Lighting corrector for motor vehicle headlamp with improved abutment
20170349086 · 2017-12-07 ·

The invention relates to a lighting height corrector for a motor-vehicle headlamp with a reflector, comprising an adjustment element (9) capable of modifying the tilt of said reflector (3), a threaded rod (10), and a means for actuating the translation (7) of said threaded rod (10), said adjustment element (9) being translatably movable by being screwed or unscrewed on said threaded rod (10), said adjustment element (9) including for this purpose at least one thread (92) shaped such as to engage with the threading of said threaded rod (10), characterised in that the threading of said threaded rod (10) includes, at the distal end thereof, at least one abutment (104a) shaped to limit the translation of the adjustment element (9) away from the threaded rod (10), by engaging with said thread (92).

LIGHTING DEVICE

A substrate supports a light source and a control circuit. The control circuit is configured to be able to control lighting and lights-out of the light source. The substrate is supported to a conductive housing. The housing is configured to couple with a transparent cover through which light emitted from the light source is to pass. The housing has a through-hole. A connector unit has a connection part and a terminal holding part. The connection part is arranged outside the housing. At least a part of the insulating terminal holding part is arranged in the through hole. The terminal holding part holds a conductive terminal. The conductive terminal is coupled to the substrate and electrically connected to the control circuit.

Lighting apparatus
09834135 · 2017-12-05 · ·

A lighting apparatus includes: a light source; a sealed housing accommodating the light source therein; and an aiming screw rotatably supported in a through-hole which extends through the housing. Therefore, an optical axis of light emitted from the light source can be adjusted by rotating the aiming screw. A breathing passage communicating inside and outside of the housing with each other is provided inside the aiming screw, so that it is unnecessary to separately provide a breathing passage, thereby enabling decrease in the number of parts, and simplification of the structure. Accordingly, breathing of the housing of the lighting apparatus is achieved using a simple and compact structure.

Vehicle headlamp device
