ABSTRACT:
This invention discloses an auxiliary head lamp device for a car equipped with a cover, which head lamp is optionally fitted to a car, is lit when driving in fog and is equipped with a cover that can be opened by remote switching operation. The cover of this head lamp device is opened when a solenoid of a cover driving mechanism is energized by operating a switch disposed inside the room of the car. The solenoid may have a function of releasing the cover from a stopper which restricts the cover from moving in its opening direction. The switch may be used also as a switch for the bulb of the auxiliary head lamp. An electric circuit including two thermostat switches for preventing over-heat of the solenoid is preferably employed. The solenoid may be in deenergized state while keeping the bulb lit. A device equipped with a rotary solenoid for directly opening and closing the cover is also disclosed.
