    LED LlCHTMODUL
    The invention relates to a vehicle headlight for generating a main light distribution and an additional light distribution, wherein the vehicle headlight comprises two or more LED light modules
    It is known to construct a vehicle headlamp from a number of light modules, in particular LED light modules, which give the headlamp a characteristic appearance in accordance with the arrangement of the light modules during operation, that is to say when the light modules are illuminated.
    This characteristic appearance creates a high recognition value for the different car makes.
    With such a headlamp, besides the main light function, e.g. a low beam function, an additional light function, such as a daytime running light are generated. For this purpose, it is usually necessary that other light modules are turned on or less light modules are turned on than the main light function, so that when the auxiliary light function is activated, the characteristic appearance of the headlamp is no longer given.
    It is an object of the invention to provide a vehicle headlamp which has the same visual appearance both when activated Hauptüichtfuriktion as well as activated auxiliary light function.
    This object is achieved with a headlamp mentioned above in that, according to the invention, each of the LED light modules comprises one or more primary LED light sources, wherein a primary LED light source comprises at least one light diode, comprising two or more secondary LED light sources, wherein a secondary LED light source comprises at least one light-emitting diode, and a lens, wherein the light emitted by the at least one primary LED light source is emitted directly to the lens and projected by this into the outer space, wherein the primary LED light sources of all LED modules emitted light forms the main light distribution, and wherein the light emitted by the secondary LED light sources of an LED module via a light guide on the
    Lens of the LED module is emitted, which lens projects the light into the exterior, and wherein the light emitted from the secondary LED light sources of all LED modules light forms the additional light distribution, wherein at least one of the secondary LED light sources in the light Optical fiber is coupled via at least one Lichteinkoppelstelle and, preferably directed substantially parallel, preferably for generating a maximum contribution to the additional light distribution, exiting via at least one Lichtauskoppelstelle.
    With the invention, it is possible in a structurally simple manner to solve the above object. With the primary LED LichtqueUe a main light distribution is formed, with the or the secondary LED light sources, the additional light distribution is formed, wherein the respective light distribution is generated by means of the lenses of the light modules.
    This makes it possible that the light modules differ only by the lens, while the number and arrangement of the LED light sources themselves and the optical fiber used are identical.
    So that the light distributions can be optimally optically generated via the lens, it is necessary for the light exit surface for the main light function and that for the secondary light function to be as close as possible or in the focal plane of the lens or corresponding to the field curvature of the lens. Due to the structure according to the invention, where the main light is emitted directly to the lens, but the secondary light via a light guide, this structure can be realized in a simple manner.
    Thus, both the main light function and the additional light function, all light modules can be switched on and light up, so that the same appearance of the headlamp is realized in both functions.
    In order to be able to easily realize a central maximum in the additional light light distribution, it is provided that the at least one light outcoupling region is arranged in a central region of the light guide.
    In particular, this at least one light extraction region lies along a horizontal P11930 * * # * · * * * ♦ -3-
    Section through the light guide - and in particular in a direction transverse to the light exit direction - seen in the middle of the horizontal section.
    Horizontal refers to the installed in the vehicle state of the headlamp.
    Furthermore, it is advantageously provided that the at least one light coupling point of the light guide for coupling light of the at least one secondary LED light source is arranged in an outer region of the light guide.
    In addition, it is advantageously provided that at least one of the secondary LED light sources directly irradiates the optical fiber, wherein expediently arranged the at least one secondary LED light source whose light passes directly through the optical fiber between the at least one Lichteinkoppelstelle and the at least one Lichtauskoppelstelle is.
    This serves to provide a homogeneous light distribution contribution to the auxiliary light distribution, but primarily to provide a seamless transition in both the light image and the appearance of the light module from the secondary LED light sources that couple light into the light guide, at least to enable a primary LED light source.
    Due to the structural design of typically used primary LED light sources (keyword LED ceramic), the light guide usually does not reach the at least one primary LED light source so far, in order to ensure a seamless transition between the at least one light-injecting secondary LED light source. To produce light source and the primary or the LED light sources.
    If it is possible to bring the light guide sufficiently far to the primary LED light source (s), the secondary LED light sources, which shine through directly through the light guide, are not absolutely necessary. Usually, in order to obtain sufficient light and / or to have as complete a luminous light surface as possible, it is provided that in secondary light operation, the at least one primary LED light source is operated dimmed. Thus, as mentioned above, a smooth transition in the light distribution of the additional light to the dimmed • P11930 • · • · · »** * * Μ •« * * ·· »• ········ -4 -
    Primary LED light sources is possible, then adjacent to the at least one primary LED light source, those secondary LED light sources are arranged, which shine through directly through the light guide. So that they can be easily arranged at the desired locations, the secondary LED light sources, which produce the maximum in the additional light distribution, arranged outside, since the light is passed through the light guide to the desired location anyway.
    In a specific variant of the invention, it is provided that exactly two or at least two secondary LED light sources are provided per light module, whose light passes directly through the light guide, and exactly two or at least two secondary LED light sources are provided, which light over at least one Lichteinkoppelstelle, preferably via exactly two or one of the number of secondary LED light sources corresponding number of Lichteinkoppelstellen in the light guide couple.
    Furthermore, it is preferably provided that the secondary LED light sources are distributed along the horizontal extension of the light guide and preferably arranged symmetrically with respect to the at least one light extraction point.
    The term horizontal refers to the state installed in the vehicle, but does not necessarily mean that this light source is all arranged along a line (horizontal line).
    In addition, it is also provided that the light guide has at least one opening or recess for the passage of light from the at least one primary LED light source.
    In this way it is possible to attach all the secondary LED light sources or even all LED light sources on a common LED print. In addition, the light distribution of the main light function is practically unaffected by the light guide.
    Finally, it also makes it possible to attach the at least one primary LED light source in or near the focal point of the lens in order to produce the main light distribution in an optimal manner.
    For this purpose, preferably the at least one primary LED light source in the opening or P11930 -5-

    Recess arranged.
    The recess and the at least one primary LED light source are preferably matched precisely to one another. Usually, however, the primary LED light source is not held / fastened in the opening / receptacle.
    When using a sufficiently high-intensity primary LED light source, it is advantageous in view of a simple structure, if exactly one primary LED light source is provided.
    Furthermore, it is provided that the optical fiber is subsequently bent at a light coupling point, e.g. Parabolic shaped portion which directs the coupled light beams of the at least one secondary LED light source substantially parallel.
    Advantageously, in this case, the optical waveguide in the region of the curved section is designed to be reflective in regions or in the entire curved section of light.
    This serves to increase the efficiency, i. It can be reduced in this way light losses or avoided altogether. The section is associated with e.g. (from the outside) vaporized with a reflective layer.
    Structurally, it is further expedient if, following such a curved section of the optical waveguide, an optical waveguide connecting section is provided which connects the curved optical waveguide section to the optical waveguide outcoupling zone, the optical waveguide connecting section having a boundary surface facing away from the secondary LED light sources Boundary plane is flat or curved, preferably the curvature is adapted to the field curvature of the lens.
    The opposite boundary surface forms the light exit surface of the light guide.
    In this way results in a luminous surface of the secondary LED light sources, which preferably follows the field curvature of the lens. With a flat light exit surface, the light from the secondary LED light sources passing directly through the light guide will no longer lie completely in the focal surface / focal limes of the lens and will therefore be slightly distorted P11930 ': · ν. ·:. ······ «II« ·· -6-imaged. However, this plays a subordinate role in the additional light function, since light function does not have a sharp HD line but primarily supply the amount of light in the measuring points and must be homogeneous.
    The structural design of a light guide with a curved, preferably parabolic section allows the use of conventional LED light sources, since then they can lie in a common plane and corresponding to a common LED print. By using so-called "side LEDs" which emit light to one side (and not substantially along the 0 ° direction), the curved parabolic section could in principle be omitted and the light emitted directly into the light outcoupling region (s) , These side LEDs can then also be easily mounted on a common LED-Print.
    The parallel direction of the beams of such side LEDs can be achieved via a suitably adapted light extraction area or via e.g. a parabolic reflector, which is arranged between the side LEDs and the light guide
    The optical waveguide can also be parabolically shaped in the elliptical region, which has the advantage that the optical waveguide thus formed does not necessarily have to be coated with a reflective layer.
    The primary LED light source can be arranged in its recess so that its light exit plane lies in the plane of the outer, planar or curved boundary surface of the light guide, the primary LED light source, in particular its one or more light exit surfaces, as accurately as possible at the focal point the lens are.
    The secondary LED light sources facing the boundary surface of the light guide is preferably formed flat or curved.
    In addition, it is preferably provided that the boundary surface of the light guide facing the secondary LED light sources and the boundary surface facing away from the secondary LED light sources run parallel to one another.
    Furthermore, it is also provided that the at least one light extraction point is formed such that light from the optical fiber connection portion, preferably substantially F11930; · Is normal to the light from the optical fiber connection portion, deflected, including the at least one light extraction point, for example. stepped or prism-shaped.
    By the stepped or prismenfönnige embodiment of the light extraction point (s), the light rays are deflected, the parallel direction of the rays takes place in the light guide with the curved, preferably parabolic section
    In order to realize the statutory vertical extension of the light of the additional light is also provided that the light exit surface of the light guide with respect to its vertical extent a defined extent, preferably different defined vertical dimensions at different horizontal points has.
    In summary, this means that the light exit surface, in particular in the vertical direction, has a vertical extent (possibly varying along the horizontal extent) so that the necessary extent of the light image can be achieved in the vertical direction.
    In this case, the light exit surface is preferably mirror-symmetrical about a vertical axis.
    The lenses of the individual light modules are for this purpose designed such that the superimposed light images of the individual light modules give the main light function and / or the additional light function.
    As a rule, the main focus is on the fact that the main light function is optimally generated, the general condition being that, of course, the main and additional light functions must fulfill the legal requirements.
    Preferably, it is provided that the lenses are free-form lenses, which free-form lenses preferably expand the light image of the individual LED light sources downwards and in width.
    In order to achieve a symmetrical illumination of the optical waveguide, it is preferably provided that those secondary LED light sources whose light passes directly through the optical waveguide lie in a common horizontal plane, and that those secondary LED PI 1930 9 · · * · ·············································································.
    Light sources, which couple light via at least one Lichteinkoppelstelle in the light guide, also lie in a common horizontal plane, wherein advantageously the horizontal plane of those secondary LED light sources whose light passes directly through the light guide, above the horizontal plane of those secondary LED light sources, which light is coupled via at least one Lichteinkoppelstelle in the light guide lies.
    With a vehicle headlight described above, different Hauptiicht and additional light functions can be generated, If the Hauptiichtverteilung, such as in the case of a low beam distribution, must have an asymmetric component in the Lichtverteüung, then this can be most easily realized if at least one further light module to produce a asymmetry component is provided in the Hauptiichtverteilung.
    It is provided that the at least one further light module has at least one LED light source and at least one lens, wherein the lens is preferably a converging lens. Unlike the light modules discussed above, this light module does not allow the light to be spread in width, as this would destroy the asymmetry (on the HD line). Usually, when the additional light distribution is activated, the primary LED light source is dimmed or switched off. Dimming has the advantage that there is a continuous luminous surface, which is not dark in the region of the recess
    In addition, it is provided that usually when activated Hauptiichtverteilung the primary LED light source on and the secondary LED light source (s) are turned off.
    However, it is also conceivable that in the case of the main light function = high beam the additional light function (for example daytime running light) is likewise in operation, so that more light is present. Or it could be provided at Hauptiichtfunktion = low beam, that only those LEDs of the secondary LED light source (s) shine, which emit light under the HeU-dark line.
    For example, the main light distribution is a dimmed light distribution, e.g. a low beam distribution, fog light or motorway light (e.g., to ECE Regulation R123), and the auxiliary light distribution is a daytime running light distribution.
    Based on freeformimsen different light distributions can be formed, which meet the overlap in the legal requirements (SAE, ECE, etc.) to the respective light function.
    By using a light guide no special arrangement of the LED light sources is necessary to achieve the desired light distribution.

    13a shows a daytime running light distribution built on a plurality of individual light distributions of individual light modules with free-form lens according to an exemplary headlight from FIG. 1,
    13b shows another exemplary additional light distribution,

    14e a single light distribution of an asymmetry light module, and
    14f shows a superposition of the individual light images from FIGS. 14a-14e.
    Figure 1 and Figure 2 show an exemplary headlight 1, which is designed to generate a main light light function in the form of a low beam and an additional light light function in the form of a daytime running light.
    The headlight 1 consists of five light modules 10, which have an identical structure with regard to their arrangement with respect to the LED light sources, and one free-form lens 13 per light module 10, wherein the lenses 13 differ in detail, as will be discussed later.
    These five light modules 10 form a characteristic arrangement which produces the characteristic appearance of the headlamp.
    To generate the Asymmetrieanteiles in the low beam distribution yet another light module 20 is provided.
    The light module 20 comprises a plurality of LED light sources 22, 24, wherein the LED source 24 serves to produce a contribution to a main light distribution (eg dipped beam) and the LED light sources 22 contribute to an additional light distribution (eg daytime running light), and at least one Lens 21, wherein the lens 21 is a converging lens. Unlike the lenses 13 of the light modules 10, in this light module the light must not be in the width P11930 P11930
    As this would destroy the asymmetry (on the HD line).
    In order for the headlamp to have the same visual appearance in such a headlamp both when the main light function is activated and when the additional light function is activated, ie in every operating mode all five light modules 10 are lit, it is provided that each of the LED light modules 10, as shown in FIGS 3 and 4, comprises a primary LED light source 11, the primary LED light source 11 in the example shown comprising two light emitting diodes 11 '(specifically 11' designates the light exit surfaces of the light emitting diodes), and four secondary light sources 11 '. LED light sources 12,12a, wherein a secondary LED light source 12,12a includes a light emitting diode 12 '.
    In addition, the light module 20, which likewise has LED light sources 22 for generating a contribution to the additional light distribution, preferably also lights up.
    In the light exit direction in front of the LED light sources, a lens 13 is arranged, wherein the light emitted from the primary LED light source 11 is emitted directly to the lens 13 and projected by the latter into the outer space, wherein the primary LED light sources 11 all LED modules 10 emitted light forms the main light distribution.
    The light emitted by the secondary LED light sources 12, 12a of the LED module 10 is radiated via a light guide 14 onto the lens 13 of the LED module 10, which lens 13 projects the light into the exterior, and that of the secondary LED light sources 12, 12 a of all LED modules 10 light emitted forms the additional light distribution.
    FIG. 5 shows such an arrangement of the LED light sources 11, 12, 12a. FIG. 7 shows the arrangement of the secondary LED light sources 12, 12a with respect to the light guide 14.
    As FIG. 10 shows, two of the secondary LED light sources 12a directly scan the light guide 14 for achieving a homogeneous light distribution contribution to the additional light distribution, the two other secondary LED light sources 12 couple light into the light guide 14 via a respective light landing point 140 , Via two light extraction points 141, the essentially parallel light emerges again from the light guide 14 to produce a maximum contribution to the additional light distribution.
    The secondary LED light sources 12, 12a lie in a common vertical plane, i. the two inner light sources 12a are spaced from the light guide 14, whereby the secondary LED light source 12, 12a can be arranged on a common LED print ,
    So that the light distributions can be optimally optically generated via the lens 13, it is necessary for the light exit surface 11 'for the main light function and that for the secondary light function to be as close as possible or in the focal plane of the lens or run correspondingly to the field curvature of the lens. Due to the structure according to the invention, where the main light is emitted directly to the lens, but the secondary light via a light guide, this structure can be realized in a simple manner.
    Thus, both the main light function and the additional light function, all light modules can be switched on and light up, so that the same appearance of the headlamp is realized in both functions.
    The light outcoupling regions 141 are arranged in a central region of the light guide 14, and they lie along a horizontal section through the light guide 14 -and in particular in a direction transverse to the light exit direction-in the middle of the horizontal section (see FIG. 10).
    Horizontally refers to the installed in the vehicle state of the headlamp.
    The Lichteinkoppelstellen 140 of the light guide 14 are disposed in an outer region of the light guide 14, and the secondary LED light sources 12a, the light passes directly through the light guide 14, are each arranged between a Lichteinkoppelstelle 140 and a Lichtauskoppelstelle 141. Usually, in order to obtain sufficient light and / or to have as complete a luminous light surface as possible, it is provided that in secondary light operation the primary LED light source is operated in a dull-dimmed manner. So that a seamless transition in the light distribution of the additional light to the dimmed primary LED light source is possible, then adjacent to the primary LED light source, those secondary LED light sources are arranged, which illuminate directly through the light guide. So that they can be easily arranged at the desired locations, the
    Secondary LED light sources, which produce the maximum in the additional light distribution of light, arranged outside, since the light is passed through the light guide to the desired location anyway.
    The secondary LED light sources 12, 12 a are arranged distributed along the horizontal extension of the light guide 14 and are preferably arranged symmetrically with respect to the light coupling out points 141.
    It can also be clearly seen in FIGS. 6-8 that it is additionally provided that the optical waveguide 14 has an opening / recess 145 for the passage of light from the primary LED light source 11, the primary LED light source 11 in the Recess 145 is arranged.
    The recess 145 and the primary LED light source are precisely matched to one another, so that the primary LED light source fits exactly into the recess 145, but usually the primary LED light source is not held / fixed in the receptacle.
    In this way it becomes possible to mount all LED light sources, both the primary and the secondary LED light sources, on a common LED print.
    However, it can also be provided that only the secondary LED light sources are arranged on a common LED print.
    In addition, the light distribution of the main light function is practically unaffected by the light guide.
    Finally, it also makes it possible to attach the primary LED light source 11 at or near the focal point of the lens 13 to optimally generate the main light distribution.
    The primary LED light source 11 is arranged in the recess 145 such that the light exit surfaces 11 'of the primary LED light source and the light exit surface of the light guide 14 lie substantially in a common plane.
    Looking at Figures 9-11, in particular Figure 10, it can be seen that the Lichtlei- P11930
    Then, at a light coupling point 140, a curved, e.g. parabolic shaped portion 150 which directs the coupled light beams of the secondary LED light source 12 substantially parallel.
    The optical waveguide 14 may be reflective in the region of the curved section 150 in regions or in the entire curved section 150.
    This serves to increase the efficiency, i. It can be reduced in this way light losses or avoided altogether. The section is associated with e.g. (from the outside) vaporized with a reflective layer.
    Subsequent to such a curved section 150 of the optical waveguide 14, an optical waveguide connecting section 151 is provided, which connects the curved optical waveguide section 150 to the optical waveguide outfeed region 141, the optical waveguide connecting section 151 having a boundary surface 152 facing away from the secondary LED light sources 12a, which boundary plane 152 is planar, as in the example shown.
    The opposite boundary surface 152 forms the light exit surface of the light guide, which preferably extends through the focal point of the lens 13.
    This results in a luminous surface of the secondary LED light sources.
    This light exit surface 152 may advantageously also be curved contrary to the representation in the figures, the curvature then preferably following the field curvature of the lens. In the case of a flat light exit surface, the light of the secondary LED light sources passing directly through the light guide will no longer lie completely in the focal surface / focal line of the lens and therefore be slightly distorted. However, this plays a subordinate role in the additional light function, since the light function has no sharp HD line but primarily supply the amount of light in the measuring points and must be homogeneous.
    The primary LED light source can be arranged in its recess so that its light exit plane lies in the plane of the outer, planar or curved boundary surface of the light guide, wherein the primary LED light source, in particular its light exit P11930 · * ·· · · ♦ · ·············································································································································································
    The boundary surface 153 of the light guide 14 facing the secondary LED light sources 12a is preferably flat, as shown, and the boundary surface 153 of the light guide 14 facing the secondary LED light sources 12a and the boundary surface 152 facing away from the secondary LED light sources 12a are parallel to each other.
    As shown in FIG. 10, the light extraction ports 141 are formed so that light from the optical fiber connection portion 151 is substantially normal to the light from the optical fiber connection portion 151, to which the light extraction ports 141 e.g. stepped or prism-shaped.
    The parallel alignment of the beams is effected by the curved, preferably parabolic sections.
    In order to realize the statutory vertical extension of the light of the additional light is also provided that the light exit surface 152 of the light guide 14, in particular with regard to its vertical extent a defined extent, preferably different defined vertical dimensions at different horizontal points. This can be clearly seen, for example, in FIG.
    In summary, this means that the light exit surface, in particular in the vertical direction, has a vertical extent (possibly varying along the horizontal extent) so that the necessary extent of the light image (the additional light distribution as superposition of the light distributions of the individual light modules 10) can be achieved in the vertical direction.
    In this case, the light exit surface is preferably mirror-symmetrical about a vertical axis, in order to obtain a symmetrical light distribution in the horizontal direction.
    The lenses 13 of the individual light modules 10 are designed in such a way that the superimposed light images of the individual light modules 10 give the main light function and / or the additional light function.
    In this case, the main focus is usually on the fact that the Hauptlichtfuriktion is optimally generated, the general condition is that, of course, main and additional light function must meet the legal requirements.
    It is preferably provided that the lenses 13 are free-form lenses, which free-form lenses preferably extend the light image of the individual LED light sources downwards and in width (this applies both to the light of the primary and secondary light distribution).
    In order to achieve a symmetrical illumination of the optical waveguide, it is preferably provided that those secondary LED light sources whose light passes directly through the optical waveguide lie in a common horizontal plane, and that those secondary LED light sources which transmit light via at least one Incorporate light coupling point in the light guide, also lie in a common horizontal plane, with advantage the horizontal plane of those secondary LED light sources whose light passes directly through the light guide, above the horizontal plane of those secondary LED light sources, which light over at least one Lichteinkoppelstelle couple into the light guide is located. Usually, when the daytime running light is activated, the primary LED light sources 11 are dimmed. Dimming has the advantage that there is a continuous luminous surface, which is not dark in the region of the recess.
    In addition, it is provided that when activated Abblendlichtverteilung the primary LED light source on and the secondary LED light source (s) are turned off.
    FIG. 12 shows a legally prescribed daytime running light (DRL) light distribution, which has a maximum in the center, at HV.
    It is not a completely homogeneously distributed light distribution, but the light is concentrated in the center, which extends in the width.
    Figure 13a and Figure 13b shows a daytime running light distribution built up of several individual light distributions of individual light modules with free-form lens.
    Each module 10 provides a proportion to the additional light (daytime running light) light distribution as shown in Figure 13a and 13b, wherein the individual light distributions by the differently shaped lenses 13 slightly differ from each other. In the superimposition these light images then give the required light values. The light distribution generated by the LED light sources 12, 12a are designated 312, 31a in FIGS. 13a and 13b.
    The light distribution in FIG. 13a corresponds to that which is generated together with the light module 20 using light modules 10 discussed in the description. The light distributions 312 and 312a only reach HD as far as is necessary so that they overlap with the light distribution 311 of the dimmed primary LED light source.
    The daytime running light distribution in the special embodiment according to FIG. 13a would not comply with the law without a dimmed primary LED light source, since too little light is emitted under HD. This results from the fact that the secondary LED light sources 12, 12a are arranged below the focal line of the lens. Only by dimming the primary LED light source is the additional light distribution compliant with the law.
    The asymmetry component in the light distribution in FIG. 13a results from the light module 20 through the LED light source 24. Furthermore, the light module 20 with the LED light sources 22 makes a contribution to the additional light distribution of light.
    FIG. 13b shows a further embodiment in which the secondary LED light sources and also the curved sections of the light guide of the light modules 10 are at the level of their respective primary LED light source.
    At the same time, the prism-shaped light outcoupling regions of the light guide of the light modules 10 must continue to extend upward, so that the light image is extended downward (under HD). The light extraction areas must therefore also be at the level and above the primary LED light source.
    For the light distribution shown in FIG. 13b, neither the dimmed primary LED light source of the light module 10 nor the LED light source 24 of the light module 20 contributes to the secondary light distribution of light, which may be the case. makes the use of stronger secondary LED light source necessary.
    However, it can also be provided that even for the light distribution shown in FIG. 13b dimmed primary LED source sources still contribute. P11930 P11930

    FIG. 14f shows a low beam distribution. Figures 14a-14d show a set of possible individual light distributions of individual light modules 10 with corresponding lenses 13, e.g. Free-form lenses, as a contribution to this low-beam distribution, the structure from the perspective of the light sources in these modules 10 is identical, the different light distributions thus result from the different lenses 13 and / or number and / or position of the LEDs of the main light distribution.
    With the light distribution in FIG. 14a, a high maximum of the luminous flux on the light-dark line is achieved, the light distributions in FIG. 14b and FIG. 14c produce the necessary width, and the light distribution in FIG. 14d provides a contribution to the apron of the low-beam distribution. With an additional lens module 20 (converging lens 21) one obtains the asymmetry light distribution in FIG. 14e. In the exemplary asymmetry module 20, a primary LED light source 24 in conjunction with a light tunnel as part of an optical element 23 generates the typical increase in the light image of the low-beam light distribution.
    By superimposing the light distributions, the dimming beam distribution in FIG. 14f is finally obtained.
    Finally, it can be summarized that in an advantageous variant, the *) main light distribution is formed by the primary LED light sources of the light modules 10 and 20, and *) the additional light distribution from the secondary LED light source of the light modules 10 and 20 and the dimmed Primary LED light sources of light modules 10 and 20, so that in this variant both main light and additional light illuminate all the light modules.
    However, it can also be provided that *) main light distribution is formed by the primary LED light sources of the light modules 10 and 20, and 1 the additional light distribution only by the secondary LED light source of the light modules 10 and 20, without dimmed primary LEDs. Light sources of the light modules 10 and 20.
    In the latter case, the use of stronger secondary LED light sources for the light modules 10 and possibly also the light module 20 may be necessary.
    It may also be provided that e.g. the main light distribution is generated by all the light modules 10, 20 and the additional light distribution only by the light modules 10, whereby the primary LED light source can be dimmed or switched off.
