during vehicle mounting.

🎯Benefits of technology

Facilitates mounting and adjustment of lighting devices without degrading performance, providing stable alignment and reduced production costs through integrated elastic adjusters.

Abstract

The present invention relates to a support (1) for a lighting device for a motor vehicle, the device, the vehicle, and a method for manufacturing the support (1), the support having a general polygonal frame shape which comprises at least four sides and is capable of receiving at least one lighting device, the support being characterised in that it includes an elastic adjuster (10) allowing the elongation or shortening of the first side, such that when the support (1) is adjusted on a vehicle by its fasteners (11), an elastic deformation of the frame, parallel to an axis (A) passing through the two light sources (30), makes it possible to maintain the relevant position of the optical components (2) with respect to the light sources (30).
