Patent attributes
A lighting device, which may be used e.g. to produce motor vehicle lamps, may include a light radiation source, e.g. a LED source, having a light-permeable body arranged facing source for propagating light radiation along a longitudinal axis. The light-permeable body includes a collimator exposed to light radiation source and adapted to collect light radiation and to inject it into light-permeable body, a tapered portion coupled to collimator for receiving light radiation and directing it towards an output end, a distal portion acting as an emission filament, coupled to the output end of tapered portion, with an output mirror having a shank portion extending in said distal portion and a head portion, the output mirror reflecting light radiation radially from longitudinal axis and proximally towards said light radiation source.
