Patent ID: 8646954

Claim:
An adaptive projection system capable of producing a change in the position of said optical diaphragm for different types of lighting for the headlights of motor vehicles comprising: a reflector with a light source; a diaphragm system including an optical diaphragm; a lens; a mechanism including the optical diaphragm and stanchions; an electric motor for driving said mechanism; and wherein said optical diaphragm is a thin-wall concave shell in a shape of a hyperboloid, selected from one of a cylindrical shape and a conical shape, and is firmly fastened at both sides by means of said stanchions to an output shaft of said electric motor; and wherein the electric motor is placed in a central position relative to said mechanism and rotates in a half-circle around an axis of rotation, while the axis of rotation is obliquely oriented and spatially deviating from a transverse axis of a projector and said optical diaphragm is fixed in various defined positions of its rotation, while the output shaft of the electric motor together with both stanchions and the optical diaphragm form a rigid frame.
