Abstract
A vehicle light includes a light output lens for refracting light beams outwardly and forwardly in a first direction and a plurality of optical systems. Each optical system includes a light emitting unit and a lens unit positioned relative to the light emitting unit in a second direction transverse to the first direction. The light beams emitted from the light emitting unit propagate in the second direction and are reflected in the lens unit, such that all the extension lines of the light beams reflected in the lens unit extend through a focal region centered at the focus of the light output lens, and then propagate outwardly from the light output lens in directions generally parallel to the first direction.
Claims9
A vehicle light, comprising:
- a light output lens configured to refract a plurality of light beams such that the light beams propagate outwardly and forwardly of said light output lens in a first direction, defining an optical axis that extends along the first direction and a first focus that permits the optical axis of said light output lens to extend therethrough, and having a light output surface that protrudes forwardly in the first direction;
- and
- a plurality of optical systems, each of said optical systems including a light emitting unit emitting the light beam and a lens unit positioned relative to the light emitting unit such that said light emitting unit and the lens unit are arranged along a second direction transverse to the first direction, said lens unit being disposed nearer to the optical axis of said light output lens than said light emitting unit, the light beams that are emitted from said light emitting unit of each of said optical systems propagating in the second direction and being reflected in said lens unit, such that all the extension lines of the light beams reflected in the lens unit extend through a first focal region that is centered at the first focus, and then propagating outwardly from said light output lens in directions generally parallel to the first direction.
