  • Patent number: 10071674
    Abstract: A projection light module for a motor vehicle headlight with a low-beam diaphragm, which separates a low-beam volume of the projection light module located above this diaphragm from a high-beam volume of the projection light volume located below this diaphragm, and with a high-beam diaphragm arranged in the high-beam volume, which has a vertical diaphragm edge and which divides the high-beam volume into a high-beam volume lying to the right of it and a high-beam volume lying left to it. The low-beam diaphragm and the high-beam diaphragm are components of a composite diaphragm and the high-beam diaphragm is arranged in the high-beam volume obliquely to the optical axis of the projection light module so that its distance from the optical axis of the projection light module increases with increasing distance along the optical axis from the diaphragm edge.

  • Patent number: 7988345
    Abstract: The invention relates to a projection module of an automobile headlight. The module includes several semiconductor light sources to broadcast optical irradiation of a primary optics assembly to bundle the emitted irradiation, and a secondary optics assembly that projects the bundled irradiation to create the desired light distribution in front of the vehicle. In order to reduce the weight and dimensions of the projection module, it is proposed that the secondary optics assembly is formed as a multi-part complex lens that includes several lens segments. Each of these lens segments is assigned to at least one irradiation bundle of irradiation bundled from the primary optics assembly, and projects this assembly as partial distribution in front of the vehicle, whereby the overall distribution of the projection module results from overlapping the partial distributions.
