Description
21~ 59~ ~3 SUPPORT MEMBER POR A HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY
This invention concerns vehicle headlamps and more particu-larly a support member interposed between a headlamp and a mounting bracket fixed to the front of a vehicle for supporting the headlamp while the latter is adjusted about mutually perpendicular aim axes.
More specifically, the support member according to the present invention is generally L-shaped in configuration and has three sockets formed therein for receiving a pair of longitudinally ad~ustable bulb pivots and a fixed bulb pivot, all of which are carried by the mounting bracket secured to the vehicle. In addition, the lower portion of the support member is formed with a pocket member that allows a pro~ection integral with the lower portion o~ the headlamp to be received by the pocket member and afterwards tilted into an upright position and secured to the upper panel of the support member by a pair of shafts accessible from above the headlamp. Thus, if the headlamp subsequently needs to be removed from the vehicle or if the lamp bulbs carried by the headlamp need replacement, it is a simple matter to pull the two shafts to release the headlamp from the support member.
The obJects of the present invention are to provide a new and improved support member for a headlamp that facilitates replacement of the headlamp and/or the lamp bulbs mounted in the headlamp; to provide a new and improved support member that is carried by the adjustable .. : .

Figure 2 is a front elevational view showing the various parts of the headlamp assembly of Figure 1 interconnected for allowing ` ad~ustable movement of the headlamp about a vertical aim axi~ and a `''.'! horizontal aim axis;
Figure 3 is an elevational sectional view of the headlamp ~` assembly taken on line 3-3 of Figure 2; and Figure 4 i8 a similar view of the headlamp assembly taken on line 4-4 of Figure 2.
Referring now to the drawings and more particularly Figure 1 ` 10 and 2 thereof a headla-p assembly 10 is shown of the replaceable light bulb composite type. The headlamp assembly 10 includes a mounting , bracket 12 whlch connect~ through a support member 14 to a headlamp body 16 for a selective ad~ustable movement of the lamp body 16 in a horizontal plane containing a horizontal alm axis A and a vertlcal plane containing a vertical aim axis ~. The lamp body 16 include3 a plastic reflector member 18 enclosed by a glass or the like lenJ 19 and formed wlth a pair of side by side parabolic cavities 20 and 21 the concave surfaces of each of which is aluminized so as to pro~ect a light beam forwardly of the vehicle.
The mounting bracket 12 is made of a plastic material and is adapted to be secured to the sheet metal of the motor vehicle (not shown) at the front end thereof and has a main body portion that is generally T-shaped a~ best seen in Figure 1. The mounting bracket 12 : A
-; , . .. ~ ;, .
is similar to that seen in US Patent 4916586 lssued Aprll 10, 1990. The mounting bracket 12 lnclutes a palr of laterally spaced at~ustment mechanisms 22 and 24 for positioning the lamp body 16 about the aforementioned ai~ axes A ant B. The ad~ustment mechanism 22 18 located wlthin the vertical leg portion of the mounting bracket 12 while the ad~ustment mechanism 24 i8 locatet at the tenminal end of the horlzontal leg portion of the mounting bracket 12.
As best seen in Figure 3, the ad~ustment mechanism 22 is located within a houslng 26 which pro~ects forwardly outwardly from 3 and is integral with the lower end of the vertical leg portion of the mounting bracket 12. The housing 26 contains the usual bevel gears as seen in Pigure 5 of the U.S. patent 4,742,435 issued May 3, 1988 so a~
to convert manual rotatable movement of a shaft 28 into longitudinal movement of a threaded shaft 30 the front end of which is integrally formed with a ball pivot member 32. The upper end of the vertical leg portion carries a ball pivot member 34 which is integral with L-shaped shaft 36 fixedly molded in the associated leg portion. Thu~, the centers of the ball plvot member 32 and 34 define the vertlcal alm 20 axls B about whlch th- lamp body 16 is ad~ustable by the ad~ustment mechanlsm 24. In this regard, it will be noted that ad~ustment mechanism 24 also has a vertical shaft 38 the lower end of which connects through a bevel gear arrangement located within a housing 40 which forms an integral part of the terminal end of the horizontal ~ 'r:
2~9~
~ - 5 _ -- portion of the mounting bracket 12. The bevel gear arrangement transmits drive to a longitudinally movable threaded shaft 42 which is integral with a ball pivot member 44. Also, the centers of the ball pivot members 34 and 44 define the horizontal aim axis A about which the lamp body 16 is adjustable by the ad~ustment mechanism 22.
Rather than having the ball pivot members 32, 34, 44 connected directly to the lamp body 16 in the manner of the above referred to patent application, in this instance, and in accordance with the invention, the support member 14 is interposed between the mounting bracket 12 and the lamp body 16. As in the case of the mounting bracket 12, the support member 14 has a main body portion that is generally T-shaped and is molded from a plastic material as seen in Figures 1 and 2. As seen in Figure 3, the vertical leg portion 46 of the support member 14 is formed with a pair of socket~
48 and 50 which receive the ball pivot members 32 and 34, respectlvely, in a snap action fashion. Similarly, the horizontal leg : portion 52 of the support member 14 has a socket 54 molded therein which receives the ball pivot member 44 in a snap action fashion. The .-. support member 14 also has a pair of laterally spaced arms 56 and 58 ~` 20 integrally formed wlth the horizontal leg portion 52 . Each arm 56 .. and 58 has a locator pin 60 formed thereon ad~acent to a threaded bore 62. The lower end of the vertical leg portion 46 also has a laterally :.

~ 2~59~3 The support member 14 described above is intended to be permanently connected to the ball pivot members 32, 34, and 44 while ~ removably supporting the lamp body 16. To this end, it will be noted ~ that the rear portion of the reflector member 18 is integrally formed at the upper portion thereof with a pair of rearwardly extending . connector members 68 and 70 with connector member 70 located outboard . of the cavity 21 while connector member 68 is located between the two cavities 20 and 21 of the reflector member 18. The connector members 68 and 70 are spaced from each other a distance which equals the ~` 10 spacing between the arms 56 and 58 formed on the support member 14.
