  • Lamp for a headlight of a motor vehicle
    Patent number: 8602616
    Abstract: It is provided a lamp, particularly halogen lamp, for a headlight of a motor vehicle, comprising a light source (12) for emitting mainly white light, a mainly transparent envelope (14) encapsulating the light source (12) and a filter element (22) provided at the envelope (14), wherein the filter element (22) is adapted for deflecting visible light of a predefined wavelength interval such, that mainly blue light can be provided above a bright/dark-cutoff (28). Since the deflected bluish light is above the bright/dark-cutoff (28) an oncoming driver recognizes earlier the light. At the same time the oncoming driver is not blinded by the blue light above the bright/dark-cutoff (28), since not the whole emitted light (40) but only a smaller wavelength interval is directed above the bright/dark-cutoff (28).
    Type: Grant
