Abstract: A lighting device with a multiple light function includes an optical component (1) which includes a transparent segment (1a) having a primary transparent part (2) and a secondary transparent part (3) which parts are connected to each other by an interconnecting channel (4). A non-transparent segment (1b) is connected to the transparent segment (1a). A primary lighting unit (2a) illuminates the primary transparent part (2) and a secondary lighting unit (3a) illuminates the secondary transparent part (3). Leading-out optics are formed by prismatic elements (6) in the interconnecting channel (4) of the transparent segment (la) of the optical component (1). Against the leading-out optics, a light absorber (8) is formed in the part of the non-transparent segment (1b) overlapping the interconnecting channel (4). The light absorber (8) being adapted to convert light energy into thermal energy.

Abstract: A lighting device with a multiple light function, comprising an optical component which includes a transparent segment having a primary transparent part and a secondary transparent part which are connected to each other by an interconnecting channel, a non-transparent segment connected to the transparent segment, whereby a primary lighting unit is assigned to the primary transparent part and a secondary lighting unit is assigned to the secondary transparent part. Leading-out optics is formed by means of prismatic elements in the interconnecting channel of the transparent segment of the optical component, against which a light absorber is formed in the part of the non-transparent segment overlapping the interconnecting channel, the light absorber being adapted to convert light energy into thermal energy.
