Patent number: 6050705Abstract: There is provided a vehicle headlight having a light emitter for emitting light and a reflector for reflecting light in a generally convergent manner. The headlight also includes a lens for passage therethrough of light reflected from the reflector. The vehicle headlight further includes a peripheral light enhancing member disposed relative to the lens for receiving at least a portion of the light exiting the headlight without passing through the lens, the peripheral light enhancing member generally following the trace of at least a portion of the outer periphery of the lens and forming a pass through portion through which light may pass substantially without alteration thereof, and the peripheral light enhancing member having the characteristic to permit at least a portion of the light emitted by the light emitter to pass therethrough and having the characteristic to permit at least a portion of light falling on the headlight from outside of the headlight to pass therethrough.Type: GrantFiled: February 3, 1998Date of Patent: April 18, 2000Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Peter Kusserow, Heike Eichler

Patent number: 5700079Abstract: A headlight has a housing accommodating a gas discharge lamp and opening is closeable by a closing part. The gas discharge lamp is connectable by an electrical conductor with a voltage source, which is provided with a plug connection. The first plug part is arranged on the housing while the second plug part is releasable from outside of the housing. The releasable plug part blocks the cover in its position in which it closes the opening so that a removal of the cover for releasing the opening can be performed only after removal of the plug part. It is therefore guaranteed that no voltage applies to the parts of the headlight.Type: GrantFiled: September 28, 1994Date of Patent: December 23, 1997Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Bernhard Woerner, Kurt Haug, Thomas Fabry, Peter Kusserow, Bert Jenner

Patent number: 5677596Abstract: A plug has a two-part housing accommodating a printed board with an electrical screening element for preventing propagation of electrical disturbing radiation during the operation of a gas discharge lamp. A mass of a durable elastic material such as silicon is applied on a part of the periphery of at least one screening element between the screening element and the adjoining housing part. The inner space of the housing is filled with a casting mass of an electrically insulating material in which also an elastic mass is enclosed. The elastic mass uncouples the screening element from the housing and from the casting mass, so that a thermal expansion of the screening element is possible and also vibrations of the plug are not rigidly transmitted to the screening element.Type: GrantFiled: January 30, 1996Date of Patent: October 14, 1997Assignee: Robert Bosch GmbHInventors: Alexander Mueller, Thomas Fabry, Peter Kusserow, Thomas Loeffler
