  • Patent number: 10690308
    Abstract: An automotive lighting device includes a low beam light source, adapted for emitting a low beam and a signlight beam, a diaphragm element and a main optical element. The main optical element includes a first zone and a second zone. The first zone is suitable for receiving a part of the low beam which has not been reflected by the diaphragm element and projecting a low beam pattern and the second zone is suitable for receiving a part of the signlight beam which has not been reflected by the diaphragm element and projecting a signlight pattern. At least part of the second zone of the main optical element is treated to provide light diffusion.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 10267477
    Abstract: A lighting module for a motor vehicle includes a first light source and a first collimator for generating a first light beam of “low beam” type in collaboration with a first projection lens. Also included are second and a third light sources, the second light source collaborating with a second collimator to generate a first beam complementing the first light beam in order to form a second light beam of “high beam” type. In order to reduce the visibility of a cut-off zone in the second beam, the third light source collaborates with a third collimator and/or a second projection lens in order to form a second complementary beam which at least partly overlaps the cut-off zone. A front headlight for a motor vehicle can include such a lighting module.
