Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a light beam projection device with a digital screen for a motor vehicle, and a light beam projector for automobile lighting, of the low beam or main beam type, provided with such a projection device.
  • Motor vehicle headlights are provided with several elements arranged in a housing so as to obtain a light beam at the exit of the headlight.
  • the elements of the housing comprise in particular a light source, for example one (or more) light-emitting diode(s), which emits light rays, and projection means capable of forming a light beam from light rays coming from the light source, for example consisting of the combination of a reflector placed near the light source and a lens at the exit of the projector.
  • the function of the reflector is to concentrate and direct the light rays coming from the light source to direct them towards the lens, which ends up forming the light beam for the projector.
  • the projection means can alternatively include only reflectors or only lenses.
  • projectors use mechanical means that move certain elements of the projector, or the entire projector, to change the direction of the light beam.
  • a second function concerns the possibility of producing adaptive lighting beams (or ADB, acronym for Adaptive Driving Beam in English), depending on traffic conditions and in particular of creating dark tunnels to isolate crossed vehicles in the projected beam. or tracking, so as not to dazzle them (anti-glare high beam function, also known by the acronym GFHB for Glare-Free High Beam).
  • ADB acronym for Adaptive Driving Beam in English
  • Micro-mirror array technology is particularly interesting today because it is technically mature and has a relatively affordable cost for use in automotive lighting, and makes it possible to develop a compact and precise lighting system, with a high number of pixels.
  • the invention therefore aims firstly to obtain a headlight configured to project a light beam which can be modified depending on the trajectory of the vehicle or the circumstances of driving (adaptive beam), and which does not use imposing mechanical means. or with significant travel to make these modifications.
  • the invention aims to make it possible to produce in a simple manner a high-performance projector (with good efficiency) using a digital screen of micro-mirror matrix type, by effectively exploiting the light sources.

  • the projection device is remarkable in that it comprises a digital screen configured to direct at least part of the incident light rays emitted by the source towards said optical projection system, the device further comprising means for focusing the light rays emitted by at least one light source on an area of the digital screen, and an intermediate assembly for projecting the light rays coming from the digital screen configured to illuminate the surface of said exit pupil.
  • the focusing means concentrate the light rays emitted by the source on an area of the digital screen, which acts like a mirror in order to direct them towards the optical projection system.
  • the digital screen makes it possible to control the apparent dimensions and orientation as well as the structure of the light beam by activating or deactivating pixels corresponding to a subdivision of its surface into elements capable of sending the light which reaches them outside the optical system projection comprising an optical output element, thus extinguishing a zone of the beam.
  • the invention makes it possible, on the one hand, to do without mechanical means with long clearance, and on the other hand to effectively use a digital screen thanks to the means of focusing the light rays on an area of the digital screen and the The intermediate projection assembly which produces an anamorphosis of the surface of the digital screen on the exit pupil of the optical projection system.
  • the invention also relates to a motor vehicle headlight comprising such a projection device.

  • the laser source is directed towards the diode placed on the support.
  • the diode also includes an upper wavelength conversion layer, for example of phosphor, to diffuse part of the laser light and convert another part to an appropriate color.
  • the laser source transmits additional light to the conversion element which adds to the amount of light coming from the diode without changing the dimensions or characteristics of the light source.
  • the light source 2 comprises only one or more laser sources or laser diodes.

This greatly improves the efficiency of the device with the aim of producing an automobile lighting beam.

  • the light rays are reflected in two possible directions: either towards the optical projection system and the output lens 3 around the optical projection axis 7, to form the beam projected by the projection device 1, or in a different direction of the projection optical system and the output lens 3.
  • each micro mirror can pivot between two fixed positions, a first position in which the light rays are reflected towards the optical projection system, and the output lens 3, and a second position in which the light rays are reflected in a direction different from the optical projection system, and the output lens 3.
