Abstract

Provided is a vehicle lamp that suppresses light leakage occurring between a plurality of light sources. This vehicle lamp (1) comprises: a first inner lens (30) in which a light-transmitting part (31) divided into a plurality of segments (C) and a light-shielding part (32) positioned between the segments (C) of the light-transmitting part (31) are integrally formed; a plurality of light sources (72), one or more of which are provided to each segment (C), and which emit light toward a back surface of the first inner lens (30); and a plurality of light-shielding ribs (51) that are provided along the light-shielding part (32) and divide the space between the back surface of the first inner lens (30) and the light sources (72) into a plurality of spaces respectively corresponding to the segments (C). The light-shielding part (32) is formed from the back surface to a front surface of the first inner lens (30).

Claims

1. A vehicle light fixture comprising: a lens integrally formed with a light-transmitting portion divided into multiple segments and a light-shielding portion located between the segments of the light-transmitting portion; one or more light sources provided for each segment, emitting light toward the back surface of the lens; and multiple light-shielding ribs provided along the light-shielding portion, dividing the space between the back surface of the lens and the light sources into multiple spaces corresponding to each segment, wherein the light-shielding portion is formed extending from the back surface to the front surface of the lens.

2. The vehicle lamp according to claim 1, further comprising a light-shielding member that blocks the light path between the light-shielding rib and the light-shielding portion.

3. The vehicle lamp according to claim 2, wherein the light-shielding member is an elastic member having elasticity and light-shielding properties, and is fitted between the light-shielding rib and the light-shielding portion.

4. The vehicle light fixture according to claim 3, wherein the back surface of the light-transmitting portion is provided with a pair of protrusions formed so as to sandwich the light-shielding portion, and the elastic member has a groove formed therein into which the light-shielding rib is fitted, and is fitted between the protrusions.

5. The vehicle light fixture according to claim 4, wherein the elastic member comprises a first fitting portion having the groove formed thereon, and a second fitting portion which is an elastic piece formed integrally with the first fitting portion and fitted between the first fitting portion and the protrusion.

6. The vehicle lamp according to claim 2, wherein the light-shielding member has light-shielding properties and is positioned close to the front end of the light-shielding rib and the rear end of the light-shielding portion, which are opposite each other in the front-rear direction of the lamp, and is arranged to shield the space between the front end of the light-shielding rib and the rear end of the light-shielding portion when viewed in a direction perpendicular to the front-rear direction of the lamp.

7. The vehicle lamp according to claim 6, wherein the light-shielding member is a light-shielding projection formed to protrude from the light-shielding portion toward the rear in the front-rear direction of the lamp.

8. The vehicle lamp according to claim 1 or 2, wherein the light-transmitting portion comprises a diffusion layer that diffuses transmitted light.

9. The vehicle lamp according to claim 8, further comprising a pair of protrusions formed on the back surface of the light-transmitting portion so as to sandwich the light-shielding portion, wherein the protrusions comprise the diffusion layer.

10. A vehicle light fixture according to claim 1 or 2, comprising a panel having a rib portion positioned facing the front surface of the lens and provided along the light-shielding portion, with an opening formed facing the light-transmitting portion, wherein the width of the rib portion is greater than or equal to the width of the light-shielding portion, and the color of the rib portion is the same as the color of the vehicle body.
