Definitions
- the elliptical reflector is thereby placed such that the corresponding optical axis of the elliptical reflector is coaxial with said imaged axis and that the focal point of the elliptical reflector coincides with the imaged focal point of the projection lens.
- the semiconductor light source for example LED and the like
- the semiconductor light source is lighted to emit light, and thus the light from the semiconductor light source, for example LED and the like, is reflected by the ellipse reflect surface, and, as a predetermined distributed light pattern, is projected (illuminates, emits, or is given off) outwardly in the predetermined direction from the projection lens.
- the existing lamp unit for vehicles mentioned above do not take into consideration the method of preventing the light, except the predetermined distributed light pattern projected from the projection lens, from emitting from the projection lens, and therefore, there exists the circumstance where the light except the predetermined distributed light pattern projected from the projection lens, i.e. the light not distributed, emits from the projection lens.
- the existing lamp unit for vehicles mentioned above do not take into consideration the method of the effective use of the light from semiconductor light source, and therefore, the existing lamp unit for vehicles mentioned above do not effectively use the light from semiconductor light source.
- the present invention is characterized in that a planar reflect surface is arranged between a projection lens and its focus in such a way that the planar reflect surface intersects the light axis of the projection lens; a light shutout member for shutting out the straight light from a semiconductor light source from illuminating toward the projection lens, is arranged between the semiconductor light source and the projection lens; supplemental reflect surface is arranged on the light shutout member for reflecting the light from the semiconductor light source toward the side of the shade.
- the second reflector 3 is formed of the vertical board with a semicircle opening at its upper part and a recess 11 at its lower part.
- a second reflect surface 12 is provided along the plane or roughly a plane of the light axis Z2-Z2 of the first reflect surface 9 by way of aluminum steam plating or silver coating.
- the second reflect surface 12 is arranged between the second focus F2 of the first reflect surface 9 (i.e. the second focus F2 or its vicinity) and the semiconductor light source 4.
- a screw hole 13 for screw to fix the fixing member (or a through hole for screw to fix the fixing member) is arranged at each of the four corners of the vertical board of the second reflector 3.
- the shade 5 and the second reflector 3 are arranged integratedly, that is, the shade 5 is concurrently used as the vertical board of the second reflector 3, as a result of which, the second reflect surface 12 is arranged on the shade 5. Furthermore, the shade 5 and the second reflector 3 can be arranged separately and then integrated by a fixing member.
- the shade 5 is arranged between the second focus F2 (i.e. the second focus F2 or its vicinity) of the first reflect surface 9 and the semiconductor light source 4. In the part of the second focus F2 (i.e. the second focus F2 or its vicinity) of the first reflect surface 9 in the shade 5, a edge 16 is arranged along the second focus (the second focus line) F2 of the first reflect surface 9.
- the shade 5 cuts off a portion of the reflected light 14 emitting from the semiconductor light source 4 and reflected by the first reflect surface 9 and uses the remaining reflected light to form a predetermined distributed light pattern P having cutoff lines CL, such as the distributed light pattern for interleaving, the distributed light pattern for high way, etc (see Fig.4 ).
- the edge 16 of the shade 5 forms the cutoff lines CL of the distributed light pattern P and elbow E.
- the second reflect surface 12 reflects the reflected light L4 cut off by the shade 5 acting as a reflected light L9 toward the predetermined direction, i.e. one side of the planar reflect surface 7, and forms the secondary distributed light pattern (not shown).
- the horizontal lens light axis Z1-Z1 of the projection lens 6 exists as a vertical fictitious lens light axis Z3-Z3 intersecting the horizontal lens light axis Z1-Z1 orthogonally by way of the planar reflect surface 7.
- the fictitious lens light axis (Z3-Z3) is the image of the lens light axis (Z1-Z1) generated by the planar reflect surface 7.
- the vertical fictitious lens light axis Z3-Z3 is consistent or roughly consistent with the light axis Z2-Z2 of the first reflect surface 9.
- the light shutout member 8 is arranged in the predetermined range from one side of the projection lens 6 to one side of the planar reflect surface 7, the straight light L6 from the semiconductor light source 4, the reflected light L7 from the second reflect surface 12, and the reflected light L8 from the second supplemental reflect surface 23 (25-27) can be shut out from illuminating toward the projection lens 6, and the reflected light L4 from the first surface 9, the reflected light L9 from the second reflect surface 12, and the reflected light L12, L14, L16 from the second supplemental reflect surface 23 (25-27) can illuminate toward the planar reflect surface 7, and the reflected light L10, L19 from the planar reflect surface 7 can illuminate toward the projection lens 6.
- the first supplemental reflect surfaces 17-21 comprise five reflect surfaces and the second supplemental reflect surfaces 23 (25-27) comprise three reflect surfaces, it is possible to design the five distributed light pattern P1-P2 to be the expected secondary distributed light pattern, for example, the distributed light pattern with high brightness and the distributed light pattern for a overhead sign.
