Indicator lamp able to generate an inclined flux, for a motor vehicle

The invention relates to an installation for signalling the deceleration of a motor vehicle. It comprises a signal lamp having an illuminating area divided into luminous sections, each equipped with its own light source, and means for controlling the lighting of a number of light sources which increases with the deceleration of the vehicle. The luminous intensity of the illuminating area remains substantially constant whatever the number of lighting sections lit. This constant intensity can be obtained by supplying the light sources with substantially constant power. The means for controlling the lighting of the light sources comprise a deceleration sensor and connection means which selectively link the light sources to an electrical-energy source as a function of an output signal from the sensor.

Installation for signalling a motor vehicle deceleration comprising a light emitting a steady light flow

In an assembly of at least one headlight and an indicator light for a motor vehicle, the headlight includes a lamp which is mounted in a reflector, and the indicator light, which is situated adjacent to the headlight, includes a lamp and reflective means for flux recuperation. The headlight and the indicator light also have adjacent lenses. The reflective means comprise a first reflector cooperating with the lamp of the indicator light, and a second reflector, the lamp and the first reflector of the indicator light being disposed behind the reflector of the headlight, and the second reflector of the indicator light is disposed in line with the lens of the indicator light.
