ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a dipped headlight for a motor vehicle, comprising a light source cooperating with a mirror in order to form an illuminating beam with a V-shaped cut-off, the mirror comprising four regions arranged side by side, a first region giving the beam its width, a second region giving the beam its range under the horizontal part of the cut-off, a third region giving the beam its range under the inclined part of the cut-off, and a fourth part giving the beam its range along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle.According to the invention, each region is joined to the adjacent region without a step, the first region of the mirror has a reflecting surface which strongly spreads the light in the lateral direction, and the second and third regions are located on the same side of the light source.
