Abstract

The goal is to achieve miniaturization while ensuring a highly visible light illumination in the necessary direction. [Solution] A vehicle warning light equipped with a variable illumination unit in which multiple light sources can be sequentially switched on and off in the circumferential direction, the variable illumination unit comprises a chassis having multiple mounting parts arranged in the circumferential direction in different orientations, multiple substrates each mounted on the mounting parts and having light sources mounted on one surface in the thickness direction, and multiple inner lenses positioned opposite the substrates in the thickness direction and controlling the light emitted from the light sources, the inner lenses being positioned on the opposite side of the mounting parts with the substrates in between, overlapping the substrates.
