  • Patent number: 4450200
    Abstract: A composition forming coated films having an excellent chipping resistance, containing:A. at least one polyester resin derived from (1) at least one acid component selected from the group consisting of dibasic acids and derivatives thereof and (2) at least one alcohol component selected from the group consisting of polyhydric alcohols and derivatives thereof; andB. at least one aminoplast resin having a number-average molecular weight of 800 to 1400,The polyester resin containing at least 20% by weight of the acid component being an aliphatic dibasic acid having 4 to 10 carbon atoms and at least 20% by weight of the alcohol component being a dihydric alcohol having 2 to 6 carbon atoms, the polyester resin having a number-average molecular weight of 2000 to 4000, a hydroxyl number of 30 to 75 and an acid number of 5 to 15.The weight ratio of the polyester resin to the aminoplast resin is 60/40 to 95/5.

  • Patent number: 4320554
    Abstract: An outside mirror with a wiper is disclosed. The outside mirror includes a mirror drive motor and a wiper drive motor for a wiper. The wiper drive motor is mounted for rotation about an axis perpendicular to the mirror drive motor. The wiper is spring biased against the mirror to follow the movement thereof. As the mirror pivots about a vertical axis, a wiper guide urges the drive motor to pivot correspondingly so that the wiper follows the mirror surface. As the mirror pivots about a horizontal axis, the spring biased wiper follows the mirror to maintain the proper wiping contact with the mirror.

  • Patent number: 4186427
    Abstract: A wire length adjusting device comprises an adjust screw threadedly engaging a nut fixed to one end of a headlight mounting frame, the other end of which is hingedly mounted to a vehicle body. The adjust screw has a head disposed within an area on outside of the headlight mounting frame. A wire for adjusting a headlight beam has one end anchored to the adjust screw and the other end operatively connected to a controller having its manually operative dial extending into the passenger compartment. A member, such as a headlight finisher or a radiator grill, mounted to the vehicle body within an area on outside of the headlight mounting frame is formed with a hole so as to permit a mating tool for turning the head of the adjust screw to reach the head of the adjust screw, whereby the wire length compensation can be carried out from the outside of the vehicle without removing the member.

  • Patent number: 4141063
    Abstract: To vary the angle at which the headlight beams are directed only road surface from within the passenger compartment of a moving vehicle, spring forces urging hinged headlight mounting frames foreward are matched by the force of a spring assisting a winder to urge, via a first cable, lever, second and third cables, the frames in the opposite direction such that the force required to move the frames in either direction via a knob in the passenger compartment is substantially that required to move the frames if they were hanging or otherwise under the influence of only their own weight.
