  • Patent number: 10054282
    Abstract: An automotive light includes a rear body; a front lenticular half-shell which closes the mouth of the rear body and is provided with at least one transparent/semi-transparent portion; and at least one lighting assembly which emits light upon command and is located within the rear body to backlight the transparent/semi-transparent portion of the front lenticular half-shell. The lighting assembly includes a planar OLED light source which emits light from its front face and is within the rear body with the front face facing the inner surface of the front lenticular half-shell to direct light towards the front lenticular half-shell; a concentrated LED light source behind the planar light source; and a light-guide rod of photoconductive material between the concentrated light source and the planar light source and receives light emitted by the concentrated light source and conveys the light towards the rear face of the planar light source.
