Abstract
An apparatus for driving a headlamp shield is provided, which simplifies the operation structure of a bi-functional headlamp shield to reduce costs and improve quality. The apparatus includes a shield that rotates integrally with a rotary shaft thereof, and a coil section formed to cylindrically surround the rotary shaft, and that is configured to generate an electromagnetic force for moving the rotary shaft in a linear trajectory when a current is applied to the coil section. Further, a motion direction switching component adjusts the linear axial movement of the rotary shaft to axial rotation thereof.
