Nuv. 29, 1932. A. J. MA'r'n-:R 1338995 HEADLIGHT Filed Nov. A14, 1929 Elg-l W! TNESSES: I ;WENTOE Patented Nov. 29, 1932 UNITED sTAr-Es ALBERT JOHN HATTEB', OF PARK BIDGE, ILLINOIS HEADLIGHT Application filed. November 14, 1929. Serial No. 407,075.
This invention relates to improvements in headlights for automobiles, locomotives and similar uses and has for its object to provlde means for controlling and directing practl- 5 cally all of the rays coming from a light source therein so that they form a straight beam of parallel light rays.
Another object is to jlrevent any of the rays of light emerging t erefrom, going in any direction other than parallel with the main light beam, thus eliminating glare outside of the desired limits of the main beam. i Another object is to provide means for forming the emerging light into any desired Shape of beam such as round, fan-shaped or otherwise, having a clear cut outer edge without glare-causing stray rays of light.
These objects are attained by means of the improvements illustrated in the accompanying drawing and described and claimed in the annexed specification and claims,
Referring now to the drawing, which illustrates what I consider, at the present time, to be the preferred form of the invention,
Fig. 1 is a Vertical longitudinal section through the center of a. headlight embodying` my invention.
ig. 2 is a front view, on a reduced scale, of that form of my invention shown in Fi 1. Referring now, more particularly to ig. 1, for the details of construction of that form of my invention which I now consider to be the preferred form, 1 represents a source of light which is here illustrated as anl incandescent lamp and which is positioned within and surrounded by a reflector 2. Completing the closure at the front, or forward of the source of light, is a lens 3. w
The reflector 2 is partly parabolic in form,
40 having two parts generally marked 2a and 2b, theportion 2b being` substantially concave, an the outer portion 2a being substantially parabolic. The portion 2b 1s of such shape that the light rays from the source of light are reflected from the reflector 2 through the span 'marked E, to the lens 3- so that they pass through the same in the zone B. The light rays striking the reflector 2 in the zone marked F are reflected and pass I through the lens 3'in the zone marked A;
The zone A is coincident with that part of the lens marked 3a and the zone B isl coincident with that part of the lens marked 3b. The portiona which is parabolic and the portion 2b of the reflector surface are so disposed at such angles to the source of light as to cause the angles formed by the reflected rays and the axis of the lamp to gradually decrease from the center of the reflector to its periphery as shown by the arrow lines in Fig. 1 which indicate the direction of the light rays. This concentration of light rays from the primary reflector within annular zones A and B 'permits the use of a secondary reflector as shown without interceting primary reflected rays. Thus in both re ector portions mentioned, the angle formed by a line extending radially from the source of light, to any point on said portions of the reflector and thence outwardly therefrom along the lines of reflection, increases as the distance from the source of light to the apex of said angle increases. Therefore, due to the form of the reflector and especially in the zone marked E, the light rays are reflected and enter the refractin lens 3 at various angles and as it is my obJect to project them in substantially parallel relation, I have formed the refracting lens With the outwardly curved form indicated at 3b necessary to produce this result.
The portions 30-86 of the lens operate to refract in parallel rays, the rays reflected angularly by the portions 2a-2b of the reuector 2 which is hereinafter referred to as the primary reflector.
The lens 3 is therefore provided with an annular inwardly extending concavo-convex lens portion 3a provided with a curved surface which, as here shown, serves to support a secondar -reflector 3d. This secondary reflector 3 may be a deposit formed upon the lens or it may be a sheet of metal or other` suitable material.
The lens portion 30 and the reflector 3d are so formed and positioned relative to the source of light and to the primary reflector 2, that the `rays of light which enter the lens portion 30 and are reflected by the reflector 3d are those which, if not thus intercepted,
would not strike the primary reflector. Due
secondary reflector 3d, the light raysare bent and take different. angular paths so that in order to have them emerge in parallel relation throughout the zone marked C, said portion 30 is formed with an annular concavity.-
The remaining light rays, which pass for- Wardly from the source of light, enter a concentrating refracting lens portione, which is of the necessary pronounced curvatureito insure the light rays emerging in the zone D at each side of the center l1ne in parallel relation.
lln order to perrnit of a compact relation of the parts, as well as the necesary functioning Shape, the inwardly projecting central portion of the lens is provided with a recess 3x in order to accommodate the fora ward portion of the casing or glass of the 'incandescent lamp forming the source of light 1.
From the foregoing description, it will be obvious that a most compact head lamp structure of primary reflector, secondary refiector, lens and source of light, is provided and which is of' such form, arrangement and construction that none of the light rays crosses `any other after leaving the lens. It is such divergent and uncontrolled rays which are generally responsible for the so-called headlight glare. Hence, since I have eliminated such stray rays and projected them in parallel relation, headlight glare is eliminated. At the same time, l have collected all of the rays and concentrated them so that a more eflicient utilization of the source of light is obtained;
While the primary reflector, the secondary refiector and the lens have been accurately formed, positioned and calculated to conform to the laws of reflection and refraotion to.
produce the desired result before described, it is evident that slight modifications may be made in the structure, provided the general principles, before described, are followed.
From the foregoing description, it will be evident that l have provided a construction, which, while it may be varied somewhat in Shape, forms practically all of the rays of light into a beam which 1s projected forwardly from the headlight and without cross rays.
The various advantages of my construction will now be apparent to those skilled in the art to which this appertains, without further description.
I claim as my invention:
1. A lens for a headlight oomprising a disclike body portion having an outer annular flat portion, an intermediate annular prismatic portion adj acent the flat portion, a central rearwardly projecting concaVo-convex portion having a reflecting rear surface, and
