C. Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, at the time of aiming, since the work is performed by opening the engine hood at the front of the vehicle, the vicinity of the visible window 10 becomes dark due to positional relationship, and it may be difficult to visually confirm. . Also, since the light source 3 is turned on to perform aiming,
When the light source 3 is turned on, the temperature inside the housing 2 increases,
The liquid in the level 7 expands to reduce bubbles, and similarly, it may be difficult to visually confirm the level. The temperature rise inside the housing 2 is caused by the aiming adjustment confirmation mechanism 6,
In particular, there is a possibility that thermal deformation of the support portion 7a, the fixing housing 8 and the screw 9 may be caused, and an error may occur in the measurement by the level 7.

Hold itself horizontally by its own weight. In this embodiment, the aiming is performed so that the swing axis of the reflector 4 and the light source 3 which can swing together and the swing axis of the horizontal member 23, that is, the axis connecting the pair of mounting shafts 30 are parallel to each other. The arrangement of the adjustment confirmation mechanism 21 has been determined.

Further, in the horizontal plate 28 of the horizontal member 23, an opening 31 similar to the upper end 24a is formed in a portion corresponding to the upper side of the upper end 24a of the light guide member 24 when the aiming adjustment is completed. The shape of the opening 31 corresponds to the upper end 24 of the light guide member 24.
It is desirable that the shape is similar to the shape of a and that the upper end 24a of the light guide member 24 substantially matches the opening 31 when the opening 31 is viewed from above.

In the vehicle headlamp 20 configured as described above, the horizontal member 23 maintains its own horizontal position regardless of the inclination of the unit including the reflector 4 and the light source 3 swinging integrally therewith. In this state, when the worker looks at the upper end 24a of the light guide member 24 through the opening 31 of the horizontal member 23, the upper end 24a is within the opening 31 when the aiming adjustment is completed. Conversely, when the reflector 4 is vertically displaced from the horizontal axis, the upper end 24a of the light guide member 24 is
Does not fit in one. Accordingly, the aiming adjustment can be performed by adjusting the swing angle of the reflector 4 by an aiming adjustment mechanism (not shown) so that the upper end 24a is within the opening 31.

According to the present embodiment, since the light of the light source 3 is directly guided by the light guide member 24 and is used for the aiming adjustment, unlike the conventional example using the bubble level 7, the aiming adjustment is performed regardless of the surrounding brightness. Can be performed. Further, the influence of the temperature rise in the reflector 4 due to the lighting of the light source 3 is also difficult to see because the bubble level 7 is not used. Such a situation does not occur, and the horizontal member 23 can always maintain its own level even if each member is thermally deformed, so that a measurement error due to the thermal deformation can be suppressed as much as possible. As a result, it is possible to realize a vehicular lamp in which the aiming adjustment by visual observation is easy and the adjustment operation can be performed with high accuracy.

The details of the vehicular lamp according to the present invention are not limited to the above-described embodiment, and various modifications are possible. As an example, in the above-described embodiment, the aiming adjustment confirmation mechanism is formed separately from the reflector, but these may be formed integrally (at least the base and the reflector).
The installation location of the aiming adjustment confirmation mechanism may be any location, and is not limited to just above the light source 3. Further, the horizontal member in the above-described embodiment may be fixed to the reflector.

Furthermore, the shape of the distal end 24a of the light guide member 24 and the shape of the opening 31 are similar, but if the center of the light flux from the light guide member 24 passes through the center of the opening 31, it is not necessarily similar. It does not have to be in shape. For example, the light beam from the light guide member 24 may be circular and the opening 31 may be square, and the opening 31 may be covered with a transparent member on which a target marked with + is printed. In short, the shape of the light flux and the aperture is not limited as long as the aiming adjustment state can be confirmed by passing the center of the light flux guided from the light source 3 which is the point of the present invention through the center of the aperture.

G. Effects of the Invention As described in detail above, according to the present invention, it is possible to adjust the aiming while confirming that the center of the light flux guided from the light source passes through the center of the opening of the horizontal member. Aiming adjustment can be performed regardless of the above. Also, regarding the influence of the temperature rise in the reflector due to the lighting of the light source, there is no danger that visual observation becomes difficult due to the expansion of the liquid unlike the bubble level, and furthermore, each member is thermally deformed. However, since the horizontal member can always maintain its own level, the measurement error due to thermal deformation can be suppressed as much as possible. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to realize a vehicular lamp in which the aiming adjustment by visual observation is easy and the adjustment operation can be performed with high accuracy.
