ABSTRACT:
To form a reflection surface, a free curved surface conformed to a configuration of a car body is set for a fundamental surface of a reflection surface. A group of paraboloids of revolution having different focal distances are set, thereby to determine a group of closed curves as the lines of intersection of the fundamental surface and the group of paraboloids of revolution. The respective paraboloids of revolution are partially allotted to a portion between each pair of the adjacent closed curves of the closed curve group, whereby a plural number of reflection steps are formed. The reflection steps are arranged about the central parts in multiple loops, and the central parts are offset from the principal optical axis of the reflection mirror.
