Abstract: A motor vehicle headlight has a light source cooperating with a reflector to produce a light beam. The reflector has an active base region immediately behind the light source, and is arranged to reflect the radiation from the source to produce a beam of given photometry.

Reflection back to the source, and consequently the danger of overheating the source and/or production of parasitic images, are eliminated.

Abstract: A bulb 14 is arranged in such a manner that the lower end of a filament 16 of the bulb 14 coincides with an optical axis Ax of a reflector 10. Horizontal cut line forming steps 12aH out of a plurality of light distribution steps 12a constituting a reflecting surface 12 extend over such upper and lower areas as to interpose phantom lines Lh1, Lh2 on the reflecting surface 12 therebetween. The phantom lines will correspond to the horizontal cut lines. Vertical sections of these horizontal cut line forming steps in both upper and lower areas are set to parabolas, each having a short focus, and to parabolas, each having a long focus, respectively. The horizontal cut lines are formed by taking advantage of the luminous fluxes of reflecting light from both areas. Each parabola having a short focus is connected to the corresponding parabola having a long focus at the apex thereof smoothly. As a result, the horizontal cut line forming steps 12aH can be reduced into a single step without steps and bends.

The focal distance of the reference surface for the paraboloid-of-revolution surface changes for each segment.

Abstract: An improved pressed glass lens member for a sealed beam lamp unit is provided to include an outer sealing rim of varying thickness to compensate for thermal contraction of the lens member when molded in a predetermined manner. Specifically, the ordinary warped condition encountered with thermal contraction of the pressed glass article when initially formed is compensated for so as to permit subsequent heat sealing with a pressed glass reflector member by thermally fusing the glass material of both members in the sealing regions and without encountering the manufacturing defects now being experienced. The preferred embodiments illustrate such controlled thickness variation of the body section in the outer sealing rim region of a pressed glass lens member for both circular-shaped and rectangular-shaped lens configurations.
