    Furthermore, the invention relates to a lighting device for a motor vehicle or for a motor vehicle headlight, which at least one lighting device is at least configured to produce a flare signaling function, and wherein the lighting device is associated with a control device or the lighting device comprises a control device, and wherein upon activation of the Lichthupen signaling function, the control device, the at least one lighting device such that of the at least one lighting device, a light beam light distribution, in particular in the form of a high beam distribution, especially for a defined period, in an area in front of the at least one lighting device or in an area in front of the motor vehicle , is produced.
    In addition, the invention relates to a motor vehicle headlamp, which comprises at least one lighting device described above, and a lighting device system for a motor vehicle, wherein the lighting device system comprises two above-mentioned motor vehicle headlights, a left and a right vehicle headlight.
    Finally, the invention also relates to a motor vehicle with at least one above-mentioned, in particular two such motor vehicle headlights or with an aforementioned lighting device system, and a method for driving at least one lighting device or at least one motor vehicle headlight or at least one lighting device system.
    Motor vehicles have a so-called "light horn function." In this light horn function, a light field light distribution is generated by the headlamps of the motor vehicle at short notice, usually by actuating a corresponding actuating element (light switch) by the driver of the motor vehicle ("fading"). ). Specifically, the high beam is usually activated for a short period of time, accordingly, it is usually in the light field light distribution to a high beam distribution, which is activated for a short period.
    The flasher serves to be able to transmit signals to other road users, for example to be able to draw attention to certain dangers, traffic situations, etc.
    For example, the so-called "flash-to-pass" is known, in particular on a two- or multi-lane, only in one direction driveable roadway by activating the flashlight on a lane ahead, usually slower, motor vehicle (handlebar) the desire to clear the roadway for overtaking, so that can be overhauled, should be displayed.
    Such only in one direction driveable roadway has a "slow" lane (in right-hand traffic the lane on the right, the leftmost traffic lane left) and one or more passing lanes, with the lane on the far left (in right-hand traffic) or the lane completely right (left-hand traffic) the so-called "fastest" lane.
    For example, a highway usually has two lanes that can be driven in opposite directions, with each lane having two or more lanes.
    In connection with the "flash-to-pass" described above, the flare horn is generally used when a vehicle in front is in a fast lane, especially on the fastest lane.
    A disadvantage of the use of the flasher, in particular in connection with the "flash-to-pass" is, however, that by the generated high beam distribution road users, ie the occupants, especially the handlebars of motor vehicles on other lanes of the road can be dazzled, causing them irritated and / or distracted.
    It is an object of the invention to solve the above-mentioned problem.
    This object is achieved with a control device mentioned in the introduction, that according to the invention the control device receives road information from a road vehicle recognition device, which road information - at least information on whether a road used by the motor vehicle is passable only in one direction and whether the road one or more lanes, and / or - at least information on whether one or the road used by the motor vehicle can only be driven in one direction of travel and which number of lanes the roadway, and wherein the control device object information of at least one Objekterkennungsungssystem receives, which object recognition system observes the lying in front of the lighting device or the motor vehicle environment, wherein the object information includes at least information, - whether on the same lane, the Kr Aftfahrzeug is driven, a vehicle object, in particular a motor vehicle object, in particular directly, located in front of the motor vehicle, and preferably, at which distance the vehicle object, in particular the motor vehicle object is located, and / or - where seen on the road in the direction of travel of the vehicle vehicle objects , in particular motor vehicle objects are located, and preferably at which distance to the motor vehicle, these vehicle objects, in particular motor vehicle objects are located, and wherein upon activation of the flare signaling function, the control device in the event that - the motor vehicle in a unidirectional roadway with two or is located more lanes, and - on the lane of the motor vehicle, the motor vehicle, in particular directly, driving ahead, a vehicle object, in particular a motor vehicle object is located, the at least one lighting device which is adapted to at least one modified light beam light distribution, in particular to produce a modified high beam distribution, in which modified light horn light distribution, in particular modified high beam distribution, only one or more portions of the (unmodified) light beam light distribution, in particular the high beam distribution, illuminable area illuminated or the at least one motor vehicle headlight, such that, preferably for the defined period of time, such a modified light beam light distribution, in particular a modified high beam distribution is generated, that essentially only on the lane of the motor vehicle, in particular directly, ahead Vehicle object, in particular motor vehicle object, is illuminated.

If a vehicle traveling in front of the vehicle, in particular within a certain angular range and distance range, is detected, only the angular range assumed by the preceding vehicle is illuminated when the flashlight function is actuated.

    In the following the invention is explained in more detail with reference to the drawing. In this shows
    1 shows a motor vehicle according to the invention in a schematic plan view,
    2 shows an exemplary traffic situation and the use of a known from the prior art flashlight,
    Fig. 3 shows the traffic situation of Figure 2 when using a flare horn according to the invention, and
    4 shows another exemplary traffic situation when using a flashlight according to the invention.
    FIG. 1 shows a motor vehicle 10 according to the invention. This motor vehicle 10 has an illumination device system 1, which consists of two motor vehicle headlights 2, 4, a left and a right motor vehicle headlight. In the embodiment shown, each headlamp 2,4 has a lighting device 3,5, e.g. in the form of a light module, which lighting devices 3, 5 are adapted to be able to realize a light horn signaling function. In particular, in this context, the lighting devices 3.5 are set up to produce a light-beam light distribution, namely, in the specific example, a high-beam distribution.
    Furthermore, the motor vehicle 10 has a control device 7, by means of which the lighting devices 3, 5, and preferably the entire headlight 2.4 are controlled. For example, when activating the light horn function by the vehicle driver, the control device 7 controls the lighting devices 3, 5 such that the main beam distribution is switched on for a certain short period of time, thus illuminating the headlights 2, 4 accordingly.
    The control device 7 is assigned an object recognition system 6, of which the
    Control device 7 receives object information, which determines the object recognition system 6 in an observation of lying in front of the motor vehicle 10 environment.
    Furthermore, the control device 7 is assigned a roadway recognition device 6 ', from which the control device 7 receives roadway information.
    The object recognition system 6 typically includes one or more cameras monitoring the environment, and from this observation the object recognition system 6 can recognize various objects in front of the motor vehicle 10, but in particular at least other vehicles. Typically, the object recognition system 6 comprises, as in the example presented, a separate arithmetic unit that performs this object recognition. However, it can also be provided that the object recognition system is functionally divided, and the at least one camera records the recorded image information, e.g. to a central processing unit or e.g. also transmitted to the control device, where the actual object recognition is performed.
    The object recognition system may alternatively or in addition to at least one camera also include one or more suitable sensors, e.g. Distance sensors, with which the necessary information can be determined.
    The object recognition system may alternatively or in addition to the aforementioned options also consist in a vehicle-to-vehicle communication via which vehicles communicate their position, or the object recognition system may also be in a communication device with a central entity having information about vehicle positions, and these other vehicles provides exist.
    Furthermore, the motor vehicle 10 has a roadway recognition device 6 'for determining roadway information, which is e.g. an optical image capture system, e.g. at least one camera or at least one camera system, and / or at least one satellite-based location system, e.g. a GPS, and / or at least a car-to-car communication system. The tram recognition system 6 'can have its own camera or cameras or also resort to the camera (s) of the object recognition system 6. Supporting vehicle data, such. Vehicle speed, curve radius, etc. are taken into account.
    Figure 2 shows a traffic situation on a (road) lane FB, e.g. a highway. The carriageway is driven in a direction R and has several, in the concrete example, three lanes FS1, FS2, FS3. In the right-hand traffic example shown, the (right) lane FS3 is the slowest lane, the lanes FS2, FS1 are the "faster" lanes for overtaking, the left lane FS1 being the "fastest" lane on which motor vehicles are intended can drive the fastest.
    In the example shown, there are motor vehicles 20, 30, 40 on all three lanes FS1, FS2, FS3, and a faster motor vehicle 10 'approaches from behind.
    This motor vehicle 10 'has lighting devices according to the prior art, which generate a high beam distribution upon activation of the flashlight. As shown in FIG. 2, the motor vehicle 10 'signals by means of the flare horn the motor vehicle 20 driving ahead on the same lane FS1 that it wishes to overtake. In this case, however, the motor vehicle 30, which is located on the adjacent, middle lane FS2, detected by the high beam beam LHV, which can lead to glare or distraction of the arm of the motor vehicle 30 on the middle lane FS2.
    A motor vehicle 10 according to the invention now has lighting devices 3, 5, which are adapted to a modified light horn light distribution, i. to produce a modified high beam distribution LHV ', in which modified high beam distribution LHV' only a portion of LHV 'of the (non-modified) Lichthupen light distribution, in particular high beam distribution LHV, illuminable area LHV is illuminated.
    This can be realized in a particularly simple way with illumination devices 3, 5, which light distributions, in particular the high-beam distribution, are made up of individual light segments, e.g. horizontally juxtaposed and / or vertically superimposed light segments, build, since not all but only a subset of all light segments is activated in this case to generate a modified high beam distribution or already activated "normal" high beam part of the activated light segments is turned off.
    FIG. 3 shows a motor vehicle 10 according to the invention, which is located in the situation already described in connection with FIG. The control device 7 receives from the roadway recognition device 6 'roadway information which roadway information includes information as to whether the roadway FB traveled by the motor vehicle 10 is only passable in one direction of travel R and whether the roadway lane FB has one or more lanes FS1, FS2, FS3, and / or information about whether the roadway FB traveled by the motor vehicle 10 can only be traveled in one direction of travel R and what number of lanes FS1, FS2, FS3 the roadway FB has. The roadway information preferably also contains information about which lane FS1 the motor vehicle 10 is located on.
    Furthermore, the control device 7 receives object information from the object recognition system 6, wherein the object information contains at least information as to whether a vehicle object, in particular a motor vehicle object or motor vehicle 20, is located in front of the motor vehicle on the same traffic lane FS1 traveled by the motor vehicle 10 10, and preferably at which distance the motor vehicle 20 is located.
    The control device 7 is now set up such that when the flashlight signaling function is activated in the event that the motor vehicle 10 is located on a lane FB having only two or more lanes FS1, FS2, FS3, which can travel in one direction R, and on the Lane FS1 of the motor vehicle 10, the motor vehicle 10, in particular directly, driving ahead, a motor vehicle object 20 is located, the lighting devices 3, 5 or the motor vehicle headlights 2.4 are driven such that, preferably for the defined period of the light horn signaling, such Modified light horn light distribution, in particular a modified such a high beam distribution LHV 'is generated, that substantially only on the lane FS1 of the motor vehicle 10, in particular directly, driving ahead motor vehicle object 20 is illuminated.
    Exactly such a scenario is shown in Figure 3, so that when activating the flare horn not the high beam distribution LHV of Figure 2 but a limited spatial high beam distribution LHV 'according to Figure 3 is generated.
    As can be further seen in FIG. 3, it can preferably be provided that the object information ascertained by the object recognition system 6 also contains an object angle range alpha, which is taken up by the motor vehicle object 20 driving ahead on the same traffic lane FS1. To this an additional lateral offset is added, so that the illuminated area LHV 'is slightly wider than the vehicle width of the preceding vehicle 20.
    The control device 6 thus controls in the case shown that within a defined angular range of a motor vehicle 20, upon activation of the flare signaling function, the at least one, usually both lighting devices 3,5 and vehicle headlights 2.4 such that , Preferably for the defined period of time, the modified light horn light distribution, in particular the modified high beam distribution LHV 'is generated such that substantially only the object angle range alpha is illuminated. By "essentially" means that either exactly the object angle ranges alpha or a slightly wider range as shown in Figure 3 and described above is illuminated, so that vehicles 30 are not illuminated on adjacent lanes FS2.
    FIG. 3 shows the case that the motor vehicle 10 according to the invention is located on the fastest lane FS1. It can be provided that the control device 7 only activates the modified light-horn light distribution when the motor vehicle 10 is just on the fastest lane FS1. The inventive spatial limitation of the high beam distribution is accordingly only when the motor vehicle whose headlight is activated, located on the fastest lane.
    FIG. 4 shows a scenario in which the invention is not limited to the above-described optional feature that the spatial restriction of the light-beam light distribution takes place only when the motor vehicle 10 according to the invention is located on the fastest lane FS1.
    FIG. 4 shows the motor vehicle 10 on the middle lane FS2 of a roadway as described in connection with FIGS. 2 and 3, with a motor vehicle 20 driving directly on the same lane FS2. The control device 7 recognizes that the roadway FB can only be driven in one direction R. in that the roadway FB has a plurality of, namely three, lanes FS1, FS2, FS3, and that a motor vehicle 20 travels immediately ahead. Accordingly, activation of the flare horn does not activate a high beam distribution but a limited spatial high beam distribution LHV 'so that a motor vehicle 30 on the adjacent lanes FS3 is not detected by the cone of light.
