Abstract
Light module for a vehicle headlamp, comprising: a reflector, a frame portion, a reflector adjustment device including a body portion and a projection, wherein the body portion is connected to the frame portion, a mounting plate including a first connection portion and a second connection portion, wherein the reflector is mounted to the first connection portion of the mounting plate, wherein the second connection portion is connected to the frame portion, the reflector may be tiltable relative to the second connection portion, the tilting being caused by linear movement of the projection along an axis, the housing, wherein the housing comprises an interface configured to engage with an adjustment tool, wherein the interface comprises means to engage with the protrusion of the reflector adjustment device to convert a torque acting on the interface into a linear force by the adjustment tool when the adjustment tool is engaged with the interface, wherein the linear force acts on the projection and moves the projection linearly along the axis.
Description
Technical Field
The utility model relates to a light module for vehicle headlamp, which comprises a reflector configured to reflect light in the direction of light beam; a frame portion of the light module; a reflector adjustment device comprising a body portion and a protrusion extending from the body portion towards the reflector, wherein the body portion is connected to the frame portion, wherein the reflector is pivotably connected to the protrusion, the protrusion being configured to move in a linear direction along an axis relative to the body portion of the reflector adjustment device; a mounting plate including a first connection portion and a second connection portion, wherein the reflector is mounted to the first connection portion of the mounting plate, wherein the second connection portion is connected to the frame portion of the light module, wherein the first connection portion is pivotably connected to the second connection portion, thereby allowing the reflector to tilt together with the first connection portion relative to the second connection portion, the tilting being caused by linear movement of the protrusion along the axis; and a housing, wherein the reflector, the reflector adjustment device, the mounting plate and the frame part are arranged inside the housing.
Background
A general light module for a vehicle headlamp is configured to change the direction of a light beam emitted by the light module by adjusting the position of the light module. To adjust the light module, the light module is usually tilted by means of a motor. This requires a powerful and energy consuming motor.
Disclosure of Invention
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a light module of the above-mentioned type which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art.
To achieve this object, a light module of the initially mentioned type is further developed according to the invention, further wherein the housing comprises an interface configured to engage with an adjustment tool, wherein the interface comprises means to engage with a protrusion of the adjustment device to convert a torque acting on the interface into a linear force by the adjustment tool when the adjustment tool is engaged with the interface, wherein the linear force acts on the protrusion and moves the protrusion linearly along the axis.
By having an interface according to the utility model discloses a reflector can be adjusted under the condition that does not change the position of whole light module.
Preferably, the first connecting portion and the second connecting portion of the mounting plate are connected to each other by a hinge. This makes the tilting of the first connection portion relative to the second connection portion simple and reliable.
Preferably, the first connection portion includes a circuit board having a light source. The light source may be configured to emit light onto the reflector, where the reflector may be configured to reflect the light onto the road.
The adjustment tool may be a screwdriver. Advantageously, the adjustment of the reflector can be performed without a motor. Therefore, the adjustment device is inexpensive.
Preferably, the adjustment of the reflector is a manual adjustment by the user. Manual adjustment reduces the cost of the adjustment device, since no electric motor and no control unit for said electric motor are required.
Drawings
In the following, for further explanation of the invention, exemplary and non-limiting embodiments are discussed, as illustrated in the accompanying drawings, which show:
fig. 1 is a first perspective view of a light module according to the utility model; and
fig. 2 is a second perspective view of the light module.
Detailed Description
Fig. 1 shows a light module 1 for a vehicle headlamp comprising a reflector 2 configured to reflect light in a beam direction. Fig. 2 shows the light module 1 from the rear. The light module 1 further comprises a frame part 3 and a reflector adjustment means 4. The reflector adjustment means 4 comprises a body part 5 and a protrusion 6 extending from the body part 5 towards the reflector 2, wherein the body part 5 is connected to the frame part 3. The reflector 2 is pivotably connected to a protrusion 6, wherein said protrusion 6 is configured to move in a linear direction along an axis X with respect to the body portion 5 of the reflector adjustment apparatus 4. The light module 1 comprises a mounting plate 7 comprising a first connection portion 8 and a second connection portion 9, wherein the reflector 2 is mounted to the first connection portion 8 of the mounting plate 7. The second connection portion 9 is connected to the frame portion 3 of the light module 1, wherein the first connection portion 8 is pivotably connected to the second connection portion 9, thereby allowing the reflector 2 together with the first connection portion 8 to tilt relative to the second connection portion 9, said tilting being caused by a linear movement of the protrusion 6 along the axis X. The light module 1 further comprises a housing (not shown), wherein the reflector 2, the reflector adjustment device 4, the mounting plate 7 and the frame part 3 are arranged inside the housing. The housing comprises an interface 11 (for simplicity, only the interface is shown in fig. 1 and 2, and the housing is not shown) configured to engage with an adjustment means, wherein the interface 11 comprises means to engage with the protrusion 6 of the reflector adjustment device 4 to convert a torque acting on the interface 11 by the adjustment means into a linear force when the adjustment means engages with the interface 11, wherein the linear force acts on the protrusion 6 and moves the protrusion 6 linearly along the axis X.
