Definitions

  • the invention relates to the technical field of lighting and signaling, more particularly for applications in the automotive field.
  • Such a light module typically comprises a collector with a reflective surface of revolution having an elliptical profile, shaped like a cap within a half-space delimited by a horizontal plane.
  • An essentially point light source such as a light-emitting diode (LED)
  • LED light-emitting diode
  • a thick lens towards the bottom of the light beam.
  • This reflective surface is commonly referred to as a "bender” because it bends upward towards the projection lens the rays that would otherwise form the upper part of the light beam.
  • the projection lens must be thick due to its short focal length, which increases its weight and complicates its production, particularly due to sink marks.
  • the collector has a certain height and, consequently, a certain amount of vertical space.
  • the published patent document WO 2020/025171 A1 discloses a lighting module, particularly for motor vehicles, comprising a collector with a reflective surface that collects and reflects the light rays emitted by a light source into a beam of light, similar to a folding machine lighting module.
  • the lighting module also includes an optical projection system, such as a A lens, specifically configured to project the light beam in question, forms an image of the collector's reflective surface.
  • the projection optical system has a focal point located on the reflective surface, for example, at its rear edge, so as to properly image this edge and create a clean cut in the projected light beam.
  • a screen, or blocker is positioned in front of the light source.
  • the construction of the screen or blocker, particularly in the context of industrial implementation, is not covered in this course.
  • the invention aims to overcome at least one of the drawbacks of the aforementioned prior art. More specifically, the invention aims to provide an implementation of the prior art screen that is optically efficient and industrially feasible.
  • the invention relates to a light module comprising a light source capable of emitting light rays; a platform supporting the light source; a collector with a reflective surface configured to collect and reflect the light rays into a light beam reflected along an optical axis; an optical system configured to project the reflected light beam by imaging a part of the reflective surface; a screen located in front of the light source, along a principal direction of propagation of the reflected light beam, and configured to collect light rays coming directly from the source, called direct rays; remarkable in that the screen extends along a transverse direction with a constant section and is arranged on the platform.
  • direct rays refers to light rays that, in the absence of a screen, could directly reach the entrance face of the optical system, or in other words, reach the entrance face of the optical system without having been first deflected by an optical element, particularly the reflecting surface. These direct rays, especially those emitted parallel or nearly parallel to the optical axis, would contribute to the projected light beam in the absence of a screen. having been shaped by the collector and the reflective surface, which is not desirable.
  • the collector and the reflective surface have a cap or half-shell shape.
  • the reflective surface has an elliptical or parabolic profile of revolution about an axis parallel to the optical axis.
  • the transverse direction is perpendicular to the optical axis.
  • the screen has an end face, opposite the mounting plate, which is convex.
  • the end face can also be called the end zone.
  • This end face, or end zone corresponds to the side of the screen that is opposite the side of the screen facing the mounting plate.
  • the end face, or end zone can be continuous or comprise several faces or portions separated by an edge.
  • the end face of the screen has a profile comprising a rounded portion with a radius of curvature greater than or equal to 0.1 mm.
  • the end face of the screen has a straight portion inclined at least 10° towards the rear and the mounting plate.
  • the profile in question is transverse to the principal direction of the screen, corresponding to the transverse direction, meaning that the profile lies in a longitudinal plane parallel to the optical axis.
  • the screen has a rear face collecting the direct rays located at a distance d, along the optical axis, from the light source which is less than or equal to 10 mm, preferably less than or equal to 4 mm.
  • the distance d is measured between a front edge of the light source and a rear edge of the rear face of the screen.
  • the rear face of the screen forms part of the end face of the screen.
  • all or part of the rear face of the screen may form part of the end face of the screen. At least a portion of the rear face then forms a portion of the end face.
  • Said part of the rear face forming a portion of the end face may form a continuous face with the rest of the end face of the screen, that is to say that said part of the rear face is not separated from the rest of the end face by an edge.
  • That portion of the rear face forming part of the screen's end face may be separated from the rest of the screen's end face by an edge.
  • the end face may then comprise one or more edges separating different faces or portions.

  • the screen is fixed to the plate by welding, brazing and/or gluing.
  • the screen is free of surface treatment of the reflective type and/or of the light-absorbing type.
  • the features of the invention are advantageous in that they allow the screen to be positioned close to the light source, thus enabling the screen to be sized, particularly in height, thereby avoiding the interception of rays from the reflected light beam. They also allow the mounting plate to be extended forward beyond the screen and, to the same extent, a heat sink for cooling the light source to be extended beneath the mounting plate, i.e., on a face opposite to that supporting the light source.
  • the features of the invention are also advantageous from an industrialization standpoint, in that the screens can be cut from a bar with the required cross-section and in that they allow the screens to be positioned and fixed as desired on different mounting plate designs.
  • front and back refer to a principal direction of ray propagation along the optical axis.
  • THE figures 1 to 3 illustrate a light module according to a first embodiment of the invention.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic side view of light module 2.
  • the light module 2 essentially comprises a light source 4, a mounting plate 6 supporting the light source 4, a collector 8 capable of reflecting the light rays emitted by the light source 4 to form a reflected light beam along an optical axis 10 of the module, and a projection lens 12 for said beam.
  • Other optical projection systems besides the projection lens are conceivable, such as one or more mirrors.
  • the light source 4 is advantageously of the semiconductor type, such as, in particular, a light-emitting diode. Specifically, the light source 4 emits light rays into a half-space delimited by the principal plane of said source, in a principal direction perpendicular to said plane and to the optical axis 10.
  • the collector 8 comprises a main body 8.1 in the shape of a shell or dome, and a reflective surface 8.2 on the inner face of the main body 8.1.
  • the reflective surface 8.2 may advantageously have an elliptical or parabolic profile. It is advantageously a surface of revolution about an axis parallel to the optical axis. Alternatively, it may be a freeform surface. It may also comprise several sectors.
  • the shell- or dome-shaped collector 8 is advantageously made of materials with good heat resistance, for example glass or synthetic polymers such as polycarbonate (PC) or polyether imide (PEI).
  • parabolic generally applies to reflectors whose surface has a single focal point, that is, a zone of convergence for light rays such that light rays emitted by a light source placed at this convergence zone are projected over a great distance after reflection from the surface. Projected over a great distance means that these light rays do not converge towards a zone located at least 10 times the dimensions of the reflector. In other words, the reflected rays do not converge towards a convergence zone, or if they do converge, this convergence zone is located at a distance greater than or equal to 10 times the dimensions of the reflector.
  • a parabolic surface may or may not have parabolic sections. A reflector with such a surface can, in particular, be used alone to create a beam of light.
  • the light source 4 is positioned at a focus of the reflecting surface 8.2 such that its rays are collected and reflected into a beam of light along the optical axis. At least some of these reflected rays have angles of inclination ⁇ with respect to the optical axis that are less than or equal to 10°, thus meeting Gaussian conditions, which produce stigmatism, i.e., a sharp projected image.
  • these are the rays reflected by the rear part of the reflecting surface 8.2.
  • the projection lens 12 is advantageously a biconvex lens, that is, with a convex entrance face 12.1 and a convex exit face 12.2.
  • the lens 12 is described as thin, for example less than 6 mm, due to the shallow angle of the rays to be deflected.
  • the lens 12 has a focal point 12.3 which is located, along the optical axis 10, at the level of the light source 4 or behind said source. In this case, the focal point 12.3 is located on the reflective surface 8.2 of the collector 8, more precisely at its rear edge, which is also referred to here as the lower edge.
  • the reflecting surface if it is of the elliptical type, has a second focal point located in front of the lens 12 and at a distance from the optical axis 10. It should be noted that it is also possible for this focal point to be located behind the lens and/or on the optical axis. preferably close to the lens, so as to reduce the beam width at the lens entrance face.
  • the light module 2 includes a screen 14 positioned in front of the light source 4 and opposite the reflective surface 8.2 of the collector 8, with a rear face 14.2 adapted to collect the direct light rays 16 emitted forwards directly by the source 4, i.e., rays not intersecting the reflective surface 8.2. This measure is useful for preventing the presence of stray light rays that could contribute to the formation of the light beam without actually being imaged. These direct rays 16, particularly those parallel or nearly parallel to the optical axis 10, would then potentially illuminate an upper part of the light beam, which is undesirable in the case of a cutoff beam.
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic view of the top of the light module 2 of the figure 1 .
  • the screen extends along the transverse direction 14.1, which is preferably perpendicular to the optical axis 10 and preferably parallel to the stage 6.
  • the screen extends along the transverse direction 14.1 so as to intercept or collect the direct light rays that, in the absence of the screen 14, would reach the entrance face 12.1 of the projection lens 12 and interfere with the projected light beam. This allows these stray rays to be intercepted.
  • the screen has a constant cross-section along the transverse direction 14.1.
  • the cross-section is pentagonal, more specifically a regular pentagon.
  • One of the five sides of the pentagon is positioned against the stage 6, and two adjacent sides, located at the rear of the screen and adjacent to the side positioned against the stage 6, form the rear face 14.2 of the screen 14.
  • the screen 14 is advantageously made of metallic and/or plastic material, particularly by extrusion. Its cross-section is advantageously solid, that is to say free of hollows or voids of material.
  • the rear face 14.2 of the screen 12 is advantageously free of reflective and/or light-absorbing surface treatments.
  • the portion of direct light rays 16 incident on the rear face 14.2 that is reflected is in fact partly reflected towards the reflective surface 8.2 of the collector 8 and partly towards the plate.
  • the portion of direct light rays 16 reflected towards the plate is then mostly absorbed.
  • the portion of direct light rays 16 reflected towards the reflective surface 8.2 of the collector 8 is reflected at angles of incidence such that they are then reflected forward at a distance from the lens 12.
  • FIG. 3 is a side view and perspective illustration of the light source, screen and collector of light module 2 of the figures 1 and 2 .
  • the distance between the light source 4 and the screen 14 is reduced, preferably less than or also at 4 mm. This distance is measured between a front edge of the light source 4 and a rear edge of the screen, more precisely a rear edge of the rear face 14.2 of the screen 14.
  • This reduced distance provides an optical advantage in that the screen can thus collect and block direct light rays while not intercepting any of the light rays reflected by the reflective surface 8.2 of the collector 8.
  • bringing the screen 14 closer to the light source 4 reduces its height and, consequently, positions its end face 14.3 opposite the plate (not shown in the diagram). figure 3 ), at a distance from the collector 8 and its reflective surface 8.2. This distance avoids any interference with the reflected light rays.
  • the end face of the screen 14, also called the end zone has a convex profile.
  • This profile comprises, in this case, a rounded portion 14.3.1 with a radius of curvature r and two straight portions 14.3.2 and 14.3.3 inclined at angles ⁇ and ⁇ , respectively, with respect to a direction parallel to the optical axis.
  • These two straight portions 14.3.2 and 14.3.3 are located on either side of the rounded portion 14.3.1, which is therefore central.
  • the end face 14.3 is thus formed by a continuous surface formed by the rounded portion 14.3.1 and the two straight portions 14.3.2 and 14.3.3.
