APPLCATION FILED IUNE 16, 192.0.
and saeeeediigvplates, respectively. this arrangement, a person standing in front ofthe headlight and looking therein Cannot see the lamp bulb, rior will any of the rays therefrom come within the line o vision 'of such person. All he will see isthe upper unpolished non-lustrous surm faces ot' said plates. 'bine-h non-lustrous surfaces may be obtained by the use of dull paint or in any other way common to the trade. rlhe lower surfaces of all the plates may be highly polished. ln this way, rays ot light '.lireeted against the lower polished surfaces ot' the said plates will be deleeted downwardly and forwardly. Should it be desired to further dini the ripper surfaees of the plates. they may be made in saw teeth fashion. see plate l2, so that all reflected light will hit the baoll; of the teeth and the person in lrontot' the head-light will see the trout or darkened side of such teeth only.
"Ehe arrangement ot' the plates i3, le, "l5, 1G and 1T is such that the rays ot light from the lamp are directed forwardly and downwardly below the plane of the lamp, and will illuminate the road innnediately `in front of the automobile and a good distance forward thereof. Further, the rays ot light passing between the said plates 1.3, ll, l5', lo and lT are direct rays from the lamp or reflector, and will produce a. great yvolume ol' light upon the road, without deflection ot .any lrind.
The section i2 of the reflector body has preferably the torni of a parabola, the prevalent structure in lamps ot this eharacter and it'has its interior surtare highly pol ished and constitutes the main reflector por- Wah.

This liiohly polished surtaee is VWithin the are; designated by the. dotted line 1i), Figure l. These polished surfaces are so arranged as to rollert the light .trom the lamp through the head-light, and onto and from the polished sur'l'aees of the antiglare ilates, Aasn'ill cause the light to be emitter from the head-light in a plane below the lamp bulb,
The plates may be secured to the section '12 of the body 2, by slotting the said body as at 2() Figure :2, inserting the plates in such slits and then welding the 'plates therein. This is only one of many Ways of connecting the plates to the reflector body, and l. do not wish to be limited thereto.

What .l ('laim is:
vxntiglaro means `for automobile headlights. comprising a plurality ot' spaced plates, the 'front edgesot certain of which are in a horizontal plane below the horizontal plane of the rear edges t the next and suereeding plates, and the upper sur 'aces ot' certain of said plates being of saw tooth fashion.
