Abstract
An optical assembly of a light-emitting module, especially of a lighting and/or signalling module, for a motor vehicle, including an optical element, a frame; the optical element being overmoulded on the frame, the frame being shaped so as to make a mechanical attachment between the frame and the optical element following the overmoulding of the optical element on the frame.
Claims13
Optical assembly of a light-emitting module, for a motor vehicle, comprising:
- an optical element;
- a frame;
- said optical element being overmoulded on the frame,
- said frame comprising at least one contact surface configured to contact the optical element, wherein the contact surface includes a through hole adjacent to an edge of the frame such that a material of the optical element penetrates the through-hole and partially surrounds the edge so as to make a mechanical attachment between the frame and the optical element following the overmoulding of the optical element on the frame.
