Abstract
Adjustment device of the position of a first part of a lighting and/or signaling device of a motor vehicle in relation to a second part of this device. The adjustment device has a screw in mechanical liaison with the first part and in helical liaison with the second part, the helical liaison comprising: a sliding pivot liaison linking the screw to the second part, the screw being clipped into a bore which has an opening according to a first axis (X) and a conformation completed on the second part which matches the threads of the screw.
Claims19
An adjustment device for adjusting a relative position of a first part of a lighting or signalling device of a motor vehicle in relation to a second part of said lighting or signalling device, comprising a screw in mechanical connection with said first part and in helical connection with said second part, wherein said helical connection comprises the following:
- a sliding pivot linking said screw to said second part, said screw being adapted to pivot to a closed position and clipped into a bore which has an opening according to a first axis (X);
- and
- said second part having complementary thread(s) that mate with the threads of said screw;
- said sliding pivot permitting said screw to be pivoted between an open position and said closed position and a threaded connection or mating of said thread(s) of said second part to said thread(s) of said screw being completed when said screw is clipped into said bore;
- wherein said second part comprises a hollow shape defining a semi-cylindrical bore having at least one projection that mates with threads on said screw to provide said helical connection;
- wherein at least one of said first part or said second part comprises at least one reflector that responsive to the movement of said screw.
