  • the present invention relates to a headlight or taillight for cars and similar vehicles, i.e. a lighting apparatus adapted to be incorporated into a motor vehicle with the function of signalling the position, the sudden deceleration and/or the turning direction, and/or with the function of illuminating the area surrounding the vehicle.
  • a headlight or taillight for cars and similar vehicles i.e. a lighting apparatus adapted to be incorporated into a motor vehicle with the function of signalling the position, the sudden deceleration and/or the turning direction, and/or with the function of illuminating the area surrounding the vehicle.
  • the taillights for cars and similar vehicle generally comprise: a rigid and substantially basin-shaped rear body which is structured so as to be stably recessed into a compartment specially realized in the rear part of the bodywork of the vehicle; a front half-shell which is arranged to close the mouth of the rear body so as to surface outside the bodywork of the vehicle, and is generally provided with a plurality of transparent or semitransparent sectors, usually differently coloured to one another; and a series of lighting assemblies that are located inside the rear body, each immediately beneath a respective transparent or semitransparent sector of the front half-shell, so as to be able to selectively backlight the overlying transparent or semitransparent sector of the front half-shell.
  • each transparent or semitransparent sector of the front half-shell is moreover uniquely associated with a specific light signal adapted to signal the position of the vehicle, the sudden deceleration of the vehicle or the turning direction of the vehicle during travel.
