具体实施方式
以下结合附图对本发明的具体实施方式进行详细说明,应当理解的是,此处所描述的具体实施方式仅用于说明和解释本发明,本发明的保护范围并不局限于下述的具体实施方式。
需要理解的是,如图1,基于该车灯光学元件,其正常安装于车灯中时,沿光线出射方向,“前”是指出光部3所在端,“后”是指入光面25所在端,“左”是指沿光线出射方向的左侧,“右”是指沿光线出射方向的右侧,“上”是指沿光线出射方向的上方,“下”是指沿光线出射方向的下方,在实际安装情况中,应当根据实际安装状态并结合本车灯光学元件本身为基准对方位术语进行解释,术语为基于附图所示的方位或位置关系,仅是为了便于描述本发明和简化描述,而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作,因此不能理解为对本发明的限制。需要说明的是,上述光线出射方向为车灯光学元件的出射光线的走向。根据《GB 4599-2007——汽车用灯丝灯泡前照灯》定义:明暗截止线为光束投射到配光屏幕上,目视感觉到的明暗显著变化的分界线,近光截止线指车灯近光光形的上边界。
另外,术语“第一”、“第二”仅用于描述的目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性或隐含指明所指示的技术特征的数量,因此,限定有“第一”、“第二”的特征可以明示或隐含地包括一个或更多个所述特征。
在本发明的描述中,还需要说明的是,除非另有明确的规定和限定,术语“安装”、“连接”应做广义理解,例如,可以是固定连接,也可以是可拆卸连接,或者是一体连接;可以是直接连接,也可以是通过中间媒介间接连接,可以是两个元件内部的连通或两个元件的相互作用关系。对于本领域的普通技术人员而言,可以根据具体情况理解上述术语在本发明中的具体含义。
还需要说明的是,为了车灯造型等需求,可以在该车灯光学元件和外配光镜之间设置至少一个内配光镜,该内配光镜可以是普通等壁厚塑料件,只为呈现所需造型,还可以是背面具有配光功能的配光塑料件。
参考图1和图2,本发明第一方面提供一种车灯光学元件,包括依次设置的通光部2和出光部3,通光部2包括入光面25、第一反射面21和第二反射面22。其中,入光面25可以为平面或向后凸出的曲面,光线从入光面25射向通光部2,第一反射面21和第二反射面22相对设置,以使得光线依次经第一反射面21和第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3。可选择地,第一反射面21和第二反射面22前后设置,入光面25接收的光线先射向第一反射面21,第一反射面21能够将光线向后反射至第二反射面22,第二反射面22再将光线向前反射至出光部 3,由出光部3投射形成出射光形;或者,第一反射面21和第二反射面22上下设置,入光面25接收的光线先射向第一反射面21,第一反射面21能够将光线向上或向下反射至第二反射面22后反射至出光部3,由出光部3投射形成出射光形。
现有技术中的照明模组,一般都包括光源、反射元件、遮光板、透镜以及安装支架,光源发出的光线经反射元件反射后射向遮光板,经遮光板截取后,由透镜投射形成所需的类平行光照明光形。显然的,这种结构的照明模组的零件数量及种类较多,定位精度较低,而且光线的前后传播距离较长、反射元件与透镜的距离较远,导致照明模组的长度较长,在车灯有限空间内的布置灵活性不高。
而本发明的车灯光学元件巧妙地利用第一反射面21和第二反射面22改变光线在车灯光学元件中的传导方向,使得由入光面25接收的光线依次经第一反射面21和第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3,从而在光程不变的情况下,缩短了光线的前后传播距离,减小了该车灯光学元件在车灯前后方向上的占用空间。
本发明的基础技术方案的车灯光学元件,可独立形成光形,不需要遮光板、透镜等其它光学元件,集成化程度高,还能够避免在装配过程中各光学元件之间产生的装配误差,提高装配精度,从而能够提高光学精度;而且,利用第一反射面21和第二反射面22,缩短光线的前后传播距离,使得该车灯光学元件的空间占用体积更小,结构更加紧凑,小型化程度高,在车灯内布置更加灵活,满足用户对个性化、科技感的车灯造型的需要;此外,该车灯光学元件结构简单,降低了车灯模组的装配、调光难度,简化了生产的工序流程,加快了生产节拍,节约了生产成本,避免了装配误差,从而保障出射光形稳定。
本发明的车灯光学元件可用于实现多种照明光形,应用于多种照明车灯,例如远光灯、近光灯、角灯或雾灯等,以应用于近光灯为例,其能够形成具有近光明暗截止线的照明光形,作为一种用于近光灯的车灯光学元件的结构,参考图3至图5,第一反射面21将光线向后反射至第二反射面22,并且在通光部2的下表面与第一反射面21的交汇处,即在第一反射面21的后边缘处形成截止线结构24a;或者,参考图13至图15,第一反射面21将光线向上反射至第二反射面22,在通光部2的下表面与第一反射面21的交汇处,即在第一反射面21的后边缘处形成截止线结构24a;或者,参考图19,第一反射面21将光线向下反射至 第二反射面22,通光部2的下表面与第二反射面22的交汇处,即在第二反射面22的后边缘处形成截止线结构24c。由入光面25入射的光线依次经第一反射面21和第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3,由出光部3投射形成照明光形。更加具体地,在图5和图15所示出的实施例中,射向截止线结构24a处的光线经第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3,由出光部3投射后形成照明光形的明暗截止线,该明暗截止线位于该照明光形的上边界,射向第一反射面21的光线经第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3,由出光部3投射后形成照明光形;在图19所示出的实施例中,射至该截止线结构24c上的光线依次经第一反射面21和第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3,由出光部3投射后形成照明光形的明暗截止线,该明暗截止线位于该照明光形的上边界,射向第一反射面21的光线经第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3,由出光部3投射后形成照明光形。该截止线结构24a、截止线结构24c可以为具有拐点的折线或曲线,用于形成具有拐点的近光明暗截止线,其照明光形可以为完整的近光光形或投射至近光中心区域的主近光光形;该截止线结构24a、截止线结构24c还可以为直线或弧线,用于形成水平的近光明暗截止线,其照明光形可以为投射至近光展宽区域的辅助近光光形。
优选地,参考图5和图15,当所述第一反射面21将所述入光面25接收的光线向后或向上反射至所述第二反射面22,并且截止线结构24a形成于第一反射面21的后边缘时,所述第二反射面22与所述出光部3共同构成的光学系统的光线汇聚点位于所述截止线结构24a处或其附近区域。该光学系统的光线汇聚点是指平行光线由出光部3的前方入射至第二反射面22,经第二反射面22反射至截止线结构24a上或其附近区域后,在截止线结构24a上或其附近区域汇聚而成的点。更加形象地,第二反射面22为平面,平行光线由出光部3前方入射并经出光部3折射后汇聚形成焦点,上述光线汇聚点与该焦点关于第二反射面22对称,因此,根据光的可逆性,从光线汇聚点出射的光线经第二反射面22反射至出光部3后出射的光路与从上述焦点出射的光线经出光部3直接出射的光路相同,而前者相比后者缩短了光线的前后传播距离。参考图19,当所述第一反射面21能够将所述入光面25接收的光线向下反射至所述第二反射面22,截止线结构24c形成于所述第二反射面22的后边缘时,所述第一反射面21、第二反射面22与所述出光部3共同构成的光学系统的光线汇聚点位于所述截止线结构24c处。该 光学系统的光线汇聚点是指平行光线由出光部3前方入射至第二反射面22,然后依次经第二反射面22和第一反射面21反射至截止线结构24c上或其附近区域后,在截止线结构24c上或其附近区域汇聚而成的点。更加形象地,第一反射面21和第二反射面22为平面,由出光部3前方入射的平行光线经出光部3折射后汇聚形成焦点,该焦点关于第二反射面22对称的对称点与上述光线汇聚点关于第一反射面21对称,因此,根据光的可逆性,从光线汇聚点出射的光线依次经第一反射面21和第二反射面22反射至出光部3后出射的光路与从上述焦点出射的光线经出光部3直接出射的光路相同,而前者相比后者缩短了光线的前后传播距离。
作为另一种用于近光灯的车灯光学元件的结构,参考图9、图18和图20,通光部2的下部设有凸起结构23,凸起结构23的后表面与通光部2相交形成截止线结构24b。参考图9,由入光面25入射的光线依次经第一反射面21和第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3,由出光部3投射形成照明光形,其中,射至该截止线结构24b上的光线依次经第一反射面21和第二反射面22反射后射向出光部3,由出光部3投射后形成照明光形的明暗截止线,该明暗截止线即为该照明光形的上边界。同样,该截止线结构24b可以为具有拐点的折线或曲线,用于形成具有拐点的近光明暗截止线,其照明光形可以为完整的近光光形或投射至近光中心区域的主近光光形;该截止线结构24b还可以为直线或弧线,用于形成水平的近光明暗截止线,其照明光形可以为投射至近光展宽区域的辅助近光光形。
优选地,第一反射面21、第二反射面22与出光部3共同构成的光学系统的光线汇聚点位于截止线结构24b上或区附近区域。该光学系统的光线汇聚点是指平行光线由出光部3前方入射至第二反射面22,然后依次经第二反射面22和第一反射面21反射至截止线结构24b上或其附近区域后,该平行光线在截止线结构24b上或其附近区域汇聚而成的点。更加形象地,参考图18,第一反射面21和第二反射面22为平面,由出光部3前方入射的平行光线经出光部3折射后汇聚形成焦点,该焦点关于第二反射面22对称的对称点与该光线汇聚点关于第一反射面21对称,因此,根据光的可逆性,从光线汇聚点出射的光线依次经第一反射面21和第二反射面22反射至出光部3后出射的光路与从上述焦点出射的光线经出光部3直接出射的光路相同,而前者相比后者缩短了光线的前后传播距 离。
可选择地,参考图6至图10、图16至图20,截止线结构24b为两侧向前弯曲的具有拐点的曲线,可形成具有拐点的近光明暗截止线,进而用于近光灯或近光灯中的主近光模组;或者,参考图11至图12,截止线结构24b为两侧向前弯曲的平滑曲线,可形成不具有拐点的水平明暗截止线,进而用于近光灯中的辅助近光模组。可以理解的是,截止线结构24b两侧向前弯曲,形成向后凸出的曲线,使得出射光形的截止线成像更加清晰锐利,或者也可以为直线。该车灯光学元件设计灵活,根据不同车灯内的设计空间,通过增设凸起结构23、调节截止线结构24a、24b、24c的位置即可适用于多种不同设计空间的车灯,还可以针对左右驾驶位进行调节,适用性较广。或者,参考图1,该车灯光学元件可以不设置凸起结构23和截止线结构24a、24b、24c,进而用于远光灯、角灯、雾灯等其他车灯,也可以通过设置凸起结构23和截止线结构24a、24b、24c形成具有明暗截止下边界的远光光形。
为了提高光效,本发明的车灯光学元件还包括设置于所述入光面25后方的聚光部1,可选择的,聚光部1为聚光杯结构;或者聚光部1为向后凸出的曲面结构或锥体结构等。当然,本发明的聚光部1并不局限于上述结构,还可以是其他结构,其作用均是将光线聚集准直,因此,其他一些聚光结构也均属于本发明的保护范围。
作为一种具体的结构形式,聚光部1为聚光杯结构,聚光部1的外部轮廓面为由远离通光部2的一端向靠近通光部2的一端口径逐渐增大的曲面,聚光部1远离通光部2的一端开设有内凹腔体,内凹腔体包括前入光面和侧入光面,前入光面为向远离通光部2的一侧凸出的曲面,侧入光面为由远离通光部2的一端向靠近通光部2的一端口径逐渐减小的曲面。参考图21,内凹腔体的开口朝向光源4以接收光源4发出的光线,聚光部1通过内凹腔体的前入光面可将光源4所发出的部分光线折射至前方,该内凹腔体的侧入光面可对光源4所发出的其它光线进行折射,且将折射后的光线再通过外部轮廓面反射至前方,由此可基本实现对光源4发出的所有光束的汇聚准直,可达到提高光源4的光束利用率的目的。并且,发散光经聚光部1折射或反射后,能够形成角度较小的光束,使得该光源4发出的光线能够完全或绝大部分的入射到第一反射面21,实现较高的光效。
优选地,该车灯光学元件为一体成型的实心光导体,由于光线一直在同一介质内传输,光线基本不会有衰减,该车灯光学元件的光学效率较高。具体地,可以采用玻璃、PC、PMMA或硅胶等材质一体成形,不但简化了生产的工序流程,节约了生产成本,而且还能够减少零件数量,使得装配后的车灯结构更加紧凑,同时,还能够避免在装配过程中各光学元件之间的装配误差,提高装配精度,从而能够提高光学精度,保障出射光形稳定。
优选地,第一反射面21、第二反射面22上具有镀膜反射层。该镀膜反射层可以为镀铝层、镀铬层或镀银层等。镀膜反射层能够提升各个反射面的反射率,从而提高光线利用率。
更优选地,为了进一步节约成本,仅仅在第二反射面22上用于反射光线的局部区域设置镀膜反射层。参考图12,第二反射面22的最上部和最下部并未起到反射光线的作用,因此,上述两部分可以不设镀膜反射层,仅在第二反射面22的中间位置设置镀膜反射层。
优选地,所述第一反射面21和第二反射面22为平面。
典型地,参考图1,出光部3包括出光面31,出光面31为向前凸出的曲面,以起到汇聚、准直光线的作用。或者也可以采用其他形式的具有汇聚、准直功能的光学面。
本发明的车灯模组,包括第一方面技术方案中的车灯光学元件,因此至少具有上述车灯光学元件的技术方案所带来的所有有益效果,在此不再赘述。
本发明的车辆,可以包括上述实施例中的车灯模组,因此至少具有上述车灯模组的实施例的技术方案所带来的所有有益效果。
以上结合附图详细描述了本发明的优选实施方式,但是,本发明并不限于上述实施方式中的具体细节,在本发明的技术构思范围内,可以对本发明的技术方案进行多种简单变型,这些简单变型均属于本发明的保护范围。
另外需要说明的是,在上述具体实施方式中所描述的各个具体技术特征,在不矛盾的情况下,可以通过任何合适的方式进行组合,为了避免不必要的重复,本发明对各种可能的组合方式不再另行说明。
此外,本发明的各种不同的实施方式之间也可以进行任意组合,只要其不违背本发明的思想,其同样应当视为本发明所公开的内容。
