Headlight mounting and adjustment mechanism

摘要

A headlight mounting and adjustment mechanism particularly suited for use in a motor vehicle for adjusting the direction in which the headlight is aimed includes a headlight assembly elastically yieldably supported by a headlight support at one location. A dual adjustment device is provided for effecting the up-and-down or vertical adjustment and also the left-to-right or horizontal adjustment of the headlight assembly. The dual adjustment device includes a sliding block supported for sliding movement between front and rear positions by a guide wall structure fixedly attached to the headlight support, and the sliding block has a bearing projection operatively and rotatably coupled to the headlight assembly, a horizontal adjusting bolt member threadingly extended through the slide block and received by the headlight support, and a vertical adjusting bolt member having one end coupled to the headlight assembly and the other end threadingly engaged with the sliding block or the headlight support so that by turning the vertical adjusting bolt member the up-and-down adjustment of the headlight assembly is achieved.
