Motorcycle headlight and method for controlling a light distribution thereof

摘要

An inventive headlight and a method for controlling a light distribution of the headlight of a motorcycle effectively eliminating the problem of a deteriorated light distribution pattern of a conventional headlight that becomes apparent typically when the motorcycle is tilted to maneuver the motorcycle along a curved road. A headlight 1 comprises a mirror reflector 3 divided into an upper left movable section 32, an upper right movable section 33 provided with respective pivots 32a and 33a. When the motorcycle is tilted, the tilted or lowered one of the movable sections 32 and 33 is driven to turn upward by a corresponding solenoid type driving unit 5 according to a tilt sensor 22 to face the forward of the moving motorcycle and produce a light 5 distribution pattern aligned with the direction along which the motorcycle moves so that any possible deterioration in the light distribution pattern can be effectively corrected.
