A headlight device includes an optical unit to emit light and a support mechanism to support the optical unit. The optical unit includes supported pins as a first supported part and supported groove parts as a second supported part. The support mechanism includes support groove parts as a first support part that is provided on a first straight line in a predetermined first direction and contacts the supported pins and support pins as a second support part that is provided on a second straight line in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction and contacts the supported groove parts. The support mechanism supports the optical unit to be freely rotatable around the first straight line passing through the support groove parts and freely rotatable around the second straight line passing through the support pins.

A method is provided for operating a motor vehicle (100) having a headlight (1) with a projection module (2). The projection module (2) is moved into a projection position by a motor (3) to regulate a beam width of the headlight (1). The motor (3) is controlled to move the projection module (2) into the projection position and to reach a motor setpoint value. The motor setpoint value is stored in a non-volatile memory (4) of the headlight (1) and, when a voltage supply to the headlight (1) is activated following deactivation of the voltage supply, the projection module (2) is moved, starting from the stored motor setpoint value, into a leaving-home position so as to illuminate an environment adjacent to the motor vehicle (100). A headlight (1) and a motor vehicle (100) also are provided.

A bicycle including a handlebar attached to a frame at substantially a midpoint and a seat post, a plurality of light sources normally disposed to project light in either of a first, second or third forward direction, said plurality of light sources controlled by a microcomputer which employs a sensor to monitor the immediate position of either the handlebar with respect to the frame or the orientation of the bicycle with respect to the horizontal, and which selects the appropriate light source to be illuminated to project light in the most preferred direction to illuminate the anticipated path of the bicycle to improve visibility and safety during operation, particularly under low ambient light conditions, and wherein the microcomputer activates one or more front or rear turn signals, and brake lights in response to movement of the bicycle, handlebars or a manual signal.

An adaptive illuminating headlight is provided. The adaptive illuminating headlight includes a stator structure, a rotor structure, a driver, a light emitting unit, an optical assembly, and a control unit, and is installed on a vehicle for use. The rotor structure is configured to rotate relative to the stator structure and has a carrying surface. The driver is arranged between the stator structure and the rotor structure to drive the rotor structure. The light emitting unit is arranged on the carrying surface to emit an illumination light beam. The optical assembly is configured to allow the illumination light beam to project outwardly so as to produce an illumination pattern. The control unit is configured to control the driver to operate according to a posture change of a vehicle body, such that the light emitting unit is driven by the rotor structure to rotate through a predetermined angle.

A rotation adjustment mechanism includes a rotation target module supported by a fixation member to be freely rotatable around a first rotary shaft and an adjustment unit supported by the fixation member and including a slider movable along a slide axis pointing in a direction orthogonal to the first rotary shaft. The adjustment unit is supported to be freely rotatable around a second rotary shaft parallel to the first rotary shaft and provided on the fixation member. The rotation target module includes a connection groove. The fixation member includes a cam member. The cam member has a guide surface in an arc-like shape that maintains constant a rotation angle of a contact point where the connection groove and a projection part of the slider contact each other around the first rotary shaft with respect to a unit movement amount of the slider in a direction parallel to the slide axis.

A headlight horizontal lighting pattern adjustment system includes an inclination angle sensor connected to a vehicle to sense an inclination angle value of the vehicle. A processing unit receives the inclination angle value and processes the inclination angle value into a driving value. A driving module drives a lighting device. The driving module commands the driving device to driving and rotate the lighting device according the driving value. The headlight horizontal lighting pattern adjustment system is equipped to a motorbike or an electric motorbike. When the motorbike turns and tilt, the processing unit adjusts the light of the lighting device by the driving module and the driving device to eliminate dark corners in the dark zone and maintains the full scale of light pattern to enhance safety to all the road users.
