Abstract
A leveling apparatus for a vehicle headlamp includes: a housing disposed at a front side of a vehicle; a light source module disposed in the housing to emit light; a tilting sensor disposed in the housing to detect an inclination degree of a road; a tilting means to tilt the light source module and the tilting sensor together; and a controller. The controller receives a signal detected by the tilting sensor and controls the tilting means based on the inclination degree of the road to adjust a light emission angle of the light source module. In addition, the tilting sensor operates until a sensed output of the tilting sensor reaches a normal range.
