  • Publication number: 20060187666
    Abstract: A vehicle lamp includes a lamp housing which can be introduced into a bodywork opening until an abutment provided thereon comes to bear against a part of the vehicle. A sealing means in the installed condition sealingly closes the bodywork opening. At least one latching means engages behind the edge of the bodywork opening to prevent the vehicle lamp from moving out of the bodywork opening. To reduce the tolerance requirements the lamp housing comprises first and second housing portions of which the first has the abutment and the latching means and the second has the sealing means. The housing portions are displaceable relative to each other in the installation direction from a pre-assembly position into a final assembly position.

  • Patent number: 6991357
    Abstract: A lamp, in particular a motor vehicle lamp, comprises a light distribution device (14, 14?) into which the light of at least one light source (6) is fed in such a way as to produce a light flux which is firstly propagated through the light distribution device substantially parallel to a light exit surface defined thereby. Components are deflected out of the light flux by means of coupling-out structures (16, 16?) for delivery through the light exit surface.
