Definitions
- the present invention relates to a projection lens consisting at least partially of transparent plastic for a projection light module of a motor vehicle headlight according to the preamble of claim 1, as well as an injection molding tool and a method for its production according to the preambles of the other independent claims.
- Such a projection lens has a first optical surface and a second optical surface as well as several layers, wherein a first of the layers of the projection lens is a layer produced by injection molding plastic in a first process cycle and further layers are produced by injection molding plastic in further process cycles. Each further layer produced in a further process cycle adheres to a plastic layer produced in a process cycle preceding the further process cycle. All further layers lying between the first optical surface and the first layer form a first partial lens.
- a second partial lens comprises all further layers lying between the second optical surface and the first layer.
- Such an injection molding tool has a cavity suitable for producing a first optical surface and a cavity suitable for producing a second optical surface and several cavities.
- a first of the cavities is a cavity designed for injection molding a first layer in a first process cycle.
- Other cavities are cavities designed for producing further layers by injection molding plastic in further process cycles. wherein each further layer produced in a further process cycle adheres to a plastic layer produced in a process cycle preceding the further process cycle.
- the cavities are designed such that all further layers lying between the first optical surface and the first layer form a first partial lens and that a second partial lens comprises all further layers lying between the second optical surface and the first layer.

- Such a projection lens, such an injection molding tool and such a process are assumed to be known per se.
- the projection lens produced according to the known method has a first optical surface and a second optical surface.
- the known method has several process cycles that follow one another in time, wherein in a first of the process cycles a first layer of the projection lens is produced by injection molding plastic and in at least one further process cycle further injection molding steps of plastic take place in which further layers of the projection lens are produced.

- both halves 42, 43 can be rotated relative to one another with the straight line x as the axis of rotation.
- the two halves 42, 44 should preferably have a k-fold symmetry, in particular a six-fold symmetry, in the separating surface 46.

- Approximate correspondence is understood to mean that the thicknesses d1 and d2 do not differ by more than 50%.
- the thicknesses d1 and d2 do not differ by more than 10%, particularly preferably by no more than 5%.
