Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0381851A1] The dimmed headlamp for motor vehicles, which uses the projection principle, has a fixed stop (3), which is arranged between the collecting lens (2) and the reflector (1) and whose stop edge (9) produces the low-beam cut-off of an asymmetrical light distribution. In addition to the fixed stop (3), the headlamp has a stop (4) which can be set in an active position and a rest position. In the active position of the stop, its stop edge (13) extends above, and in the rest position below, the part of the fixed stop edge which produces the asymmetry of the light pattern. <IMAGE>
