Strahlenblende

German to English Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks
This is an illumination device for headlights. Is this known as a bulb shield?

Die Beleuchtungsvorrichtung umfasst eine Strahlenblende, wobei die Strahlenblende eine optisch relevante Blendenkante zur Erzeugung einer Hell-Dunkel-Grenze umfasst.

Alexandra Timms Jan 26, 2023:
I also think it is a bulb shield/guard. From what I can find online, diagrams of headlights all seem to show the Strahlenblende as a bulb shield. It also translates as "cover" in the IATE dictionary, but in a different context.

I don't think this is "an illumination device for headlights". Isn't it something that goes over them?
I think "bulb shield" might work. Here's a picture of a Strahlenblende:

Bulb shield

If you look at the diagrams in the links below (click on the arrows), it looks like it is indeed known as the bulb shield.

The lighting device includes a beam splitter, wherein the beam splitter includes an optically relevant aperture edge for generating a light-dark boundary.

neutral philgoddard : I don't know why you've put "100", but I checked out "beam splitter" and it appears to be a cable.
