  • Patent number: 10900630
    Abstract: A headlight, in particular a headlight of a motor vehicle, having at least one first light source for a high beam, which emits light during operation of the headlight, and a first light guide having at least one light entry surface for the light emerging from the at least one first light source and at least one light exit surface, and at least one second light source for a low beam, which emits light during operation of the headlight, and a second light guide, which has at least one light entry surface for the light, emerging from the at least one second light source, and at least one light exit surface.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9335019
    Abstract: A headlight for vehicles, having a reflector, a light source unit which is functionally assigned to the reflector, a lens placed in front of the light source unit in the primary beam direction, and an aperture device arranged between the light source unit and the lens. The aperture device is positioned in a focal point region of the lens and has an aperture edge which runs perpendicular to the optical axis for the purpose of generating a light/dark boundary for a prespecified light distribution. The light source unit has a plurality of light sources separated spatially from each other, such that light can be emitted from an illumination surface. The aperture edge transitions into a correction edge from a central region of the aperture device towards opposite ends of the same. The correction edge runs in such a manner that an optical lens aberration resulting from the light source unit being constructed as an illumination surface is compensated.

  • Publication number: 20120092884
    Abstract: A projection headlight for motor vehicles has a reflector device, a plurality of light sources, at least one of said light sources assigned to the reflector device. A lens device is arranged in front of the reflector device in the main radiation direction. A cover device in the area of a focal point of the lens device has a cover shaft rotatable across the main radiation direction of the rotating axis main source. The cover shaft is provided with a number of glare edges and/or glare surfaces to adjust light distributors having a number of various cut-off lines. The light sources are arranged on a common light source carrier, the carrier extending substantially perpendicular to the main radiation direction and the carrier being configured to fasten onto a flat side of a heat sink.
