  • Patent number: 10202068
    Abstract: A high/low beam switching device for a vehicle headlight includes a fixing plate and a frame, wherein the frame is fixed to one side of the fixing plate. The fixing plate defines a passage at a top edge thereof and two rods are fixedly provided at the fixing plate. A shielding panel is connected to a shaft of a solenoid device which is located in the frame fixed to the fixing plate. The shielding panel has a main portion and two bars respectively extending from two opposite sides of the main portion, which are configured to be in slight contact with the two rods. The two bars, which extend horizontally, can be stopped by the rods. The high/low beam switching device is easily made and assembled.

  • Patent number: 10180226
    Abstract: A high/low beam switching device generally includes a fixing plate, a solenoid device, a shielding member, and a coil spring. The fixing plate defines an opening which is divided into three zones including an upper space, a middle space, and a lower space. The solenoid device is horizontally disposed in a frame fixed on a shelf extending from the fixing plate. The shielding member, which can cover the middle space of the fixing plate, is pivotally connected to the fixing plate. The solenoid device when being energized can turn the shielding member to uncover the middle space, so that a high beam illumination pattern can be provided. When the solenoid device is de-energized, the shielding member can be turned back to the fixing plate to cover the middle space, so that a low beam illumination pattern can be provided. Also, the present invention provides a headlamp including the switching device.

  • Publication number: 20130320783
    Abstract: A step motor used to adjust a headlight's up and down includes a supporting pole, a magnet, a coil and a circuit board. The circuit board has a power input terminal subsequently connected with a voltage regulator IC, a control IC, a transistor and a driver. In addition, the driver is connected with the coil; the control IC is connected with a signal input terminal further connected with a vehicle compute; the power input terminal is connected with a vehicle power source. So when a vehicle is started, power can flow through and regulated by the voltage regulator IC. Then it runs through the control IC to command the driver to drive the negative coil to induce the magnet to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise, enabling the supporting pole to move inward or outward to horizontally balance the headlight.

  • Publication number: 20130322101
    Abstract: A device for controlling high beam and low beam of a headlight includes a fixing plate formed with a recess and bored with two pin holes, two curved slots and a sliding slot. A valve base secured on the fixing plate is installed therein with an electromagnetic valve having a valve rod inserted in the interior and a spring fitted on the valve rod. A positioning seat is mounted on the valve rod and has one side provided with a connecting rod to be inserted through two mutually overlapped ends of two connecting plates and in the sliding slot of the fixing plate. Two boards are oppositely and pivotally assembled on the fixing plate, having their lower sides respectively and pivotally connected with the upper ends of the two connecting plates by insert pins, which are then inserted in the two curved slots of the fixing plate.

  • Patent number: 7898124
    Abstract: A step-by-step motor able to carry out up-and-down transmission includes a housing, a top rod, a circuit board, a magnet, a coil unit and a cover. The top rod is inserted in an insert hole of the housing, having a wall bored with a cut recess. The circuit board has a position-limiting switch received in an engage groove of the housing and provided with a sidewise rod inserted in the cut recess of the top rod. The magnet is fixed with a connecting member connecting a bearing, and the lower end of the top rod is engaged with the connecting member. The coil unit is fitted around the magnet and positioned in the housing, and the cover is covered on the bottom of the housing. The magnet is driven by the coil unit to rotate and actuate the top rod to move upward or downward steadily.

  • Patent number: 7755234
    Abstract: A brushless motor includes a bottom base, a circuit board, a rotator, a big gear, a big driven gear, a driving gear and a lid. Positioned around a shaft base inside the bottom base are two stopping posts that form an included angle with the shaft base. A positioning plate is formed at the bottom of the driving gear, restricted to move between the two stopping posts to keep the driving gear rotated in a preset angle. And, a single injection mold can make various bottom bases with diverse rotating angles for being used in the brushless motor employed for different lamps, achieving the purpose of reducing manufacturing cost.
