Abstract

Ce projecteur pour véhicule automobile comprenant un réflecteur dans lequel sont disposés une source lumineuse produisant un faisceau lumineux et des moyens de déformation du faisceau lumineux, lesdits moyens de déformation comprenant :
- une barrette de coupure (12) rotative pouvant se déplacer entre au moins une première position dans laquelle elle n'intercepte pas le faisceau lumineux et une deuxième position dans laquelle elle intercepte au moins une partie du faisceau lumineux ; et
- un actionneur électrique de la barrette de coupure (12) comprenant un moteur électrique (20) et un détecteur de la position angulaire de la barrette, à l'aide d'un capteur (26),

est caractérisé par le fait que le moteur (20) et capteur (26) sont montés sur un unique support de circuit électronique (30).

This motor vehicle headlamp comprising a reflector in which are disposed a light source producing a light beam and means for deformation of the light beam, said deformation means comprising:
a rotary cut-off bar (12) able to move between at least a first position in which it does not intercept the light beam and a second position in which it intercepts at least a portion of the light beam; and
an electric actuator of the cutoff bar (12) comprising an electric motor (20) and a detector of the angular position of the bar, with the aid of a sensor (26),

is characterized in that the motor (20) and sensor (26) are mounted on a single electronic circuit support (30).
