Vehicle lamp
A vehicle lamp for forms an optimal beam pattern via a plurality of lamp modules arranged in at least one direction, and each of the plurality of lamp modules includes a light source unit that generates light, a light path adjusting unit, which guides and adjusts a path of the light generated from the light source unit, and a lens unit, through which the light guided by the light path adjusting unit passes to form a beam pattern. The lens unit includes a plurality of incident lenses and a plurality of exit lenses, through which light incident on each of the plurality of incident lenses is emitted.
1 . A vehicle lamp for forming a beam pattern via a plurality of lamp modules arranged in at least one direction, wherein each of the plurality of lamp modules includes:
a light source unit that generates light;
a light path adjusting unit that guides and adjusts a path of the light generated from the light source unit; and
a lens unit, through which the light guided by the light path adjusting unit passes to form the beam pattern,
wherein the lens unit includes:
a plurality of incident lenses; and
a plurality of exit lenses, through which light incident on each of the plurality of incident lenses is emitted,
wherein the light path adjusting unit includes a first optical lens, which is disposed in front of the light source unit, and a second optical lens, which is disposed in front of the first optical lens,
wherein the second optical lens includes:
an incident portion, on which the light emitted from the first optical lens is incident; and
an exit portion, through which the light incident on the incident portion is emitted and which includes a plurality of exit surfaces, and
wherein a center of a first exit surface among the plurality of exit surfaces is vertically spaced apart from centers of a first incident lens among the plurality of incident lenses and a first exit lens among the plurality of exit lenses that correspond to the first exit surface.
2 . The vehicle lamp of claim 1 , wherein the first optical lens includes:
an incident portion, on which the light is incident from the light source unit and which has a substantially flat shape; and
an exit portion, through which the light incident on the incident portion is emitted and which has a convex shape.
3 . The vehicle lamp of claim 1 , wherein the incident portion has a convex shape that protrudes rearward.
4 . The vehicle lamp of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of exit surfaces has a shape that is inclined downwardly toward front.
5 . The vehicle lamp of claim 1 , wherein the light emitted from the plurality of exit surfaces proceeds obliquely downward toward front.
6 . The vehicle lamp of claim 1 , wherein the centers of the first incident lens and the first exit lens are disposed below the center of the first exit surface.
7 . The vehicle lamp of claim 1 , wherein the centers of the first incident lens and the first exit lens are vertically spaced apart.
8 . The vehicle lamp of claim 7 , wherein the center of the first exit lens is disposed below the center of the first incident lens.
9 . The vehicle lamp of claim 1 , wherein the lens unit further includes a transmission member, which transmits light incident on each of the plurality of incident lenses to the plurality of exit lenses, and
wherein the transmission member includes a plurality of shielding surfaces, with front ends thereof disposed at or near rear focus of the respective exit lenses.
