Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 60-139542 JP-A-10-250466

  In the case where a pair of left and right lamp modules are arranged inside the rear window as in the vehicle lamp described in the above-mentioned “Patent Document 1”, the visibility of each lamp module is increased. However, there is the following problem when trying to increase the light emitting area.

  That is, when viewing the rear of the vehicle directly from the driver's seat or through the rear mirror, a part of the rear view through the rear window is blocked by the pair of right and left lamp modules.

  At that time, the lamp module located on the side opposite to the driver's seat in the vehicle width direction, when viewed directly from the driver's seat, is viewed from an oblique direction greatly inclined from the vehicle front-rear direction. The projection width of is considerably large. For this reason, a lot of the rear view on the shoulder side is obstructed and a blind spot is likely to occur. Therefore, it is particularly difficult to increase the light emitting area of the lamp module located on the side opposite to the driver's seat.

  On the other hand, when a plurality of lamp units extending in the vertical direction are arranged at substantially constant intervals in the vehicle width direction as in the vehicle display device described in “Patent Document 2”, It is possible to secure a rear view from the gap between the lamp units. However, even when such a configuration is adopted, when viewed from an oblique direction greatly inclined from the front-rear direction of the vehicle, the gap between the lamp units is lost or very narrow.

  The present invention has been made in view of such circumstances, and in a vehicular lamp in which a pair of left and right lamp modules are arranged inside a rear window, each lamp is secured after ensuring a necessary rear view. It is an object of the present invention to provide a vehicular lamp that can increase the light emitting area of a module.

  The present invention is intended to achieve the above object by devising the configuration of the lamp module located on the side opposite to the driver's seat.

That is, the vehicular lamp according to the present invention is
In a vehicular lamp comprising a pair of left and right lamp modules arranged toward the rear of the vehicle inside the rear window,
Of the pair of left and right lamp modules, the lamp module located on the opposite side of the driver's seat in the vehicle width direction includes a plurality of lamp units disposed apart from each other in the vehicle width direction,
Each lamp unit includes a pair of left and right side walls extending in the vertical direction,
At least one lamp unit among the plurality of lamp units is set such that the side wall portion on the outer side in the vehicle width direction has a larger lateral expansion angle toward the vehicle rear side than the side wall portion on the inner side in the vehicle width direction. It is characterized by that.

  The above-mentioned “right and left widening angle toward the rear of the vehicle” means an angle that widens to the left and right sides of the lamp unit toward the rear of the vehicle. Specifically, each side wall portion shields the rear view. It means an angle formed by a straight line connecting two points before and after the start and a straight line extending in the vehicle front-rear direction.

  If the above-mentioned "one pair of left and right side walls" is set to a value in which the side wall portion on the outer side in the vehicle width direction has a larger left-right spread angle toward the vehicle rear side than the side wall portion on the inner side in the vehicle width direction, The specific value of the expansion angle of the side wall portion is not particularly limited, and in this case, with respect to the side wall portion on the inner side in the vehicle width direction, the configuration in which the left and right expansion angle toward the vehicle rear is set to a negative value. It is also possible.

  As shown in the above configuration, the vehicular lamp according to the present invention is located on the opposite side to the driver seat in the vehicle width direction among the pair of left and right lamp modules arranged toward the rear of the vehicle inside the rear window. The lamp module includes a plurality of lamp units that are spaced apart from each other in the vehicle width direction. In this case, each lamp unit includes a pair of left and right side walls extending in the vertical direction. And the at least one lamp unit is set such that the side wall portion on the outer side in the vehicle width direction has a larger lateral expansion angle toward the vehicle rear side than the side wall portion on the inner side in the vehicle width direction. The following effects can be obtained.

  That is, in general, when the lamp unit includes a pair of left and right side walls extending in the vertical direction, the left and right widening angles of the side walls toward the rear of the vehicle are set to the same value. On the other hand, the at least one lamp unit according to the present invention is set such that the laterally widening angle of the side wall portion on the outer side in the vehicle width direction is larger than the side wall portion on the inner side in the vehicle width direction. The amount by which the rear view through the rear window when the rear of the vehicle is directly viewed can be blocked by the lamp unit can be reduced as compared with a general lamp unit.

  Thereby, regarding the lamp module located on the side opposite to the driver's seat, even when the light emission area is increased, the amount of shielding of the rear view can be reduced so that blind spots are less likely to occur.

  As described above, according to the present invention, in a vehicular lamp in which a pair of right and left lamp modules are arranged inside the rear window, it is possible to increase the light emission area of each lamp module while ensuring the necessary rear view. it can.

  In the above configuration, if a plurality of lamp units constituting the lamp module located on the side opposite to the driver's seat is arranged so that the lamp unit positioned on the outer side in the vehicle width direction is displaced toward the front side of the vehicle, It is possible to easily ensure a large gap between the lamp units when the rear of the vehicle is viewed directly from the seat. As a result, the risk of blind spots occurring in the rear field of view through the rear window can be further reduced.

  In the above configuration, each lamp unit constituting the lamp module located on the side opposite to the driver's seat includes a light source and a translucent member that controls transmission of light from the light source. If each of the lamp modules is configured as a member, a rear surface portion located on the vehicle rear side with respect to the light source and a side surface portion extending toward the front of the vehicle from the side edge in the vehicle width direction on the rear surface portion. The light emitting area can be further increased.

  In the above configuration, with respect to the at least one lamp unit, if the left and right widening angle toward the vehicle rear side of the side wall portion on the inner side in the vehicle width direction is set to a negative value, the vehicle rear side is directly from the driver's seat. The amount by which the rear view through the rear window when visually recognized is blocked by the lamp unit can be further reduced.

  By the way, by adopting the configuration of the present invention, even when the rear of the vehicle is viewed through the rear view mirror instead of directly from the driver's seat, the amount of shielding of the rear view through the rear window by the at least one lamp unit is generally As compared with the case of a typical lamp unit, it can be kept small.

  Therefore, if the lamp module located on the same side as the driver's seat has the same configuration as the lamp module located on the opposite side of the driver's seat with respect to the vehicle width direction, the rear of the vehicle can be visually recognized from the driver's seat through the rear mirror. When this is done, the amount of shielding of the rear view can be further reduced.

The front view which shows the vehicle lamp which concerns on one Embodiment of this invention seeing from a vehicle back II-II sectional view of FIG. Detailed view of the main part of FIG. IV-IV sectional view of FIG. The same figure as FIG. 3, showing two variations of the above embodiment

  Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a front view showing a vehicular lamp 10 according to an embodiment of the present invention as seen from the rear of the vehicle. 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along line II-II in FIG.

  As shown in these drawings, a vehicle 50 to which the vehicular lamp 10 according to the present embodiment is attached is a right-hand drive vehicle in which a driver's seat is located on the right side in the passenger compartment, and the rear end of the vehicle body 52 The rear window 60 is fitted in the opening 52a.

  The vehicular lamp 10 is a tail lamp, and includes a pair of left and right lamp modules 10L and 10R disposed toward the rear of the vehicle inside the rear window 60.

  The rear window 60 has upper and lower ends formed as a light shielding region 60B, and a horizontally long belt-like portion positioned therebetween is formed as a light transmitting region 60A. The rear window 60 is formed such that both left and right end portions thereof are greatly curved toward the vehicle front side.

  The pair of left and right lamp modules 10L and 10R have a symmetrical configuration. Therefore, in the following, the left lamp module 10L will be taken up and described in detail.

  The lamp module 10L includes three lamp units 20 that are spaced apart from each other in the vehicle width direction. These three lamp units 20 all have the same horizontal cross-sectional shape, and extend in the vertical direction so as to be substantially parallel to the left side edge shape of the rear end opening 52a of the vehicle body 52. The lamp units 20 are supported by the vehicle body 52 via common unit support members 30 at both upper and lower ends.

  These three lamp units 20 are arranged at equal intervals in the vehicle width direction, and the lamp units located on the outer side (that is, the left side) in the vehicle width direction are displaced toward the vehicle front side.

  Each of these lamp units 20 includes a plurality of light sources 22, a translucent member 24 that controls transmission of light from each of the light sources 22, and a lamp body 26 that supports the translucent member 24.

  The plurality of light sources 22 are all diodes that emit red light, and are arranged at substantially equal intervals in the vertical direction. The plurality of light sources 22 are supported by the lamp body 26 via a common light source support member 28.

  The translucent member 24 is a colorless and transparent resin member. The rear surface portion 24A is located on the vehicle rear side (the front side as the lamp unit 20) with respect to the plurality of light sources 22, and the left end of the rear surface portion 24A. And a side surface portion 24B extending toward the front of the vehicle from an edge (that is, a side edge on the outer side in the vehicle width direction).

  At that time, the rear surface portion 24A has a horizontal cross-sectional shape extending linearly in the vehicle width direction, and light emitted from each light source 22 is diffused on the front surface in the vertical and horizontal directions toward the rear of the vehicle. A plurality of diffusing lens elements 24s for this purpose are formed. On the other hand, the side surface portion 24B has a horizontal cross-sectional shape that is inclined inward in the vehicle width direction and extends linearly toward the front of the vehicle.

  The lamp body 26 has a front surface portion 26A located on the vehicle front side with respect to the plurality of light sources 22, and a side surface extending toward the vehicle rear side from the right edge (that is, the side edge on the inner side in the vehicle width direction) of the front surface portion 24A. Part 26B.

  At that time, the front surface portion 26A has a horizontal cross-sectional shape extending linearly in the vehicle width direction, and supports the light source support member 28 on the rear surface. On the other hand, the side surface portion 26B has a horizontal cross-sectional shape that is inclined outward in the vehicle width direction and extends linearly toward the rear of the vehicle, and each light source 22 is provided on the inner surface (that is, the outer surface in the vehicle width direction). A reflection surface 26r is formed which is subjected to a light reflection process for reflecting the light emitted from the vehicle outward in the vehicle width direction.

  The translucent member 24 is supported by the lamp body 26 at the right end portion of the front surface of the rear surface portion 24A and the front end surface of the side surface portion 24B.

  FIG. 3 is a detailed view of a main part of FIG.

  As shown in the figure, the inclination angle of the side surface portion 26B of the lamp body 26 with respect to the vehicle front-rear direction is set to the same value as the inclination angle of the side surface portion 24B of the translucent member 24 with respect to the vehicle front-rear direction. The right end surface 24Aa of the rear surface portion 24A of the translucent member 24 is formed to be flush with the outer surface of the side surface portion 26B of the lamp body 26, and the left end surface 26Aa of the front surface portion 26A of the lamp body 26 is formed. Is formed so as to be flush with the outer surface of the side surface portion 24B of the translucent member 24.

  Thus, each lamp unit 20 has an outer side wall 20a in the vehicle width direction and an outer side wall 20b in the vehicle width direction, both of which are outward in the vehicle width direction with respect to the axis Ax extending in the vehicle front-rear direction. Is extended at an angle θ. That is, the laterally widening angle of the side wall 20a on the outer side in the vehicle width direction toward the rear of the vehicle is set to θ, and the lateral expansion angle of the side wall 20b on the inner side in the vehicle width direction toward the rear of the vehicle is −θ. Is set.

  As shown in FIG. 1, when viewing the rear of the vehicle directly from the driver's seat (specifically, the driver's eye point P) or through the rear mirror 54, the rear view through the rear window 60 is partially left and right. It is blocked by the pair of lamp modules 10L and 10R.

  At this time, regarding the left lamp module 10L located on the opposite side of the driver's seat in the vehicle width direction, the line of sight A when viewed directly from the driver's seat is the line of sight B when viewed through the rear mirror 54. In comparison, the line of sight is from an oblique direction greatly inclined from the vehicle front-rear direction.

  2 and 3, only the line of sight A when viewed directly from the driver's seat is shown.

  As shown by a two-dot chain line in FIG. 3, instead of each lamp unit 20 constituting the left lamp module 10L, a lamp unit 2 having a pair of left and right side walls 2a, 2b extending straight toward the rear of the vehicle. Is arranged, the horizontal projection width of the lamp unit 2 when viewed directly from the driver's seat is considerably large.

  On the other hand, each lamp unit 20 constituting the lamp module 10L has an axis Ax in which the side wall 20a on the vehicle width direction outer side and the side wall 20b on the vehicle width direction inner side both extend in the vehicle front-rear direction toward the rear of the vehicle. , The projected width in the horizontal direction of the lamp unit 20 when viewed directly from the driver's seat is smaller than that in the case of the lamp unit 2. .

  Specifically, the angle range in which the field of view is shielded by each lamp unit 20 when viewed directly from the driver's seat is the angle range indicated by the hatched line in FIG. The angle range in which the field of view is blocked by is obtained by adding the angle range indicated by the two-dot chain line to the angle range indicated by the solid diagonal line in FIG. Therefore, by adopting the configuration of the present embodiment, the rear view is expanded by the angle range indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG.

  4 is a cross-sectional view taken along line IV-IV in FIG.

  In the drawing, a line of sight B when the rear view through the rear window 60 is visually recognized from the driver's seat through the room mirror 54 is shown.

  This line of sight B is also a line of sight from an oblique direction inclined left and right from the vehicle longitudinal direction. The inclination angles are substantially the same with respect to the pair of left and right lamp modules 10L and 10R.

  The three lamp units 20 constituting each of the pair of left and right lamp modules 10L and 10R are configured such that the side wall portion 20a on the outer side in the vehicle width direction and the side wall portion 20b on the inner side in the vehicle width direction both extend along the axis Ax extending in the vehicle front-rear direction. On the other hand, since it extends obliquely outward in the vehicle width direction toward the rear of the vehicle, the projected width in the horizontal direction of each lamp unit 20 when viewed from the driver's seat through the rear mirror 54 is the lamp unit 2 ( Compared with the case of FIG. 3).

  Next, the effect of this embodiment is demonstrated.

  The vehicular lamp 10 according to the present embodiment is located on the side opposite to the driver's seat in the vehicle width direction among the pair of left and right lamp modules 10L and 10R arranged toward the rear of the vehicle inside the rear window 60. The left lamp module 10L includes three lamp units 20 that are spaced apart from each other in the vehicle width direction. In this case, each lamp unit 20 has a pair of left and right side walls that extend in the vertical direction. Each of the lamp units 20 has a larger lateral expansion angle toward the rear of the vehicle than the side wall 20b on the inner side in the vehicle width direction than the side wall 20b on the inner side in the vehicle width direction. Therefore, the following operational effects can be obtained.

  That is, as each lamp unit 20 constituting the lamp module 10L on the left side, the side wall portion 20a on the outer side in the vehicle width direction is set to have a larger left / right spread angle than the side wall portion 20b on the inner side in the vehicle width direction. Thus, the amount of the rear view through the rear window 60 when the rear of the vehicle is viewed directly from the driver's seat is blocked by the lamp unit 20 is determined by the general lamp unit (that is, each of the pair of left and right side wall portions). Compared to the case of a lamp unit in which the left and right spreading angles toward the rear of the vehicle are set to the same value.

  Thereby, regarding the left lamp module 10L located on the side opposite to the driver's seat, even when the light emitting area is increased, the amount of shielding of the rear view can be reduced so that blind spots are less likely to occur. .

  Thus, according to the present embodiment, in the vehicular lamp 10 in which the pair of left and right lamp modules 10L and 10R are arranged inside the rear window 60, each lamp module 10L, The light emitting area of 10R can be increased.

  In this case, in the present embodiment, the three lamp units 20 constituting the left lamp module 10L are disposed so as to be displaced toward the front side of the vehicle as the lamp units 20 located on the outer side in the vehicle width direction. Therefore, it is possible to easily secure a large gap between the lamp units 20 when the rear of the vehicle is viewed directly. As a result, the risk of blind spots occurring in the rear field of view through the rear window 60 can be further reduced.

  Further, in this embodiment, each lamp unit 20 constituting the left lamp module 10L includes a plurality of light sources 22 and a translucent member 24 that controls transmission of light from each of the light sources 22, and The translucent member 24 includes a rear surface portion 24A located on the vehicle rear side with respect to the plurality of light sources 22, and a side surface portion 24B extending toward the vehicle front side from a side edge on the outer side in the vehicle width direction of the rear surface portion 24A. Therefore, the light emission area of each lamp module 10L, 10R can be further increased.

  At that time, each of the lamp units 20 can emit light uniformly by the plurality of diffusing lens elements 24 s formed on the rear surface portion 24 </ b> A of the translucent member 24, and the reflection formed on the side surface portion 26 </ b> B of the lamp body 26. By the surface 26r, side illumination from each lamp unit 20 to the outside in the vehicle width direction can be performed efficiently.

  In the present embodiment, the left and right widening angle toward the vehicle rear of the side wall portion 20b on the inner side in the vehicle width direction in each lamp unit 20 constituting the left lamp module 10L is set to a negative value. The amount by which the rear view through the rear window 60 when the rear of the vehicle is directly viewed can be blocked by the lamp unit 20 can be further reduced.

  Further, in the present embodiment, even when the rear of the vehicle is viewed through the rear mirror 54 instead of directly from the driver's seat, the rear view through the rear window 60 is blocked by the respective lamp units 20 constituting the left lamp module 10L. The amount can be kept small as compared with the case of a general lamp unit 20.

  At this time, also with respect to the right lamp module 10R having a left-right symmetric configuration with the left lamp module 10L, it is possible to further reduce the amount of shielding of the rear view when the vehicle rear is viewed from the driver's seat through the room mirror 54. it can.

  In the above embodiment, the three lamp units 20 constituting the lamp module 10L on the left side have been described as having the same horizontal cross-sectional shape. However, the lamp units 20 have different horizontal cross-sectional shapes. Of course it is possible.

  In the above embodiment, the three lamp units 20 constituting each of the lamp modules 10L and 10R have been described as being supported by the vehicle body 52 via the common unit support member 30 at the upper and lower ends thereof. A configuration supported by the window 60 is also possible.

  In the above embodiment, the case where the vehicular lamp 10 is a tail lamp has been described. However, even when the vehicular lamp 10 is another type of lamp such as a stop lamp or a turn signal lamp, the same configuration as that of the above embodiment is adopted. Thus, the same effect as that of the above embodiment can be obtained.

  Next, a modification of the above embodiment will be described.

Is formed. Accordingly, the light source support member 128 of the present modification is set to a value with a smaller left-right width than the light source support member 28 of the above embodiment. On the other hand, the translucent member 124 of this modification also includes a rear surface portion 124A and a side surface portion 124B, but the right end surface 124Aa of the rear surface portion 124A is flush with the outer surface of the side surface portion 126B of the lamp body 126 (that is, the front and rear of the vehicle). (Extends straight in the direction).

  With the configuration described above, the lamp unit 120 has the side wall portion 120a on the outer side in the vehicle width direction extending at an angle θ outward in the vehicle width direction toward the rear of the vehicle with respect to the axis Ax extending in the vehicle front-rear direction. The inner side wall portion 120b extends in the direction of the axis Ax extending in the vehicle front-rear direction.

  Also in this modification, a plurality of diffusing lens elements 124 s are formed on the rear surface portion 124 A of the translucent member 124, and a reflecting surface 126 r is formed on the side surface portion 126 B of the lamp body 126.

  Even when the configuration of the present modification is employed, substantially the same operational effects as in the case of the above-described embodiment can be obtained.

  Next, a second modification of the above embodiment will be described.

  FIG.5 (b) is the figure similar to FIG. 3 which shows the lamp unit 220 of this modification.

The shape is greatly different from that of the above embodiment.

  That is, the lamp body 226 of this modification includes a front surface portion 226A and a pair of left and right side surface portions 226B1, 226B2.

  Front portion 226A has a horizontal cross-sectional shape that extends linearly in the vehicle width direction. Further, the left side surface portion 226B1 has a horizontal cross-sectional shape extending linearly inclining outward in the vehicle width direction toward the rear of the vehicle, and the right side surface portion 226B2 extending in the vehicle width direction toward the rear of the vehicle. It has a horizontal cross-sectional shape that is inclined inward and extends linearly. At this time, the inclination angle of the left side surface portion 226B1 to the outside in the vehicle width direction is set to a value larger than the inclination angle of the right side surface portion 226B2 to the inside of the vehicle width direction.

  Further, flange portions 226B1f and 226B2f projecting outward are formed at the rear ends of the pair of left and right side portions 226B1 and 226B2 in the lamp body 226, respectively.

  The translucent member 224 of the present modification has a horizontal cross-sectional shape that extends linearly in the vehicle width direction, and a diffusion lens element 224s is formed on the front surface thereof.

  Flange portions 224f1 and 224f2 projecting forward are formed at the left and right ends of the front surface of the translucent member 224. The translucent member 224 is engaged with the flange portions 226B1f and 226B2f of the lamp body 226 at the flange portions 224f1 and 224f2.

  Further, the light source support member 228 of the present modification is set to a value having a smaller left-right width than the light source support member 28 of the above embodiment.

  With the configuration described above, the lamp unit 220 has the side wall portion 220a on the outer side in the vehicle width direction extending at an angle θ1 outward in the vehicle width direction toward the rear of the vehicle with respect to the axis Ax extending in the vehicle front-rear direction. The inner side wall 220b is configured to extend toward the rear of the vehicle with respect to an axis Ax extending in the vehicle front-rear direction at an angle θ2 smaller than the angle θ1 toward the vehicle width direction inner side. At this time, the angle θ1 is a straight line circumscribing the outer surface of the front end portion of the left side surface portion 226B1 of the lamp body 226 and the outer surface of the flange portion 226B1f (that is, before and after starting to shield the rear view at the side wall portion 220a of the lamp unit 220). Is a straight line that circumscribes the outer surface of the front end portion of the right side surface portion 226B2 of the lamp body 226 and the outer surface of the flange portion 226B2f. That is, an angle formed by an axis Ax extending in the vehicle front-rear direction (that is, a straight line connecting two points before and after the side wall portion 220b of the lamp unit 220 starts to shield the rear view).

  Even in the case of adopting the configuration of this modified example, the vehicle directly from the driver's seat as compared with the case where the left and right pair of side wall portions 220a and 220b are set to have the same left / right widening angle toward the vehicle rear side The amount that the rear view through the rear window 60 when the rear is viewed can be blocked by the lamp unit 220 can be reduced.

  In addition, the numerical value shown as a specification in the said embodiment and its modification is only an example, and of course, you may set these to a different value suitably.

  The invention of the present application is not limited to the configuration described in the above-described embodiment and its modifications, and a configuration with various other changes can be adopted.
