An optical lens (10) capable of facilitating efficient light distribution control with a simple configuration is provided. It comprises a plurality of light distribution control parts (11) continuing in a bilateral direction such that each of the light distribution control parts corresponds to each column of LEDs (22), the light distribution control parts defining optical paths of light from the LEDs (22) on a column basis, in the light distribution control parts (11), optical paths each directing light entering from the LEDs (22) in a column corresponding to each of the light distribution control parts (11) to an optical axis direction are sequentially shortened from one end side to the other end side in the bilateral direction in this order, and each of the light distribution control parts (11) discharges light entering from the LEDs (22) in the corresponding column from a position at which the light distribution control part does not interfere with a light distribution control part (11) adjacent to the other end side to the same one direction of the bilateral direction that intersects optical axes of the LEDs (22).

To reduce a sense of discomfort during sequential blinking. A lighting controller for a vehicular lamp to control lighting of the vehicular lamp, where the lighting controller is configured to carry out control of moving a bright spot within the light emitting region in a predetermined direction, the bright spot obtained by lighting on a partial region of a light emitting region of the vehicular lamp, and during that time, the bright spot is moved so as to partially overlap a first region which is a partial region corresponding to the bright spot during a first period and a second region which is a partial region corresponding to the bright spot during a second period which follows the first period.

The invention relates to a lighting device, for a motor vehicle, including a plurality of light sources, which have a plurality of primary lenses dedicated to each of the respective light sources for focusing the light emitted by the respective light sources. The lighting device also has a secondary optics element which has a plurality of light entry surfaces dedicated to each respective light source and one light exit surface. A grid is located downstream of the light exit surface on the secondary optics element in the exit direction of the light, for segmenting the light exiting the light exit surface.

A covering device for arrangement on at least one outer or one inner region of a motor vehicle includes at least one form element which is produced and/or can be produced by means of injection moulding and has an inner side oriented towards the motor vehicle and an outer side oriented away from the motor vehicle, one or more lighting devices for emitting light. The covering device also includes at least one covering element which, for covering the form element at least in regions, is arranged at least in regions on the outer side of the form element, at least part of the light emitted by the lighting device being able to pass through the form element and/or the covering element.

A vehicular lamp includes: a main light source that emits light for forming a predetermined irradiation pattern; an optical member that allows the light emitted from the main light source to travel toward a front side in an irradiation direction to form the irradiation pattern; a heat dissipation member that releases heat from the main light source to outside; and a light guide member that guides light from an auxiliary light source provided as a separate body from the main light source. In the heat dissipation member, the heat dissipation member is provided with an opening part that opens a mounting surface provided with the main light source, and the light guide member guides light from the auxiliary light source toward the mounting surface through the opening part.

When light is off, a transparent appearance is obtained, while when the light is on, light is seen through a transparent spot. The present invention includes a light source portion and a reflective portion. The light source portion emits light. The light source portion is disposed at a position shifted with respect to an emitting direction of emitted light from the reflective portion. The reflective portion reflects the light from the light source portion and emits it in a predetermined direction. The reflective portion is constituted by a transparent member with a refractive index at least in a visible light area larger than 1. As a result, in the present invention, the transparent appearance is obtained when the light is off, while the light is seen through the transparent spot when the light is on.
