Method and apparatus of aerodynamic headlight housings for vehicles

摘要

A headlight housing ( 10 ) is provided. The housing is adapted to be mounted upon a vehicle, the vehicle adapted to ride upon a ground surface ( 20 ). The housing includes a front section ( 12 ) adapted to emit light from a headlight ( 24 ). The housing also includes a top surface ( 14 ) of a substantially constant width extending aft of a top edge ( 11 ) of the front section, wherein the top surface is oriented substantially parallel with the ground surface when mounted upon the vehicle in an illuminating position. The housing further includes a bottom surface ( 16 ) of a substantially constant width extending aft of a bottom edge ( 34 ) of the front surface, wherein the bottom surface approaches the top surface as the top and bottom surfaces extend aft to taper a height of the housing. The method of positioning a headlight housing in an aerodynamic position is also disclosed.
