  • Patent number: 5558423
    Abstract: A headlight has an adjustable reflector (1) which is mounted in a housing (2) closed by a light-transmissive shield (3). An opaque-baffle frame (5) surrounding the reflector extends between the reflector and the light-transmissive shield. The opaque-baffle frame supports a light-transmissive screen (4) on its rear side. A front surface of the light-transmissive screen borders on an inner edge (6) area of the opaque-baffle frame directed toward the reflector. At the bottom of a mounting area of a lamp (18) the light-transmissive screen is positioned behind an outer edge area (7) of the opaque-baffle frame. The outer edge area of the opaque-baffle frame is attached to an outer edge of the housing. The light-transmissive screen is held against movement in all directions on the rear side of the opaque-baffle frame by a shaped interlocking coupling between its outer edge and the opaque-baffle frame.
