Description

1 parts
›FIG. 1 is an outside elevational view of…

FIG. 1 is an outside elevational view of a headlamp for an automobile in accordance with a first embodiment of our new design;

FIG. 2 is an inside elevational view thereof;

FIG. 3 is a top plan view thereof;

FIG. 4 is a bottom plan view thereof;

FIG. 5 is a front side elevational view thereof;

FIG. 6 is a rear side elevational view thereof; and,

FIG. 7 is a front side perspective view thereof.

The headlamp is configured to be mounted to an automobile. The mounting structure and support structure of the headlamp, shown in broken lines in FIGS. 1 to 7 , form no part of the claimed design since the mounting structure and support structure are hidden when the headlamp is mounted to the automobile.

In addition, the appearance of the rear side structures and inside structures of the headlamp as shown in broken lines in FIGS. 1 to 7 is for purpose of illustrating the boundaries of the exterior surface of the outside of the headlamp, and forms no part of the claimed design. The headlamp has a front lens that is transparent such that features behind the lens are at least partially visible as illustrated.

A second embodiment of our new design is identical to the first embodiment. The second embodiment of our new design includes the mirror image of the headlamp shown in FIGS. 1 to 7 .
