  • Patent number: 11846399
    Abstract: The invention includes a lighting device with a signaling module that can move in at least a first direction and a lighting module that can move in a second direction different from the first direction. The movable lighting module being able to take a position that is invisible and a position that is visible from outside the lighting device. The lighting device further including a controller designed to control a movement of the lighting module such that: in a first mode, called daytime mode, the lighting module assumes the invisible position; in a second mode, called nighttime mode, the lighting module assumes the visible position. The controller moves of the signaling module such that at least one part of the signaling module moves in the first direction in order to authorize a movement of the lighting module in the second direction from the invisible position to the visible position.

  • Patent number: 10071679
    Abstract: A device for motor vehicle designed to emit light in a main direction of emission (X). The lighting device has at least one mount fixedly mounted in the lighting device, at least one vane, the vane being articulated to the mount and having a panel on which is arranged at least one light source suited to emitting light in a favored direction of radiation (Y), and an actuating device suited to causing the vane to pivot with respect to the mount between a rest position and an emission position in which the favored direction of radiation (Y) of the vane is close to the main direction of emission (X) or corresponds more or less to the main direction of emission (X) of the lighting device.
