Adjustable indicator assembly for vehicle lamp

An adjustable indicator assembly for indicating a position of a reflector of a vehicle lamp, the vehicle lamp having an adjusting device for pivoting the reflector comprising a threaded nut engaging operational threads of a rotatable threaded shaft, said indicator assembly comprising:

• male indicator threads formed on an outer surface of the threaded shaft;
• an adjustable indicator follower for moving along said threaded shaft, said adjustable indicator follower defining a laterally-opening mouth for receiving said male indicator threads of said threaded shaft when said adjustable indicator follower is brought laterally into threaded engagement with said threaded shaft, said adjustable indicator follower having a female follower thread in said mouth for engaging said male indicator threads when said adjustable indicator follower is brought into threaded engagement with said threaded shaft;
• stationary track means for engaging said adjustable indicator follower for allowing said adjustable indicator follower to be moved laterally toward and away from said threaded shaft for moving said adjustable indicator follower into and out of threaded engagement with said threaded shaft, and for allowing said adjustable indicator follower to move longitudally along said threaded shaft, while not allowing said adjustable indicator follower to rotate with said threaded shaft;
• whereby said adjustable indicator follower can be moved laterally toward said threaded shaft to be placed in threaded engagement with said threaded shaft so as to be moved longitudally along said threaded shaft as the threaded shaft is rotated to indicate a position to which the reflector is adjusted by the threaded shaft and laterally away from the threaded shaft to remove it from the threaded engagement with the threaded shaft so that it can be moved longitudally along said threaded shaft for calibrating it to a desired position along the threaded shaft.
