Lighting device and motor vehicle
The present invention provides a lighting device including a light source, a printed circuit board, an optical face and a lens, with the light source being mounted on the printed circuit board, and at least a portion of light rays emitted by the light source towards the optical face are guided by the optical face and then emerge through the lens. At least one light shielding electronic element is also mounted on the printed circuit board, for blocking at least a portion of light rays emitted by the light source towards the lens, to prevent this portion of light rays from emerging through the lens directly.
1. A lighting device, comprising a light source, a printed circuit board, an optical face and a lens, with the light source being mounted on the printed circuit board, and at least a portion of light rays emitted by the light source towards the optical face are guided by the optical face and then emerge through the lens; and
at least one light shielding electronic element is also directly mounted on the printed circuit board, for blocking at least a portion of light rays emitted by the light source towards the lens, to prevent this portion of light rays from emerging through the lens directly, with the at least one light shielding electronic element being fitted to the printed circuit board by a through-hole mounting process or a surface mounting process.
2. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein a single light shielding electronic element is mounted on the printed circuit board, the light shielding electronic element having a larger size than the light source.
3. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein multiple light shielding electronic elements are mounted on the printed circuit board, the multiple light shielding electronic elements being arranged together to block at least a portion of light rays emitted by the light source towards the lens.
4. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein the minimum distance between the light source and an edge of the printed circuit board is greater than 4 mm.
5. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein the light shielding electronic element is not included in an electronic circuit.
6. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein the light shielding electronic element is arranged so as not to block light rays from the optical face.
7. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein the light source includes a light emitting diode.
8. The lighting device according to claim 1 , wherein the optical face includes a reflecting surface of a reflector.
9. A motor vehicle, comprising a lighting device including a light source, a printed circuit board, an optical face and a lens, with the light source being mounted on the printed circuit board, and at least a portion of light rays emitted by the light source towards the optical face are guided by the optical face and then emerge through the lens, and at least one light shielding electronic element is also directly mounted on the printed circuit board, for blocking at least a portion of light rays emitted by the light source towards the lens, to prevent this portion of light rays from emerging through the lens directly, with the at least one light shielding electronic element being fitted to the printed circuit board by a through-hole mounting process or a surface mounting process.
