VEHICLE LIGHT BODY - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18522261 titled 'VEHICLE LIGHT BODY

Simplified Explanation

The patent application describes a lens structure for a vehicle light body that can adjust the size of the light emitting region.

  • The light emitting part of the lens structure includes introduction reflective and back-side reflective surfaces.
  • The introduction reflective surface reflects light from the base as parallel light to the Z direction.
  • The back-side reflective surfaces are arranged in the light emitting back surface and reflect the parallel light to the Y direction.
  • The light emitting surface emits light from the back-side reflective surface.

Key Features and Innovation

  • Introduction reflective surface reflects light as parallel light to the Z direction.
  • Back-side reflective surfaces reflect light to the Y direction.
  • Allows for adjustment of the size of the light emitting region.

Original Abstract Submitted

The purpose is to facilitate the adjustment of the size of a light emitting region of a lens structure. A lens structure for a vehicle light body includes a light emitting part and a base. The light emitting part includes an introduction reflective surface which causes light from the base to completely reflect as parallel light to the Z− direction, and a back-side reflective surface arranged to the Z direction in the light emitting back surface. Each back-side reflective surface has a normal direction sloping relative to the Z direction, and causes the parallel light from the introduction reflective surface to completely reflect to the Y+ direction. The light emitting surface emits light from the back-side reflective surface.
