Patent ID: 8523414

Claim:
A vehicle headlamp comprising: a light source having a light emitting surface, the light emitting surface including at least a linear side; and a reflector adapted to reflect light emitted by the light source to form a light distribution pattern having a first cut-off line and a second cut-off line, wherein the first cut-off line and the second cut-off line intersect each other with an angle, wherein the vehicle headlamp comprises an optical axis and a transverse direction of a vehicle, which is perpendicular to the optical axis, wherein the reflector comprises a left region disposed on a left side in the transverse direction, and a right region disposed on a right side in the transverse direction, wherein areas of the right region and the left region are different from each other, wherein the reflector further comprises a plurality of first reflecting portions configured to form the first cut-off line by images of said linear side of the light emitting surface reflected on the first reflecting portions and a plurality of second reflecting portions configured to form the second cut-off line by images of said linear side of the light emitting surface reflected on the second reflecting portions, wherein the light source is disposed so that said linear side of the light emitting surface is oblique with respect to the optical axis and both of the first reflecting portions and the second reflecting portions are positioned in one of the right region and the left region having a larger area.
