Vehicle lamp having a light source unit with chip laterally spaced from optical axis of optical unit and a reflector central axis tilted with respect to the optical axis

A vehicle lamp to form at least one beam pattern using a plurality of lamp modules, wherein at least one of the plurality of lamp modules comprises:

• a light source unit that generates light;
• an optical unit that transmits the light generated by the light source unit therethrough;
• and
• a reflection unit that reflects the light generated by the light source unit to be incident upon the optical unit,
• wherein the light source unit includes a light source chip, which is spaced apart laterally from an optical axis of the optical unit,
• wherein a central axis of the reflection unit is tilted at a predetermined angle with respect to the optical axis of the optical unit to allow the light generated by the light source chip to proceed toward the optical unit,
• wherein the optical unit includes lateral surfaces formed on both lateral sides thereof between a light-incident surface and a light-emitting surface of the optical unit, with edges dividing the light-emitting surface and the lateral surfaces, and
• wherein at least one optical pattern is formed on at least parts of the lateral surfaces for diffusing or scattering the light.
