Abstract
A vehicle front lamp includes a light source upper and lower first curved surfaces made of composite curved surfaces to reflect a light beam from a light source in the left direction and in the right direction, respectively, the upper and lower first curved surfaces being respectively mounted at higher and lower positions than the light source; and upper and lower second curved surfaces for reflecting a light beam reflected from the upper and lower first curved surfaces for making the light beam substantially parallel in the forward direction of the vehicle, the upper and lower second curved surfaces being mounted at the right and left of the light source. The composite curved surfaces of the upper first curved surface are slanted by an angle of 10 to 35 degrees so as to direct the reflected light beam downward; the composite curved surfaces of the lower first curved surface are slanted by an angle of 10 to 35 degrees so as to direct the reflected light beam upward. The upper and lower second curved surfaces are in contact relation with each other substantially along a line, and light shielding units are mounted at the right and left of the light source along the line defining the contact between the upper and lower second curved surfaces.
