Abstract (en)
A lighting and/or signaling device (4) for vehicles comprising a container body (8) delimiting a containment seat (12) which accommodates at least one light source (16) adapted to emit a light beam comprising a plurality of light rays (20), at least one collimator device (28) contained in the container body (8) and configured to receive said light rays (20) emitted by said at least one light source (16) and to collimate them parallel to a main propagation direction (X-X), at least one screen device (24) of said collimated light rays (20), arranged to close the container body (8), extending from an inlet wall (32) facing the collimator device (28) to an outlet wall (36), wherein the outlet wall (36) has alternating screened portions (40) which are opaque to said light rays (20), and windows (44) which are transparent to said light rays (20). Said windows (44) are obtained on recesses (48) of the outlet wall (36), misaligned with respect to the screened portions (40) along said main propagation direction (X-X). The inlet wall (32) of the screen device (24) comprises at least one concentration means (52) of the light beam (incoupling) configured to direct and concentrate, in said windows (44), the collimated light rays (20) incident thereon.
