Illumination device

Abstract

Day travelling light, in particular for automotive vehicles, comprising a light source in an illumination housing and a means associated with the light source for bundling the light emitted by the light source, wherein the light source comprises at least one LED ( 13 ) (FIG. 1 ).

1 . Day travelling light, in particular for automotive vehicles comprising a light source in an illumination housing and with means for bundling the light emitted by the light source, characterized in that the light source comprises at least one LED ( 13 ,  30 ,  40 ).  
     
     
         2 . Day travelling light according to  claim 1 , characterized in that it comprises a reflector ( 31 ) as bundling means.  
     
     
         3 . Day travelling light according to  claim 1  or  2 , characterized in that the at least one LED ( 40 ) is installed in an optics according to the Cassegrain principle.  
     
     
         4 . Day travelling light according to any one of the claims  1  through  3 , characterized in that it comprises a Fresnel optics ( 22 ) as bundling means.  
     
     
         5 . Day travelling light according to any one of the claims  1  through  4 , characterized in that the day travelling light is disposed in an external mirror ( 20 ).  
     
     
         6 . Day travelling light according to  claim 5 , characterized in that the Fresnel optics is disposed in a covering plate of the mirror.  
     
     
         7 . Day travelling light according to any one of the claims  1  through  6 , characterized in that the day travelling light comprises several LEDs ( 13 ) and is disposed around a further illumination means, in particular a low beam, a driving light or a fog light module.  
     
     
         8 . Illumination device according to any one of the claims  1  through  7 , characterized in that the at least one LED ( 13 ,  30 ,  40 ) is white.
