Vehicle lamp
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A vehicle lamp, comprising:
- a light source configured to irradiate visible light beams;
a first light guide comprising a light emitting surface configured to guide light beams irradiated from the light source and further configured to emit light beams therefrom to provide a first image; and
a first reflector comprising a first reflection surface and a second reflection surface, each of the first and second reflection surfaces configured to reflect light beams incident thereto,wherein the first light guide and the first reflector are arranged relative to each other such that;
part of light beams emitted from the light emitting surface are reflected on the first reflection surface to provide a second image on a first portion of the first reflection surface,part of light beams emitted from the light emitting surface are reflected on the second reflection surface to provide a third image on a second portion of the second reflection surface,the light emitting surface is connected to the first portion of the first reflection surface and also connected to the second portion of the second reflection surface such that the first image is connected to the second and third images to form a first single integrated shape when viewed from a point outside a vehicle comprising the vehicle lamp.

Abstract
Disclosed is a vehicle lamp, including a reflector reflecting light of a light guide, wherein the reflector includes a first reflection surface and a second reflection surface forming an inner circumferential surface, together with at least a part of a light emitting surface of the light guide and the inner circumferential surface is converged in a direction opposite to an irradiation direction to form a convergent point. By this configuration, it is possible to reduce manufacturing costs and manufacturing man hour of the vehicle lamp while increasing aesthetic appearance of the vehicle.
