The present invention relates to an optical element of a vehicle light module, the light module including at least one light source, the rays emitted from which pass through a transparent optical surface of the optical element and emerge in the form of a light beam, the transparent optical surface extending mainly along a transverse axis between a first transverse end and a second transverse end, with the optical element including at least one means for attachment to the light module at each of the transverse ends of the transparent optical surface.

Optical element and light module of a motor vehicle equipped with such an optical element

Lighting device, in particular for a motor vehicle, including at least two lighting modules and at least one support member supporting the lighting modules. Each lighting module includes at least one light source capable of emitting light rays and an optical system arranged, on a specific optical axis of the lighting module, across the light rays and configured to project a light beam. The support member supporting the different lighting modules is, on the one hand, rigidly connected to a closing element incorporating at least two optical systems and, on the other hand, connected to at least a first adjustment system enabling one of the lighting modules to move independently relative to at least the other lighting module.

Lighting device for a motor vehicle

The object of the invention is a lens for a lighting and/or signaling device of a motor vehicle including a first layer of material (), arranged on a first face () of which is a second layer of material () with additional thickness, said second layer extending partially over the first layer so as to have one end edge () overhanging an exposed portion () of the first layer of material. The exposed portion () of the first layer of material (), which is not covered by the second layer of material, includes on said first face () a notch () which extends along said end edge () of the second layer of material ().

Lens for a lighting and/or signaling device of a motor vehicle

A method for obtaining a luminous device the turned-on aspect of which is different from the turned-off aspect, the device including a mask that is able to be partially passed through by light, one or more light sources, and a closing outer lens that is placed downstream of the mask. The one or more light sources and the mask are arranged with respect to one another so that the mask directly or indirectly receives the light rays emitted by the one or more light sources and so that only some of these emitted light rays pass through the mask. The method includes a step of arranging the one or more light sources in the luminous device in number and in power so that the light rays exiting from the luminous device form a signalling light beam.

Method for obtaining a luminous device the turned-off aspect of which is different from the turned-on aspect

A luminous motor-vehicle device. The luminous device includes: a segmenting part including a plurality of through-cavities; a plurality of light sources upstream of the segmenting part; a mask that blocks at least one through-cavity of the segmenting part, said mask being able to be partially passed through by light. The luminous device is arranged so that each through-cavity directly or indirectly receives light from at least one separate light source.

Luminous device for lighting the road, signalling or interior lighting

The invention relates to a method for assembling a first and a second part of a lighting device for a vehicle by mirror welding, including a step of supplying the parts wherein each part comprises, in the interface area thereof for contact with the other part, a weld bead intended to come into contact against the weld bead of the other part during the mirror welding, the weld bead of at least one of the parts is provided with a plurality of expander ribs (N) spread out along the weld bead, in such a way as to locally expand the width of the weld bead.
