Abstract

See full text

A lamp for a motor vehicle having at least one light source (50, 51, 53) and at least one planar optical waveguide (10) with at least two optical waveguide surfaces (14, 16) and at least one peripheral surface (12) into which the light of the light source (50, 51, 53) can be coupled directly or indirectly, and a light decoupling surface (14) that is formed by one of the optical waveguide surfaces, first decoupling elements (18) being provided on the optical waveguide surface (16) opposite the light decoupling surface (14), wherein at least one rod-like optical waveguide (20) is provided which is connected directly to the planar optical waveguide (10) or is part of the planar optical waveguide (10), the rod-like optical waveguide (20) having a decoupling surface (30) that decouples substantially into or against a driving direction of the motor vehicle and the light decoupling direction of the planar optical waveguide (10) is substantially perpendicular to at least one of its optical waveguide surfaces, and it being possible for the light of a light source (50, 51, 53) to be coupled directly or indirectly into the rod-like optical waveguide (20), and the rod-like optical waveguide (20) having second light decoupling elements (22) that are arranged on that side (28) of the rod-like optical waveguide (20) that is opposite the decoupling surface (30).
