Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2004058537A1] The invention relates to a lamp assembly for a vehicle, comprising at least one reflector for a headlamp or a tail lamp and a direction indicator lamp and parking lamp, each having a reflector and a corresponding light source and being positioned below the former lamps. The aim of the invention is to configure a lamp assembly of this type, which exhibits powerful differentiation characteristics at night. To achieve this, the direction indicator lamp (9, 26) and the parking lamp (10, 28) are configured in a common reflector chamber (8, 24) comprising a light emission opening (11), which extends below the reflector (3, 20) in the transversal direction of the vehicle and is provided with a window panel (12) that is significantly wider than the diameter of the reflector. The reflectors (13, 25) for the direction indicator lamp (9, 26) and the reflectors (16, 27) for the parking lamp (10, 28) lie adjacent to one another in the reflector chamber (8, 24) in such a way that the entire width of the light emitted by one of the two lamps is captured by the light emission opening and shines through the latter.
