  • Publication number: 20200072701
    Abstract: The detection system comprises a light unit to emit light, a primary optical unit to process light, a main light stream exiting therefrom directed to the mirror unit comprising micromirrors arranged in a rotary way whose angle of rotation is controlled by the control system so that light intended to produce a light image at a particular moment is reflected by the respective micromirrors, while the part of the light that shouldn't be used to produce the light image at the particular moment is reflected by other micromirrors into an absorption unit, from where light rays continue into the detection unit with an optical sensor to detect light rays, and a control unit to process the signal from the optical sensor, to evaluate whether the established condition corresponds to the pre-established light characteristic that the respective micromirror (or group(s) thereof) would exhibit during its faultless activity.

  • Patent number: 9789806
    Abstract: The apparatus of a progressive direction indicator, especially for a car headlight or lamp, comprises the main connector (1) as the input electric interface, an LDM power supply module (2) for the power supply of the LED light sources (7), an LED board (4) where the LED light sources are mounted, and an interface (3) interconnecting the LDM power supply module with the LED board. The apparatus further comprises a current controller (9) for setting the current of the LED light sources, with the LDM power supply module comprising a DC/DC converter (5) generating the output voltage V out, which is the voltage source for the LED board. The LED board comprises discrete switching elements (8) for switching of individual LED light sources depending on the input voltage, so that the LED light sources are sequentially switched depending on the output voltage V out.

  • Patent number: 9338842
    Abstract: Pulse switching controller for the LED lighting of the LED drive module for lamps in automobile applications provided with light sources having LED diodes and a drive module for the LED function and excitation, where the drive module (3) comprises at minimum one resistance regulator (38) working in pulse switching duty, which is connected by its input to the last cathode of the corresponding branch (33) of LED diodes and by its output to the input electrode of a switching element (37), which is connected by its output electrode to ground, while the controlling electrode of the switching element (37) is connected to the output of a pulse generator (36) with a set duty cycle in dependence on the input voltage, which is connected both by a sensor input to the input voltage from the input circuit (31) and by an external input (35).
