The reflector of the headlamp is pivotally supported within a housing for vertical tilting about a horizontal axis and for horizontal pivoting about a vertical axis. A bubble level is carried by the reflector and may be adjusted relative thereto to a level position after the reflector has been tilted about the horizontal axis to establish proper vertical aiming of the headlamp beam. A horizontal indicator is located at the same inspection position as the bubble level and may be adjusted to a zero setting after the reflector has been pivoted about the vertical axis to establish proper horizontal aiming of the beam. Part of a mounting platform for the bubble level also serves as part of an indicating scale for the horizontal indicator.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION The general aim of the present invention is to provide new and improved apparatus in which the vertical and horizontal indicators are substantially incorporated into one unit located in a single inspection area so as to facilitate reading of the indicators and to reduce the cost of the overall apparatus.
A more detailed object of the invention is to use a portion of the mounting platform of the vertical indicator to form part of the indicating scale of the horizontal indicator and thus advantageously utilize the mounting platform to perform two functions.
The invention also resides in the provision of a single transparent cover for enclosing the indicators and in the unique manner of effecting adjustment of the horizontal indicator.
These and other objects and advantages of the invention will become more apparent from the following detailed description when taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
