The present disclosure refers to a lighting unit, in particular in form of a RGB light assembly, comprising one or more lighting segments, wherein each lighting segment comprises several light sources emitting light rays into one or more light guides merging into one light out-coupling surface for guiding the outputted light rays to a lens providing a light output. The light unit may be provided in two alternatives either the light sources directly face the lens such that light rays are guided through the light guide to pass the lens to light up a surface, or the light sources emit light rays to enter the light guide to be guided to a reflector which focuses the light rays into a light window of a mask to light up the lens in the region of the light window.

Lighting unit, vehicle component and vehicle

The present invention relates to a light assembly for a vehicle comprising: a housing; a lens covering the housing; a plurality of light sources arranged in the housing; wherein the plurality of light sources comprises at least one first light source, at least one second light source and at least one third light source; and a reflector body mounted in the housing; wherein the reflector body comprises a reflector element and different zones for each of the at least one light sources; wherein light emitted by the at least one first light source is captured by the reflector element which reflects the light towards the lens, the lens directing the light generally downward towards the ground area when the light assembly is attached to the vehicle, light emitted by the at least one second light source is passed through an aperture in the reflector body without reflection of the emitted light, and light emitted from the at least one third light source is captured by the reflector body which reflects and directs the light, in particular, horizontally towards the lens, with the lens in particular directing the light generally horizontal, and a light collector is located between the reflector body and the housing; wherein the light collector captures and transmits the light emitted from at least one of the at least one light sources, a rear view device and a vehicle with at least one light assembly.
