Vehicle lamp with light emitting diodes

DRIVE April 21, 2004

A vehicle lamp includes a set of first reflection surfaces (8) that reflect the light emitted by a first diode (6) toward a lamp lens, and a set of second reflection surfaces (9) that reflect light emitted by a second diode (7) toward the lamp lens. The first reflection surfaces (8) and the second reflection surfaces (9) are alternately provided in the path of the light that is reflected from the lamp lens. Each of the first reflection surface (9) is a part of a rotational paraboloid having a focus on a light emission source of the first diode (6) such that the paraboloids corresponding to the first reflection surfaces (8) that are farther from the first diode (6) have longer focal lengths. Each of the second reflection surface (9) is a part of a rotational paraboloid having a focus on a light emission source of the second diode (7) such that the paraboloids corresponding to the second reflection surfaces (9) that are farther from the second diode (7) have longer focal lengths.
