Abstract

A headlamp has a complex reflector, a refractor, and a light source. The refractor is composed of upper and lower paraboloidal segments shaped such that the focal distance of the upper paraboloidal segment is shorter than the focal distance of the lower segment. The segments are provided with optical elements in the form of parabolic cylinders with a horizontal forming axis. The profile of the parabolic cylinders form is identical to the profile of the paraboloidal segments. The axis of the light source is located above the axis of the headlamp and the focii of the upper and lower paraboloidal segments are located adjacent the light source end faces.
