Light-governed windshield wiper and headlight control system with provision for maintaining the headlights on with insufficient ambient light

摘要

A light-governed windshield wiper and headlight control system including a headlight switching mechanism and wiper switching mechanism. The wiper switching mechanism is coupled to windshield wipers and both switching mechanisms have a first orientation allowing direct current to flow from a power source and a second orientation for withholding direct current therefrom. A relay control mechanism is coupled between the wiper switching mechanism, headlight switching mechanism, power source, and headlights of an automobile. The relay control mechanism has a first orientation for allowing activation of the headlights via the headlight switching mechanism, and further has a second orientation actuated by the wiper switching mechanism for allowing coincident activation of the headlights and windshield wipers. Finally, a light-governed switch is coupled to the relay control mechanism allowing continued operation of the headlights despite deactivation of wiper switching mechanism when there is insufficient light.
