Abstract
A light emitting element, a reflector, a projection lens, and a movable shade are arranged in a lamp chamber. As the movable shade is erected, a low beam is formed. As the movable shade is tilted, a travelling beam is formed. The reflector and a sub reflector are integrally formed. The movable reflector reflects the reflected light reflected by the sub reflector toward the projection lens. The sub reflector is positioned in a range of an outer shape of the projection lens.
