Rear lamp having moving infinity mirror effect
The present invention relates to a rear lamp which has a 3D light distribution effect so as to represent a sense of depth by the infinity mirror effect and, more specifically, to a rear lamp configured to produce a movable light distribution image.
1. A rear lamp having a moving infinity mirror effect, the rear lamp comprising:
a light source unit ( 102 ) configured to output light;
a lens unit ( 110 ) being a collimator lens, and comprising an incident unit ( 111 ) on which the light output from the light source unit ( 102 ) is incident, and an emission unit ( 114 ) through which light incident on the incident unit ( 111 ) is emitted to a light transmission unit ( 130 );
a diffusion unit ( 112 ) configured to scatter and diffuse the light emitted from the emission unit ( 114 ) so as to allow the light to be incident on the light transmission unit ( 130 );
the light transmission unit ( 130 ) being installed in a path of light emitted from the diffusion unit ( 112 ), the light transmission unit ( 130 ) being configured to transmit some of light incident thereon and to reflect remaining light;
a reflector ( 120 ) installed in a path of light reflected from the light transmission unit ( 130 ) so as to reflect light incident thereon back to the light transmission unit ( 130 ); and
a reflector driving unit configured to drive the reflector ( 120 ) so as to change an angle formed by the reflector ( 120 ) with the light transmission unit ( 130 ).
2. The rear lamp of claim 1 , wherein the reflector ( 120 ) has a reflective surface ( 121 ) formed as a spherical or aspherical surface having an arbitrary curvature.
3. The rear lamp of claim 1 , wherein the lens unit ( 110 ) further comprises an auxiliary emission unit ( 115 ) configured to output some of the light incident on the incident unit ( 111 ) as a light distribution pattern, rather than emitting the some of the light to the light transmitting unit ( 130 ).
4. The rear lamp of claim 3 , further comprising:
a microlens array ( 150 ) configured to output the light emitted from the auxiliary emission unit ( 115 ) as a predetermined light distribution pattern.
5. The rear lamp of claim 1 , further comprising:
a stopper ( 117 ) configured to limit an angular displacement amount of the reflector ( 120 ) obtained using the reflector driving unit.
