Description

本発明は、表示装置に関し、特に、光源の光を導く導光部材を有する表示装置に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a display device, and more particularly to a display device having a light guide member that guides light from a light source.

上述した従来の表示装置として、自動車に搭載された速度メータやタコメータ等として用いられる表示装置が一般的に知られている。   As the conventional display device described above, a display device used as a speed meter, a tachometer or the like mounted on an automobile is generally known.

例えば、特許文献1に速度メータとして示されている表示装置700は、図8に示すようにカップ形のケーシング711と、このケーシング711に収容される透明な導光部材712と、この導光部材712の上に重ねられる光拡散板713と、さらにこの光拡散板713の上に載置される目盛り板714と、これらケーシング711、導光部材712、光拡散板713、目盛り板714を貫通し、基端側がケーシング711に対して回転自在に支持された回転軸715と、この回転軸715の先端に一体的に固定された指針716と、この指針716及び目盛り板714の上からケーシング711に重ねられる透明なカバー717と、で主要部が構成されている。   For example, a display device 700 shown as a speed meter in Patent Literature 1 includes a cup-shaped casing 711, a transparent light guide member 712 accommodated in the casing 711, and the light guide member as shown in FIG. Light diffusing plate 713 overlaid on 712, scale plate 714 mounted on light diffusing plate 713, casing 711, light guide member 712, light diffusing plate 713, and scale plate 714. A rotating shaft 715 whose base end side is rotatably supported with respect to the casing 711, a pointer 716 integrally fixed to a distal end of the rotating shaft 715, and the casing 711 from above the pointer 716 and the scale plate 714. A transparent cover 717 to be overlaid constitutes a main part.

さらに、導光部材712は、光源からの光を導入するための環状の光入射端面部が一端側に形成された筒部726と、この筒部726の他端に一端側が続く漏斗状拡径部727と、筒部726の軸線に対して公差する平面に沿って延在する光を出射するために光出射面部728を表面側に有し且つ漏斗状拡径部727の他端側に続く平板部729とを備え、透明なアクリル樹脂などによって成形加工されている。また、平板部729の裏面には、それぞれ光の進行方向を変換するための複数の光偏向要素が形成されている。   Furthermore, the light guide member 712 has a cylindrical portion 726 in which an annular light incident end surface portion for introducing light from the light source is formed on one end side, and a funnel-shaped diameter-expanded portion in which one end side is continued to the other end of the cylindrical portion 726 In order to emit light extending along a plane that has tolerance with respect to the axis of the tube portion 726 and the tube portion 726, the light exit surface portion 728 is provided on the surface side and continues to the other end side of the funnel-shaped enlarged diameter portion 727. And a flat plate portion 729, which is molded by a transparent acrylic resin or the like. A plurality of light deflection elements for changing the traveling direction of light are formed on the back surface of the flat plate portion 729.

この表示装置700によれば、上述した導光部材712を備えているので、環状の光入射端面部から筒部726に入射した光を漏斗状拡径部727から平板部729に導き、その光出射面部728から出射させることができ、そのため、出射された光が光拡散板713で拡散されて目盛り板714を均一に照らすことができた。   According to the display device 700, since the light guide member 712 described above is provided, the light incident on the cylindrical portion 726 from the annular light incident end surface portion is guided from the funnel-shaped enlarged diameter portion 727 to the flat plate portion 729, and the light. The light can be emitted from the emission surface portion 728, so that the emitted light is diffused by the light diffusion plate 713 and the scale plate 714 can be illuminated uniformly.

しかしながら、上述した表示装置700は、それを構成する部品点数が多いので、その分、組立工数も多く必要となり、製造コストを下げることが困難であった。   However, since the display device 700 described above has a large number of components, it requires a large number of assembly steps, and it is difficult to reduce the manufacturing cost.

そこで、本発明者らは、表示装置の構成に着目して鋭意検討を行った結果、以下の表示装置を思いつくに至った。   Thus, as a result of intensive studies focusing on the configuration of the display device, the present inventors have come up with the following display device.

The claw 813, the light guide member 820 fixed to the light guide member mounting portion 812 by being locked with the end portion 820 a by the fixed claw 813, and the light reflecting surface 811, the case 810 is opposed to the light guide surface 811. Dial 830 arranged to overlap the opening on one end side, wiring board 840 arranged to overlap the opening on the other end of case 810, and light incident surface 820b provided on light guide member 820 Wiring board 840 to face The light source 841 disposed on the front surface, the movement 842 disposed on the back surface of the wiring board 840, the light reflecting surface 811, the light guide member 820, and the dial 830 are sequentially penetrated, and the movement on the base end side is the movement 842. A pointer shaft 851 connected to the rotary shaft 842a and rotatably supported, and a pointer 852 that is fixed to the tip of the pointer shaft 851 and indicates an index provided on the dial 830.

固定爪813は、図10に示すように、断面コ字状に形成された可撓性を有するアーム部813aと、アーム部813aの先端813a2に導光部材取付部812に向かって突出して設けられ且つ導光部材820の端部820aを係止する係止突起部813bと、で構成されている。アーム部813aの先端813a2は、導光部材取付部812の近傍に位置づけられ、アーム部813aの基端813a1は、アーム部813aの先端813a2より導光部材取付部812から離されて位置づけられている。アーム部813aの基端813a1は光反射面811(即ち、ケース810)に連接されている。係止突起部813bは、アーム部813aの先端813a2から基端813a1に向かうに従って徐々に導光部材取付部812に近づくように形成された傾斜面813b1と、傾斜面813b1と鋭角をなし且つアーム部813aの先端813a2が向かう方向と反対方向(図中、下方向)に向けて形成された係止面813b2とを有している。この係止面813b2は、導光部材820の端部820aに設けられた爪受面820a1と当接してそれを係止することにより、導光部材820を導光部材取付部812に固定する。   As shown in FIG. 10, the fixing claw 813 is provided with a flexible arm portion 813a formed in a U-shaped cross section and a tip 813a2 of the arm portion 813a so as to protrude toward the light guide member mounting portion 812. In addition, the light guide member 820 includes a locking projection 813b that locks the end 820a. The distal end 813a2 of the arm portion 813a is positioned in the vicinity of the light guide member mounting portion 812, and the base end 813a1 of the arm portion 813a is positioned farther from the light guide member mounting portion 812 than the distal end 813a2 of the arm portion 813a. . The base end 813a1 of the arm portion 813a is connected to the light reflecting surface 811 (that is, the case 810). The locking projection 813b has an inclined surface 813b1 formed so as to gradually approach the light guide member mounting portion 812 from the distal end 813a2 to the proximal end 813a1 of the arm portion 813a, and forms an acute angle with the inclined surface 813b1. 813a has a locking surface 813b2 formed in a direction opposite to the direction in which the tip 813a2 is directed (downward in the drawing). The locking surface 813b2 contacts the claw receiving surface 820a1 provided at the end 820a of the light guide member 820 and locks it, thereby fixing the light guide member 820 to the light guide member mounting portion 812.

導光部材820は、光源841の光を直接的に又は文字板830の裏面に反射させて間接的に光反射面811に導くものであり、そして、光反射面811は、導光部材820によって導かれた光を文字板830に向けて反射して、文字板830を均一に照らすものである。   The light guide member 820 guides the light of the light source 841 directly or indirectly to the light reflecting surface 811 by reflecting the light on the back surface of the dial 830, and the light reflecting surface 811 is guided by the light guide member 820. The guided light is reflected toward the dial plate 830 to illuminate the dial plate 830 uniformly.

以上より、この表示装置800によれば、光反射面811がケース810内に一体に設けられているので、組み付けが必要な部品点数が少なくなり、組立工数を削減することができた。また、上述した形状の固定爪813を有しているので、導光部材820の端部820aを、この傾斜面813b1に当接させて押し込むことにより、アーム部813aがその先端813a2を基端813a1に近づけるように(図11、矢印F1方向)撓んだのち、係止面813b2が導光部材820の端部820aの爪受面820a1と当接して係止し、そのため、導光部材820を容易に導光部材取付部812に固定することができた。

しかしながら、表示装置800では、固定爪813がケース810と一体に光反射面811上に設けられているので、それが配設された箇所(図10のKで示される部分)の光反射面811が削られて、光を反射する面積が減少してしまうことになる。そのため、文字板830を照らす光量が減少し、また、文字板830全体を均一な光量で照らすことができないという問題があった。また、導光部材820を導光部材取付部812に固定するとき、図11に示すように、アーム部813aがその先端813a2を基端813a1に近づけるように、即ち、アーム部813aを縮めて圧縮する方向に撓ませるので、強い力で導光部材820を押し込む必要があり、例えば、力の弱い作業者が連続して組み付けを行う場合などに、疲労によって組み付け数が制限されてしまうことがあり、組立性が悪いという問題があった。   However, in the display device 800, since the fixing claw 813 is provided on the light reflecting surface 811 integrally with the case 810, the light reflecting surface 811 at the place where the fixing claw 813 is disposed (portion indicated by K in FIG. 10). As a result, the area where light is reflected is reduced. As a result, the amount of light that illuminates the dial 830 is reduced, and the entire dial 830 cannot be illuminated with a uniform amount of light. Further, when the light guide member 820 is fixed to the light guide member mounting portion 812, as shown in FIG. 11, the arm portion 813a has its distal end 813a2 brought closer to the base end 813a1, that is, the arm portion 813a is contracted and compressed. It is necessary to push the light guide member 820 with a strong force. For example, when an operator with weak force continuously assembles, the number of assembling may be limited due to fatigue. There was a problem that the assemblability was bad.

本発明は、上記課題に係る問題を解決することを目的としている。即ち、本発明は、光反射面の減少を抑えるとともに、組立性を向上させることができる表示装置を提供することを目的としている。   The present invention aims to solve the above problems. That is, an object of the present invention is to provide a display device capable of suppressing the decrease of the light reflecting surface and improving the assemblability.

上記目的を達成するために、請求項1に記載された発明は、ケースと、前記ケース内に一体に設けられた光反射面と、前記光反射面上の所定の取付位置に重ねられて固定される導光部材と、前記ケースと一体に設けられ、前記導光部材を前記取付位置に固定する固定爪と、を有する表示装置において、前記固定爪が、前記取付位置の内側から外側に延びて形成された可撓性を有するアーム部と、前記アーム部の先端に前記取付位置に向けて突出して形成され且つ前記導光部材の端部を係止する係止突起部と、を有していることを特徴とする表示装置である。   In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the invention described in claim 1 includes a case, a light reflecting surface integrally provided in the case, and a predetermined mounting position on the light reflecting surface. And a fixing claw that is provided integrally with the case and fixes the light guiding member to the mounting position. The fixing claw extends from the inside to the outside of the mounting position. A flexible arm portion formed on the front end of the arm portion and protruding toward the mounting position and locking the end portion of the light guide member. It is the display device characterized by having.

請求項2に記載された発明は、請求項1に記載された発明において、前記係止突起部が、前記アーム部の先端から基端に向かうに従って前記アーム部から離れるように形成された傾斜面と、前記傾斜面と鋭角をなし且つ前記アーム部の基端側に向けて形成された係止面と、を有し、前記導光部材の端部が、前記係止突起部と対向する方向に突出して形成されており、さらに、前記係止面に当接されて係止される爪受面を有していることを特徴とするものである。   According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the first aspect of the present invention, the locking projection is an inclined surface formed so as to move away from the arm portion as it goes from the distal end to the proximal end of the arm portion. And a locking surface that forms an acute angle with the inclined surface and is formed toward the proximal end side of the arm portion, and a direction in which the end portion of the light guide member faces the locking projection portion Further, it has a claw receiving surface that is brought into contact with and locked against the locking surface.

請求項3に記載された発明は、請求項2に記載された発明において、前記導光部材の端部の前記爪受面側の角が丸められて形成されていることを特徴とするものである。   The invention described in claim 3 is characterized in that, in the invention described in claim 2, corners on the side of the claw receiving surface of the end portion of the light guide member are rounded. is there.

請求項1に記載された発明によれば、固定爪が、取付位置の内側から外側に延びて形成された可撓性を有するアーム部を備えているので、導光部材が重ねられる取付位置の内側にアーム部が位置づけられ、そのため、光反射面を削ることなく導光部材を固定する固定爪を設けることができる。また、係止突起部が、取付位置に向かって突出して設けられているので、導光部材を取付位置に固定するとき、アーム部の先端をその基端から離すように、即ち、アーム部を広げて伸ばす方向に撓ませるので、アーム部を圧縮する方向に撓ませることに比べて少ない力で足り、そのため、導光部材をより容易に光反射面上に固定することができる。よって、光反射面の減少を抑えるとともに、組立性を向上させることができる。   According to the first aspect of the present invention, since the fixing claw includes the flexible arm portion formed to extend from the inner side to the outer side of the mounting position, the fixing claw of the mounting position where the light guide member is overlapped. The arm portion is positioned on the inner side, and therefore, a fixing claw for fixing the light guide member without cutting the light reflecting surface can be provided. Further, since the locking projection is provided so as to protrude toward the mounting position, when the light guide member is fixed at the mounting position, the arm portion is separated from the base end, that is, the arm portion is Since it bends in the direction of expanding and extending, it requires less force than in the direction of compressing the arm portion, so that the light guide member can be more easily fixed on the light reflecting surface. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the reduction of the light reflecting surface and improve the assemblability.

請求項2に記載された発明によれば、固定爪の先端に設けられた係止突起部が、アーム部の先端から基端に向かうに従ってアーム部から離れるように形成された傾斜面を有しているので、導光部材を取付位置に固定するとき、導光部材の端部をこの傾斜面に当接して押し込むことにより、アーム部を広げて伸ばす方向に撓ませることができる。そして、係止突起部が、その傾斜面と鋭角をなし且つ前記アーム部の基端側に向けて形成された係止面を有し、導光部材の端部が、前記係止突起部と対向する方向に突出して形成されており、さらに、係止面に当接されて係止される爪受面を有しているので、導光部材を取付位置に向かって押し込み続け、係止面と爪受面とが同一平面に位置づけられたとき、アーム部の撓みがその弾性によって元に戻り、係止面と爪受面とを当接させて、導光部材の端部を係止突起部に係止させることができる。そのため、アーム部を撓ませる組立治具等が不要となり、該組立治具等に係るコストを削減してさらに組立性を向上させることができる。   According to the invention described in claim 2, the locking projection provided at the distal end of the fixed claw has an inclined surface formed so as to be separated from the arm portion as it goes from the distal end of the arm portion toward the proximal end. Therefore, when the light guide member is fixed at the attachment position, the arm portion can be bent and extended by pushing the end portion of the light guide member into contact with the inclined surface. The engaging projection has an engaging surface formed at an acute angle with the inclined surface and toward the proximal end side of the arm portion, and the end of the light guide member is connected to the engaging projection. Since it has a claw-receiving surface that protrudes in the opposite direction and is locked against the locking surface, it keeps pushing the light guide member toward the mounting position. And the claw receiving surface are positioned on the same plane, the flexure of the arm portion is restored due to its elasticity, the locking surface and the claw receiving surface are brought into contact with each other, and the end portion of the light guide member is engaged with the locking projection It can be locked to the part. This eliminates the need for an assembly jig or the like that bends the arm portion, thereby reducing the cost associated with the assembly jig or the like and further improving the assemblability.

請求項3に記載された発明によれば、導光部材の端部の爪受面側の角が丸められて形成されているので、係止突起部が導光部材の端部を容易に乗り越えて、係止面と爪受面とを容易に当接させることができ、そのため、導光部材の端部を係止突起部にスムースに係止させることができ、さらに組立性を向上させることができる。   According to the invention described in claim 3, since the corner of the end portion of the light guide member on the side of the claw receiving surface is rounded, the locking projection easily gets over the end portion of the light guide member. Thus, the locking surface and the claw receiving surface can be easily brought into contact with each other, so that the end portion of the light guide member can be smoothly locked to the locking projection, and the assemblability can be further improved. Can do.

The rotation shaft 42 a of the movement 42 passes through a through hole (not shown) provided in the wiring board 40, and the tip thereof is positioned inside the case 10. The movement 42 rotates the rotating shaft 42a in the forward and reverse directions based on a control signal corresponding to a speed measurement amount sent from a control device (not shown).

指針部50は、文字板30の表面に位置づけられ、速度測定量に応じて文字板30に設けられた複数の指標31を指示する指針52と、一方の端部が指針52に連接され、他方の端部がムーブメント42の回転軸42aに固定され、この回転軸42aの回転を指針52に伝える指針軸51と、を有している。指針部50は、透明なアクリル樹脂などの合成樹脂で形成されており、指針軸51の他方の端部近傍に設けられた図示しない入光面から、図示しない指針部用光源の光を入光させることで指針52が発光する。   The pointer portion 50 is positioned on the surface of the dial plate 30 and points to a plurality of indicators 31 provided on the dial plate 30 according to the speed measurement amount, one end portion is connected to the pointer 52, and the other Of the movement 42 is fixed to the rotation shaft 42 a of the movement 42, and the pointer shaft 51 transmits the rotation of the rotation shaft 42 a to the pointer 52.

By doing so, the pointer 52 emits light.

次に、表示装置1のケース10に導光部材20を組み付けるときの動作について図2、図5〜図7を参照して説明する。   Next, an operation when the light guide member 20 is assembled to the case 10 of the display device 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 5 to 7.

図5に示すように、導光部材20を、ケース10に設けられた導光部材取付部12の上方に位置づけ、そして、導光部材取付部12の一対の位置決め穴12aに導光部材20の一対のピン20dを挿入するようにして、導光部材20を導光部材取付部12に重ねて配置する。   As shown in FIG. 5, the light guide member 20 is positioned above the light guide member mounting portion 12 provided in the case 10, and the light guide member 20 is inserted into the pair of positioning holes 12 a of the light guide member mounting portion 12. The light guide member 20 is disposed so as to overlap the light guide member attachment portion 12 so as to insert the pair of pins 20d.

このとき、図6に示すように、導光部材20の端部20aが、固定爪13に設けられた傾斜面13b1に当接しており、この状態から導光部材20を導光部材取付部12に向かって押し込むと、導光部材20の端部20aによって、傾斜面13b1に対し図中矢印F2の方向に力が生じ、アーム部13aが、その先端13a2と基端13a1とが離れる方向に広げられて撓む。   At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, the end portion 20 a of the light guide member 20 is in contact with the inclined surface 13 b 1 provided on the fixed claw 13, and from this state, the light guide member 20 is connected to the light guide member mounting portion 12. When pushed in, the end 20a of the light guide member 20 generates a force in the direction of the arrow F2 in the figure with respect to the inclined surface 13b1, and the arm 13a expands in the direction in which the distal end 13a2 and the proximal end 13a1 are separated. Bend and bend.

そして、導光部材20をさらに押し込み続けると、図7に示すように、固定爪13の係止突起部13bが、導光部材20の端部20aの角20a2に沿って端部20aを乗り越え、図2に示すように、係止突起部13bの係止面13b2と端部20aの爪受面20a1とが当接して、固定爪13が、導光部材20の端部20aを係止して、導光部材20が導光部材取付部12に固定される。なお、図2においては、説明の便宜上、係止面13b2と爪受面20a1との間に隙間が設けられているが、実際には、係止面13b2と爪受面20a1とは互いに接している。   Then, if the light guide member 20 is further pushed in, the locking projection 13b of the fixing claw 13 gets over the end 20a along the corner 20a2 of the end 20a of the light guide member 20, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 2, the locking surface 13b2 of the locking projection 13b and the claw receiving surface 20a1 of the end 20a abut, and the fixed claw 13 locks the end 20a of the light guide member 20. The light guide member 20 is fixed to the light guide member mounting portion 12. In FIG. 2, for convenience of explanation, a gap is provided between the locking surface 13b2 and the claw receiving surface 20a1, but actually, the locking surface 13b2 and the claw receiving surface 20a1 are in contact with each other. Yes.

以上より、本発明によれば、固定爪13が、導光部材取付部12の内側から外側に延びて形成された可撓性を有するアーム部13aを備えているので、導光部材20が重ねられる箇所(即ち、導光部材取付部12内部)にアーム部13aが位置づけられ、そのため、光反射面11(即ち、図2中のKで示される箇所)を削ることなく導光部材20を固定する固定爪13を設けることができる。また、係止突起部13bが、導光部材取付部12に向かって突出して設けられているので、導光部材20を導光部材取付部12に固定するとき、アーム部13aの先端13a2をその基端13a1から離すように、即ち、アーム部13aを広げて伸ばす方向に撓ませるので、アーム部13aを圧縮する方向に撓ませることに比べて少ない力で足り、そのため、導光部材20をより容易に光反射面11上に固定することができる。よって、光反射面11の減少を抑えるとともに、組立性を向上させることができる。   As described above, according to the present invention, the fixing claw 13 includes the flexible arm portion 13a formed to extend from the inside to the outside of the light guide member mounting portion 12, so that the light guide member 20 is overlapped. The arm portion 13a is positioned at a location where the light guide member 20 is located (ie, inside the light guide member mounting portion 12), and thus the light guide member 20 is fixed without scraping the light reflecting surface 11 (ie, the location indicated by K in FIG. 2). A fixing claw 13 can be provided. Further, since the locking projection 13b is provided so as to protrude toward the light guide member attaching portion 12, when the light guide member 20 is fixed to the light guide member attaching portion 12, the tip 13a2 of the arm portion 13a is Since the arm portion 13a is bent away from the base end 13a1, that is, the arm portion 13a is expanded and extended, less force is required compared to bending the arm portion 13a in the compressing direction. It can be easily fixed on the light reflecting surface 11. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the decrease of the light reflecting surface 11 and improve the assemblability.

また、固定爪13の先端に設けられた係止突起部13bが、アーム部13aの先端13a2から基端13a1に向かうに従ってアーム部13aから離れるように(即ち、導光部材取付部12に近づくように)形成された傾斜面13b1を有しているので、導光部材20を導光部材取付部12に固定するとき、導光部材20の端部20aをこの傾斜面13b1に当接して押し込むことにより、アーム部13aを広げて伸ばす方向に撓ませることができる。そして、係止突起部13bが、その傾斜面13b1と鋭角をなし且つアーム部13aの基端13a1側に向けて形成された係止面13b2を有し、導光部材20の端部20aが、係止突起部13bと対向する方向に突出して形成されており、さらに、係止面13b2に当接されて係止される爪受面20a1を有しているので、導光部材20を導光部材取付部12に向かって押し込み続け、係止面13b2と爪受面20a1とが同一平面に位置づけられたとき、アーム部13aの撓みがその弾性によって元に戻り、係止面13b2と爪受面20a1とを当接させて、導光部材20の端部20aを係止突起部13bに係止させることができる。そのため、アーム部13aを撓ませる組立治具等が不要となり、該組立治具等に係るコストを削減してさらに組立性を向上させることができる。   Further, the locking projection 13b provided at the distal end of the fixing claw 13 moves away from the arm portion 13a toward the proximal end 13a1 from the distal end 13a2 of the arm portion 13a (that is, closer to the light guide member mounting portion 12). (B) When the light guide member 20 is fixed to the light guide member mounting portion 12, the end portion 20a of the light guide member 20 is pressed against the inclined surface 13b1. Thus, the arm portion 13a can be bent and expanded. Then, the locking projection 13b has an locking surface 13b2 that forms an acute angle with the inclined surface 13b1 and is formed toward the base end 13a1 side of the arm 13a, and the end 20a of the light guide member 20 is The light guide member 20 is guided by the light guide member 20 because it has a claw-receiving surface 20a1 that protrudes in a direction opposite to the locking protrusion 13b and is locked by being brought into contact with the locking surface 13b2. When the locking surface 13b2 and the claw receiving surface 20a1 are positioned on the same plane, the arm portion 13a is bent back due to its elasticity when the locking surface 13b2 and the claw receiving surface 20a1 are positioned on the same plane. The end portion 20a of the light guide member 20 can be locked to the locking projection 13b by contacting with 20a1. This eliminates the need for an assembly jig or the like that bends the arm portion 13a, thereby reducing the cost associated with the assembly jig or the like and further improving assemblability.

また、導光部材20の端部20aの爪受面20a1側の角20a2が丸められて形成されているので、係止突起部13bが導光部材20の端部20aを容易に乗り越えて、係止面13b2と爪受面20a1とを容易に当接させることができ、そのため、導光部材20の端部20aを係止突起部13bにスムースに係止させることができ、さらに組立性を向上させることができる。   Further, since the corner 20a2 of the end portion 20a of the light guide member 20 on the claw receiving surface 20a1 side is rounded, the locking projection 13b easily gets over the end portion 20a of the light guide member 20, The stop surface 13b2 and the claw receiving surface 20a1 can be easily brought into contact with each other. Therefore, the end portion 20a of the light guide member 20 can be smoothly locked to the locking projection 13b, and the assemblability is further improved. Can be made.
