Vehicle position lamp and headlight

摘要

A vehicle position lamp can include a plurality of circuit boards each mounting an LED. The vehicle position lamp can also include a first inner lens having a plurality of optical plates and at least one connecting plate connecting between the adjacent optical plates and a second inner lens. An inner surface of each of the optical plates can be located adjacent the respective one of the circuit boards so that an optical axis of a diffusing lens of each of the optical plates corresponds to a substantially optical axis of each of the LEDs. The second inner lens can be located adjacent the first inner lens that can be formed in various slender curved shapes. Thus, the disclosed subject matter can provide vehicle position lamps having a high visibility that are formed in various slender curved shapes such that match headlights, which fit both front corners of a vehicle.

1. A vehicle position lamp comprising:
a plurality of circuit boards each having a mounting surface and a rear surface; a plurality of white LEDs each having an optical axis and a light-emitting direction, and each of the white LEDs mounted on a respective mounting surface of the circuit boards; at least one first inner lens having a plurality of optical plates and at least one connecting plate connecting between adjacent optical plates, the plurality of optical plates each having an outer surface, an inner surface, and a diffusing lens having an optical axis, the at least one connecting plate having an outer surface and an inner surface, the outer surface of the at least one connecting plate located toward the outer surface of one of the adjacent optical plates and exposing the diffusing lens from the one of the adjacent optical plates in a direction toward the outer surface of the at least one connecting plate, the inner surface of the at least one connecting plate located toward the inner surface of an other one of the adjacent optical plates and exposing the diffusing lens from the other one of the adjacent optical plates in a direction toward the inner surface of the at least one connecting plate, the inner surface of the at least one connecting plate located toward the inner surface of another one of the adjacent optical plates and exposing the diffusing lens from the another one of the adjacent optical plates in a direction toward the inner surface of the at least one connecting plate, and the inner surface of each of the optical plates being located adjacent the respective one of the mounting surfaces of the circuit boards so that the optical axis of the diffusing lens of each of the optical plates substantially corresponds to the optical axis of each of the white LEDs, wherein the optical axis of the diffusing lens of each of the optical plates of the at least one first inner lens is located on substantially the same virtual surface; a second inner lens having an inner surface, an outer surface and a pair of edge portions, the second inner lens being located adjacent the at least one first inner lens so that the inner surface of the second inner lens faces both the diffusing lens of each of the optical plates of the at least one first inner lens and the outer surface of the at least one connecting plate of the at least one first inner lens, and the second inner lens intersecting with the optical axis of the diffusing lens of each of the optical plates of the at least one first inner lens, and the outer surface of the second inner lens including a plurality of linear prisms which extend along the substantially same virtual surface including the optical axis of the diffusing lens of each of the optical plates of the at least one first inner lens; and a housing located adjacent the plurality of circuit boards so as to cover the at least one first inner lens along with the second inner lens, and wherein the at least one first inner lens integrates the at least one connecting plate into the plurality of optical plates as a unitary package.
