  • Patent number: 10760763
    Abstract: A lighting module intended to be placed behind a translucent or transparent outer lens or window, the module including: a place for at least one light source that is able to emit light rays; and an optical system that is able to deviate the light rays emitted by the one or more light sources so as to form a light beam along an optical axis of the module, the optical system extending in a main direction that is transverse to the optical axis and including an exit face for rays. The exit face of the optical system has in sagittal cross section a concave or convex curved general profile.

  • Patent number: 10676014
    Abstract: The invention relates to a lighting and/or signaling system for motor vehicles, including a light source and a lens configured for receiving light rays coming directly or indirectly from the source through an input surface and for emitting a first output beam providing a first regulatory lighting and/or signaling function through an output surface. A waveguide is configured for directly or indirectly receiving light rays coming from the source through an input surface and for emitting a second output beam through an output surface, wherein a coupling zone of the waveguide is located opposite a portion of either the input surface of the lens or the output surface of the lens.

  • Patent number: 10214135
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a motor vehicle light device that includes an optical deflector, at least one bearing element, and a pinning element. The pinning element has a bracing element bearing a contact portion, the bracing element at least partially surrounding the optical deflector, the contact portion bearing against the optical deflector. The optical deflector, the bearing element and the pinning element are arranged so that the optical deflector is at least partially gripped between the bearing piece and the contact portion, so that, in a direction running from the bearing piece to the contact portion, the contact portion is rigid and the bracing element is elastically deformable.

  • Patent number: 10118540
    Abstract: A signaling and/or lighting device for a motor vehicle, notably a stop light for a rear window of a motor vehicle, including a printed circuit received by a support. The printed circuit includes at least one light source an emitting face of which is oriented toward an optical lens of the device, the emitting face being generally perpendicular to the optical axis of the lens. The printed circuit support makes it possible to receive the latter at a plurality of predetermined distances relative to the optical lens, thereby assuring the focusing of the light emitted by different types of light sources that can be used in the device.

  • Patent number: 9702528
    Abstract: A device for attenuating electromagnetic disturbances given off by at least one electronic component, arranged on a printed circuit board mounted on a first face of a board support and bearing at least one light-emitting diode driven by the at least one electronic component for the emission of light rays. A containment cage is arranged around at least the electronic component, it is formed partially by walls made of a piece with the first face and on which the printed circuit board rests, so as to delimit a wave containment zone. The containment zone has an opening, in a first direction, suitable for being blocked or not by a closure piece distinct from the walls. The invention further relates to a light module equipped with such a device, and a motor vehicle comprising a light module according to the invention.
