Abstract

L'objet de la présente invention est un dispositif d'éclairage qui présente une forte luminosité, en particulier une forte luminosité avant, qui présente un haut rendement d'utilisation optique, dont les dimensions sont faciles à agrandir, qui résout une luminosité irrégulière dans la direction avant sans alignement strict entre une source lumineuse et d'autres éléments, qui présente un grand angle de visibilité, et qui est avantageux en ce qui concerne la productivité et la faible épaisseur. Un angle de vision dans la direction de largeur est limité par un premier moyen de commande de direction de faisceau lumineux pour collecter l'énergie avant sur la direction avant et un angle dans la direction de hauteur est limité par un second moyen de commande de direction de faisceau lumineux disposé sur une surface saillante du premier moyen de commande de direction de faisceau lumineux pour collecter l'énergie avant sur la direction avant alors que, dans le même temps, l'angle de vision est élargi de façon appropriée dans la direction de largeur limitée par le premier moyen de commande de direction de faisceau lumineux, ce qui permet de résoudre le problème.
