TITLE: MOTOR VEHICLE HEADLIGHT MODULE A motor vehicle headlight module wherein the reflector includes a dual chambered protruding rear portion, a pair of conductive terminals securedly positioned within this rear portion, a contact member including an insulative body portion and a pair of electrical contacts positioned thereon and a lighting capsule (e.g., low wattage tungsten halogen) designed for being initially secured to the contact member such that this assembly (capsule-contact member) can then be precisely oriented within a first of the two chambers of the reflector. During such positioning, the contacts of the contact member are electrically connected (e.g., laser welded) to the pair of conductive terminals, respectively. An external connector (e.g., forming part of the vehicle's electrical circuitry) may then be positioned within the second chamber and thus electrically coupled to the precisely oriented capsule, said connection being established through the positioned conductive terminals. The invention is of extremely compact design and, in one embodiment, possessed an overall height of only about two inches and a width of about 2.5 inches, such that when utilized with other, similar modules in a headlighting assembly, resulted in an overall assembly having a relatively small total forward area. Greater aerodynamic capabilities are thus possible for any motor vehicle utilizing such an assembly. |
