Patent ID: 8201981

Claim:
A projection module for a motor vehicle headlight for generating at least one predetermined light distribution, the module comprising a plurality of light sources for emitting electromagnetic radiation, at least one primary optical unit for concentrating the radiation emitted by the light sources, and a secondary optical unit arranged in the beam path of the concentrated radiation and serving for imaging the radiation beam on a roadway in front of the motor vehicle, wherein the light sources are subdivided into at least two groups, wherein, for generating at least two different light distributions, the different light source groups can be activated independently of one another, wherein an optical element is arranged in the beam path of a radiation beam emitted by a first light source group, between the at least one primary optical unit and the secondary optical unit, into which optical element the radiation beam emitted by the first light source group is coupled in and is coupled out again in order to generate a low-beam light distribution with a horizontal bright-dark boundary, and wherein a further light source group can additionally be activated in order to generate a high-beam light distribution, wherein the radiation beam emitted by the further light source group illuminates a region of the light distribution above the bright-dark boundary.
