  • Publication number: 20250144991
    Abstract: A vehicular headlight system includes a headlight configured to mount at a vehicle equipped with the vehicular headlight system. The headlight includes a lens and a light source that, with the headlight mounted at the vehicle and, when the light source is electrically operated, emits light through the lens to illuminate a region forward of the vehicle. The vehicular headlight system includes a cover that, with the headlight mounted at the vehicle, is movable relative to the headlight between a deployed position and a retracted position. When the cover is in the deployed position, the cover extends over and along the lens of the headlight so that the headlight is not viewable. When the cover is in the retracted position, the cover is moved laterally away and inboard of the headlight so that the headlight is viewable.

  • Publication number: 20140248005
    Abstract: An improved stand-up pouch and blank for constructing the same. The stand-up pouch comprises a front panel, a back panel, and a bottom gusset provide between the front panel and the back panel. The bottom side of each panel may comprise a left curved section and a right curved section. The front panel, back panel, and bottom gusset are sealed to one another such that the stand-up pouch is configured to move between a substantially flat state and a stand-up state. According to some aspects, the stand-up pouch is configured such that, when in the stand-up state, a portion of the pouch where the left curved sections of the bottom sides of each panel are sealed together and a portion of the pouch where the right curved sections of the bottom sides of each panel are sealed together do not contact a support surface, thus providing increased stability.
