ABSTRACT:
A vehicular headlamp which includes a lamp housing and a reflector tiltably supported within the lamp housing by an aiming screw and aiming fulcrums. The aiming screw penetrates the lamp housing and is rotatably supported thereby. The front end of the aiming screw engages the reflector while the rear end protrudes from the lamp housing and is secured to a gear. An adjustment shaft is rotatably supported by the lamp housing, a rear end of the adjustment shaft being fixed to a gear engaging with the gear of the aiming screw. The two gears constitute a gear section which is covered with a cover member having an opening which opens downward, thereby preventing foreign matter such as dirt, water or dust from adhering to the gear section and allowing foreign matter to be immediately discharged from the cover member.
