摘要： A beam switching device 24 is provided for switching between a low beam and a high beam by rotating a shade 22 for screening part of incident light given off from a discharge illuminant portion 18a to a reflecting surface 20a of a reflector 20. The shade 22 rotates about a rotational axis A extending in a direction which inclines a predetermined angle &THgr; relative to a horizontal plane. A rotational locus of the shade 22 can be inclined relative to a vertical plane. The beam switching device 24 can also be inclined relative to the vertical plane. Thus, a vertical dimension h from an optical axis Ax to a lower end f the beam switching device 24 is made short.

摘要： A headlamp and method for illumination of the headlamp in which during low beam irradiation, a light distribution pattern P(L) for a low beam is formed by turning on a lighting unit for a low beam and during high beam irradiation, a lighting unit for a high beam is also turned on at the same time to superpose an additional light distribution pattern P(H1) for a high beam thereon, thereby forming a light distribution pattern P(H) for a high beam. During the high beam irradiation, furthermore, a tilting unit of the headlamp is tilted upward by approximately 1.5 degrees and a hot zone HZ(L) of the light distribution pattern P(L) for a low beam is moved to a long distance region in a road placed ahead of a vehicle, thereby enhancing a distance visibility. A central luminous intensity position M of the additional light distribution pattern P(H1) for a high beam is set to be lower than a horizontal cutoff line CL1 of the light distribution pattern P(L) for a low beam by approximately 1 degree such that it is suitable for enhancing the distance visibility during the high beam irradiation.

摘要： An adaptive front-lighting system includes a lamp deflection angle controlling means for controlling a deflection angle of an auxiliary lamp that is attached to a main lamp corresponding to a traveling state of a vehicle. The system is provided with vehicle halting state detecting means for detecting a halted state in which the vehicle is halted or traveling at a very low speed, and illumination controlling means for turning off or dimming an auxiliary lamp when the halted state is continued for more than a prescribed time period. When the vehicle is halted with the auxiliary lamp deflected, and the halted state is continued for more than the prescribed time period, the auxiliary lamp is turned off or dimmed, and thus other cars and pedestrians are prevented from being dazzled by the auxiliary lamp, and the trailing car may be prevented from having a sense of insecurity.

摘要： A movable shade 22 capable of shading part of light incident on a reflector 20 from a discharge bulb 18 is pivoted longitudinally by a shade driving unit 24 to switch beams. A shade body portion 22A surrounding the discharge bulb 18 is colored blue. Thus, the blue color of the shade body portion 22A appears to be reflected on the reflector 20 when a lamp is viewed from the front while the movable shade 22 stays in a low-beam position. When a reflective area C reflecting the blue color varies in shape and size as the movable shade 22 moves to a high-beam position, beam switching can be visually confirmed easily.

摘要： The lighting device includes a light source (12) and a reflector (10), which is provided with a reflecting surface (16) with a basic shape formed so that light generated by the light source (12) is reflected from the reflecting surface (16) as a light beam with a predetermined characteristic. The reflecting surface is provided with a wave structure superimposed on the basic form and including alternating successive scattering wave sections (32; 42) and concentrating wave sections (34; 44). The extent (b) of the scattering wave section (32) perpendicular to the surface lines (33) is substantially larger than the extent (c) of the concentrating wave sections (34) perpendicular to the surface lines (35). Because of the wave structure the light beam reflected by the reflecting surface is scattered and made uniform.

摘要： An object of the present invention is to prevent dazzlement from being caused by beams of light directly emitted from a light source, without requiring any bulky component member. A vehicular headlamp 1 comprises a light source 7, a reflector 6, a cut-line forming shade 9 for forming a cut line, and a condenser lens 8. The cut-line forming shade cuts off some beams of light emitted from the light source and reflected by the reflector and forms shaped beams of light. The condenser lens projects the shaped beams of light forwards and radiates them according to a light distribution pattern. An opening is formed between the condenser lens and the reflector. A dazzling-light cutting shade 15 for cutting off beams of light emitted toward a region above the light distribution pattern is disposed between the light source and the opening.
