LAMP MODULE FOR VEHICLE AND LAMP FOR VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240011612 titled 'LAMP MODULE FOR VEHICLE AND LAMP FOR VEHICLE INCLUDING THE SAME
Simplified Explanation
The disclosed patent application describes a lamp module for a vehicle that includes a first light source and a light guide part. The light guide part is located on the front side of the first light source and has a recessed area where the light output from the first light source is input. The light guide part is designed with a shape that is recessed upwards from its lower surface. The light guide part consists of a rear light guide section that defines the rear area of the light guide part and a front light guide section that is provided on the front side of the rear light guide section and defines the front area of the light guide part. The rear light guide section includes a total reflection surface, which the light output from the first light source reaches and that totally reflects the light, delivering it to the front light guide section. The total reflection surface is formed on the upper surface of the rear light guide section, and the light that was reflected by the total reflection surface and reached the front light guide section is output to the outside, forming a first light distribution pattern.
