Abstract: An optical system for an illumination device for vehicles includes at least one light unit for generating a lighting function, semi-transparent mirrored surfaces, and reflective mirrored surfaces, characterized in that the reflective mirrored surfaces and the semi-transparent mirrored surfaces are oriented in the direction of a main direction of emission such that the sub light beam emitted by the light guiding element can be guided in the direction of the main direction of emission.

Abstract: A lighting appliance for vehicles includes a flat light guide having a light coupling section for the coupling of light into a first or a second end of the light guide, a narrow-side front serving as a light coupling section for the coupling-out of light into the main radiation direction extending between the first end and the second end of the flat light guide, a first flat side and a second flat side arranged on the opposite side, on which the coupled-in light can be fully reflected, a rear extending between the first end and the second end of the flat light guide having a number of optic elements for the redirection of the light into the direction of the narrow-side front, wherein the flat light guide is held with fastening means in a holding section of a holding lens running at right angles to the main radiation direction.

Abstract: A lighting device includes a first lamp unit mountable on a first body part and a second lamp unit mountable on a second body part and movable relative to the first body part, wherein a gap is formed between the first and second lamp units, the first and second lamp units each have a housing with light sources and covered by a transparent lens, wherein the lens has a base surface for transmitting a functional light beam in the main beam direction and a side section that borders the gap and runs parallel to a gap plane and through which a side light beam enters into the gap, wherein the side section of the lens and/or a light guiding part covered by the lens has scattering elements, so that the side light beam emitted by the light source can be emitted along the gap plane in the main beam direction.

Abstract: A light unit for a motor vehicle with an illuminated area through which visible light can be emitted. The illuminated area is formed by a first and a second planar OLED-element and the first OLED-element can be controlled independent from the second OLED-element, thus a segmenting of the illuminated area occurs.

Abstract: This present invention relates to a lighting device for vehicles which comprises a flat type light conducting body having two opposed flat sides at which light is transmitted from a light coupling or input side of said body to a light decoupling or output side thereof by total reflection, and a narrow side at the light input end along which a plurality of spaced-apart light elements are fitted for light input into the light conducting body, wherein said narrow side extends in at least an extension plane perpendicular to the flat sides and the narrow side is uneven at least in a light input section thereof that constitutes a light input position.

Abstract: A blink lamp is arranged on a comer of a motor vehicle, at a side next to a headlight, and has a housing with a light-transmissive cover panel covering the housing. A prismatic light element is arranged inside the blink lamp on a side adjacent to the headlight and adjacent to the cover panel. The prismatic light element bends beams of light coming directly from the light source toward the cover panel and toward the headlight.

Abstract: A light apparatus for vehicles includes a housing, which is closed by a closure pane. In the housing is installed at least one reflector with a corresponding light source. A cover which supports a light shield for the light source is located between the reflector and the closure pane.
