  • Patent number: 11743991
    Abstract: The invention provides an automotive lighting device for an automotive vehicle. This device comprises a voltage regulator, a temperature sensor and a controlled light group. The controlled light group comprises a plurality of light sources and a light driver, the light driver comprising terminals and being configured to selectively activate or deactivate current flow in each terminal, in such a way that each light source is connected to one of the terminals. The controlled light group is fed by a voltage output value of the voltage regulator, the temperature sensor is arranged to sense a temperature in a zone of the lighting device and send information to the voltage regulator and the voltage regulator comprises a control driver to modify the voltage output value when receiving information from the temperature sensor.

  • Patent number: 11339940
    Abstract: A lighting module for an automotive vehicle. The module comprises a support, for example made by a heat dissipation device, and a printed circuit board accommodating at least one light source of a first type. The printed circuit board is housed on the support. The lighting module proposes allowing light sources of a second type, generating, for example, a different amount of heat, to be housed so that the rays arising from the two types of sources may be coupled into one and the same light guide, while efficiently dissipating the heat generated by each of the types of light sources.
