  • the vehicle is equipped with the above vehicle lamp.
  • the vehicle pixelated lighting device, the vehicle lamp and the vehicle involved in the present disclosure have the following beneficial effects:
  • a light-transmitting element that covers at least part of the boundary of the pixel illumination light source is set at the boundary of the pixel illumination light source to change the deflection angle of the light entering the light-transmitting element, so that the light is deflected relative to the original propagation direction and forms a deflected light entering the lens group.

  • the light-transmitting element makes the light entering the light-transmitting element be directed to extend towards the outside away from the center of the pixelated light shape, thus realizing blurring of the boundary of the pixelated light shape, so that the pixelated light shape transitions softly and smoothly at its blurred boundary, and the superimposed shape transitions uniformly and has good continuity at the superimposed boundary after superimposing the pixelated light shape and the non-pixelated light shape.

  • the light-emitting direction of the vehicle pixelated lighting device is defined as a forward direction, that is, the light source in the vehicle pixelated lighting device emits light forward, and the vehicle pixelated lighting device forms a pixelated light shape on its front side.
  • dispersion refers to the property that the refractive index of a material changes with the frequency of incident light.
  • white light includes seven monochromatic lights: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo and violet, and because the refractive indices of these seven monochromatic lights are different, incident white light will be dispersed into these seven colors after refraction.

Generally speaking, short-wave inward dispersion and long-wave outward dispersion occur in lenses with positive optical power, while short-wave outward dispersion and long-wave inward dispersion occur in negative optical power lenses. Therefore, combining these two types of lenses can compensate for and correct dispersion.
  • Chromatic aberration refers to the difference in image caused by different monochromatic lights having different refractive indices when imaging with white light, so that different monochromatic lights have different propagation paths, resulting in the difference in optical paths caused by different monochromatic lights.
  • the vehicle pixelated lighting device includes a pixel illumination light source 10, a light-transmitting element 30, and a lens group 20 arranged in sequence from rear to front along the light-emitting direction.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 is fixedly arranged between the pixel illumination light source 10 and the lens group 20.
  • the light emitted forward by the pixel illumination light source 10 can form a pixelated light shape after passing through the lens group 20.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 has a light incident surface facing the pixel illumination light source 10 and a light-emitting surface facing the lens group 20.
  • multiple light-emitting units 12 arranged in a matrix are provided on a front surface of the pixel illumination light source 10.
  • the light-emitting surfaces of the multiple light-emitting units 12 form an overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10.
  • the overall light-emitting surface 11 faces the light incident surface of the lens group 20 and the light incident surface of the light-transmitting element 30.
  • the outer edge of the pixel illumination light source 10 is its boundary.
  • the outer edge of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10 is its boundary.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 is arranged around the boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10 and covers at least a portion of the boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10, that is, corresponding inner edges of the light-transmitting element 30 are located within the portion of the boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 covered by the light-transmitting element 30.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 may cover the lower boundary, upper boundary, left boundary, or right boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10; or the light-transmitting element 30 may simultaneously cover both the lower and upper boundaries of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10; or the light-transmitting element 30 may simultaneously cover all the boundaries of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10.
  • the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10 emits forward light rays. Some of these light rays enter the light-transmitting element 30 and are herein defined as incident rays P1 as shown in Figure 15 .
  • the pixel illumination light source 10 emits forward the incident rays P1 from a certain light-emitting point A, then the light-transmitting element 30 is used to change the deflection angle of the incident rays P1 entering it from the pixel illumination light source 10 and correspondingly emit deflected rays P2 after deflection to lens group 20.
  • the intersection points A1 and A2 between backward extension lines of the deflected rays P2 and a plane where the overall light-emitting surface 11 is located are located on outer sides of the light-emitting point A of the corresponding incident rays P1, i.e., the intersection points A1 and A2 are farther away from the center of the overall light-emitting surface 11 than the light-emitting point A.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 When the light-transmitting element 30 is set only at the upper boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10 and covers only the upper boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10, the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10 emits forward light rays, and the incident rays P1 emitted from the upper boundary portion of the overall light-emitting surface 11 enter the light-transmitting element 30, as shown in Figure 15 , the light-transmitting element 30 changes the deflection angle of these incident rays P1 and emits deflected rays P2, and then makes these deflected rays P2 enter the lens group 20.
  • Two deflected rays P2 respectively enter the lens group 20 along deflected propagation directions S2 and Y2. From Figure 15 , it can be seen that the two incident rays P1 emit forward from the light-emitting point A, A1 is the intersection point of the reverse extension line of a first deflected light ray P2 corresponding to a first incident ray P1 along the S2 direction and the plane where the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10 is located.
  • A2 is the intersection point of the reverse extension line of a second deflected light ray P2 corresponding to a second incident ray P1 along the Y2 direction and the plane where the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10 is located.
  • Both the intersection points A1 and A2 are higher than the light-emitting point A, i.e., both the intersection points A1 and A2 are located outside the light-emitting point A and farther away from the center of the overall light-emitting surface 11 than the light-emitting point A. Since the lens group 20 shows inverted images, images of both the intersection points A1 and A2 on the screen are lower than the image of the light-emitting point A, i.e., images of both the intersection points A1 and A2 are located outside the image of the light-emitting point A, so there will be light below the original spot, resulting in a blurring effect.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 when the light-transmitting element 30 is set only at the lower boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10 and covers only the lower boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10, the light-transmitting element 30 deflects the light rays upward, causing light to appear above the original light spot of the pixelated light shape and achieving a blurring effect of the upper boundary of the pixelated light shape.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 When the light-transmitting element 30 is set only at the left boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10 and covers only the left boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10, the light-transmitting element 30 deflects the light rays to the right, causing light to appear on the right side of the original light spot of the pixelated light shape and achieving a blurring effect of the right boundary of the pixelated light shape.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 When the light-transmitting element 30 is set only at the right boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10 and covers only the right boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 of the pixel illumination light source 10, the light-transmitting element 30 deflects the light rays to the left, causing light to appear on the left side of the original light spot of the pixelated light shape and achieving a blurring effect of the left boundary of the pixelated light shape.
  • the present application provides a light-transmitting element 30 that covers at least part of the boundaries of the pixel illumination light source 10 at a boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10 to change the deflection angles of the light rays entering the light-transmitting element 30. This causes these light rays to be deflected and form deflected light rays P2 that enter the lens group 20.
  • the intersection points of the reverse extension lines of the deflected light rays P2 and the plane where the overall light-emitting surface 11 is located are located outside the light-emitting point of the incident light rays P1 corresponding to the deflected light P2.
  • these light rays after passing through the lens group 20, these light rays have a larger exit angle, which makes it possible for the light rays entering the light-transmitting element 30 to extend directionally toward the outside of the pixelated light shape, thereby achieving a blurring effect of the boundary of the pixelated light shape and makes the pixelated light shape transition softly at its blurred boundary.
  • the superimposed shape transitions uneven and has poor continuity at the superimposed boundary c1 after superimposing the pixelated light shape and the non-pixelated light shape, as shown in Figures 20 and 21 .
  • the present application does not block the light rays and therefore does not lose energy, thereby increasing light energy utilization efficiency.
  • the illumination range of the blurred pixelated light shape is larger, the blurring effect will also expand the illumination range of the whole light shape.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 is set at the boundary, so imaging light shapes of pixels at central areas will not be blurred. Pixels at the boundary are blurred along the boundary direction without affecting mutual shading between pixels, i.e., the blurred light will not enter adjacent pixel areas.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 covers at least the upper boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10 and at least blurs the lower boundary of the pixelated light shape to make the transition on the road surface smoother and better connected to the auxiliary low beam shape. More preferably, in one embodiment, as shown in Figures 11, 12 and 14 , the light-transmitting element 30 is a loop member that covers all the boundaries of the pixel illumination light source 10. When no light-transmitting element 30 is set up, the pixelated light shape formed is as shown in Figure 18 , and the boundary of the entire light shape is sharp.
  • the pixelated light shape formed is as shown in Figure 19 , which blurs the entire circle of boundaries of the pixelated light shape and makes the entire boundary of the pixelated light shape transition softly.
  • Figure 20 a pixelated light shape with a low beam cutoff line whose boundary is blurred is formed.
  • the road simulation light shape formed by superimposing a pixelated light shape with a blurred boundary and a non-pixelated light shape is shown in Figure 21 . It can be seen from Figures 20 and 21 that there is a uniform transition and good continuity at their superimposed boundary c1.
  • a light-transmitting element 30 that covers only the upper boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 may be set at the upper boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10. In this case, light rays emitted from the upper boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 will be deflected downward while light rays emitted from the lower boundary and left and right boundaries will still propagate in their original directions without deflection. This will not affect illumination areas on the upper side and left and right sides.
  • a light-transmitting element 30 that covers only the lower boundary of the overall light-emitting surface 11 may also be set at the lower boundary of the pixel illumination light source 10 to blur the upper boundary of the pixelated light shape to avoid discomfort caused by observing sharp boundaries while driving in tunnels. Therefore, depending on specific needs for blurring boundaries of pixelated light shapes, a light-transmitting element 30 can be set at corresponding boundaries of the pixel illumination light source 10.
  • the light-transmitting element 30 is a silicone component, that is, the light-transmitting element 30 is made of silicone. While realizing the blurring of the boundary of the pixelated light shape, it can also effectively reduce the manufacturing cost. Preferably, the closer the light-transmitting element 30 is to the pixel illumination light source 10, the better. In one embodiment, the distance between the pixel illumination light source 10 and the light-transmitting element 30 is less than or equal to 0.5mm and preferably 0.5mm to prevent contact or overheating. In other embodiments, the distance between the pixel illumination light source 10 and the light-transmitting element 30 may also be greater than 0.5mm.
  • the light-emitting surface of the light-transmitting element 30 may be a flat surface, or a curved surface with patterns.
  • the light incident surface of the light-transmitting element 30 may be a flat surface, or a curved surface with patterns.
  • the light-transmitting elements 30 distributed on upper and lower sides or left and right sides of the pixel illumination light source 10 may be symmetrically arranged or not, as long as the light incident surface and light-emitting surface of the light-transmitting element 30 are matched to adjust the light-emitting angle of the light entering it so that the light is deflected to the desired light-emitting angle. Based on this, there are many specific forms of light-transmitting elements 30.
  • the light incident surface on the rear side of the light-transmitting element 30 includes a vertical plane segment 32 extending up and down and an oblique plane segment 34 extending obliquely, and the light-emitting surface on the front side of the light-transmitting element 30 includes multiple oblique plane segments 34.
  • the light incident surface on the rear side of the light-transmitting element 30 includes a vertical plane segment 32 extending up and down and being a flat structure
  • the light-emitting surface on the front side of the light-transmitting element 30 includes multiple arc-shaped surface segments 31 and multiple horizontally extending horizontal plane segments 33.

  • the light-emitting surface on the front side of the light-transmitting element 30 includes an oblique plane segment 34 extending obliquely.
  • the pixel illumination light source 10 is a matrix-type LED light source with tens to hundreds of pixels, which has 100 pixels in one embodiment.
  • the size of the pixel is about 0.5mm in length, which can make the clarity of the formed pixel image higher, and then can realize higher precision control of the light shape formed after the pixel image is projected out.
  • the boundary of the formed dark part and the change of the dark part position are also more delicate and smooth, which can better avoid dazzling or blindness to pedestrians or drivers.
  • the rectangular matrix arrangement of the LEDs provides a wider light shape to illuminate the areas on both sides of the road, which is conducive to drivers' observation of pedestrians and road signs on both sides of the road.
  • the vehicle pixelated lighting device further includes a lens holder 40, a circuit board 50, and a heat sink 60.

  • the present application limits the lens group 20 in the light-emitting direction through the first limiting ring 70, the second limiting ring 80 and the beam limiting element 90 without additional limiting components inside the lens holder 40. It can reduce the production cost to some extent by reducing requirements for the production accuracy on the lens holder 40.
  • the beam limiting element 90 is threadedly connected to the outer periphery at the front end of the lens holder 40, thus the beam limiting element 90 and the lens holder 40 are detachably connected with each other for easy installation of the first lens 21, the first limiting ring 70, the second lens 22, the second limiting ring 80 and the third lens 23 into the lens holder 40 in sequence.
  • the beam limiting element 90 is preferably an aperture stop, which determines the amount of light beams passing through the lens group 20.
  • the rear end of the outer wall of the lens holder 40 may include a mounting seat that bends and extends outwardly.
  • the circuit board 50 is mounted on the mounting seat, and the heat sink 60 is mounted on the rear side of the circuit board 50 for heat dissipation of the pixel illumination light source 10.
  • An opening may also be provided on the mounting seat for placing connectors to realize power supply to the circuit board 50 and the pixel illumination light source 10, and also play a role in ventilation and heat dissipation to improve the heat dissipation power.
  • the outer diameter of the first lens 21 is smaller than that of the second lens 22, and the outer diameter of the second lens 22 is smaller than that of the third lens 23, which is in tune with the light-emitting direction to ensure the efficiency of light transmission and improve illumination brightness.
  • the Abbe numbers of the materials of the first lens 21 and the third lens 23 are both greater than that of the material of the second lens 22, which can help eliminate chromatic aberration.
  • An Abbe number is a dispersion coefficient, which is used to measure the degree of dispersion of light in a transparent medium.
  • the smaller the Abbe number of a medium the more severe its chromatic dispersion; conversely, the larger the Abbe number of a medium, the less severe its chromatic dispersion.
  • the material of the first lens 21 is optical glass, such as optical glass with grade H-K9L
  • the material of the second lens 22 is polycarbonate (PC)
  • the material of the third lens 23 is polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA). Using these materials can better eliminate the chromatic aberration.
  • a part or all of the outer peripheral surface of the first lens 21, a part or all of the outer peripheral surface of the second lens 22, and a part or all of the outer peripheral surface of the third lens 23 are respectively abutted and matched with the inner wall of the lens holder 40 to limit the radial movement of the first lens 21, the second lens 22 and the third lens 23.
  • a lens flange structure 231 is provided on the outer peripheral side of the third lens 23. The outer peripheral surface of the lens flange structure 231 is abutted with the inner wall of the lens holder 40, which can ensure that the part used for light transmission will not be blocked by the connecting structure on the lens holder 40, thereby ensuring the efficiency of light transmission and improving the illumination brightness.
  • the lens flange structure 231 is also used to abut with a light beam limiting element 90 and the third limiting portion 43 to fix and limit the third lens 23 between the light beam limiting element 90 and the third limiting portion 43.
  • a light incident surface and/or a light-emitting surface of at least one of the first lens 21, the second lens 22, and the third lens 23 is provided with an anti-reflection film, which can improve the transmittance of the light incident surface or the light-emitting surface provided with the anti-reflection film, enhance the transmittance performance and improve the illumination brightness.
  • a light-shielding layer is provided on an outer peripheral surface of the first lens 21, an outer peripheral surface of the second lens 22, and the lens flange structure 231 of the third lens 23 to reduce light emitted from edges of the first lens 21, the second lens 22, and the third lens 23.
  • the light-shielding layer may be formed by sandblasting black processing to prevent stray light; or alternatively, the light-shielding layer may be formed by plating an anti-reflection film to prevent stray light, so that a light shape formed by projecting a pixel image can be consistent with the pixel image without generating scattered spots.
  • the present disclosure effectively overcomes various shortcomings in the existing technology and has high industrial utilization value.
