VEHICLE DOOR MIRROR
First Claim
1. A vehicle door mirror comprising:
- between a circumferential edge of a mirror body of a reflection mirror unit and a flange on a circumferential edge of a holder adapted to hold the mirror body, providing a gap for light emission in which the circumferential edges thereof are formed to be partially spaced from each other in a radial direction; and
in the gap, secondarily disposing a light emitting portion of a lighting unit.

Abstract
In a vehicle door mirror, Between a circumferential edge of a mirror body 2 of a reflection mirror unit 1 in which a lighting unit 10 is incorporated and a flange on a circumferential edge 3a of a holder 3, a gap 4 for light emission is provided in a state in which the circumferential edges thereof are partially spaced from each other in a radial direction, and in the gap, a light emitting portion 10L of the lighting unit 10 is secondarily disposed. In this manner, a driver can directly visually recognize light that is emitted from the light emitting portion 10L, and a decrease in reflection area of the mirror body 2, which is caused by forming the gap 4, can be restrained to its required minimum level, making it possible to ensure an effective field of view of the door mirror.
