Vehicle headlamp assembly for improving visibility during cornering and at speed has a reflector fitted with a main light source and an auxiliary light source to create effective light density distribution.

摘要

A headlamp unit (16) has a reflector (18) fitted with a main light source (20) and an auxiliary light source (26). A first reflector section (28) reflects light from the main source as a dipped pencil beam, creating a basic light density distribution (BLDD) as a miniumum requirement for a dipped beam. A second reflector section (30) reflects light from the auxiliary source as an additional pencil of light, creating another light density distribution to complement the BLDD.
