ABSTRACT:
This vehicle headlamp comprises a housing adapted to be fixed to the body of a vehicle and having a light-transmissive portion through which upper and lower beams are directed. Within the housing is a discharge-type lamp serving as the light source for both these beams and an arrangement for mounting this lamp in a fixed location with respect to the housing. Also located within the housing is a reflector that is mounted on the housing in such a manner as to permit relative movement between the reflector on one hand and the housing and the lamp on the other hand. An actuating arrangement causes movement of the reflector between two spaced-apart positions while the lamp remains fixed relative to the housing. The reflector in one of said positions causes light from the lamp to be reflected from the reflector as the upper beam, and the reflector in its other position causes light from the lamp to be reflected from the reflector as said lower beam.
