Abstract

602,773. Self -contained supply systems. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO:, Ltd., GRIFFITHS, L., and PARDON, G. E. Nov. 7, 1945, No. 29681. [Class 38 (iv)] In a lighting system for a motor-driven vehicle, a headlamp 4, Fig. 1, is supplied through a switch 5 direct from an A.C. generator 1, which is also used to charge, through a half- or full-wave rectifier 3, a battery 2 for supplying parking and tail lights 7, 8 when engine speed is low or the vehicle is stationary. Switches 10, 11 controlling lamps 7 and 8 respectively may be combined with switch 5, and an electric horn 9 may be controlled by a push-button 12. When not in use, lamp 4 is disconnected by switch 5 which then connects in series with the generator, a resistance or choke 6, substantially equal in value to the resistance of lamp 4, the circuit of which may also include a choke 13. In a modification, switch 5 may be adapted to shunt lamp 4 by a resistance or choke. In another arrangement, separate windings of generator 1 supply the battery and headlamp circuits respectively. Specification 590,149 is referred to.
