  • Patent number: 11703202
    Abstract: A lighting assembly is provided with a housing defining a cavity that is aligned along a longitudinal axis. A light source is supported by the housing and aligned with the longitudinal axis. A lens is supported by the housing to collimate light from the light source. An image plate with a plurality of apertures formed through passes a portion of the collimated light as light segments. An exit lens includes a first series of optics arranged on a first plane spaced apart from the image plate at a first focal distance to focus the light segments at a first distance from the housing, and a second series of optics arranged on a second plane spaced apart from the image plate at a second focal distance to focus the light segments at a second distance from the housing. The second focal distance is greater than the first focal distance.

  • Publication number: 20220178510
    Abstract: A lighting assembly is provided with a housing defining a cavity with a rearward opening and a forward opening formed opposite the rearward opening along a longitudinal axis. A plurality of light sources is supported by the housing and disposed within the rearward opening. A first lens is supported by the housing with a plurality of optics each aligned with one of the plurality of light sources to receive light and collimate the received light within the housing, wherein the first lens is formed of glass. A second lens is disposed within the forward opening of the housing to receive the collimated light and generate an illumination pattern.

  • Patent number: 8733992
    Abstract: A fog lamp for a vehicle is disclosed. Light leaving an LED is collected by a refractive/TIR lens. The central portion of the refractive/TIR lens is purely refractive, while the peripheral portion of the lens includes a total internal reflection off an exterior surface of the lens. The refractive/TIR lens converges the light to a focus at or near a laterally-elongated aperture in a light baffle. Light exiting the aperture diverges and passes through an anamorphic lens, which reduces the angular extent of the beam in the vertical direction and increases the angular extent in the lateral direction. The full fog lamp may include multiple pairs of LEDs and respective refractive/TIR lenses, all arranged coplanar, parallel and laterally adjacent to each other. The LED/lens pairs may all direct light through a single light baffle and through a single anamorphic lens.
