Fig. 1 to Fig. 4 schematically show alight source module 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. Thelight source module 100 comprises: alight source unit 10, anoptical element 20 and abracket 30. Theoptical element 20 is arranged in an optical path of alight 60 emitted from thelight source unit 10 and arranged to deviate thelight 60 emitted from thelight source unit 10. Thelight source unit 10 and theoptical element 20 are mounted on thebracket 30. Thebracket 30 has at least one pair of fitting portions, and each pair of fitting portions comprises afirst fitting portion 31 and asecond fitting portion 32. Thefirst fitting portion 31 and thesecond fitting portion 32 have shapes matched with each other, for example, have complementary shapes. - In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the
optical element 20 may for example be a lens arranged to collimate a light, or may be another optical deflection element, such as a light reflector, a light shaping element, a light deflector or the like. - The
first fitting portion 31 and thesecond fitting portion 32 have shapes matched with each other, thus, when a plurality of light source modules are used in combination, thefirst fitting portion 31 of one light source module may be fitted to thesecond fitting portion 32 of another light source module so as to assemble the two light source modules. In a similar manner, thebracket 30 may be used to assemble manylight source modules 100 into an entirety. In this way, the plurality oflight source modules 100 may be flexibly assembled into alight source assembly 200 with various shapes, for example, the plurality oflight source modules 100 may be assembled into a square form (seeFig. 6 ), a bow-shaped form (seeFig. 7 ), a strip form (seeFig. 8 ) or a diagonal form, etc. Such diversified shapes of thelight source assembly 200 may be used to satisfy various customized demands from the users. By means of the above structure of thebracket 30, it may prevent any additional structures for fixing frames from being provided in thelight source assembly 200, so as to simplify the structures and to improve convenience of assembling the light source modules. - In addition, because each of the light source modules has the
first fitting portion 31 and thesecond fitting portion 32, respective light source modules may be assembled arbitrarily and thebracket 30 is easy to be produced in normalized mode. - It should be noted that the
light source module 100 may have a plurality of pairs of thefirst fitting portion 31 and thesecond fitting portion 32, so as to provide more selections when the plurality oflight source modules 100 are assembled together. In an example, as shown inFig. 1 andFig. 4 , two first fitting portions are provided side by side on one side (the left side inFig. 4 ) of thelight source module 100 and two second fitting portions are provided side by side on the other side (the right side inFig. 4 ) of thelight source module 100. This may allow two adjacentlight source modules 100 to be positioned at different height levels after they are assembled together. For example, when two light source modules are assembled by thefirst fitting portion 31 at the middle position on the left side of onelight source module 100 and thesecond fitting portion 32 at the middle position on the right side of the otherlight source module 100, the two light source modules are positioned substantially at the same height (seeFig. 8 ). When two light source modules are assembled by thefirst fitting portion 31 at the lower position on the left side of onelight source module 100 and thesecond fitting portion 32 at the upper position on the right side of the otherlight source module 100, the height levels at which the two light source modules are positioned have a significant difference (seeFig. 7 ). - In an example, the
bracket 30 may further have at least onethird fitting portion 33 which is shaped to match with at least onefirst fitting portion 31. It means that, when a plurality oflight source modules 100 are assembled, thefirst fitting portion 31 not only may be fitted to thesecond fitting portion 32, but also may be fitted to thethird fitting portion 33. This may further improve flexibility of assembling the light source modules. - In an example, the
light source unit 10 comprises alight emitting element 11, a printedcircuit board 12 and aheat sink 13. The printedcircuit board 12 bears thelight emitting element 11. The printedcircuit board 12 is mounted on theheat sink 13. For example, thelight emitting element 11 may be a light emitting device such as a light emitting diode. As an example, thelight source unit 10 may be fixed onto thebracket 30 by theheat sink 13. - As an example, the
light source module 100 may further comprise alight reflector 40. Thelight reflector 40 is mounted on theheat sink 13 or thebracket 30. Thelight reflector 40, such as a curved surface reflector (for example, a parabolic reflector, a hyperboloidal reflector, an ellipsoidal reflector, or the like), may be arranged to reflect the light 60 emitted from thelight source unit 10 towards theoptical element 20. - In an example, one of the first
fitting portion 31 and the secondfitting portion 32 is a rib, while the other of them is a groove. As shown inFig. 1 andFig. 4 , by means of the rib and the groove cooperating with each other, the firstfitting portion 31 of one light source module may be engaged stably with the secondfitting portion 32 of the other light source module to enhance the assembling stability. For example, a stop may be arranged at an end of the groove (for example, the end of the secondfitting portion 32 close to the optical element shown inFig. 1 ), so as to prevent the rib from sliding out from the end of the groove when the rib is fitted to the groove. - As an example, all of components in the
optical module 100 may be mounted onto thebracket 30, so as to reduce the tolerance chain and to enhance the assembling accuracy. - In an example, one of the first
fitting portion 31 and the secondfitting portion 32 may be provided with afirst positioning structure 51, and the other of them may be provided with asecond positioning structure 52 which is shaped to be matched with thefirst positioning structure 51. Such arrangement of thefirst positioning structure 51 and thesecond positioning structure 52 may improve the relative positioning of the light source modules. -
Fig. 5 shows examples of thefirst positioning structure 51 and thesecond positioning structure 52. In the examples, thefirst positioning structure 51 is a retractable engaginghead 53 and thesecond positioning structure 52 is an engaging recess or engaginghole 54. The retractable engaginghead 53 may have an extension position and a retracted position. In the extension position, the shape of the retractable engaginghead 53 is matched to the shape of the engaging recess or engaginghole 54 such that the retractable engaginghead 53 is engaged in the engaging recess or engaginghole 54 to keep constant positions of the adjacent optical modules. In the retracted position, the retractable engaginghead 53 is disengaged from the engaging recess or engaginghole 54 such that the adjacent optical modules can move with respect to each other. - As an example, the retractable engaging
head 53 may be formed by aspring 55 and apressing ball 56. By means of elastic force effects of thespring 55, thepressing ball 56 may move between the extension position and the retracted position. When thespring 55 is pressed to retract, thepressing ball 56 will be located at the retracted position and the adjacent optical modules may move with respect to each other to adjust relative positions thereamong. When the position of thepressing ball 56 is aligned with the position of the engaging recess or the engaginghole 54, thespring 55 will extend such that thepressing ball 56 is engaged into the engaging recess or engaginghole 54, so as to achieve the positioning of the light source modules. - An embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a
light source assembly 200. Thelight source assembly 200 may comprise two or morelight source modules 100 as described in any one of the above embodiments. As an example, the two or morelight source modules 100 may comprise a first light source module and a second light source module adjacent to each other. At least one firstfitting portion 31 of the first light source module is assembled directly with the at least one corresponding secondfitting portion 32 of the second light source module together. - In case that the first
fitting portion 31 and the secondfitting portion 32 are provided with thefirst positioning structure 51 and thesecond positioning structure 52 respectively, thefirst positioning structure 51 in the first light source module may be fitted to thesecond positioning structure 52 in the second light source module to determine relative positions of the first light source module and the second light source module. As discussed above, the engagement between thefirst positioning structure 51 of the first light source module and thesecond positioning structure 52 of the second light source module may be achieved by the retractable engaginghead 53 and the engaging recess or engaginghole 54. - As an example, in case that the first light source module has the third
fitting portion 33, at least one firstfitting portion 31 of the second light source module is able to be selectively assembled directly with the at least one corresponding secondfitting portion 32 or thirdfitting portion 33 of the first light source module together. Similarly, in case that the second light source module has the thirdfitting portion 33, at least one firstfitting portion 31 of the first light source module is able to be selectively assembled directly with the at least one corresponding secondfitting portion 32 or thirdfitting portion 33 of the second light source module together. In this way, the first light source module and the second light source module may be assembled more flexibly such that thelight source assembly 200 can have more forms. As an example, in the same light source assembly, different light source modules may have different structures, for example, the first fitting portion, the second fitting portion or the third fitting portion may have different shapes or arrangements. - As an example, the
bracket 30 of singlelight source module 100 may be formed integrally, so as to simplify the process for producing the light source module. - In the above embodiment, single
light source module 100 may both have the firstfitting portion 31 and the secondfitting portion 32. In this way, any twolight source modules 100 may be assembled together, to improve compatibility of assembling the light source modules. Even more, only one same type of the light source modules may be combined to achieve light source assemblies with various shapes. This may provide convenience for standard production, so as to improve throughput and reduce the costs. - However, the embodiments are not limited to this. In one
light source assembly 200, a certainlight source module 100 may only have the firstfitting portion 31, but not have the secondfitting portion 32, while anotherlight source module 100 may only have the secondfitting portion 32, but not have the firstfitting portion 31. This may also achieve mutual assembling of thelight source modules 100. - For example, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a light source assembly comprising a first light source module and a second light source module. The first light source module comprises: a first light source unit; a first optical element arranged in an optical path of a light emitted from the first light source unit and arranged to deviate the light emitted from the first light source unit; and a first bracket on which the first light source unit and the first optical element are mounted, the first bracket having a first
fitting portion 31. And the second light source module comprises: a second light source unit; a second optical element arranged in an optical path of a light emitted from the second light source unit and arranged to deviate the light emitted from the second light source unit; and a second bracket on which the second light source unit and the second optical element are mounted, the second bracket having a secondfitting portion 32. The firstfitting portion 31 and the secondfitting portion 32 have shapes matched with each other such that t-he firstfitting portion 31 and the secondfitting portion 32 can be assembled directly with each other together. - As an example, the second bracket further comprises a third
fitting portion 33 which is shaped to match with the firstfitting portion 31 such that the firstfitting portion 31 is able to be selectively assembled directly with one of the secondfitting portion 32 and the thirdfitting portion 33 together. - An embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a lighting and/or signaling apparatus comprising: the
light source module 100 as described in any one of the above embodiments or thelight source assembly 200 as described in any one of the above embodiments. - In embodiments of the present disclosure, the first optical element and the second optical element may for example be lenses arranged to collimate a light, or may be other optical deflection elements, such as light shaping elements, light reflectors, light deflectors or the like.
- The skilled person in the art should understand that, besides the components as described above, mechanical components (for example fasteners such as screws) and electronic components (for example driving circuit for the light emitting element) may also be provided for necessary functions, which are well-known in the art and thus their details are omitted herein.
- The lighting and/or signaling apparatus according to the present disclosure may be used for illumination and signaling of vehicles. It also may be used in other lighting and/or signaling field, for example, a flashlight, or a reflective plate for taking a photograph, and so on.
- Although the embodiments of the present disclosure have been explained with reference to the drawings, the embodiments shown in the drawings are given only be way of examples, instead of being intended to limit the present invention.
- Although several exemplary embodiments have been shown and described, the present invention is not limited to those and it would be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes or modifications may be made in these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the disclosure. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and equivalents thereof.
