- the present invention relates to optical modules of the first family.
- the invention is also concerned with optical modules equipped with a fixed or movable cover adapted to intercept at least partially, depending on its position, the light beam emitted by the light source / reflector assembly.
- the shape of the upper edge of the cache makes it possible to define the desired cut in the beam by imaging with the convergent lens.
- the mobile cover on command and thanks to the presence of a motor, can take different positions relative to the light source, including at least one so-called optically active position, that is to say a position where it actually obscures a part of the light beam, in particular for the module to emit a cut-off beam, such as a cross beam (oblique cut) or anti-fog (horizontal cut).
- the cache may thus have one or more active positions, for example two, one for the traffic crossing function on the right and one for the traffic function on the left, and also a so-called passive function where it does not block the light beam, thus allowing the module to emit light beams without interruption of the road beam type.
- the invention proposes such an elliptical optical module with several optically active parts and which is easy to produce mechanically.
- one of the parts of the cache comprises an axis, called the main axis, on which are rotated the other parts of the cache. The mechanical realization of the cache is thus facilitated.

- This is a discharge lamp which is mounted in the reflector 2 via a mounting hole provided at the rear vertex of the reflector 2.
- the invention could be applied to devices comprising light-emitting diodes, for example to the device of the document FR2953468 , replacing the cache of the latter by that of the present invention.
- the optical module 1 also comprises an intermediate sleeve, not shown, which is generally frustoconical in shape converging towards the front and which is coaxial with the optical axis "A".
- the rear end of the sleeve has a rear opening whose contour corresponds to the contour of the front opening of the reflector 2.
- the sleeve is intended to be fixed on the periphery of the front opening of the reflector.
- the front end of the sleeve is closed by a convergent optical lens 3 before.
- the lens 3 is arranged so that its focal plane coincides with the second front focus "b" of the reflector 2.
- the lamp when it is on, it emits light rays, represented by arrows, a majority of which is reflected by the inner wall of the reflector 2 towards the front.
- the lamp being arranged at the first focus "a", the reflected light rays converge towards the second focus "b" which is arranged behind the lens 3.
- the light rays then pass through the lens 34 so as to form a light beam which is directed forward in the overall direction of the optical axis "A".
- Module 1 also includes a cover 4, illustrated in FIGS. Figures 2 to 5 and 7.
- the cover 4 is pivotally mounted about an axis of rotation "B" transversely oriented relative to the reflector 2.
- the rotation axis "B" of the cover 4 n is not concurrent with the optical axis "A" of the reflector 2.
- the axis of rotation "B" is more particularly arranged in the transverse vertical plane of the front opening of the reflector 2, near the second front focus "b".
- the cover 4 comprises several distinct parts 5.6, each part 5, 6 being pivotally mounted about the axis of rotation "B". Each portion 5.6 is provided with adjacent flanges 7 ( Figures 2, 3 and 5 ). Each flange 7 extends radially from the axis of rotation "B". The transverse width of the flanges 7 is substantially equal to the transverse diameter of the opening of the reflector 2 at the height of the second focus "b".
- the wings 7 meet at an angle at the axis of rotation "B" of the cover 4.
- Each wing 7 comprises at least one opaque active portion which is intended to prevent a portion of the light rays to pass through when the wing 7 is interposed vertically between the lamp and the second home "b".
- the free edge 5 'and 6' of these wings form a cutting edge portion, intended, in one of the positions of the cache portion which carries it, to form the cut line without the beam.
- the cache may comprise a first optically active portion 5, called primary cut-off cache.
- the primary cutout cover 5 is driven by a gear 8 allowing its rotation.
- the primary cut-off cover 5 comprises an axis 9, called the main axis of the cover, intended to accommodate one or more other optically active parts, for example a secondary cut-off cover 6 ( figure 5 ).
- the secondary cut-off cover 6 comprises for this purpose a tube 10 in which is inserted the axis 9 of the primary cut-off cover 5.
- the secondary cutout cover 6 has a free rotation and independent of that of the primary cutoff cover 5, thanks to a gear 11 for controlling its rotation.
- the secondary cut-off cover 6 comprises, like the primary cut-off cover 5, a plurality of optically active wings 7 capable of forming a cut-off in the beam emitted by the optical module 1.
- Each cut of the secondary cover 6 makes it possible to form with a cut of the primary cache 5 the cut that will be projected by the elliptical system.
- the junction between the primary cut-off cover 5 and the secondary cut-off cover 6, that is to say the junction between the flanges 7 of the primary cut-off cover 5 and the fins 7 of the secondary cut-off cover 6, is preferably offset from the optical axis "A". This gives a greater precision on the cut at the optical axis "A", and it avoids projecting light leaks on the road, so as not to dazzle drivers of vehicles traveling in the opposite direction.
- the primary cut-off cover 5 Even more preferentially, it is the primary cut-off cover 5, and in particular its cutting edge, which extends beyond the longitudinal optical axis "A", which allows greater precision.
- the dimension chain and the games are indeed less important on the primary cut-off cover 5, which carries the other parts.
- the figure 6 thus illustrates different types of cuts obtained by combining different wing profiles 7 of the primary cut-off cover 5 and the secondary cut-off cover 6.
- the primary cut-off cover 5 may for example have six wings 7 of type 1 to type 6 and the secondary cut-off cover 6 may have four wings 7 of type A to type D.
- the number and shape of cutting cuts are chosen according to the form of cuts required, especially according to country regulations.

Description
La présente invention a pour objet un module optique pour dispositif d'éclairage automobile du type projecteur, le module étant placé au sein d'un véhicule automobile. Elle s'applique plus particulièrement aux modules optiques appelés modules elliptiques comprenant une source de lumière associée à un réflecteur et fermés par un élément dioptrique du type lentille convergente, par exemple une lentille de type plan-convexe.The present invention relates to an optical module for automotive lighting device projector type, the module being placed within a motor vehicle. It applies more particularly to optical modules called elliptical modules comprising a light source associated with a reflector and closed by a dioptric element of the convergent lens type, for example a plano-convex type lens.
Le domaine de l'invention est, d'une façon générale, celui dispositifs destinés à l'éclairage de la route ou à la signalisation, parmi lesquels on trouve essentiellement:
- des feux de position, d'intensité et de portée faible,
- des feux de route longue portée, et des feux de complément de type longue portée, dont la zone de vision sur la route avoisine 200 mètres, et qui doivent être éteints lorsque l'on croise un autre véhicule afin de ne pas éblouir son conducteur; ce sont des faisceaux sans coupure,
- des feux antibrouillard,
- des feux de croisement, ou codes, d'intensité importante et de portée sur la route avoisinant 70 mètres,
- des projecteurs perfectionnés, dits bifonctions, qui cumulent les fonctions de feux de croisement et de feu de route en incorporant un cache amovible,
- des dispositifs de signalisation, par exemple de type clignotants.
- position, intensity and low range lights,

Il existe deux familles principales de modules optiques, qui correspondent à deux agencements distincts de différents éléments, et qui sont susceptibles d'intervenir dans le dispositif selon l'invention. On comprend par module optique un système optique comprenant au moins une source lumineuse, par exemple une lampe halogène ou une lampe xénon, disposée dans un réflecteur, et qui est de préférence autonome, c'est-à-dire qui est apte à être allumé ou éteint séparément des autres modules optiques du dispositif d'éclairage dans lequel il est installé si ce dernier comporte plusieurs modules optiques.There are two main families of optical modules, which correspond to two different arrangements of different elements, and which may be involved in the device according to the invention. An optical module comprises an optical system comprising at least one light source, for example a halogen lamp or a xenon lamp, arranged in a reflector, and which is preferably autonomous, that is to say which is able to be lit. or turned off separately from other optical modules lighting device in which it is installed if the latter comprises a plurality of optical modules.
Les deux familles principales de modules optiques sont les suivantes:
- La première famille est celle des modules optiques dits elliptiques. Dans ce type de projecteurs, une tache de concentration lumineuse est engendrée par une source lumineuse disposée dans un miroir, ou réflecteur. Ces modules sont dit elliptiques car ils présentent deux foyers, les rayons partant de l'un des foyers et étant réfléchis par le réflecteur convergeant vers le deuxième foyer. Par exemple, le réflecteur peut être une portion d'ellipsoïde. Par exemple, la source lumineuse est disposée au premier foyer, ou foyer objet, d'un miroir en forme d'ellipsoïde, ladite tache se formant au second foyer, ou foyer image, du miroir. La tache de concentration lumineuse est ensuite projetée sur la route par une lentille convergente, par exemple une lentille de type plan-convexe.
- La seconde famille est celle des modules optiques dits paraboliques. Dans ce type de modules optiques, un faisceau lumineux est engendré par une source lumineuse de petite dimension disposée dans un réflecteur, ou miroir. La projection sur la route des rayons lumineux réfléchis par un réflecteur approprié permet d'obtenir directement un faisceau lumineux obéissant aux différentes contraintes imposées par les normes. Cette famille de modules optiques inclut les projecteurs dits à surface libre, ou surface complexe, qui permettent d'obtenir directement un faisceau lumineux présentant une ligne de coupure désirée.
- The first family is that of so-called elliptical optical modules. In this type of projectors, a spot of light concentration is generated by a light source arranged in a mirror, or reflector. These modules are said to be elliptical because they have two foci, the rays starting from one of the foci and being reflected by the reflector converging towards the second focus. For example, the reflector may be an ellipsoid portion. For example, the light source is disposed at the first focus, or object focus, of an ellipsoid-shaped mirror, said spot forming at the second focus, or image focus, of the mirror. The spot of light concentration is then projected onto the road by a convergent lens, for example a plano-convex lens.
- The second family is that of so-called parabolic optical modules. In this type of optical modules, a light beam is generated by a small light source disposed in a reflector, or mirror. The projection on the road of the light rays reflected by a suitable reflector makes it possible to directly obtain a light beam obeying the various constraints imposed by the standards. This family of optical modules includes projectors said free surface, or complex surface, which can directly obtain a light beam having a desired cutoff line.
La présente invention concerne les modules optiques de la première famille.The present invention relates to optical modules of the first family.
L'invention s'intéresse en outre aux modules optiques équipés d'un cache fixe ou mobile apte à intercepter au moins partiellement, selon sa position, le faisceau lumineux émis par l'ensemble source lumineuse/réflecteur. La forme du bord supérieur du cache permet de délimiter la coupure voulue dans le faisceau par imagerie avec la lentille convergente. Le cache mobile, sur commande et grâce à la présence d'un moteur, peut prendre différentes positions par rapport à la source lumineuse, dont au moins une position dite active optiquement, c'est-à-dire une position où il occulte effectivement une partie du faisceau lumineux, notamment pour que le module émette un faisceau à coupure, comme un faisceau de type croisement (coupure oblique) ou anti-brouillard (coupure horizontale). Le cache peut ainsi présenter une ou plusieurs positions actives, par exemple deux, une pour la fonction croisement trafic à droite et une pour la fonction trafic à gauche, et aussi une fonction dite passive où il n'occulte pas le faisceau lumineux, permettant ainsi au module d'émettre des faisceaux lumineux sans coupure du type faisceau de route.The invention is also concerned with optical modules equipped with a fixed or movable cover adapted to intercept at least partially, depending on its position, the light beam emitted by the light source / reflector assembly. The shape of the upper edge of the cache makes it possible to define the desired cut in the beam by imaging with the convergent lens. The mobile cover, on command and thanks to the presence of a motor, can take different positions relative to the light source, including at least one so-called optically active position, that is to say a position where it actually obscures a part of the light beam, in particular for the module to emit a cut-off beam, such as a cross beam (oblique cut) or anti-fog (horizontal cut). The cache may thus have one or more active positions, for example two, one for the traffic crossing function on the right and one for the traffic function on the left, and also a so-called passive function where it does not block the light beam, thus allowing the module to emit light beams without interruption of the road beam type.

L'invention a ainsi pour objet un module optique elliptique pour dispositif d'éclairage et/ou de signalisation pour véhicule automobile, apte à émettre au moins un type de faisceau lumineux vers l'avant selon la direction globale d'un axe optique longitudinal, et comportant :

- a light source, arranged in the vicinity of the first focus,
- a convergent lens disposed at the front of the reflector, and
- a cover, arranged in the vicinity of the second focus and rotatably mounted about an axis of rotation orthogonal to the optical axis, said cover having at least two optically active portions each provided with at least one optically active edge capable of forming a cut in the beam emitted by the optical module, one of the cut edges being adapted to be positioned at the second focus.
Dans le module optique selon l'invention, l'une des parties du cache comprend un axe, appelé axe principal, sur lequel sont montées en rotation les autres parties du cache. La réalisation mécanique du cache est ainsi facilitée.In the optical module according to the invention, one of the parts of the cache comprises an axis, called the main axis, on which are rotated the other parts of the cache. The mechanical realization of the cache is thus facilitated.
Les différentes parties du cache peuvent être agencées de manière à ce que la ou les jonctions entre les bords de coupure des différentes parties soit décalée(s) transversalement par rapport l'axe optique longitudinal.The different parts of the cover can be arranged so that the junction or junctions between the cut edges of the different parts is offset (s) transversely to the longitudinal optical axis.
Dans ce cas, la partie du cache, y compris son bord de coupure, comprenant l'axe sur lequel sont montées en rotation les autres parties du cache se prolonge avantageusement au-delà de l'axe optique longitudinal.In this case, the part of the cover, including its cutting edge, comprising the axis on which are rotatably mounted the other parts of the cover advantageously extends beyond the longitudinal optical axis.
Chaque partie du cache peut comprendre un engrenage permettant le pilotage de sa rotation.Each part of the cover may include a gear for controlling its rotation.
La cache peut comprendre uniquement deux parties.The cache can only include two parts.
Chacune des parties du cache montées en rotation sur l'axe principal peut présenter une portion tubulaire dans laquelle est inséré l'axe principal.Each of the parts of the cover mounted in rotation on the main axis may have a tubular portion in which is inserted the main axis.
La partie du cache comprenant l'axe principal peut être formée venue de matière en une seule pièce avec cet axe principal. Les autres parties du cache peuvent présenter une portion tubulaire dans laquelle est inséré l'axe principal.The part of the cover comprising the main axis can be formed integrally in one piece with this main axis. The other parts of the cover may have a tubular portion in which is inserted the main axis.
Le cache peut être disposé dans un support fixé entre le réflecteur et la lentille.The cover can be arranged in a support fixed between the reflector and the lens.
Ledit axe principal peut être perpendiculaire à l'axe optique longitudinal.Said main axis may be perpendicular to the longitudinal optical axis.
L'invention a également pour objet un dispositif d'éclairage et/ou de signalisation comprenant un module optique décrit ci-dessus.The invention also relates to a lighting and / or signaling device comprising an optical module described above.

Il s'agit ici d'une lampe à décharge qui est montée dans le réflecteur 2 par l'intermédiaire d'un orifice de montage prévu au sommet arrière du réflecteur 2. L'invention pourrait toutefois s'appliquer à des dispositifs comportant des diodes électroluminescentes, comme par exemple au dispositif du document
