Abstract:
An optical conductor system for a lighting unit comprising:a light source; means for concentrating beams of said source onto an entrance end of a transparent rod wherein said rod extends along a longitudinal axis and said rod includes at least one optical conductor and a plurality of reflecting facets positioned obliquely relative to said longitudinal axis wherein light emerges at a specific intensity; at least one optical lens optically cooperating with a respective one of said facets wherein said at least one lens is arranged at the exit of a respective one of said at least one optical conductor in the path of elementary light bundles reflected by said at least one said facet; and at least one light-controlling elements wherein each one of said at least one light-controlling element controls the deflection or passage of light by changing the reflection at a respective one of said at least one facet.
