  • the flexible connections being of a kind for leading along tortuous paths as may be required on different vehicles.
  • SHEET 1 [IF 3 MECHANICAL HEADLAMP ADJUSTING MEANS BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION FIELD OF THE INVENTION
  • a motor and like vehicle having the headlamps mounted on a body which is resiliently carried on the wheels so that during darkness the light beams remain correctly directed with respect to a mean plane containing the wheel axes under varying difierently loaded conditions of the vehicle body or when rapid acceleration or deceleration takes place.
  • the rear and/or the front (as the case may be) of the vehicle sags which has the undesirable and often dangerous effect of changing the mean angle of the light beams, emitted by the headlamps, relative to the road surface.
  • a mechanical actuating arrangement for automatic adjustment of a light beam emitted by at least one headlamp of a vehicle having a resiliently suspended body and mechanical parts at the front and rear which are movable relative to the body and a mean plane containing the axes of the wheels on movement of the body relative to said plane, and also having at least one headlamp attached to a mechanism whereby the mean angle of the emitted light beam is changed relative to the body for controlling the said angle in proportion to a resultant difference in displacement of the front and rear of the vehicle body, which includes an elongated flexible member attached to a relatively movable part at one end of the vehicle and to the mechanismadapted to change the angle of the light beam emitted by the headlamp, and a connection from the relatively movable part at the opposite end of the vehicle to the said light beam angle changing mechanism; the connections of the relatively movable vehicle parts to the light beam angle changing mechanism being such that different displacing movements of the relatively movable parts at the opposite ends of
