Problems solved by technology

[0004] However, in the technique disclosed in Patent Document 1, the light source installation space becomes the end of the linear light guide.
Furthermore, since light sources are provided at the ends of the light guides in the same direction, the light from each light guide cannot be continuously emitted, resulting in low designability.

Abstract

Disclosed is a door mirror device that is able to continuously emit light from two light guides. The door mirror device is equipped with a first light-emitting light guide, which is arranged in the visor part of a door mirror that is foldably mounted on the door mirror support part of a vehicle, a second light-emitting light guide, which is arranged in the door mirror support part with continuity so that one end thereof is opposite an end of the first light-emitting light guide, and a light source that shines light toward the first light-emitting light guide and the second light-emitting light guide in the visor part.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a rearview mirror device provided with a signal lamp which is integrated in a rearview mirror of an automobile and distributes light obliquely rearward of the vehicle. Background technique [0002] As the prior art, the following side turn signal lamps are known: only the light incident on the light incident end of the light guide lens can be used as a turn signal to the oblique rear of the vehicle, and the sideways of the vehicle can not be too dazzling. Light distribution with appropriate amount of light. This side turn signal lamp is provided with: a curved outer lens configured so as to fit the opening portion extending left and right along the curved outer wall of the rearview mirror housing with its design surface; and a curved lamp body integrally assembled behind the outer lens. and cooperate with the outer lens to divide the lamp chamber; the curved light guide lens made of synthetic resin is disposed in the l...
