Abstract:
1. A vehicle lamp comprising: a light source; a projector lens, wherein said projector lens is immobile and fixed in position relative to a reflector such that a rear end surface of the projector lens is inclined, and a lower end of the rear end surface of the projector lens protrudes more frontward than an upper end of the rear surface; the reflector having a focal point near the light source and having a reflecting surface that reflects light emitted from the light source toward the projector lens; and a shade that shields a part of reflected light and has an end in the vicinity of a rear focal point of the projector lens; wherein the reflector has a correcting step that corrects a distributed light pattern projected forward, wherein the correcting step is provided at a portion of the reflector in the vicinity of an area where the reflecting surface intersects a horizontal plane passing an optical axis of the vehicle lamp, and wherein the correcting step is formed so that the more distant a distance from the optical axis is, the more downward a normal line of the reflecting surface at the portion is oriented.
