Abstract

The present disclosure provides a matrix lighting device for a vehicle, including a light source module, a projection lens, a projection emergent space, and a projection image plane arranged successively along an optical axis direction; the light source module comprises a light source array unit, a light shield array unit and a light receiving lens array unit arranged successively along the optical axis direction; the light source array unit includes a plurality of light sources which are independently controlled and arranged in a matrix; the light shield array unit includes a plurality of light shields arranged in a matrix and disposed outside each light source; the light receiving lens array unit includes a plurality of light receiving lenses arranged in a matrix and disposed opposite to each light source along the optical axis direction.

Claims (24)

1. A matrix lighting device for a vehicle, comprising a light source module ( 2 ), a projection lens ( 3 ), a projection emergent space ( 4 ), and a projection image plane ( 5 ) arranged successively along an optical axis direction ( 1 ), wherein

the light source module ( 2 ) comprises a light source array unit ( 21 ), a light shield array unit ( 22 ) and a light receiving lens array unit ( 23 ) arranged successively along the optical axis direction ( 1 ), wherein

the light source array unit ( 21 ) includes a plurality of light sources ( 211 ) which are independently controlled and arranged in a matrix,

the light shield array unit ( 22 ) includes a plurality of light shields ( 221 ) arranged in a matrix and disposed outside each light source ( 211 ),

the light receiving lens array unit ( 23 ) includes a plurality of light receiving lenses ( 231 ) arranged in a matrix and disposed opposite to each light source ( 211 ) along the optical axis direction ( 1 );

a light emitted by the light source ( 211 ) in the light source array unit ( 21 ) successively passes through the light receiving lens ( 231 ), the projection lens ( 3 ) and the projection emergent space ( 4 ) along the optical axis direction ( 1 ), and forms a matrix light distribution ( 6 ) on the projection image plane ( 5 ).

2. The matrix lighting device for a vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the projection lens ( 3 ) comprises a first lens ( 31 ) and a second lens ( 32 ) arranged successively along the optical axis direction ( 1 ), and a refractive index and a dispersion coefficient of the first lens ( 31 ) and the second lens ( 32 ) are all different.

3. The matrix lighting device for a vehicle according to claim 2 , wherein a material of the first lens ( 31 ) and the second lens ( 32 ) includes PMMA, PC, or glass.

4. The matrix lighting device for a vehicle according to claim 1 , wherein the light source ( 211 ) comprises
