Claim:
A lamp for vehicle in which a semiconductor light source is used as a light source and there is a reflector including a plurality of reflecting surfaces, a first opening and a second opening, comprising: a first reflecting surface in ellipse shape; the semiconductor light source at a first focus or its vicinity of the first reflecting surface; a second reflecting surface in parabola shape controlling the reflected light from the first reflecting surface to be reflected on the road as a light distribution pattern for high light degree having a high light portion; a third reflecting surface in parabola shape controlling the reflected light from the first reflecting surface to be reflected on the road as a light distribution pattern for collection having the light distribution pattern for high light degree; and a fourth reflecting surface in parabola shape controlling the reflected light from the first reflecting surface to be reflected on the road as a light distribution pattern for diffusion overlapping the light distribution pattern for high light degree and the light distribution pattern for collection; relative to the third reflecting surface, the second reflecting surface is at an opposing vehicle line side being opposite to a vehicle driving line side, so that the light distribution pattern for high light degree contained in the light distribution pattern for collection can be obtained at the vehicle driving line side; the second reflecting surface and the third reflecting surface are above relative to the fourth reflecting surface, so that the light distribution pattern for high light degree and the light distribution pattern for collection are above the light distribution pattern for diffusion; at a second focus of the first reflecting surface or its vicinity is provided with a light-blocking shield blocking part of the reflected light from the first reflecting surface; the light-blocking shield is provided with a light-blocking shield reflecting surface reflecting part of the reflected light from the first reflecting surface blocked by the light-blocking shield to the second reflecting surface and the third reflecting surface; the reflected light from the first reflecting surface not blocked by the light-blocking shield, comes to the fourth reflecting surface through the second opening of the reflector; part of the reflected light from the first reflecting surface blocked by the light-blocking shield is reflected by the light-blocking shield reflecting surface, the reflected light reflected by the light-blocking shield reflecting surface comes to the second reflecting surface and the third reflecting surface through the second opening of the reflector.
