Problems solved by technology
[0006] However, in the past, when lighting components were installed on the instrument panel to ensure the above-mentioned convenience, the lighting light of the lighting components easily directly entered the field of vision of the driver sitting in the front seat of the vehicle, and became a visual obstacle.
In this way, once the lighting light directly enters the driver's field of vision, especially at night when there is lighting, driving will become difficult and cause obstacles.
[0007] In addition, even if indirect lighting is used for the lighting installed on the instrument panel, due to conditions such as the installation position of the lighting components and the direction of the lighting light, the lighting light directly enters the driver's field of vision sitting in the front seat, which becomes a visual obstacle.

Embodiment Construction
[0060] Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.
[0061] figure 1 It is a perspective view schematically showing the front part of the cabin of the automobile according to the first embodiment of the present invention. As shown in the figure, the front portion of the automobile compartment is provided with an instrument panel 10 covering the lower front side of the compartment, and a windshield 20 covering the upper front side of the compartment is provided above the instrument panel 10 . The front edge of the instrument panel 10 is located near the lower edge of the windshield 20 . In addition, the side glass 25 is provided from the outer end side of the windshield 20 in the vehicle width direction to the rear side of the windshield 20 , and the front side edge of the instrument panel 10 is positioned near the lower edge of the side glass 25 . .

Disclosed is a vehicle interior illumination structure comprising, in combination, an instrument panel 10 installed in a front interior area of a vehicle, and a light-guiding illumination member 2 disposed in the instrument panel. The instrument panel 10 is formed with a step portion S laterally extending at a height approximately equal to or above that of a mounting portion of a shaft of a steering wheel 35 to the instrument panel. The step portion S is defined in such a manner that a step upper surface 11 f located on the upper side of the step portion and a step lower surface 12 f located on the lower side of the step portion are formed in the instrument panel 10 , and the step upper surface 11 f has a rear edge 11 p protruding in the rearward direction of the vehicle relative to a front edge 12 p of the step lower surface 12 f. The illumination member 2 is arranged to extend laterally at a position which is adjacent to the front edge 12 p of the step lower surface 12 f and capable of preventing illumination light of the illumination member 2 from directly coming within the field of view of a driver sitting in a front seat in the vehicle interior. The vehicle interior illumination structure of the present invention can prevent illumination light of the illumination member from obstructing the driver's view.
Description
technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a lighting device for illuminating a vehicle interior in a vehicle such as an automobile, and more specifically, to a lighting device for a vehicle interior in which a light-guiding lighting member is provided on an instrument panel at the front of the vehicle cabin. Background technique [0002] In recent years, vehicles such as automobiles have adopted indirect lighting instead of conventional direct lighting for the purpose of improving the interior decoration of the vehicle interior and creating a quiet atmosphere during lighting, etc., for lighting devices that illuminate the interior of the vehicle at night. . This indirect lighting does not use the direct light of the lighting part that can emit lighting light like direct lighting, but reflects the lighting light of the lighting part through the nearby wall surface, etc., and uses the reflected light for lighting, so it can avoid d...
