Patent ID: 7794128

Claim:
A vehicle lamp, comprising: a plurality of semiconductor light emitting devices; a reflector for reflecting light emitted from the semiconductor light emitting devices toward a front side of the vehicle lamp, the reflector being formed into a shape whose front area is open; and a plate-like partition member disposed inside the reflector to partition the reflector into a plurality of reflecting areas, wherein the semiconductor light emitting devices are mounted on the plate-like partition member in respective reflecting areas such that optical axes of the semiconductor light emitting devices are directed in a direction substantially perpendicular to a lamp optical axis, wherein the plate-like partition member extends in a vertical direction so as to partition the reflecting areas into left and right areas, wherein one of the reflecting areas performs a converged light distribution and the other reflecting area performs a diffused light distribution, and wherein a lens is disposed on the partition member for deflecting light emitted from one of the semiconductor light emitting devices toward a front side of the vehicle lamp.
