Abstract
The invention relates to a lighting module including a first sub-module with a first light motor and a first optical device that is able to project a first light beam from the first light motor as a first projected light beam, a second sub-module with a second light motor and a second optical device that is able to project a second light beam from the second light motor as a second projected light beam, a mounting plate that is inclined at an angle a with respect to a horizontal plane, about an inclination axis, and in which the first and second light motors are disposed one behind the other, and a plane mirror that is able to reflect the corresponding first or second light beam towards a corresponding projection lens.
Claims16
A lighting module for a motor vehicle, the lighting module comprising:
- an optical axis;
- a first sub-module including:
- a first light motor including at least one source of light, a first collector with at least one reflective surface which can reflect rays of light emitted by the at least one source of light of the first light motor in a first reflected light beam, and
- a first optical device which can project the first reflected light beam in a first projected light beam;
- and
- a second sub-module including:
- a second light motor including at least one source of light, a second collector with at least one reflective surface which can reflect rays of light emitted by the at least one source of light of the second light motor in a second reflected light beam, and
- a second optical device which can project the second reflected light beam in a second projected light beam;
- a plate with an inclination of an angle α in relation to a horizontal plane, around an axis of inclination which is horizontal and perpendicular to the optical axis;
- the first and second light motors are positioned on the plate, one behind the other according to a projection of the optical axis on the plate, and
- each of the first and second optical devices includes a projection lens and a flat mirror which can return the corresponding first or second reflected light beam towards the corresponding projection lens.
A motor vehicle headlamp comprising a lighting module with the lighting module including an optical axis, a first sub-module including a first light motor including at least one source of light, a first collector with at least one reflective surface which can reflect rays of light emitted by the at least one source of light of the first light motor in a first reflected light beam, and a first optical device which can project the first reflected light beam in a first projected light beam, and a second sub-module including a second light motor including at least one source of light, a second collector with at least one reflective surface which can reflect rays of light emitted by the at least one source of light of the second light motor in a second reflected light beam, and a second optical device which can project the second reflected light beam in a second projected light beam, a plate with an inclination of an angle α in relation to a horizontal plane, around an axis of inclination which is horizontal and perpendicular to the optical axis, the first and second light motors are positioned on the plate, one behind the other according to a projection of the optical axis on the plate, and each of the first and second optical devices includes a projection lens and a flat mirror which can return the corresponding first or second reflected light beam towards the corresponding projection lens.
