Patent ID: 7631997

Claim:
A vehicular headlamp comprising: a semiconductor light emitting device that faces in a direction substantially perpendicular to a forward direction; a reflector that is formed like a curved surface so as to surround the semiconductor light emitting device, has an opening at the front of the reflector, has an optical center on the semiconductor light emitting device, and reflects forward light generated by the semiconductor light emitting device; and a light transmitting member that is formed so as to cover the semiconductor light emitting device, the light transmitting member including: a cover member that covers the semiconductor light emitting device and transmits at least a part of the light generated by the semiconductor light emitting device; and a deflection member that covers front of the semiconductor light emitting device and deflects forward a part of the light generated by the semiconductor light emitting device, wherein the deflection member is positioned in such a manner that a position of a focus of the deflection member coincides with the semiconductor light emitting device.
