  • Publication number: 20230324020
    Abstract: An LED retrofit lamp for a projection headlight system comprises a heat dissipating body portion and a substantially rectangular substrate. A first LED group is mounted on a first surface of the substrate and a second LED group is mounted on a second surface. A support bracket is configured to engage longitudinal sides of the substrate to mechanically support the substrate in alignment with a central optical axis of the headlight system so that light emitted by the first and second LED groups parallel to the first and second surfaces illuminates corresponding top and bottom segments of a cooperating reflector with sufficient intensity for projection headlight system to form a beam having substantially homogenous light intensity.

  • Publication number: 20230109084
    Abstract: An LED retrofit lamp is described. The LED retrofit lamp includes LEDs arranged into at least a first group of LEDs and a second group of LEDs, power contacts, an interface and a controller. The power contacts receive electrical power to operate the LEDs. The interface supplies control signals to operate one or more of the first group and the second group of LEDs. The controller receives the control signals and operates the first group of LEDs and the second group of LEDs independent from each other based on the received control signals.

  • Publication number: 20230060185
    Abstract: An LED retrofit signaling lamp is described herein. The lamp includes a lamp body, which includes a cap, a projection part, and a burner part between the cap and the projection part. Power contacts are exposed from the cap. A projection LED light source is provided in the projection part and angled to provide a projected image near to the vehicle when activated. A signaling LED light source is provided in the burner part angled to emit non-projected light via the projection part at angles that avoid the emitted light being blocked by the projection LED light source. The projection LED light source and the signaling LED light source are electrically coupled to the power contacts in parallel to each other.

  • Patent number: 10527247
    Abstract: An incandescent lamp for a vehicle headlight comprising a transparent vessel that encloses at least one filament and the vessel is at least partly covered with a coating. The coating comprises at least one pigment, which is arranged such that light emitted by the at least one filament and traversing the coating is transformed to transformed light. The transformed light is characterized by a chromaticity according to the CIE 1931 xy-chromaticity with y being in between the Planckian locus and y=0.5*x+0.205 and 0.36<x<0.42, and wherein the at least one pigment comprises a mixture of Co—Al oxide and Co—Al—Cr oxide, the mixture being characterized by a ratio of a concentration in mass percentage Cm(Co—Al oxide) of Co—Al oxide and a concentration in mass percentage Cm(Co—Al—Cr oxide) of Co—Al—Cr oxide in the coating of 90/10?Cm(Co—Al oxide)/Cm(Co—Al—Cr oxide)?30/70.
