Light device for a motor vehicle
Light device for a motor vehicle comprising: a support; at least one light module, said light module being mounted to pivot about at least one axis on the support by means of at least one pivot link between the light module and the support, said pivot link comprising an elastically deformable element arranged to allow a pivoting of the light module in relation to the support about said axis; at least one setting means for the light module arranged to allow a pivoting of the light module in relation to the support about said axis when the setting means is actuated; a constraint means arranged to hold the light module in position in relation to the support in the absence of actuation of the setting means.
1. A light device for a motor vehicle comprising:
a support;
at least one light module, said light module being mounted to pivot about at least one axis on the support by means of at least one pivot link between the light module and the support, said pivot link comprising a threaded rod and an elastically deformable element arranged to allow a pivoting of the light module in relation to the support about said axis;
at least one setting means for the light module arranged to allow a pivoting of the light module in relation to the support about said axis when the setting means is actuated; and
a constraint means arranged to hold the light module in position in relation to the support in the absence of actuation of the setting means,
wherein the elastically deformable element is disposed around the threaded rod and is compressed by the pivoting of the light module.
2. The light device according to claim 1 , wherein the pivot link further comprises a locking nut.
3. The light device according to claim 2 , wherein the elastically deformable element is adapted to absorb the angular variations of the light module during the setting of the position of said light module by the setting means.
4. The light device according to claim 2 , wherein said light device comprises a setting means for a vertical setting of the light module and a setting means for a horizontal setting of said light module.
5. The light device according to claim 2 , wherein the constraint means is independent of the setting means.
6. The light device according to claim 2 , wherein the constraint means is incorporated in the setting means.
7. The light device according to claim 1 , wherein the elastically deformable element is adapted to absorb the angular variations of the light module during the setting of the position of said light module by the setting means.
8. The light device according to claim 1 , wherein said light device comprises a setting means for a vertical setting of the light module and a setting means for a horizontal setting of said light module.
9. The light device according to claim 1 , wherein the constraint means is independent of the setting means.
10. The light device according to claim 9 , wherein the setting means comprises a contact end with the support, said contact end having no sharp edge.
11. The light device according to claim 10 , wherein the constraint means is a spring.
12. The light device according to claim 9 , wherein the constraint means is a spring.
13. The light device according to claim 1 , wherein the constraint means is incorporated in the setting means.
14. The light device according to claim 13 , wherein the constraint means is a spring.
15. The light device according to claim 13 , wherein the setting means is secured to the support.
16. The light device according to claim 15 , wherein the setting means comprises a threaded rod and a screw pitch.
17. The light device according to claim 13 , wherein the setting means is secured to the light module.
18. The light device according to claim 17 , wherein the setting means comprises a threaded rod and a nut.
19. The light device according to claim 1 , wherein said light device comprises a plurality of light modules and is adapted to produce a segmented light beam made up of several light segments, that can be activated selectively, one light segment being generated by one light module.
20. A light device for a motor vehicle comprising:
a support;
at least one light module, said light module being mounted to pivot about at least one axis on the support by means of at least one pivot link between the light module and the support, said pivot link comprising an elastically deformable element arranged to allow a pivoting of the light module in relation to the support about said axis;
at least one setting means for the light module arranged to allow a pivoting of the light module in relation to the support about said axis when the setting means is actuated; and
a constraint means arranged to hold the light module in position in relation to the support in the absence of actuation of the setting means,
wherein said light device comprises a light module, called reference module, said reference module being mounted on the support by means of three pivot links, said at least one pivotingly mounted light module being set on the support in relation to said reference module.
