    摘要: An automotive headlamp having a tilt measuring device for measuring an amount of horizontal tilt of a reflector is mounted between an aiming screw and a guide member extending parallel to the aiming screw. The aiming screw is supported by a lamp body. By turning (or moving back and forth) the aiming screw, the reflector is tilted in the horizontal direction. The tilt measuring device includes a slide member loosely coupled to the aiming screw and slidable along a guide member, a screw holding member functioning such that when the screw holding member grasps the aiming screw in proximity to the slide member, the sliding motion of the slide member is associated with the rotation (or the back and forth movement) of the aiming screw, and when the screw holding member is retracted to the side of the aiming screw, the coupling of the slide member with the aiming screw is released, a cursor provided on the slide member, and a scale provided on the guide member.

    摘要: A vehicular headlamp having an aiming leveling device in which a support table is formed so as to project from a reflector which is tiltable relatively to a lamp body, and a bubble tube support frame supporting a linear bubble tube is provided in such a manner that one end of the support frame is fixed to the support table while the other end of the support frame is held by a zero point adjusting means used to adjust the position of the other end of the support frame in the up/down direction, with the support frame extending substantially parallel to an optical axis, and with the quantity of tilting of the reflector in the up/down direction being indicated by the bubble tube. The zero point adjusting means is constituted by a leaf-spring-like bubble tube support frame formed by cutting and bending a metal sheet, a tapped hole provided in the bubble tube support frame and extending in the up/down direction, and a zero point adjustment screw screwed into the tapped hole while penetrating the bubble tube support frame in the up/down direction and with the butt end surface of the zero point adjustment screw pressed against a screw-contact surface of a reflector. The inclination of the bubble tube support frame (linear bubble tube) can be adjusted by rotating the zero point adjustment screw to thereby change the quantity of reflector-side projection of the zero point adjustment screw.

    摘要: A reflector 20 installed in a lamp body 10 of a headlamp is supported by an aiming mechanism E1 in such a way as to adjustably tilt the reflector 20. The aiming mechanism E1 includes one ball joint 13 which is held between the reflector 20 and the lamp body 10, two aiming screws 16 and 18 which are each rotatably supported by the lamp body 10, and nut members 17 and 19 which are each screwed onto the aiming screws 16 and 18 and integrally fitted to the reflector 20. The reflector 20 is fitted with a light-distribution switching mechanism F1 for alternatively switching between light distribution for a low beam and light distribution for a high beam. Each of the nut members 17 and 19 is carried by a pair of vertically opposed horizontal ribs 52 and 52 extendedly formed in the lamp body 10 so that a reflector-side load (weight) acting on the aiming mechanism E1 is reduced to ensure smooth aiming and the formation of adequate light distribution.

    摘要: A head lamp with a movable reflector. The headlamp includes a lamp body, a reflector with a light source mounted thereon, and an aiming mechanism interposed between the lamp body and the reflector (14) for tiltably supporting the reflector (14) with respect to the lamp body. The reflector tilts by the rotational movement of the aiming screw which is rotatably supported in a screw insertion hole formed on the lamp body. The screw insertion hole is formed by a tubular portion, and the front portion of the tubular portion includes divided swinging strips (53) which are resiliently deformable in the radial direction. The swinging strips engage with an engaging groove formed on the aiming screw to prevent the aiming screw from being detached from the lamp body. The aiming screw includes a rotatably supported portion formed of resin, a male screw portion, and a gear portion behind the rotatably supported portion. Further, the rotatably supported portion is unitarily formed with a skirt type resilient watertight rib (34b) in pressurized contact, and sliding contact, with the end surface of the backward extension of the tubular portion to ensure the resilient support of the aiming screw in the forward and backward direction and to ensure watertightness at the rotatably supported portion.
