DEFINITION

Classification: 362/57

(under subclass 37) Subject matter wherein the vehicle steering gear includes or the vehicle steering gear element is a bar capable of motion which functions to move both steering wheels of a vehicle in the same direction and the lamp is rotatable about an axis or the lamp support has a portion rotatable about an axis; and a motion transmission means connects the bar to the rotatable lamp or the rotatable portion of the lamp support so that the motion of the bar is used to direct the movement of a vehicle and concurrently to impart motion to the rotatable lamp or the rotatable portion of the lamp support through the motion transmission means.

(1) Note. Many patents here include a spring forming part of the rotating means which spring upon rotative movement to the rotative lamp or rotative portion of the lamp support stores energy to revert the rotating lamp or rotating portion of the lamp support back to its initial position before movement by the steering gear or steering gear element. Springs are used to bias the lamp or support against movement in a vertical direction.
