A reflector for a dimmed or dimmable motor vehicle headlight is divided into an asymmetrical wedge-shaped sector, an upper sector, and a lower sector which are stepped axially from on another. The reflection surface is thereby formed such that a desirable light distribution is achieved without a correcting lens in horizontal and vertical areas perpendicular to a middle axis of the headlight. The desired light distribution of the asymmetrical wedge-shape sector is such that a corresponding point of every reflected light-filament image of each arbitrary point of the asymmetrical wedge-shaped reflection surface is positioned immediately near a prescribed borderline, such as a legislatively mandated borderline.

Reflector for dimmed or dimmable motor vehicle headlights

The invention refers to a motor vehicle projection headlight, where the projection lens is in part covered by a light transmitting plate. The light transmitting plate has edge regions which are of a wider diameter than the lens. An annular light impermeable cover, which surrounds the lens immediately and at a small distance, is disposed at a distance to the edge region of the light permeable plate. The surface of the cover toward the light transmitting plate is of high reflectivity.
