A vehicle lamp structure includes a housing located at the side of a vehicle and a lamp assembly located inside the housing. The lamp assembly includes a bezel fixed to the housing and a light diffusion unit located at the bezel. The light diffusion unit includes at least two surfaces and a light guide located inside the light diffusion unit. The light guide includes at least two optic surfaces configured to reflect light introduced thereinto. The lamp assembly also includes a light irradiation unit fastened to the light guide and being configured to irradiate light along the light guide.

A vehicle side and rear monitoring system with a fail-safe function and a method thereof are provided. The system provides a fail-safe function for safe driving of a vehicle when an abnormality occurs in a side monitoring system of the vehicle, and a technique that provides a continuous side field of view of the vehicle when an abnormality occurs in the side monitoring system in the vehicle equipped with an AVM system. In addition, the system and provides a technique that corrects the distortion of an image captured by an AVM camera and performs an image rotation transformation to provide the image captured by the AVM camera at the same angle as that provided by side-view cameras. Therefore, when an abnormality occurs in the side monitoring system, the vehicle side and rear monitoring system with a fail-safe function continuously provides the same image as captured by the side-view cameras.

Vehicle side and rear monitoring system with fail-safe function and method thereof

A back light unit for an outside mirror of a vehicle for optimizing a light-emitting structure of an LED to improve uniformity of light emission and brightness of light so that night visibility for a driver can be improved may include a bottom case, a light source seated on an inner lower side of the bottom case and emitting light when an electric power is supplied, a light guide plate positioned on an inner upper side of the bottom case and uniformly diffusing light emitted from the light source and transferring the light to a prism plate, the prism plate disposed in front of the light guide plate at the inner upper side of the bottom case and refracting and refocusing light from the light guide plate to increase surface brightness, and a top case coupled to a front end of the bottom case.

Disclosed is an apparatus for controlling a wiper motor for a wiper system. The wiper motor includes a double cam plate rotated by rotational force of a motor, and internal contact points formed by a P-terminal and an E-terminal disconnected/connected by the double cam plate. The double cam plate includes a first cam plate and a second cam plate for connecting the P-terminal and the E-terminal, and a center plate between the first and second cam plates. The apparatus includes a circuit line connecting the P-terminal with an off terminal of a low relay, and a control unit turning off the low relay simultaneously when the P-terminal and the E-terminal connected by the first cam plate are disconnected when a multifunctional switch is turned off. The apparatus decreases electromotive force applied to the wiper motor while the center plate is in contact with the P-terminal.

A side view mirror having a rotatable housing comprises a cover plate mounted on an exterior of a vehicle body, wherein an inside and outside of the cover plate are divided based on the vehicle body. A stay includes a lever disposed at an inner side of the cover plate. An up/down/left/right angle adjusting part is integrated with a connection bar, connected to the lever through the connection bar, and configured to be movable in up/down and left/right directions with respect to an outer surface of the cover plate. A folding supporting part is integrated with the up/down/left/right angle adjusting part at the outer surface of the up/down/left/right angle adjusting part and connected to the mirror-integrated housing. A mirror-integrated housing is foldably or unfoldably coupled with the folding supporting part, and an angle of the mirror-integrated housing is adjusted in up/down and left/right directions by the up/down/left/right angle adjusting part.
