  • Patent number: 12176682
    Abstract: An infrared-laser source device provided with an external housing, said external housing comprising: a light output interface arranged in a front part of the external housing, at least one infrared-laser source arranged in a rear part of the external housing and configured to emit an IR-laser beam providing a first emitting area at the light output interface, and a first light distributing element configured to diverge light at the light output interface, wherein said infrared-laser source device further comprises a second light distributing element separated from the first light distributing element and providing, at the light output interface, a second emitting area larger than the first emitting area.

  • Patent number: 7614768
    Abstract: A vehicle light has at least one light source and a light guide device into which light emitted by the light source can be directed and which possesses output means for outputting the light or a portion of the light. Diverting means are provided between the light source and the output means in such a way that widening and parallelization of the light takes place inside the light guide device. The diverting means comprise at lest one incision constructed on the light guide device which defines internal reflection surfaces for diverting the light laterally from a main beam direction of the at least one light source, and an end face of the light guide device that has external reflection surfaces that divert light already diverted laterally previously in the main beam direction of the at least one light source.

  • Publication number: 20080062710
    Abstract: The invention relates to a vehicle light, in particular a brake light a brake light, comprising at least one light source and a light guiding device wherein the light emitted by the light source can be injected and which comprises decoupling means for decoupling the light or a part thereof. Deviation means are arranged between the light source and the decoupling means in such a manner that the light is expanded and parallelised within the light guiding device.

  • Patent number: 7090410
    Abstract: An optical receptacle with low transmission loss, which is connectable with an optical plug, is provided. The optical receptacle includes a photoelectric conversion module having the capability of making photoelectric conversion between light signals and electrical signals, and a module housing. The photoelectric conversion module is a molded interconnect device (MID), which is provided with a module body having a post, an optical device mounted on the post, and an electrical circuit mounted on the module body. The module housing has a tubular projection, into which an end of the optical fiber supported by the optical plug can be inserted. When the optical plug is connected with an optical receptacle, the end of the optical fiber is positioned in the tubular projection so as to be in a closely opposing relation to the optical device mounted on the post.
