Abstract

Der Scheinwerfer weist eine becherförmige Blende (2) zwischen einem Reflektor (1) und einer Lichtscheibe auf. Die Blende dient sowohl zur Abschirmung von direkt aus einer Lichtquelle (3) austretenden Lichtstrahlen als auch zur Abdeckung der Lichtquelle (3). Die Seitenwand (5) der becherförmigen Blende (2) ist doppelwandig ausgeführt, und ihr Boden (4), welcher als Deckel dient, grenzt mit seinem freien Randabschnitt (8) an den äußeren Wandteil (9) der Seitenwand (5) an. Ferner bestehen der von dem Boden (4) gebildete Deckel als auch der äußere Wandteil (9) der Seitenwand (5) der becherförmigen Blende (2) aus demselben Blech.

Figure 00000001
The headlight has a cup-shaped diaphragm (2) between a reflector (1) and a lens. The diaphragm serves both to shield light rays emerging directly from a light source (3) and to cover the light source (3). The side wall (5) of the cup-shaped diaphragm (2) is double-walled, and its bottom (4), which serves as a lid, borders with its free edge section (8) on the outer wall part (9) of the side wall (5). Furthermore, the cover formed by the bottom (4) and the outer wall part (9) of the side wall (5) of the cup-shaped cover (2) are made of the same sheet.
