Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Lichtmodul (1) einer Kraftfahrzeugbeleuchtungseinrichtung. Das Lichtmodul (1) umfasst mindestens zwei Lichtquellen (2, 3, 4) zum Aussenden von Licht und mindestens zwei den Lichtquellen (2, 3, 4) zugeordnete Primäroptiken (8; 15, 16; 17, 18) zum Bündeln des ausgesandten Lichts. Ferner umfasst das Lichtmodul (1) eine gemeinsame Sekundäroptik (7) zum Abbilden der Lichtbündel auf einer Fahrbahn vor dem Kraftfahrzeug und zur Erzeugung einer resultierenden Gesamtlichtverteilung des Lichtmoduls (1). Um die Flexibilität und die Effizienz des Lichtmoduls (1) zu verbessern, wird vorgeschlagen, dass mindestens eine der Lichtquellen (2) zur Realisierung einer Hauptlichtverteilung und mindestens eine andere der Lichtquellen (3; 4) zur Realisierung einer Nebenlichtverteilung ausgestaltet ist und dass die der Lichtquelle (3; 4) zur Realisierung der Nebenlichtverteilung zugeordnete Primäroptik (15, 16; 17, 18) mehrteilig ausgebildet ist, wobei eine erste Teil-Primäroptik (15; 17) neben der der Lichtquelle (2) zur Realisierung der Hauptlichtverteilung zugeordneten Primäroptik (8) angeordnet ist.

The invention relates to a light module (1) of a motor vehicle lighting device. The light module (1) comprises at least two light sources (2, 3, 4) for emitting light and at least two primary optics (8, 15, 16, 17, 18) associated with the light sources (2, 3, 4) for bundling the emitted light , Furthermore, the light module (1) comprises a common secondary optics (7) for imaging the light bundles on a roadway in front of the motor vehicle and for generating a resulting total light distribution of the light module (1). In order to improve the flexibility and efficiency of the light module (1), it is proposed that at least one of the light sources (2) for realizing a main light distribution and at least one other of the light sources (3; 4) is designed to realize a secondary light distribution and that the The primary optics (15, 16, 17, 18) assigned to the secondary light distribution are designed in several parts, a first partial primary optics (15, 17) being adjacent to the primary optics (FIG. 8) is arranged.
