Definitions

  • the invention relates to a light module for a motor vehicle as from the generic document EP 1 225 388 known.
  • the invention relates to a vehicle headlight with at least one such light module.
  • the light module according to the invention is a projection system in which light from a light source is focused by a primary optics in the form of a reflector and directed onto a (projection) lens, which projects the desired light image onto an area in front of the light module or vehicle ,
  • the reflector In contrast to a classic structure in which a real intermediate image is generated by the reflector, in the present invention, the reflector generates a virtual intermediate image of the light source, which then imaged by the lens in the form of a converging lens in the area in front of the light module or vehicle becomes.
  • the reflector is designed as a hyperbolic reflector or essentially has the behavior of a hyperbolic reflector.
  • the reflector in a first variant of the invention, provision is made for the reflector to be formed essentially as a reflector subshell, for example as a reflector half shell, to form the at least one light-dark line in the light image, and light from a region of the boundary edge of the reflector Reflector part shell forms the light distribution on the light-dark line in the photograph.
  • the edge of the reflector acts as a hatch between the virtual object and the lens.
  • portions of the reflector that are farther away from the lens have more of the character of a field of view diaphragm, a change of these areas also changes the imaged image section and accordingly these areas can be used to form the light image.
  • the upper regions of the reflector can be trimmed in order to reduce the intensity of the light distribution in advance, while the trimming at the lower edge of the shape the light distribution on the HD line can be varied.
  • the reflector sub-shell in the installation position of the light module is open at the bottom, so that there is a light-dark line in the overhead light.
  • the boundary edge of the reflector partial shell extends substantially above a plane in which the at least one light source lies.
  • the light-dark line in the photograph can be lowered, for example, by 0.57 ° (ECE control) or 0.4 ° (SAE control), as required for a law-compliant low beam distribution.
  • the boundary edge is bent towards the front, to the front reflector opening towards the top.
  • Curved "upwards” means primarily that the boundary edge of the plane in which the light source is located, bent away.
  • the light source is inclined to a horizontal plane and the boundary edge is basically parallel to the inclined light source. The effect can occur that in an outer edge region of the light distribution, the light distribution is bent upward, so that light reaches an area above the legally permitted areas.
  • the at least one light source has an elongated configuration, and that the light source is arranged with respect to the reflector that in the light image that of the reflective Surface of the reflector generated helical images are substantially parallel to the cut-off in the light image, since the extent of the blur is directly proportional to the size of a helical image, measured across the cut-off line.
  • the longitudinal axis of the light source thus runs substantially parallel to the light-dark boundary to be generated, wherein an inclination of a few degrees with respect to the light-dark boundary may well be visually meaningful.
  • such a light source has a significantly longer longitudinal than transverse extent, for example, it is a light source of a plurality of light emitting diodes, e.g. in a (1 x n) arrangement in which n LEDs are arranged in a row, the light source thus has a width of one LED and a length of n LEDs.
  • elongated light sources are the arc of a Xe torch or the filament of an incandescent lamp.
  • the at least one light source has a plane light exit surface, the light exit surface facing the reflective surface of the reflector.
  • the light-emitting surface of the at least one light source is preferably substantially planar and wherein the boundary edge of the reflector forming the light-dark boundary is arranged in a region, in which the light-emitting surface of the at least one light source is shortened in perspective.
  • This latter measure can be realized independently or together with the above-mentioned elongated embodiment of the light source.
  • the reflector generates one or more light-dark boundaries in the light image by the reflector acts as a real aperture, so the boundary edge (s) of the reflector in the light image as light-dark boundaries (or areas of maximum brightness) be imaged.
  • the reflecting surface of the reflector is embodied such that light from the at least one light source, which is reflected along at least one defined curve on the reflecting surface, is imaged in the light image as a region with maximum brightness.
  • the generation of one or more light-dark boundaries with a reflector is based on the effect of the so-called caustics, so that one or more fundamentally arbitrarily shaped light-dark boundaries can be generated without the use of diaphragms.
  • the at least one defined curve on the reflecting surface is displayed in the light image as a caustic line, ie as a line with maximum brightness, on one side (eg below this line) the brightness decreases, on the other side (eg above the line) no or hardly any light shown.
  • the reflective surface of the reflector is formed such that light from both sides of the at least one defined curve on the reflective surface in the light image on one side of the area with maximum brightness, is subsequently imaged on this area.
  • Such a reflector according to the invention can be varied flexibly, for example in order to make it smaller with regard to the installation space.
  • this reflector is substantially parallel to the defined curve on the reflecting surface, which is imaged in the light image as an area with maximum brightness, on at least one side the defined curve is cropped.
  • this reflector is trimmed substantially normal to the defined curve on the reflecting surface, which is imaged in the light image as a region with maximum brightness ,
  • a designed as a real aperture reflector is provided with one or more defined curves which produce a Kaustikline, resulting in a variety of design options with regard to the generation of the light image.
  • a light module according to the invention has the particular advantage that the total depth of the light module is no longer determined by the sum of the focal lengths of primary optics (reflector) and secondary optics (lens), but by the difference of the two focal lengths and thus can be greatly reduced theoretically. Even if practical limitations (finite size of the light source, manufacturing tolerances, etc.) are given, and thus the reduction of the installation depth limits are set, in a light module or headlight according to the invention the construction volume can be significantly lower than in conventional, known systems.
  • the focal length per se is a quasi-free design parameter that can be used to improve the light image.
  • the total refractive power is distributed to reflector and lens.
  • the cross section of the lens is comparable to a classical projection system with a real intermediate image and otherwise similar characteristics, so that the required numerical aperture of the lens decreases. Since chromatic aberration occurs only in refraction, but not in reflection, can be achieved by the fact that a part of the refractive power is taken over by the reflector, already an improvement in color fidelity.
  • the lens can be designed as achromatic, which is also useful for correcting chromatic aberrations.
  • classical projection lenses with very large numerical aperture it is not possible to perform the lens as achromats.
  • FIG. 1 schematically shows a light module 1 for a motor vehicle, comprising a light source 1, a reflector 2 and a lens.
  • the reflecting surface 2a of the reflector 2 is shaped in such a way that a first focal point F1 of the reflector 2 lies between the reflecting surface 2a and the lens 3.
  • a second focal point F2 lies on the side of the reflector 2 facing away from the lens 3, ie behind the reflector.
  • the light emitted by the light source 1 is formed by the reflective surface 2a of the reflector 2 to a light distribution and - in the installed state of the light module 1 in a vehicle - is imaged via the lens 3 in an area in front of the vehicle.
  • the light module 1 In the light module 1 according to the invention (and also in all other modules or systems shown) is a projection system in which light from a light source by a primary optics in the form of a reflector is focused and directed to a (projection) lens, which the desired light image is projected onto an area in front of the light module or vehicle.
  • the reflector 2 In contrast to a classical construction in which a real intermediate image is generated by the reflector, in the present invention the reflector 2 generates a virtual intermediate image of the light source, which essentially comes to lie in the rear focal point F2 of the reflector 2, and becomes this intermediate image then imaged by the lens 3 in the form of a converging lens in the area in front of the light module or vehicle.
  • the reflector is designed as a hyperbolic reflector or essentially has the behavior of a hyperbolic reflector, and the focal point of the lens 3 lies substantially in the rear focal point F2 of the reflector 2.
  • FIG. 1 If you look at FIG. 1 , so you can see the areas bounded by arrows areas of the reflector 2. Cuts one in FIG. 1 illustrated reflector 2 above the area indicated by the arrow above and below the area marked with the arrow below, so only the two rays S1, S2 and intervening rays appear as the boundary rays from the reflector 2 and are imaged by the lens 3 ,
  • Fundamentally inventive feature in a present light module is that the reflective surface of the reflector is formed such that the generated light image has at least one light-dark line.
  • the edge of the reflector acts as a hatch between the virtual object and the lens.
  • portions of the reflector that are farther away from the lens have more of the character of a field of view diaphragm, a change of these areas also changes the imaged image section and accordingly these areas can be used to form the light image.
  • the upper regions of the reflector are trimmed to reduce the intensity of the light distribution in advance, while the trimming at the lower edge, the shape of the light distribution on the HD line varies can be.
