ABSTRACT:
A folding headlight for motor vehicles in which the housing holding the main headlights, has a topside which is made at least partially of a light-permeable material. An auxiliary headlight is located within the topside portion of the housing and serves as a light signal. The auxiliary headlight is aligned in the folded position of the housing and has its main beam axis parallel to the longitudinal axis of the vehicle. When viewed in the direction of travel, the auxiliary headlight is located ahead of the main headlights and is displaced upward relative to them. The auxiliary headlight is a broad-band headlight, and the main beam axes of the auxiliary headlight and the main headlight include an angle which corresponds to the tilt angle of the housing. In the extended position of the housing, the light signal is connected to the main headlight which is constructed as a long-distance headlight.
