  • Publication number: 20010019484
    Abstract: A headlight for a vehicle operating in accordance with the projection principle has a light source, a reflector which reflects light emitted by the light source as a converging light beam, a screen arranged in a beam path of the light beam reflected by the reflector and screening a part of the light beam, a lens arranged after the screen in a light outlet direction for projecting an upper edge of the screen as a bright-dark limit of a light bundle exiting the headlight, so that a part of the light bundle reflected by the reflector illuminates at least a region arranged at a distance above the bright-dark limit, the screen being provided with at least one opening which is located at a defined region below the upper edge of the screen and formed so that a part of the light beam reflected by the reflector passes through the opening and illuminates at least one region above the bright-dark limit.

  • Patent number: 4849860
    Abstract: A bushing made of elastic plastic, spherically receives a ball pivot of an adjusting screw and is fixed in a socket which protrudes from a back side of a reflector. Two spring clips of the bushing grip two catches of the socket from behind, and two rails of the hollow journal cooperate with two slot links of the frame. This ball-and-socket mounting, which is coaxial with respect to the adjusting screw can be assembled by robots and does not cause any bending moments that unfavorably affect the reflector mounting.
