ABSTRACT:
A headlight unit for a motor car has a reflector which is held pivotably at its edge areas on holding elements, one of which forms a fixed bearing and the other two of which are setting screws which form pivot bearings which permit the horizontal and vertical basic setting of the headlight to be adjusted. At the outer upper corner of the reflector there is provided a ball and socket joint which forms the fixed bearing of the headlight, and at the inner upper and lower corners of the reflector there is formed, in each case, a guiding edge which extends in an arcuate path relative to the fixed bearing. Guide catches formed at the top and bottom of a fastening member slide on the guiding edges. The fastening member is supported at the top by a pin which fits in a sleeve on the car bodywork to form--with the fixed bearing--the horizontal pivot axis of the headlight. At the bottom, the fastening member is supported by a slope-setting screw on the bodywork. Approximately in the center of the fastening member a lateral setting screw is received whose other end engages on the reflector and which is held pivotably movably on the fastening member by way of a membrane hinge.
