Abstract
In a vehicle lamp, a reflecting surface portion 17 is provided on a side wall 13, of the lamp chamber nearest the side of a vehicle body, and the first lens 4B has a refractive step 18 in correspondence to the reflecting surface portion. A light beam, which is emitted from a light bulb 7 and reflected by the reflecting surface portion 17, is refracted when passing through a refractive step 18, thus irradiating obliquely forwardly 45‹ on the side of the center of the vehicle body. Hence the light from the vehicle lamp can be seen in the direction of the arrow D with ease.

a vellicle lamp which is suitably applied, fbr boc, to a signal lamp provided at the rear comer of the vehicle.
A variety of vehicle UW& such as a back-up lamp, a turn signal lamp, a stop lamp, and a plearum lamp am each mde up of a lmq body, a light bidh (or light source) set' in the lamp her of the lamp body. and a front lens which Is c with the front opening and covers the Itrup ch=bm Me light brum emitted frorn the light bulb irrafflates the front Ins.
It h required th the above-described variely of vehicle lo" have dwir own light distribution characteristics e=rding to ftmcdom. For a turn signal lanip ded at the vehicle body corn= is required to have a light distribution characteristic which is such ths4 in order to readily m the lamp km the rear and the side of the vehiclo body, and the front and the side of the YeWcle larnp we irradiated sufficiently.
lle light distrib characc of a le lamp dc on the cmffigundon of the I&W chamber the light bulb, and thc reflecting m Fc>r k the configuration of the Imp chamber afflects c light bution characteristic as follows: If c depth of tlx lamp chamber is large, then the side walls the charnber are obstacles. For instanoe, a tum signal hu w trouble it tee in the direction of side of the voWcle body and obliquely forwu&y on c some side of the vehicle body., however, tC turn sipal Uup; ftm a difficulty the It n=t sullitiently ates obliquely firwardly on the side ofthe c=W of the vehicle body; that i4 its light distribution chamterWc is unsatisfactory. 'not is, in the cast of a tun siVW I=p provided at the vehicle body corner, the lamp body and front lens are shaped substinfay L-shaped in correspondence to the configuration of the vehicle body corner, and the hmp chamber is opened rearwardly and forwardly of vehicle body. Therefore, the tam sipal lamp satisfactorily inadiates rearwwxlly of the vehicle body, si&%w of the vehicle body, and obliquely forwardly of the side of the vehicle body; however, it cannot sathfactorily imidide obliquely fbrwurdly on the side of the center of the veNcle body because the side walls on the side of the center of the vehicle body which finm the lamp chamber are in parallel with the centmI line, In the direction otwidth, of the vehicle body. This tendency is significant a the depth of the hmp chmber increases.
This difficultly may be overcome by increasing the size of the lamp chamber. If this method is employed, the lamp itself is unavoidably bulky, which limits the huWlafion ofthe vehicle bunp.
Accordingly, an object of the invention is to eliminate the abovedescribed difficulties acem"rrying a convention vehicle lamp. More cally, an object of the invention is to provide a vehicle lamp in which, even if the lamp chamber is large in depth, the side walls will not become obles, and which is able to satiorily iu obliquely forwardly. having a dezi=d light distribution chacristic.

in those fi a vehicle laW 1 according to the embodin=t of the invention Is a so-Mlcd "rw combination lamp which includes a plurality of differ lamps as one unit. and is mounted at the comer on the side of a drivees sM of the vehicle.
11w rear c=bination lamp 1 includes a turn signal lamp T, a back-up lamp B, a tall and stop lamp TS, and a refiectorRas ine unit. Tber= combination lwnp 1 fwther includes a l=p body 3 defmed by two upper U=p chamben 2A and 2B, and one lower clamp chamber 2C, and a front lens 4 which sealingly covers the whole surface of the lamp body 3.
The lamp body is made of the synthetic re&in which is colored dark black and is high in heat resistance. 'Me lamp body 3 is fixedly secured through a scaling member 6 to the comer, on the side of the driver's sezt of the vehicle body.
The two upper lznp chambers 2A and 2B am for the turn signal lainp T and the back-up larap B, respectively, and accommodate a turn sigul lamp bulb 7 and a back-up lamp bulb 8, respectively. The lamp chamber 2a for the turn signal lamp T is located outside of the lamp chamber 2B of the backup lainp B. and is large in depth in the ftntto-rear clLrection of the veWcle body, and is provided at the rear comer, on the driver's seat side) of the vehicle body in such a manner that it is opened Wwkwardly and sidewardly of the vehicle. The inner surface of the lamp chamber 2A is defined by side walls 12 and 13 which we located on both side3 of the light bulb 7. More specifically, the side wall 12 is on the side of the center of the vehicle body, and the side wall 13 16 on the side of the side of the vehicle body, and those side wafls 12 and 13 are substantially papendicular to each other. 7be side wall 12 on the side of the center of the vehicle body is substantially in paral.lel with the:front-to-rear direction of the vehicle body. A bulb mounting hole 15 is formed in the conurion connecting portion of the side walls 12 and 13, and the bulb 7 is inserted through the bulb mounting hole. IS into the larnp chamber 2A from behind with dw aid of a socket 16. An aluminum film is formed on the whole inner surface ofthe I amp chamber 2A, to form a reflecting surface 10 which reflects light emitted from the light bulb 7.
In the case where the lamp charnber 2A is large in depth in the front-torear ftection of the %mehicle body, and the side wah 12 is substantially in parallel with the frontto-rear direction of the vehicle body, the side wall 12 intercepts the light beam which advances in a direction'of 45 obliquely forwardly on the side of the center of the vehicle body, which may lower dw visibility in the direction of the arrow D. Especially, in the cue of a turn signal lamp, depending on countries, the obligation is established as a regulation that the turn signal lamp must be seen in the direction of 45' obliquely fbrwardly on the side of the center of the vehicle. In those countries, it is neeemary that the obligation is carried out.
Tbemfore, in the invention, a reflection surface portion 17 is provided at the end of the side wall 13 forming the lamp chamber 2. The rcilecting surface portion 17 causes a ligM beam from the light bulb 7 to cross the optical axis and reflects towards the end (opposite to the side wall 13) of a first lens 4B (described bder) which is a pan of the front lew 4. A reftactive step 18 is provided at the end (opposite to the side wall 13) of the fuV lens 4B. The refractive step IS is to refract the light beam obliquely forwardly 4? which is reflected from the reflecft affam portion 17. The reflecft swfice portion 17, as shown in FIG. 6, comprises: a Ent nflecting surface 17a which reflects light horizontally which is ernitted from the bulb 7; a second reflecting Mnface l7a which reflects the light upwardly which is emitted ficorn the light bulb 7; and a third reflecting surface 17c which reflect light downwardly which is emitted from the bulb 7. The aforementioned refiwive step 19 is larger in wall thielmess then the first law 4B. The inner surfaces of the side wall 12 and the side wall 13 except the reflecting surface portion 17 have vertical-strip0d steps 19, thus forming step-shapW reflect4 surfaces. '17he aforementioned side wall 13 is integral with a tum-about portion 13A which Uirns about the corner of the vehicle body towwds the side of the latter. The turn- about portion 13A is welded to the lens 4.
I'he lamp chamber 2B for thebaci-up lamp B is opened backwardly of the vehicle body, and its irmer surface j3 covered with an aluminum film, thus forming a reflecting surface I I to reflect light emitted from the bulb S. T1w reflecting surface I I has vertical-striped aleps 20; that is, the reflectingsurfaw I I is a stepped reflecting surface.
The lower lamp chamber 2C is a lamp chamber for the tail and stop lamp TS, and accommodates a tail and stop lamp bulb 21, a reflectm 22, and the above-described reflector P.- 'nit lamp chamber 2C is opened backwardly and sidewardly of the vehicle body.
The reflector 22 is made of rynthetic resin high heat tesistiam. The wWle surfaze of the reflector 22 which -confronts with the front Jew 4 is coated with alumin= for instance by vacuum evaporation, 1hus forming a parabolic surface 23. A tam-about portion 22A is integral with the end, on the side of the side of the vehicle body, of the reflector 22. The turn-about portion 22A is turned about the corner of the vehicle body towards the side of the latter. 7be surface of The turn-about portion 22A has verticalstriped steps 24, thus a fonzing stepped reflecting surhm On the other hand, the side (opposite to the tan-about portion 22A) of the reflector 22 is integral with the reflecting portion 22B in succession with the aforementioned parabolic-surface-shaped. MW reflecting portion 22B has vertical-striped steps.25, thus fortning a stepped reflecting surface which ref!" part of the IiSht beam backwardly of the vehicle body which is emitted from the bulb 20.
The fi=t low 4 is fomed, as one unk with a transparent synthetic resin such as acrylic resin and polycarbonate by the conventional multi-color molding method. More specifically, the front lens 4 includes a lens body 4A which covers the front and side surfaces of the lamp body 3, and the fint second and third lenses 4B, 4C and 4D which coven the lamp chambers 2A, 2B and 2C. The lens body 4A is colored red, and its inner surfkce is formed with a number of convex le;ses 31 (cf FIG. 3) which are arranged adjacent to one arwther. The bottom configuration of each of the convex lenses 31 is rhombic. The convex lenses 43 look inclined- grating-shaped stripes when the lamp is viewed from the front.
Mw first, second and third lenses 4B, 4C and 4D are elliptic Which are substantially equal in size to the qvnings of the lamp chambers 2A, 2B and 2C, and the innersurflices thereof have pluralities of long cylindrical lenses 36, 37 and 3 7 which are extended horizontal, respectively. Reme, when the first, second and third lens 413, 4C and 4D are observed from the front of the vehicle lamp, the cylindrical lenses 36,37 and 39 look thin horizontal lines. In addition, the steps 19,20, 24 and 25 formed on the inntr sur&ccs of the lamp chambers 2A and 2B and the reflector 22 look vertical stripes, which makes the vehicle lamp attractive in design.
Ito first lens 4B is colored amber, the -second lens 4C is white transparent, and the third lens 4D is colored red similarly as in the can of the lew body 4A. At the end, on the side of the second lens 4C, of ft first lens 413, the refractive step IS is formed in correspondence to the aforementioned reflecting surfam portion 17. The pan 40 of the inner sw= of the thW los Q wWch correspmda to the reflector R has no cylinMcal lens; tba is, it is flat. The third lens 4D is formed simultaneously when the lens body 4A is molded in such a manner that the fonner 4D is integral with the letter 4A. Thereafter, dw is, after the formation of the third lens 41), the first and second lens 4B and 4C are formed on the lens body 4A.
The aforementioned reflector R is in the form of an elliptic cup made of twiVwent syndwdc resin such as acrylic re6L As shown in FIG. 7, a number of protrusions -such as triangular-pyraniid-shaped protrusions (recurrent reflectors) am formed on the inner swfaces with high density. In this case, a light beam from outside is recurrently reflected; that is, it is reflected ba&6' to the light sourc& Furthermore, the light beams from the bulb 21 are totally reflected. ne reflector R thus designed is fixedly - a - mounted on a sealing plate 45, and locked through the engagement of a protrusion 46 with a locking recess 47. The scaling plate 45 is in the forni of a cup nmde of transparent synthetic resin such as acrylic resinThe sealing jplwe 45 is engaged with a rib 48 protruded from the inner su-.&cc of the third k= 4D, and is swured to the nib 49 by uhrLwnic welding.
in the turn sigaal I=p T of the combination larnp I thus designed, the side wall 13, on the side of the side of the vehicle body, of the lamp chamber 2A has the reflectIng gwface portion 17, and the first 1=3 Q has the refractivt sup I& in correspondence to the reflecting surface portion 17, so that the turn signal lamp T sati sfictorily imdiates in the direction of 400 obliquely forwardly on the side of the center the vehicle body. That is, the light beam which is emitted from the bulb 7 and reflected by the reflecting surface portion 17 is refracte d who pawing through the refractive step 18, thus irmdiating in the direction of 45' on the side of the center of the vehicle body.
Therefte, even if the lamp chamber 2A is large in depth in the front-torear direction of the vehicle body, the side waft 12 on the side of the center the vehicle body vAll not be an obstacle; fluit is, the turn signal lamp is high in light distribution characteristic, and can be readily scen obliquely ibrwardly on the side of the center of the vehicle body (in the direction of the arrow D).
IU reflecting sur&cc portion 17 is made up of the first reflecting surface 17a which rellects a light bearn horizontally which is emitted from the bulb 7, the second reflecting surface 17b which reflects a light beam upwardly which is emitted from the bulb 7, and the third reflectij surface 17c which refiects a light beam downwardly which is emimd from the bulb 7. Hence, the light beam passing through die refractive step 18 is large in vertical diffusion angle; that is, it irradiates a large region in the direction of height.
In the above-described embodiment, the technical concept of the invention is applied to the combination lamp; however, the invention is not limited 0 or thereby. Iliat is, the technical concept of the invention may be applied to a vehicle lamp which is a single lamp mounted on a vehicle body.
The vehicle Imp of the invention has the fbilowing effects or merits:
Even if the vehicle Imp is hul;e in depth, the side walls of the lamp chamber will never become obstacles,'and the lamp irradiates sufficiently obliquely forwardly with the aid of the reflecting surface portion and the refractive step. Hence, according to the invention, a vehicle lamp can be provided which meets the regulation provided for a vehicle lamp. Especially, the vehicle lamp of the invention is suitable as a vehicle lamp installed at the oorner of the vehicle body.
Furthermore, the reflecting c portion comphses: the fixst reflecting surfhce which Teflects a light beam horizontally which is emitted from the light source; the second refiecting mrfwe which reflects a light beam upwardly which is emitted from the light scurce; and the third reflecting source which reflects a light beam downwardly which is =itted from the light source. Hence, the vehicle lamp is large in diftsion angle.
