  • Patent number: 9927083
    Abstract: A lighting device for a motor vehicle, comprising a housing in which are arranged at least light-emitting means and optical-deflection means able to deflect the rays of light emitted toward an output face of the device, the device further comprising a main orifice formed in the housing for extracting the light-emitting means from the housing along a first axis. Fastening means are provided for fastening the emitting means in the device and the housing comprises an additional axis, distinct from the main orifice, for accessing the fastening means. The invention also relates to a motor vehicle headlamp equipped with at least one device of this type, and to a method of repositioning replacement means in a lighting device.

  • Patent number: 9914388
    Abstract: A motor vehicle lighting and/or signaling assembly including: a lighting module and an adapter that can be placed and retained in position in a housing of support means of an optical collector, and separate means for pressing the adapter against the support means of the module in a first direction and for adjusting the adapter in the housing of the support means in a second direction other than the first direction, these pressing and adjustment means being carried by the module and/or by the adapter. The invention further concerns the associated adapter and the associated module in this lighting and/or signaling assembly.

  • Patent number: 9766393
    Abstract: A light module comprising a means for supporting at least one collector of light rays in the vicinity of which there is a light guide suitable for guiding the rays emitted by a light source from an input face to at least two distinct and adjacent output faces. A distinction is made between a main output face, through which the rays pass in a first direction, and at least one additional output face which is oriented such that the light rays leaving the guide through this additional output face are directed toward the collector, in a second direction distinct from the first direction.

  • Patent number: 9671078
    Abstract: A lighting unit including devices for emitting a luminous flux in the direction of a reflector featuring devices for optical deflection of the flux toward the outlet of the unit, the reflector including a support wall that is fastened to the optical deflection devices and is disposed across the optical deflection devices so as to be disposed between the optical deflection devices and the emission devices. The support wall includes a masking portion that is disposed facing the emission devices and a so-called cut-off edge of which is cut away so as to form a mask integral with the support wall adapted to allow to pass only a portion of the rays emitted by the emission devices. The invention also concerns a motor vehicle headlamp, notably in that it includes two lighting units disposed transversely side by side.
