To provide a vehicular lamp capable of making a desired light distribution on a light shielding member while having a simple configuration. The vehicular lamp comprises a first and second light source each having a light emitting surface and being arranged in a predetermined parallel direction; a single condenser lens for condensing light emitted from the first and second light source; a light shielding member provided with an irradiation slit through which light condensed by the condenser lens is partially passed; and a projection lens for projecting light passed through the light shielding member to form an irradiation pattern. The first and second light source are arranged with an interval equal to or larger than dimensions in the parallel direction on the light emitting surfaces, the condenser lens makes a light distribution in which a high light quantity area with the highest light quantity is single in the parallel direction.

An external cladding component of or for a vehicle, by which information can be displayed, is disclosed. The cladding component has a base body with a first surface and a second surface, the second surface facing to the exterior of the cladding component, and an aperture running through the base body, and a light source providing a beam of light, wherein the light source is at least partially arranged within the aperture and protrudes the second surface, or the beam of light is running through the aperture, wherein the beam of light at least partially impinges on an illumination section provided by the second surface.

A required weld strength is ensured even when the shape of a first resin member is formed in a desired design shape. A lamp lens and a lamp housing are provided. The lamp lens and the lamp housing are fixed to each other by welding under pressure. The lamp lens includes a body portion, a leg portion, and a welding portion. As a result, a required weld strength is ensured even when the shape of the body portion of the lamp lens is shaped in a desired design shape.

An internal part for a lighting tool for a vehicle, including: an entering portion for light; an emitting portion for light; and a light-guiding portion to guide the light grom the entering portion to the emitting portion, the part being arranged at a distance of 5 mm or less from a light source, wherein the part is a molded body formed of a resin composition, wherein a 5-millimeter thick plate, obtained by subjecting the resin composition to injection molding at a cylinder temperature of 260° C., a die temperature of 80° C., a cycle time of 50 seconds, and a retention time of 230 seconds, a total light transmittance of 80% or more, and a ratio (X/Y) of a spectral light transmittance (X) of the 5-millimeter thick plate at a wavelength of 350 nm to a spectral light transmittance (Y) thereof at a wavelength of 400 nm is 0.75 or more.

An aircraft light comprises a support board; a light source, arranged on the support board; a first optical element, which is at least partially light transmissive, which is arranged over the light source, and which is fixed to the support board; and a second optical element, which is at least partially light transmissive, wherein the first optical element is interposed between the light source and the second optical element. The first optical element has a first engagement portion and the second optical element has a second engagement portion. The first engagement portion and the second engagement portion establish a positive fit between the first optical element and the second optical element. At least a portion of light, which is emitted by the light source in operation, passes through the first optical element and through the second optical element.

A light for the exterior of a vehicle includes at least one illuminant and a lens. The illuminant emits light in an activated state that hits the lens directly or indirectly via a reflector. The lens is transparent to light in a first predetermined wavelength range and reflects light in a second different wavelength range when the illuminant is deactivated. The illuminant is at least one light-emitting diode (LED). The diode emits light in a third wavelength range, which is predetermined such that the emitted light, after transmission through the lens, is present in a predetermined fourth wavelength range that is at least different from the second wavelength region. The light can be used as part of a rear light in a vehicle.

An indicator lamp of the present invention includes a lamp body, a light source unit disposed inside the lamp body, and a light transmissive resin member disposed at a position for transmitting light that is emitted from the light source unit and for outputting the light from the lamp body. The light source unit emits red light having a maximum value of light intensity at a wavelength of 600 nm or longer and 700 nm or shorter. The light transmissive resin member has an L* value of 35 or less, a transmittance of light having a wavelength of 675 nm of 90% or greater and a total light transmittance of 5% or greater in the state in which an optical path length of transmitting light is 2 mm. This configuration provides an indicator lamp with excellent design that shows its presence by showing a red chromatic tone when a light source is turned on and that shows a black color tone when the light source is turned off.

The present invention enables further improvement of luminous efficiency of a semiconductor light-emitting element. In the present invention, a mounting member, a substrate, two semiconductor light-emitting elements, and three terminals are configured as a socket which is an integral structure, while a control circuit is configured separately from the socket. As a result, in the present invention, the control circuit is separated from the substrate of the socket, and therefore it becomes possible to further improve the luminous efficiency of the semiconductor light-emitting elements.

A vehicle LED lamp having a housing with a front lens of lens elements, a circuit board with LEDs, each providing light of one of three different colors, in which each LED is positioned with respect to a different one of the lens elements. A controller for operating the LEDs of a first color to indicate one or more of brake application (stop), activation of headlights, or turn signal, a second color to indicate reverse vehicle motion, and a third color to provide visual warning signals of one of solid on or flashing patterns. The LEDs of each of the different colors are positioned along the circuit board to substantially enable an entirety of the front lens to provide illumination from the lamp in each of the first, second, and third colors by the controller actuating those ones of the LEDs of the first, second, and third colors, respectively.
