A vehicle headlamp includes a light source, a holding portion that holds the light source, and a reflector on which the holding portion is mounted and having a reflective surface for reflecting light from the light source. The reflector has a concave portion in a portion associated with the holding portion. The concave portion has a wall surface that reflects light from the light source on an end portion thereof on a vehicle inner side. The wall surface has a detour bending portion extending in an up-down direction and having a shape that winds back and forth on a front end periphery in a vehicle-mounted state.

A vehicular lamp includes a first light source that emits light forming a passing light distribution pattern; a second light source that is disposed forward of the first light source and emits light forming a traveling light distribution pattern; a reflector that reflects the light from the first and the second light sources; a first lens that projects the light reflected forward by the reflector; and a second lens that transmits the light from the second light source toward the reflector. The second light source and the first light source are disposed on the same plane. The reflector has first and second reflective surfaces. The first reflective surface reflects the light from the first light source to the first lens. The second reflective surface is disposed forward of the first reflective surface and reflects the light from the second light source through the second lens to the first lens.

A light guide includes first and second input portions, first and second light emitting portions and a mixing portion. The mixing portion extends between the first input portion and the first light emitting portion, and between the second input portion and the second light emitting portion. Light generated by a first light source is guided from the first input portion toward the first light emitting portion, and light generated by a second light source is guided from the second input portion toward the second light emitting portion. The mixing portion is configured to receive light guided from the first input portion toward the first light emitting portion and configured to receive light guided from the second input portion toward the second light emitting portion.

A lighting module disclosed in an embodiment comprises: a plurality of light emitting devices on a substrate; and a reflector arranged in the direction of emission of light from each light emitting device on the substrate. The light emitting device has a light exit surface, and the reflector has a reflecting surface concave toward the substrate, at least a portion of the reflecting surface corresponding to the light exit surface of the light emitting device. The reflecting surface is arranged at a height that increases gradually in proportion to the interval from the light emitting device arranged in the light incident direction. The reflecting surface comprises a plurality of convex portions arranged in a first direction and first bridge portions that connect between the plurality of convex portions. The first bridge portions are arranged along the convex portions and are arranged to be lower than a straight line that connect high points of adjacent convex portions. The convex portions and the first bridge portions have the same length in a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction, and the area of the convex portions may be larger than the area of the first bridge portions.
