Optical assembly and rear-view mirror assembly having same
The optical assembly disclosed in the embodiment of the invention includes: a lighting module having a resin layer and a light emitting device inside the resin layer, and having an exit surface for emitting surface light to one side; a reflective portion having a recess in a lower portion of the exit side of the lighting module and an aspherical curved surface at the bottom of the recess; and a transparent cover on the recess to reflect the surface light to a set region.
1 . An optical assembly comprising:
a housing including a first region and a second region;
a substrate disposed in the first region of the housing;
a lighting emitting device disposed in the first region of the housing and electrically connected to the substrate;
a resin layer sealing the light emitting device,
wherein one side of the housing is open,
wherein the one side of the housing is connected to the first and second regions,
wherein the resin layer emits light emitted from the light emitting device as a surface light source,
wherein the resin layer provides the surface light source toward the second region,
wherein the housing includes a reflective portion disposed in the second region, and
wherein the reflective portion reflects the surface light source toward the one side of the housing within the second region.
2 . The optical assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein a bottom depth of the first region is lower than a bottom depth of the second region.
3 . The optical assembly of claim 2 ,
wherein the resin layer has an exit surface facing the second region of the housing.

5 . The optical assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein the substrate is disposed on a bottom of the first region.
6 . The optical assembly of claim 5 ,
wherein the substrate overlaps the resin layer in a direction from the bottom of the first region toward the one side of the housing.
7 . The optical assembly of claim 1 , comprising:
a reflective member disposed on the resin layer,
wherein the resin layer is disposed between the reflective member and the substrate.
8 . The optical assembly of claim 1 , comprising:
a reflective member disposed on the resin layer,

13 . The optical assembly of claim 1 , comprising:
a hole disposed in a bottom of the first region, and
a connector disposed in the hole and electrically connected to the substrate.
14 . The optical assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein the first region and the second region are spaced apart in a first direction, and
wherein both side surfaces of the resin layer in the first direction have different areas.
15 . The optical assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein the first region and the second region are spaced apart in a first direction, and
wherein both side surfaces of the resin layer in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction have different areas.
16 . The optical assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein a thickness of the resin layer is greater than a thickness of the light emitting device.
17 . The optical assembly of claim 1 ,
wherein the light emitting device is spaced from an inner side wall of the housing.
18 . The optical assembly of claim 17 ,
wherein at least one of side surfaces of the resin layer is spaced from an inner side wall of the housing.
