Abstract: First and second reflectors are mounted in a housing covered by a light transmissive shield. The first reflector reflects substantially parallel light beams in a light exiting direction from its bulb while the second reflector is somewhat elliptically shaped and is built as a fixed optical unit with a frame which holds a collecting lens in a light beam path and a blinder, or light-blocking shield, between the second reflector and collecting lens approximately at a focus point of the collecting lens. A separate supporting member is fastened to an outer framing portion of the second reflector and has a portion extending to an apex area of the first reflector. This portion is both a receiving element for the bulb of the first reflector and a mounting element of the first reflector. Further, the separate supporting member is attached to the housing to be adjustable about at least one axis.

Abstract: The invention concerns a headlight for motor vehicles with an annular mount that accommodates a cover plate and is connected to a reflector by an adjustment device and two bearings. The reflector can be pivoted around the axis of the bearings, which is horizontal when the headlight has been mounted. The reflector and the annular mount each have a cylindrical wall that face each other and overlap but do not come into contact with each other, and clamp between them a sealing ring that has a circular cross-section. The pivoting axis of the reflector is in the same plane as the sealing ring. The facing ends of the cylindrical wall of the reflector and of the mount face have no elevations or depressions. The two pivot bearings each consist of a tab shaped onto either the mount or the reflector and rotating on either the reflector or the mount.
