Description

本発明は、目盛が形成された表示板のエッジ部から照明光を表示板内に導入するエッジライト照明を採用した車両用計器に関するものである。特に、表示板の裏面に窪みからなる立体表示部を形成して、表示板の表記部が、立体的に視認される車両用計器に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a vehicular instrument that employs edge light illumination that introduces illumination light into a display panel from an edge portion of the display panel on which a scale is formed. In particular, the present invention relates to a vehicular instrument in which a three-dimensional display portion formed of a depression is formed on the back surface of the display plate and the display portion of the display plate is visually recognized in three dimensions.

従来、特許文献１に記載の車両用計器が知られている。図１２は、特許文献１の車両用計器を示す正面図、図１３は、図１２の矢印Ｆ１３−Ｆ１３線に沿う一部断面図である。この図１２に示した車両用計器は、指針４が表示板１の裏側を回転し、表示板１（目盛ダイヤルとも呼ばれる）の厚み方向に対して、直角方向である矢印Ｙ１３方向（図１３）から照明光が表示板１内に導入される。このような照明は、エッジライト照明と呼ばれる。   Conventionally, the vehicle instrument of patent document 1 is known. 12 is a front view showing the vehicle instrument of Patent Document 1, and FIG. 13 is a partial cross-sectional view taken along the arrow F13-F13 in FIG. In the vehicle instrument shown in FIG. 12, the pointer 4 rotates on the back side of the display board 1, and the arrow Y13 direction (FIG. 13) is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the display board 1 (also called scale dial). Illumination light is introduced into the display panel 1. Such illumination is called edge light illumination.

図１２の表示板１の端面に対して、一列に、複数の発光ダイオード８（以下、ＬＥＤ８とも言う）が並べられている。そして、複数のＬＥＤ８から出た照明光は、メータケースの内部表面で反射して、アクリル樹脂製の表示板１内に導光される。また、指針４は、ステップモータ等のムーブメント２０に駆動されて、表示板１の裏面に印刷された表記部５を指し示す。   A plurality of light emitting diodes 8 (hereinafter also referred to as LEDs 8) are arranged in a row with respect to the end face of the display panel 1 of FIG. The illumination light emitted from the plurality of LEDs 8 is reflected by the inner surface of the meter case and guided into the display panel 1 made of acrylic resin. The pointer 4 is driven by a movement 20 such as a step motor, and points to the notation 5 printed on the back surface of the display panel 1.

特開２０１０−８５１１３号公報JP 2010-85113 A

このような表示板１に印刷された表記部５は、そのままでは立体的に見えない。ところが、近年、車両用計器の立体的な見栄えを演出したいという要望、及び昼夜の見栄えを変化させたいという要望がある。上記特許文献１においては、表示板１の裏面に表記部５、目盛、及び単位からなる指標を印刷し、表示板１のエッジ部３から照明光を表示板１内に導入していたが、裏面に指標を印刷するため、どうしても表示板１の裏面は全体として平面形状にならざるをえない。   The notation part 5 printed on such a display board 1 cannot be seen three-dimensionally as it is. However, in recent years, there is a demand for producing a three-dimensional appearance of a vehicle instrument and a demand for changing the appearance of day and night. In the above-mentioned Patent Document 1, an indicator consisting of the notation portion 5, the scale, and the unit is printed on the back surface of the display plate 1, and illumination light is introduced into the display plate 1 from the edge portion 3 of the display plate 1. Since the index is printed on the back surface, the back surface of the display board 1 must be flat as a whole.

指標を立体的に見せるためには、指標のデザインで陰影を描いて立体的に見えるように工夫するいわゆる陰影法に基づく方法、及び立体的部品を表示板上に追加して、指標を立体的に見せる方法が考えられた。立体的部品を表示板上に追加して、指標を立体的に見せる方法では、コストアップして好ましくない。そこで、表記部５をなす特に数字部の形状に影部分を描いて、イラスト的に立体化する方法が考えられた。この方法では、昼の見栄えには有効であるが、夜間照明時には効果が少ない。   In order to make the indicator appear three-dimensional, a method based on the so-called shading method, which is designed to make the indicator appear three-dimensional by shading, and a three-dimensional component on the display board, the indicator is made three-dimensional. The method to show to was thought. The method of adding a three-dimensional component on the display board to make the index appear three-dimensional is not preferable because of an increase in cost. Therefore, a method of drawing a shadow portion on the shape of the notation portion 5, particularly the shape of the number portion, and making it three-dimensional in illustration was considered. This method is effective for the appearance of daytime, but is less effective at night illumination.

また、表示板１自体を成型するときに、表記部５等の指標を盛り上げて成型し、立体的に見えるようにすることが考えられる。しかし、表示板１の一部を立体的に盛り上げて成型することは、裏面に印刷された指標に、成型時の歪の影響が出たり、成型材料のひけの影響で、不自然な筋が表示板１に形成されたりするため、好ましくなかった。更に、仮に、問題なく立体的に見えたとしても、昼と夜とで見栄えを変えたいという要求を満たすことができない。   Further, when the display board 1 itself is molded, it is conceivable that the index of the notation portion 5 and the like is raised and molded so as to make it appear three-dimensional. However, when a part of the display panel 1 is three-dimensionally raised and molded, the index printed on the back surface is affected by distortion during molding, or by the influence of sink marks on the molding material. Since it was formed in the display board 1, it was not preferable. Furthermore, even if it looks three-dimensional without any problems, it is not possible to satisfy the demand for changing the appearance between day and night.

本発明は、このような従来の技術に存在する問題点に着目してなされたものであり、その目的は、昼と夜とで見栄えを変えることができると共に、表示板に印刷された表記部を含む指標分が、立体的に見える車両用計器を提供することにある。   The present invention has been made paying attention to such problems existing in the prior art, and its purpose is to change the appearance between day and night, and the notation printed on the display board. It is to provide an instrument for a vehicle in which an index portion including a symbol looks three-dimensional.

従来技術として列挙された特許文献の記載内容は、この明細書に記載された技術的要素の説明として、参照によって導入ないし援用することができる。   Descriptions of patent documents listed as prior art can be introduced or incorporated by reference as explanations of technical elements described in this specification.

本発明は上記目的を達成するために、下記の技術的手段を採用する。すなわち、請求項１に記載の発明では、表示板の側方から表示板内に照明光を導入するエッジライト照明式の車両用計器であって、表示板の裏側に設けられ、指標となる表記部と、表記部に並んで表示板の裏側に設けられ、表記部を立体的に表示する立体表示部を有し、立体表示部は、表示板の裏面側から表面側に窪み、表示板の平面方向に対して傾斜した傾斜面を持った断面Ｖ字状の窪みから成り、表示板のエッジ部を通して導入される照明光が傾斜面と表記部とにより反射して表示板の表面側に向かうことを特徴としている。   In order to achieve the above object, the present invention employs the following technical means. That is, according to the first aspect of the present invention, there is provided an edge light illumination type vehicle instrument for introducing illumination light into the display board from the side of the display board, which is provided on the back side of the display board and serves as an index. And a three-dimensional display unit that is provided on the back side of the display board side by side with the display part and displays the display part in three dimensions. The three-dimensional display part is recessed from the back side to the front side of the display board, It consists of a V-shaped depression having an inclined surface inclined with respect to the plane direction, and the illumination light introduced through the edge portion of the display plate is reflected by the inclined surface and the notation portion toward the surface side of the display plate. It is characterized by that.

この発明によれば、立体表示部は、表示板の裏面側から表面側に窪み、表示板の平面方向に対して傾斜した傾斜面を持った断面Ｖ字状の窪みから成り、表示板のエッジ部を通して導入される照明光が傾斜面と表記部とにより反射して表示板の表面側に向かうから、立体表示部によって表記部が立体的に視認されると共に、表示板のエッジ部を経由して表示板の内部に導光された照明光が、傾斜面に反射して、立体表示部が夜間において光って視認される。また、エッジライト照明がなされないときは、立体表示部が外来光を飛散させる。これにより、昼と夜とで見栄えを変えることができると共に、表示板に印刷された表記部が立体的に見える車両用計器を提供することができる。   According to this invention, the three-dimensional display unit is formed of a depression having a V-shaped cross section having a depression that is recessed from the rear surface side to the front surface side of the display plate and that is inclined with respect to the planar direction of the display plate. Since the illumination light introduced through the part is reflected by the inclined surface and the notation part and is directed to the surface side of the display board, the notation part is visually recognized by the three-dimensional display part and passes through the edge part of the display board. The illumination light guided to the inside of the display panel is reflected on the inclined surface, and the stereoscopic display unit is illuminated and viewed at night. In addition, when edge light illumination is not performed, the stereoscopic display unit scatters extraneous light. Thereby, while being able to change appearance by day and night, the meter for vehicles which can see the notation part printed on the display board in three dimensions can be provided.

請求項２に記載の発明では、立体表示部は、表示板に仮想的に光が照射してくる側に対して、平面方向に表記部を挟んで反対側の表記部の影に相当する位置に形成されていることを特徴としている。この発明によれば、立体表示部は、仮想的に光が照射してくる側に対して、平面方向に表記部を挟んで反対側の表記部の影に相当する位置に形成されているから、立体表示部により表記部が立体的に見え易い。   In the invention according to claim 2, the stereoscopic display unit is a position corresponding to the shadow of the notation part on the opposite side across the notation part in the plane direction with respect to the side on which the light is virtually irradiated to the display board. It is characterized by being formed. According to the present invention, the stereoscopic display portion is formed at a position corresponding to the shadow of the opposite notation portion with the notation portion sandwiched in the plane direction with respect to the side on which the light is virtually irradiated. The three-dimensional display part makes it easy to see the notation part three-dimensionally.

請求項３に記載の発明では、平面方向の表記部を挟んで前記立体表示部とは反対側に、前記表記部の輪郭を示す輪郭線が形成されていることを特徴としている。この発明によれば、平面方向の前記表記部を挟んで前記立体表示部とは反対側に、前記表記部の輪郭を示す輪郭線が形成されているから、表記部の輪郭が輪郭線と立体表示部とによって、一層明確になり、表記部が判読し易くなる。   The invention according to claim 3 is characterized in that a contour line indicating the contour of the notation portion is formed on the opposite side of the stereoscopic display portion across the notation portion in the plane direction. According to the present invention, the contour line indicating the contour of the notation portion is formed on the opposite side of the stereoscopic display portion across the notation portion in the planar direction. The display part makes it clearer and makes the notation part easier to read.

請求項４に記載の発明では、前記表記部は、着色されている中心着色部と、前記中心着色部の周囲を取り囲み、かつ前記中心着色部よりも前記照明光の反射率が高い色調の周囲着色部とからなり、前記立体表示部は、前記周囲着色部の周囲の少なくとも一部に形成されていることを特徴としている。   According to a fourth aspect of the present invention, the notation portion surrounds the colored central coloring portion and the central coloring portion, and has a color tone that has a higher reflectance of the illumination light than the central coloring portion. It is characterized by comprising a colored portion, and the three-dimensional display portion is formed on at least a part of the periphery of the peripheral colored portion.

この発明によれば、表記部は、中心着色部と、この中心着色部の周囲を取り囲む周囲着色部からなり、立体表示部は、周囲着色部の周囲の少なくとも一部に形成されているから、周囲着色部が台に見え、中心着色部が、台の上に乗っているように見えるため、一層、表記部が立体的に見える。   According to this invention, the notation portion is composed of a center coloring portion and a surrounding coloring portion surrounding the periphery of the center coloring portion, and the stereoscopic display portion is formed on at least a part of the periphery of the surrounding coloring portion. Since the surrounding coloring portion looks like a stand and the central coloring portion seems to be on the stand, the notation portion looks three-dimensional.

請求項５に記載の発明では、立体表示部をなす窪みの平面方向の最大幅が、中心着色部の平面方向の最大幅の２５％から７５％の幅を有することを特徴としている。この発明によれば、立体表示部は溝状の窪みからなり、溝の最大幅が中心着色部の最大幅の少なくとも２５％から７５％の幅を有するから、立体表示部により充分に立体的に見せ、かつ傾斜面が充分に反射して、高級感のある表記部の指標としての表示が可能となる。   The invention according to claim 5 is characterized in that the maximum width in the planar direction of the recess forming the three-dimensional display portion is 25% to 75% of the maximum width in the planar direction of the central coloring portion. According to the present invention, the three-dimensional display portion is formed of a groove-shaped depression, and the maximum width of the groove has a width of at least 25% to 75% of the maximum width of the central coloring portion. The inclined surface is sufficiently reflected and can be displayed as an index for a high-quality notation.

請求項６に記載の発明では、立体表示部の傾斜面は、シボ加工されていることを特徴としている。この発明によれば、傾斜面にシボ加工されているから、傾斜面全体が輝いて立体的に表記部を視認させることができる。   The invention according to claim 6 is characterized in that the inclined surface of the three-dimensional display portion is textured. According to this invention, since the embossed surface is formed on the inclined surface, the entire inclined surface can be shined and the notation portion can be visually recognized in three dimensions.

請求項７に記載の発明では、立体表示部の傾斜面が表示板の裏面よりも表面粗さが細かい鏡面に形成されていることを特徴としている。この発明によれば、傾斜面に鏡面が形成されているから、傾斜面の輝きが強調され、傾斜面が強く輝いて立体的に表記部を視認させることができる。   The invention according to claim 7 is characterized in that the inclined surface of the three-dimensional display unit is formed in a mirror surface having a finer surface roughness than the back surface of the display plate. According to this invention, since the mirror surface is formed on the inclined surface, the brightness of the inclined surface is emphasized, and the inclined surface is strongly shined so that the notation portion can be visually recognized in three dimensions.

請求項８に記載の発明では、立体表示部が形成された表示板の平面方向に対する傾斜面の傾斜角は、４０度から５０度の範囲に形成されていることを特徴としている。この発明によれば、平面方向に対する傾斜面の傾斜角は、４０度から５０度の範囲に形成されているから、照明光が傾斜面で良好に反射して輝きが増し、見栄えを良くすることができる。   The invention according to claim 8 is characterized in that the inclination angle of the inclined surface with respect to the planar direction of the display panel on which the three-dimensional display portion is formed is in the range of 40 degrees to 50 degrees. According to the present invention, since the inclination angle of the inclined surface with respect to the plane direction is formed in the range of 40 degrees to 50 degrees, the illumination light is favorably reflected on the inclined surface to increase the brightness and improve the appearance. Can do.

具体的には、表示板１の裏には、「０」、「２０」、「４０」から「１８０」、「２００」までの、１１箇所の表記部５が形成されている。この表記部５には、立体的に見えるよう影に相当する位置に形成された立体表示部が設けられている。その立体表示部の形状に合わせて、表示板１のアクリル樹脂の裏面にＶ字状の溝または窪みからなる後述するＶ字カット５ｂ１（図３）が形成されている。   Specifically, eleven notation parts 5 from “0”, “20”, “40” to “180”, “200” are formed on the back of the display board 1. The notation unit 5 is provided with a three-dimensional display unit formed at a position corresponding to a shadow so that it can be seen three-dimensionally. A V-shaped cut 5b1 (FIG. 3), which will be described later, is formed on the back surface of the acrylic resin of the display panel 1 and is formed of a V-shaped groove or depression according to the shape of the three-dimensional display portion.

図２は、図１に図示された表記部５のうち、特に、「１８０」、「２００」部分の拡大図である。「１８０」、「２００」といった表記部５は、表示板１の裏側に印刷され、数字自体を表す数字表記部５ａを有する。また、この数字表記部５ａの右側に略隣接して表記部５を立体的に見せる立体表示部５ｂを有している。この立体表示部５ｂは、表示板１の裏面側から表面側に向かう窪みとして形成されたＶ字カット５ｂ１（図３）から成る。   FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of “180” and “200” in particular, of the notation 5 shown in FIG. The notation parts 5 such as “180” and “200” are printed on the back side of the display board 1 and have a number notation part 5a representing the number itself. Moreover, it has the three-dimensional display part 5b which shows the description part 5 in three dimensions substantially adjacent to the right side of this number description part 5a. This three-dimensional display part 5b consists of the V-shaped cut 5b1 (FIG. 3) formed as a hollow which goes from the back surface side of the display board 1 to the surface side.

なお、表示板１の表側から見れば、立体表示部５ｂであり、表示板１の裏側から見れば、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１であり、立体表示部５ｂとＶ字カット５ｂ１とは同じものであるが、便宜上、立体表示部というときには５ｂの符号を付し、Ｖ字カットというときには５ｂ１の符号を付して説明する。   The three-dimensional display 5b is seen from the front side of the display board 1, and the V-shaped cut 5b1 is seen from the back side of the display board 1. The three-dimensional display 5b and the V-shaped cut 5b1 are the same. For the sake of convenience, the description will be given with the reference numeral 5b when referring to the stereoscopic display unit and with the reference numeral 5b1 when referring to the V-shaped cut.

図３は、表示板１に導光する照明手段を構成するＬＥＤ８の配置を模式的に示す図２のＦ３−Ｆ３線に沿う一部断面斜視図である。表示板１のエッジ部３から矢印Ｙ３等で示された照明光を表示板１の内部に導光し、この導光された照明光が、表示板１の裏面の表記部５等を印刷した印刷部１ａ、及びＶ字カット５ｂ１で反射する。   3 is a partial cross-sectional perspective view taken along line F3-F3 of FIG. 2 schematically showing the arrangement of the LEDs 8 constituting the illumination means for guiding light to the display panel 1. As shown in FIG. Illumination light indicated by an arrow Y3 or the like is guided from the edge portion 3 of the display board 1 to the inside of the display board 1, and the guided illumination light prints the notation part 5 or the like on the back surface of the display board 1. Reflected by the printing unit 1a and the V-shaped cut 5b1.

図３は、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１での反射のみを示している。反射された照明光は、表示板１の表側から出て、車両の運転者の目に入ることにより、表記部５を立体的に視認可能としている。なお、図３において、表記部５は印刷部１ａ内に設けられているため、実際には、表記部5は図３のようには見えないが、便宜上、対応関係を示すように模式的に図示している。   FIG. 3 shows only the reflection at the V-shaped cut 5b1. The reflected illumination light exits from the front side of the display board 1 and enters the eyes of the driver of the vehicle, so that the notation portion 5 can be viewed in three dimensions. In FIG. 3, since the notation unit 5 is provided in the printing unit 1a, the notation unit 5 does not actually appear as shown in FIG. It is shown.

Ｖ字カット５ｂ１は、表示板１の表側からは立体表示部５ｂとして見え、立体感を表記部５に持たせている。Ｖ字カット５ｂ１は、表示板１の裏側に形成され、後述する傾斜面１０（図３、図５）を有する窪みである。この第１実施形態においては、傾斜面１０は、印刷処理がされていないが、鏡面に仕上げることで夜間には部分的にキラっと発光し、指標が立体的に見え、非常に高級感も演出できる。   The V-shaped cut 5b1 is seen from the front side of the display board 1 as a three-dimensional display unit 5b, and gives the notation unit 5 a three-dimensional effect. The V-shaped cut 5b1 is a recess formed on the back side of the display panel 1 and having an inclined surface 10 (FIGS. 3 and 5) described later. In this first embodiment, the inclined surface 10 is not subjected to printing processing, but by finishing it into a mirror surface, it partially emits light at night, and the indicator looks three-dimensional, and also has a very high-class feeling. Can produce.

なお、昼間のエッジライト照明がなされていないときは、外来光がＶ字カット５ｂ１に当たっても、当たる方向によっては戻ってこないため、立体表示部５ｂは影として見える。夜間は、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１が、エッジライト照明の照明光を反射するため昼と夜とで見栄えを変えることができる、
図４は、図１の表示板１上の表記部「２０」の寸法関係を説明する正面図である。図５は、図４に示したＦ５−Ｆ５線に沿う断面を示し、特にＶ字カット５ｂ１の寸法関係を説明する模式断面図である。また、図６は表記部２０を成型する成型金型１２の表面形状を模式的に示す斜視図である。なお、図５においては、断面を示すハッチングは省略している。 Note that when the daytime edge light illumination is not performed, even if extraneous light hits the V-shaped cut 5b1, it does not return depending on the direction in which it hits, so the stereoscopic display unit 5b appears as a shadow. At night, the V-shaped cut 5b1 reflects the illumination light of the edge light illumination, so the appearance can be changed between day and night.
FIG. 4 is a front view for explaining the dimensional relationship of the notation “20” on the display board 1 of FIG. 1. FIG. 5 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing a cross section taken along line F5-F5 shown in FIG. 4, and particularly explaining the dimensional relationship of the V-shaped cut 5b1. FIG. 6 is a perspective view schematically showing the surface shape of the molding die 12 for molding the notation portion 20. In FIG. 5, hatching indicating a cross section is omitted.

図４において、数字表記部５ａは、表示板１の内部に導光された照明光が反射しにくい色調で着色された中心着色部５ａ１を有する。また、該中心着色部５ａ１の周囲を取り囲み中心着色部５ａ１よりも照明光が反射し易い、つまり、反射率の高い色調の周囲着色部５ａ２を有する。   In FIG. 4, the numeral notation portion 5 a includes a center coloring portion 5 a 1 that is colored in a color tone that is difficult to reflect the illumination light guided to the inside of the display plate 1. Further, it has a surrounding colored portion 5a2 that surrounds the central colored portion 5a1 and that reflects the illumination light more easily than the central colored portion 5a1, that is, a color tone having a high reflectance.

そして、立体表示部５ｂは、周囲着色部５ａ２の周囲の少なくとも一部に形成されている。また、立体表示部５ｂは、運転者が表示板１を見た左側（図１の下側）から仮想的に進入する光の方向である矢印Ｙ４０にて示す仮想光が表記部５に照射される側とは反対側（影相当部位側）に形成されている。更に、周囲着色部５ａ２の周囲の立体表示部５ｂが存在しない図４左側の表記部５の輪郭部分に、表記部５の輪郭を示す輪郭線５ｃが形成されている。また、図３において、ＬＥＤ８は、プリント基板９の上に実装されている。ＬＥＤ８からの照明光は、メータケース６の内壁で反射して、表示板１の中にエッジ部３から導入される。   And the three-dimensional display part 5b is formed in at least one part of the circumference | surroundings of the surrounding coloring part 5a2. The stereoscopic display unit 5b irradiates the notation unit 5 with virtual light indicated by an arrow Y40 that is a direction of light that virtually enters from the left side (the lower side in FIG. 1) of the driver viewing the display board 1. It is formed on the opposite side (shadow equivalent site side) from the side to be covered. Further, a contour line 5c indicating the contour of the notation portion 5 is formed at the contour portion of the notation portion 5 on the left side of FIG. 4 where the three-dimensional display portion 5b around the surrounding coloring portion 5a2 does not exist. In FIG. 3, the LED 8 is mounted on the printed circuit board 9. Illumination light from the LED 8 is reflected from the inner wall of the meter case 6 and introduced into the display panel 1 from the edge portion 3.

図４及び図５のＢは、立体表示部５ｂともなるＶ字カット５ｂ１の最大幅であり、溝の最大幅に相当する。なお、この溝は、断面が三角形状のトンネル状である。また、図４のＣは、表記部５ａの構成要素である中心着色部５ａ１の最大幅である。Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の最大幅Ｂは、中心着色部５ａ１の最大幅Ｃの２５％から７５％、好ましくは４０％から６０％の範囲内に選定されている。   B in FIGS. 4 and 5 is the maximum width of the V-shaped cut 5b1 that also serves as the stereoscopic display portion 5b, and corresponds to the maximum width of the groove. The groove has a tunnel shape with a triangular cross section. Further, C in FIG. 4 is the maximum width of the center coloring portion 5a1 which is a constituent element of the notation portion 5a. The maximum width B of the V-shaped cut 5b1 is selected within the range of 25% to 75%, preferably 40% to 60%, of the maximum width C of the center coloring portion 5a1.

次に、図４の文字「０」、あるいは、図１の表記部５内の文字のうち「４」と「６」と「８」と「９」のように、内部に中心着色部５ａ１によって閉じられた内周部５ｄ（図４）を有する数字は、中心着色部５ａ１の内周部５ｄ側に沿って形成され中心着色部５ａ１よりも照明光の反射率が高い色調の内周側周囲着色部５ａ２１を有する。   Next, the character “0” in FIG. 4 or the characters “4”, “6”, “8”, and “9” among the characters in the notation portion 5 in FIG. The numbers having the closed inner peripheral portion 5d (FIG. 4) are formed around the inner peripheral portion 5d side of the center coloring portion 5a1 and have a color tone with a higher reflectance of the illumination light than the central coloring portion 5a1. It has a colored portion 5a21.

そして、内周側周囲着色部５ａ２１の内周部５ｄ側に、内周側立体表示部５ｂ２が形成されている。但し、この内周側立体表示部５ｂ２は、単なるデザイン上の陰影であり、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１相当の窪みは形成されていない。また、中心着色部５ａ１の外周に沿って形成され中心着色部５ａ１よりも照明光の反射率が高い色調の外周側周囲着色部５ａ２２を有する。   And the inner peripheral side three-dimensional display part 5b2 is formed in the inner peripheral part 5d side of the inner peripheral side surrounding coloring part 5a21. However, this inner peripheral side three-dimensional display portion 5b2 is merely a shade on design, and no depression corresponding to the V-shaped cut 5b1 is formed. Moreover, it has the outer periphery side surrounding coloring part 5a22 of the color tone which is formed along the outer periphery of the center coloring part 5a1 and has a higher reflectance of illumination light than the center coloring part 5a1.

図５のように、表示板１内部には、矢印Ｙ５０にて代表するエッジライト照明による照明光が侵入している。表示板１の裏面の印刷部１ａが設けられた平面部の平面方向に対して、θ１＝４４度の傾斜面１０を対向して持った断面形状が二等辺三角形のＶ字カット５ｂ１が形成されている。   As shown in FIG. 5, illumination light from edge light illumination represented by an arrow Y50 enters the display panel 1. A V-shaped cut 5b1 having an isosceles triangle cross-section with an inclined surface 10 of θ1 = 44 degrees opposed to the plane direction of the plane portion provided with the printing portion 1a on the back surface of the display board 1 is formed. ing.

傾斜面１０は、印刷部１ａが設けられた平面部から表示板１の表側に向かう方向に傾斜している。よって、傾斜面１０が、照明光に対して反射面として作用し、矢印Ｙ５１等のように表示板１の表側から反射光が出て、運転者の目に入る。なお、この第１実施形態では、表示板１の厚さＴｐは、３〜４ｍｍ、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の深さＤは、０．３ｍｍである。   The inclined surface 10 is inclined in a direction toward the front side of the display panel 1 from the flat surface where the printing unit 1a is provided. Therefore, the inclined surface 10 acts as a reflecting surface with respect to the illumination light, and the reflected light comes out from the front side of the display board 1 as indicated by an arrow Y51 and enters the driver's eyes. In the first embodiment, the thickness Tp of the display panel 1 is 3 to 4 mm, and the depth D of the V-shaped cut 5b1 is 0.3 mm.

このＶ字カット５ｂ１の深さＤは、表示板１の表面の、不規則な意図しない模様の原因となる表示板１成形時のひけ、またはウエルドラインの発生防止を考慮して、表示板１の板厚Ｔｐ（Ｔｐ＝３ｍｍ〜４ｍｍ）の３０％程度までに抑えることが好ましい。従って、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の深さＤは、０．３ｍｍから１．０ｍｍの範囲としている。Ｔｊは、表示板１の窪み５ｂ１の直上の板厚である。   The depth D of the V-shaped cut 5b1 takes into account the prevention of sink marks or the occurrence of weld lines when forming the display panel 1 that causes irregular and unintended patterns on the surface of the display panel 1. It is preferable to suppress it to about 30% of the plate thickness Tp (Tp = 3 mm to 4 mm). Therefore, the depth D of the V-shaped cut 5b1 is in the range of 0.3 mm to 1.0 mm. Tj is a plate thickness directly above the dent 5b1 of the display panel 1.

また、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の幅Ｂは０．６２ｍｍであり、その半分は０．３１ｍｍであるから、この場合の傾斜角をθ１とした場合、Ｔａｎθ１＝０．３／０．３１となり、傾斜角θ１は、４４度となる。従って、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１のカット角θ２は、９２度（１８０−２×４４＝９２）となる。なお、照明光が良好に反射して、キラっと輝くために傾斜角θ１は、４０度から５０度の範囲が好ましい。なお、後述するように、傾斜面１０にシボを施す場合は、この傾斜角θ１は、３０度から６０度の範囲内が好ましい。   Further, since the width B of the V-shaped cut 5b1 is 0.62 mm and half thereof is 0.31 mm, if the inclination angle in this case is θ1, Tanθ1 = 0.3 / 0.31, and the inclination angle θ1 is 44 degrees. Therefore, the cut angle θ2 of the V-shaped cut 5b1 is 92 degrees (180−2 × 44 = 92). It should be noted that the tilt angle θ1 is preferably in the range of 40 degrees to 50 degrees so that the illumination light is reflected well and shines brightly. As will be described later, when the inclined surface 10 is textured, the inclination angle θ1 is preferably in the range of 30 degrees to 60 degrees.

図６は、表示板１を射出成型するために使用する金型１２の表面の、表記部５の「２０」に対応する部分を、模式的に示す斜視図である。説明上の都合で、仮想的に表記部５の「２０」が、金型１２の表面に描かれている。この表記部５の「２０」における立体表示部５ｂをなすＶ字カット５ｂ１に対応する部分が、山脈状に***した***部１３ａ、１３ｂ、１３ｃとして形成されている。この***部１３ａ、１３ｂ、１３ｃの高さＨ１３が、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の深さＤ＝０．３ｍｍ（図５）に対応している。また、***部１３ａ、１３ｂ、１３ｃの断面の三角形状の山の先端角θ１３（図６）は、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１のカット角θ２（図５）に対応している。   FIG. 6 is a perspective view schematically showing a portion corresponding to “20” of the notation portion 5 on the surface of the mold 12 used for injection molding the display plate 1. For convenience of explanation, “20” of the notation portion 5 is virtually drawn on the surface of the mold 12. The portions corresponding to the V-shaped cut 5b1 forming the three-dimensional display portion 5b in “20” of the notation portion 5 are formed as raised portions 13a, 13b, and 13c raised in a mountain range. The height H13 of the raised portions 13a, 13b, and 13c corresponds to the depth D = 0.3 mm (FIG. 5) of the V-shaped cut 5b1. Further, the tip angle θ13 (FIG. 6) of the triangular peak in the cross section of the raised portions 13a, 13b, and 13c corresponds to the cut angle θ2 (FIG. 5) of the V-shaped cut 5b1.

次に、第１実施形態の作用効果について説明する。表示板１の裏側の印刷部１ａ（図５）に印刷され、数字自体を表す数字表記部５ａ（図４）を有する表記部５と、該表記部５を立体的に見せる立体表示部５ｂとを有する。また、立体表示部５ｂは、表示板１の裏面側から表面側に窪んだＶ字カット５ｂ１からなる。   Next, the function and effect of the first embodiment will be described. A notation unit 5 having a number notation part 5a (FIG. 4) printed on the printing part 1a (FIG. 5) on the back side of the display board 1 and representing the number itself, and a three-dimensional display part 5b for showing the notation part 5 in three dimensions Have The three-dimensional display unit 5b includes a V-shaped cut 5b1 that is recessed from the rear surface side to the front surface side of the display plate 1.

立体表示部５ｂによって、表記部５が立体的に視認されると共に、照明手段をなすＬＥＤ８によって表示板１のエッジ部３から表示板１の内部に導光された照明光がＶ字カット５ｂ１の傾斜面１０に反射して、立体表示部５ｂの一部が夜間において光って視認される。従って、昼と夜とで見栄えを変えることができると共に、表示板１に印刷された表記部５を含む指標が、立体的に見える車両用計器を提供することができる。   The display unit 5 is viewed three-dimensionally by the three-dimensional display unit 5b, and the illumination light guided from the edge portion 3 of the display plate 1 to the inside of the display plate 1 by the LED 8 serving as the illumination means is a V-shaped cut 5b1. Reflected by the inclined surface 10, a part of the three-dimensional display unit 5 b shines and is visually recognized at night. Therefore, the appearance can be changed between day and night, and a vehicle instrument can be provided in which the indicator including the notation portion 5 printed on the display board 1 looks three-dimensional.

また、図４のように、数字表記部５ａは、中心着色部５ａ１と、周囲着色部５ａ２とからなり、立体表示部５ｂは、周囲着色部５ａ２の周囲の少なくとも一部に形成されているから、周囲着色部５ａ２が台に見える。従って、中心着色部５ａ１が、台の上に乗っているように見えるため、一層、表記部５が立体的に見える。   Further, as shown in FIG. 4, the numeral notation portion 5a includes a center coloring portion 5a1 and a surrounding coloring portion 5a2, and the three-dimensional display portion 5b is formed on at least a part of the periphery of the surrounding coloring portion 5a2. The surrounding colored portion 5a2 can be seen on the table. Therefore, since the center coloring portion 5a1 appears to be on the table, the notation portion 5 looks three-dimensional.

また、立体表示部５ｂは、表示板１の左側から進入する仮想光が、表記部５に照射される側とは反対側に形成されているから、立体表示部５ｂにより表記部５が立体的に見える。また、周囲着色部５ａ２の周囲の立体表示部５ｂが存在しない表記部５の輪郭部分に、表記部５の輪郭を示す輪郭線５ｃが形成されているから、表記部５の輪郭が輪郭線５ｃと立体表示部５ｂとによって明確になり、表記部５が判読し易くなる。   In addition, since the stereoscopic display unit 5b is formed on the side opposite to the side on which the virtual light entering from the left side of the display panel 1 is irradiated, the display unit 5 is stereoscopically displayed by the stereoscopic display unit 5b. Looks like. Moreover, since the outline 5c which shows the outline of the notation part 5 is formed in the outline part of the notation part 5 in which the 3D display part 5b around the surrounding coloring part 5a2 does not exist, the outline of the notation part 5 becomes the outline 5c. And the three-dimensional display part 5b, and the notation part 5 is easy to read.

また、表記部５の内部に中心着色部５ａ１によって閉じられた内周部５ｄを有する「０」、「４」、「６」、「８」、「９」の文字は、中心着色部５ａ１の内周に沿って形成され、中心着色部５ａ１よりも表示板１の内部に導光された照明光の反射率が高い色調の内周側周囲着色部５ａ２１を有している。そして、影となる内周側立体表示部５ｂ２が、内周側周囲着色部５ａ２１の更に内側にも形成されているから、より正確に表記部５が立体的に見える。   Further, the characters “0”, “4”, “6”, “8”, “9” having the inner peripheral portion 5d closed by the central coloring portion 5a1 inside the notation portion 5 are the characters of the central coloring portion 5a1. It has an inner peripheral side colored portion 5a21 which is formed along the inner periphery and has a color tone with a higher reflectance of illumination light guided into the display panel 1 than the central colored portion 5a1. And since the inner peripheral side three-dimensional display part 5b2 used as a shadow is also formed further inside the inner peripheral side surrounding coloring part 5a21, the notation part 5 can be more accurately viewed three-dimensionally.

また、内周側周囲着色部５ａ２１の更に内側の立体表示部５ｂが存在しない表記部５の輪郭部分に、表記部５の輪郭を示す内側輪郭線５ｃ１（図４）が形成されている。そのため、表記部５の内周部５ｄ側の輪郭が内側輪郭線５ｃ１と内周側立体表示部５ｂ２とによって明確になり、表記部５が立体的に見えて、一層判読し易くなる。   In addition, an inner contour line 5c1 (FIG. 4) indicating the contour of the notation portion 5 is formed in the contour portion of the notation portion 5 where the three-dimensional display portion 5b inside the inner peripheral side colored portion 5a21 does not exist. Therefore, the contour on the inner peripheral portion 5d side of the notation portion 5 is clarified by the inner contour line 5c1 and the inner peripheral side three-dimensional display portion 5b2, and the notation portion 5 looks three-dimensional and becomes easier to read.

また、図４及び図５のように、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１は、溝状の窪みからなり、溝の最大幅、つまり、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の最大幅Ｂは、中心着色部５ａの最大幅Ｃの２５％から７５％、好ましくは４０％からの６０％の範囲内に選定されているから、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の傾斜面１０が、充分に反射して、表記部５の高級感のある立体表示部を形成し、立体的な表記部５の表示が可能となる。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the V-shaped cut 5b1 is formed of a groove-like depression, and the maximum width of the groove, that is, the maximum width B of the V-shaped cut 5b1 is the maximum width C of the center coloring portion 5a. Since it is selected within the range of 25% to 75%, preferably 40% to 60%, the inclined surface 10 of the V-shaped cut 5b1 is sufficiently reflected, and the display unit 5 has a high-class stereoscopic display. The three-dimensional notation unit 5 can be displayed.

（第２実施形態）
次に、本発明の第２実施形態について説明する。なお、以降の各実施形態においては、上述した第１実施形態と同一の構成要素には同一の符号を付して説明を省略し、異なる構成および特徴について説明する。図７は、本発明の第２実施形態を示す車両用計器の一部正面図である。 (Second Embodiment)
Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the following embodiments, the same components as those in the first embodiment described above are denoted by the same reference numerals, description thereof will be omitted, and different configurations and features will be described. FIG. 7 is a partial front view of a vehicle instrument showing a second embodiment of the present invention.

この第２実施形態において、図５と同じＶ字カット５ｂ１の内部における傾斜面１０に、赤色の印刷を行うことで、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１が赤色に表示されるようにしたものである。これによっても、昼夜で異なる立体表示が可能になり、特に、夜間は表示板１に導入されるＬＥＤ８の照明光によってＶ字カット５ｂ１の傾斜面１０が赤く発光するため、緊張感のある表示が可能になる。   In the second embodiment, red printing is performed on the inclined surface 10 in the same V-shaped cut 5b1 as in FIG. 5 so that the V-shaped cut 5b1 is displayed in red. This also enables different three-dimensional display between day and night, and in particular, the inclined surface 10 of the V-shaped cut 5b1 emits red light by the illumination light of the LED 8 introduced into the display panel 1 at night. It becomes possible.

図７において、Ｒ１、Ｒ２、Ｒ３の符号が付された部位は、赤く発光する部位を代表する部位であり、Ｒ１は表示板１の外周側のアーチ部、Ｒ２は、表示板１の裏側から表側に窪んで形成されたＶ字カット５ｂ１（図５と同等）内に印刷された赤色塗料が、エッジライト照明の照明光を反射して発光している立体表示部５ｂであり、複数個所に存在する。また、Ｒ３は、表示板１の裏側に印刷された目盛内に形成されたカット部分（窪み）内に印刷された赤色塗料の反射による発光部であり、複数個所に存在する。   In FIG. 7, the parts denoted by R 1, R 2, and R 3 are parts that represent red light emitting parts, R 1 is an arch portion on the outer peripheral side of the display board 1, and R 2 is from the back side of the display board 1. The red paint printed in the V-shaped cut 5b1 (equivalent to FIG. 5) formed to be depressed on the front side is a three-dimensional display portion 5b that emits light by reflecting the illumination light of the edge light illumination. Exists. R3 is a light emitting portion by reflection of red paint printed in a cut portion (indent) formed in a scale printed on the back side of the display board 1, and is present at a plurality of locations.

図８は、図７の表記部５の「１８０」、「２００」部分の拡大図である。図７において、「１８０」、「２００」といった表記部５は、表示板１の裏側に印刷され、数字自体を表す数字表記部５ａを有する。また、この表記部５ａの右側に隣接して表記部５ａを立体的に見せる立体表示部５ｂを有している。この立体表示部５ｂは、表示板１の裏面側から表面側に窪んだ少なくとも一つの傾斜面１０（図５に同じ）を持ったＶ字カット５ｂ１から成る。   FIG. 8 is an enlarged view of “180” and “200” portions of the notation 5 in FIG. In FIG. 7, the notation portions 5 such as “180” and “200” are printed on the back side of the display board 1 and have a number notation portion 5 a representing the number itself. Moreover, it has the three-dimensional display part 5b which adjoins the right side of this description part 5a, and shows the description part 5a in three dimensions. The three-dimensional display portion 5b includes a V-shaped cut 5b1 having at least one inclined surface 10 (same as in FIG. 5) recessed from the back surface side to the front surface side of the display plate 1.

そして、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の傾斜面１０には、印刷または塗装により赤色の塗料の層が形成されている。この赤色の塗料の層は、単に立体的に見せるために色をつけただけでなく、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の窪みの中に形成されているから、表示板１に導入されるＬＥＤ８（図３と同等）照明光によって反射するため、緊張感のある立体感をかもし出す。   A red paint layer is formed on the inclined surface 10 of the V-shaped cut 5b1 by printing or painting. This red paint layer is not only colored to make it look three-dimensional, but also formed in the depression of the V-shaped cut 5b1, so that the LED 8 (see FIG. 3) introduced into the display panel 1 is formed. Equivalent) Reflects with illumination light, creating a three-dimensional feeling with tension.

なお、赤色だけでなく、その他の色でも良いことは勿論である。また、矢印Ｙ８０（図８）にて示す方向は、表示板１を運転者が見たときの左側からの仮想光の進入方向である。陰影法により立体的に見せるために、左方向からの仮想光と反対側の影相当部位に立体表示部５ｂをなすＶ字カット５ｂ１を設け、立体感が出せるようにしている。従って、文字板１の表記部５の影相当部位の位置を決定する仮想光の進入方向と、実際に文字板１内に導入されるエッジライト照明による照明光の方向とは相違している。   Of course, not only red but also other colors may be used. Moreover, the direction shown by arrow Y80 (FIG. 8) is the approach direction of the virtual light from the left side when the driver | operator looks at the display board 1. FIG. In order to make a three-dimensional appearance by the shadow method, a V-shaped cut 5b1 that forms the three-dimensional display portion 5b is provided in a shadow-corresponding portion opposite to the virtual light from the left direction so that a three-dimensional effect can be produced. Therefore, the approach direction of the virtual light that determines the position of the shadow-corresponding portion of the notation 5 of the dial 1 is different from the direction of the illumination light by the edge light illumination that is actually introduced into the dial 1.

（第３実施形態）
次に、本発明の第３実施形態について説明する。上述した実施形態と異なる特徴部分を説明する。図９は、本発明の第３実施形態を示す車両用計器の一部正面図である。図１０は、図９の領域Ｆ１０内の表記部５における「２０」と「４０」の一部拡大正面図である。図１０において、表記部５の周りの全周囲をＶ字カット５ｂ１が、一筆書きのように一周して取り巻いている。 (Third embodiment)
Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described. Features different from the above-described embodiment will be described. FIG. 9 is a partial front view of a vehicle instrument showing a third embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 10 is a partially enlarged front view of “20” and “40” in the notation unit 5 in the region F10 of FIG. In FIG. 10, a V-shaped cut 5b1 surrounds the entire circumference around the notation portion 5 as if it were a single stroke.

表記部５は、表示板１の裏側に印刷され、数字自体を表す数字表記部５ａを有する。また、この数字表記部５ａの周囲を取り囲むように表記部５ａを立体的に見せる立体表示部５ｂを有している。この立体表示部５ａは、一つの表記部５である例えば「２０」に対して１つのループ状のリングから構成されている。   The notation part 5 is printed on the back side of the display board 1 and has a number notation part 5a representing the number itself. Moreover, it has the three-dimensional display part 5b which shows the description part 5a in three dimensions so that the circumference | surroundings of this number description part 5a may be surrounded. The three-dimensional display unit 5 a is configured by one loop-shaped ring for one notation unit 5, for example, “20”.

従って、表示板１の裏面側から表面側に切り込まれた少なくとも一つの傾斜面１０（図５と同等）を持ったＶ字カット５ｂ１も１つのループ状のリングから構成されているから、照明光が部分的に反射して、立体感をかもし出すことができる。また、照明光の表示板１内への進入方向が変化すると、反射するリング状のＶ字カット５ｂ１内の部位も変化するから、例えば、図９の指針４の先端から光が放射されるようにすると、指針４の動きに応じて、表示状態が変化する。なお、この指針先端からの光の放射は必須ではない。   Accordingly, the V-shaped cut 5b1 having at least one inclined surface 10 (equivalent to FIG. 5) cut from the back surface side to the front surface side of the display panel 1 is also composed of one loop-shaped ring. Light can be partially reflected to create a three-dimensional effect. Further, when the direction in which the illumination light enters the display board 1 is changed, the portion in the ring-shaped V-shaped cut 5b1 that is reflected also changes, so that, for example, light is emitted from the tip of the pointer 4 in FIG. Then, the display state changes according to the movement of the pointer 4. Note that light emission from the tip of the pointer is not essential.

（その他の実施形態）
本発明は、上述した実施形態にのみ限定されるものではなく、次のように変形または拡張することができる。図１１は、その他のＶ字カットの断面形状を示す図５に対応する模式断面図である。この図１１に示すような、その他のＶ字カット５ｂ１の断面形状を持つものであっても良い。図１１の（ａ）は、不等辺三角形の断面を持つものであり、図１１の（ｂ）は、台形状の断面を持つものである。なお、図１１においては、断面を示すハッチングを一部省略している。 (Other embodiments)
The present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be modified or expanded as follows. FIG. 11 is a schematic cross-sectional view corresponding to FIG. 5 showing another V-shaped cross-sectional shape. The other V-shaped cut 5b1 may have a cross-sectional shape as shown in FIG. FIG. 11 (a) has an unequal triangular cross section, and FIG. 11 (b) has a trapezoidal cross section. In FIG. 11, a part of hatching showing a cross section is omitted.

次に、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１内の傾斜面１０に鏡面加工を施して鏡面を形成し、この鏡面で照明光を反射させることが望ましいが、単なる成型上のカット面とし、特別な鏡面として表面粗さを細かくしなくても良い。また、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の傾斜面１０にシボ加工された部分を形成することで、夜間照明時、シボの全体が光り、全体が浮き出て見えて、また違った立体感を演出できる。   Next, it is desirable that the inclined surface 10 in the V-shaped cut 5b1 is mirror-finished to form a mirror surface, and the illumination light is reflected by this mirror surface. There is no need to make it finer. Further, by forming the embossed portion on the inclined surface 10 of the V-shaped cut 5b1, the entire embossed surface shines at night illumination, and the entire image appears to be raised, and a different three-dimensional effect can be produced.

また、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の傾斜面１０に、輝きのある印刷膜を形成するように、鏡面印刷してもよい。あるいは、マスキングしていないＶ字カット５ｂ１の内面に塗膜が付着するように鏡面インキを吹き付けても良い。このように、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１の傾斜面１０に、輝きのある鏡面印刷や、鏡面インキの吹き付け塗膜を形成することで、傾斜面１０の輝きが強調され、一層、立体的に表記部５を視認させることができる。また、照明光は、指標に対して上下左右どちら方向から表記部５に照射されても効果があるため、エッジライト照明と、表示板１の裏側から照明するバックライト照明を組み合わせても良い。   Moreover, you may perform mirror surface printing so that the glossy printed film may be formed in the inclined surface 10 of V-shaped cut 5b1. Or you may spray mirror surface ink so that a coating film may adhere to the inner surface of the V-shaped cut 5b1 which is not masked. In this way, the shining mirror surface printing or the spray coating of the mirror surface ink is formed on the inclined surface 10 of the V-shaped cut 5b1, so that the shine of the inclined surface 10 is emphasized, and the notation 5 Can be visually recognized. Further, since the illumination light is effective regardless of whether it is irradiated on the index from above, below, left, or right, the edge light illumination and the backlight illumination that illuminates from the back side of the display panel 1 may be combined.

また、指針４の先端から指針内部に導光された照明光が放射されるタイプの車両用計器に本発明を採用して、指針先端からの光により、指針４が指し示している表記部５でのＶ字カット５ｂ１の反射を強調するようにしても良い。また、照明光の色を表示中に変えても良い。   Further, the present invention is applied to a vehicle instrument of a type that emits illumination light guided from the tip of the pointer 4 to the inside of the pointer, and the notation 5 indicated by the pointer 4 by the light from the tip of the pointer. The reflection of the V-shaped cut 5b1 may be emphasized. Further, the color of the illumination light may be changed during display.

また、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１に、反射させるための印刷やシボ加工がされていない場合は、形状によっては、Ｖ字カット５ｂ１を介して計器内部構造が見えてしまう。このため、傾斜面１０の傾斜角θ１（図５）を、好ましくは、３５度〜４５度に設定すれば、照明光を全反射させて、内部構造を隠蔽できる効果がある。また、速度計（スピードメータ）のみでなく、エンジン回転計（タコメータ）や燃料計等、その他の計器にも、採用することができる。   Moreover, when the V-cut 5b1 is not printed or textured for reflection, the internal structure of the instrument can be seen through the V-cut 5b1 depending on the shape. For this reason, if the inclination angle θ1 (FIG. 5) of the inclined surface 10 is preferably set to 35 to 45 degrees, there is an effect that the illumination light can be totally reflected and the internal structure can be concealed. Moreover, it can employ | adopt not only a speedometer (speedometer) but other instruments, such as an engine tachometer (tachometer) and a fuel gauge.

また、傾斜面は、テーパ面でなく、なだらかな曲面でも良い。また、表記部として数字部を使用した実施形態を示したが、ＥやＦといった数字ではない表記部を指針が指し示す計器に本発明を使用することもできる。更に、指針は無くても良く、指標の位置を指示する複数の発光ダイオードの点灯位置の推移で指針の代用としても良い。   The inclined surface may be a gently curved surface instead of a tapered surface. Moreover, although embodiment which used the number part as a description part was shown, this invention can also be used for the instrument which a pointer points out the description part which is not numbers, such as E and F. Further, the pointer may not be provided, and the pointer may be used instead of the lighting position of a plurality of light emitting diodes that indicate the position of the index.
