摘要： In an automotive lighting apparatus lighting components generate respective light fields. The lighting components are aligned one with the others such that the light fields combine in a lighting profile having cutoff regions meeting a predetermined cutoff criterion. An actuator is mechanically coupled to a corresponding one of the lighting components to aim that lighting component in a direction other than that in which the lighting component was aligned. A control component operate the actuator to aim the lighting component in the direction other than that in which the lighting component was aligned so that the light fields of the lighting components combine in another lighting profile having cutoff regions meeting another cutoff criterion.

摘要： A device for micro-adjustment of a lighting module has a first end including a thread to be driven into a surface of the lighting module. A second end of the device includes a micro-adjustment thread for attachment of a nut. A flange is positioned between the thread of the first end and the micro-adjustment adjustment thread of the second end. The device also includes a driving feature positioned between the flange and the micro-adjustment adjustment thread. The driving feature has an outer diameter that is smaller than an outer diameter of the flange.

摘要： A lighting assembly having a mounting structure, an LED mounted on the mounting structure, an optical device optically coupled to the LED, and a support structure for connecting the optical device to the mounting structure. The LED is enclosed within a space formed by the mounting structure, the support structure, and the optical device. The support structure absorbs thermal energy to reduce an operating temperature of the optical device. The optical device may be formed from a first material and the support structure may be formed from a different, second material.

摘要： A dual printed circuit board assembly for vehicle lights, the dual printed circuit board including a dual printed circuit board and a dual connector. The dual printed circuit board having a first substrate with a first layout, a second substrate opposite to the first substrate with a second layout, and a common panel that supports the first substrate on a first side and the second substrate on a second side, wherein the first layout is populable by a first plurality of light sources to be used in a first light of the vehicle lights and the second layout is populable by a second plurality of light sources to be used in a second light of the vehicle lights. The dual connector having a first jumper connector electrically connected to the first layout, and a second jumper connector opposite to the first jumper connector and electrically connected to the second layout.

摘要： A system and a method include a substrate wrinkled coating having a substrate, and a curing layer on top of the substrate. The curing layer includes a partially cured portion directly atop the substrate, and a completely cured portion having light-diffusive wrinkles on top of the partially cured portion. Properties of the light-diffusive wrinkles are controlled by one or more curing parameters, and a composition of the partially cured portion is the same as a composition of the completely cured portion.
