Vehicle Headlight Device Having An Ejectable And Replaceable Lightbulb Assembly
The present invention relates to an ejectable headlight device for replacement of a lightbulb assembly from the front of a vehicle. The lightbulb assembly of the present invention has at least one lightbulb pin, a lightbulb base, a replaceable electromagnetic radiation source, an electrical connector, and a replaceable lens. The ejectable headlight device includes an ejector, a base that houses the ejector and has at least one guide for receiving the lightbulb pin. The device has a release arm that engages the lightbulb pin. The device further includes a pivot point and a pull attached to the release arm. When the release arm secures the lightbulb pin to the base, the device is in the locked position. When the pull engages the release arm to put the device in the unlocked position, the release arm pivots about the pivot point and disengages the lightbulb pin.
Adjustment unit for the range of a headlight for a vehicle
An adjustment unit for the mechanical adjustment of the beam range of at least one light unit of a headlight for a vehicle, comprising a main adjustment shaft, wherein the main adjustment shaft is rotatable arranged at a housing of the headlight and wherein the main adjustment shaft comprises or is coupled with a screw member, by means of which a rotary motion of the shaft can be caused in a shaft axis in order to adjust the beam range of the at least one light unit. According to the invention the main adjustment shaft comprises an engagement component, which is configured to engage with a counter engagement geometry when tilting the main adjustment shaft about a tilting axis.
PREDICTIVE MAINTENANCE OF AUTOMOTIVE LIGHTING
Systems, methods and apparatus of predictive maintenance of automotive lights. For example, a vehicle has: a vehicle light assembly; sensors configured on the vehicle to measure operating parameters of the vehicle light assembly; an artificial neural network configured to analyze the operating parameters of the vehicle light assembly as a function of time to generate a result; and at least one processor configured to generate a suggestion for a maintenance service of the vehicle light assembly based on the result from the artificial neural network analyzing the operating parameters of the vehicle light assembly. For example, the sensors can be configured to measure ambient light intensity, light intensity reflected by a surface illuminated by the light, current and/or voltage in the light, and/or light intensity at a location illuminated by both environment and the light.

UNIVERSAL SMART ADAPTOR
A method and apparatus for a lighting assembly for a vehicle can include a housing assembly and a set of adaptors. Vehicles today are often limited to specific wiring harnesses or connection types based upon manufacturer. Each adaptor of the set of adaptors can include a different connection type. The adaptors are interchangeably connectable to the housing assembly in order to vary the connection type based upon the specific wiring harness or connection type of the particular vehicle.
Retainer arrangement for the mounting of a fan on a light module of a headlamp for a vehicle
A retainer arrangement for the support of a fan on a light module of a headlamp for a vehicle as well as a fan holder for the generation of such a retainer arrangement. The fan is fastened in a detachable manner to the fan holder. The fan holder has a hinged locking element that can be moved into an open position. The fan can be installed in the fan holder and removed from the fan holder, and can be moved in a locked position, in which the fan is firmly fastened to the fan holder.
Truck cab light safety lighting device
Systems, devices, and methods for replacing an existing truck cab braking light with an after-market or retrofit universal elongated light emitting diode (LED) light device which can easily replace existing truck cab rear facing brake lights, and do not require different types of light devices for different trucks, and can be rigidly sealed and seated against the rear of the truck cab with additional fasteners. The replacement light system can include three sets of printed circuit boards having LEDS (light emitting diodes) that can be independently operated or operated together, in different colors, such as but not limited to red and white color emissions in various operating conditions. Another embodiment can use an adhesive surface across the back of the replacement brake light system bordered by a compressible weather type strip. A peelable layer can cover the adhesive surface and be peeled off when the replacement light system is to be placed on the upper back portion of the truck cab. The installer can also use some or all of the existing fasteners that were used to hold the existing brake light system in place, in combination with the peel and stick layer.
Vehicle Headlight Assembly Having An Ejectable And Replaceable Lightbulb
The present invention relates to an ejectable headlight device for replacement of one or more lightbulbs from the front of a vehicle. The lightbulb of the present invention has at least one lightbulb pin, an ejector, a base that houses the ejector and has at least one guide for receiving the lightbulb pin. The device has a release arm that engages the lightbulb pin. The device further includes a pivot point and a pull attached to the release arm. When the release arm secures the lightbulb pin to the base, the device is in the locked position. When the pull engages the release arm to put the device in the unlocked position, it allows the release arm to pivot about the pivot point and disengage the lightbulb pin. The present invention further includes methods, kits and systems utilizing same.
