Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the number of parts and to decrease the number of assembly processes and the number of installation processes by installing lamps integrally to a body with the inner surface long in the lateral direction as a reflection surface and to a front grill formed of a lens attached to the front side of the body. CONSTITUTION:A front grill and lamps 48 and 48' are incorporated, and at night, the light radiated from lamps 42 and 42' is reached to the whole body of the front side of a lens 31 in which lens steps are formed along the whole lens body, brighting the whole body of the lens 31. And, in the daytime, the external light incident through the lens 31 is reflected by the whole body of the inner surface of a body 5, as well as by reflection concaves 13 and 13', giving a feeling of a lighting apparatus as a whole. And since the inner surface of the body 5 is curved as a whole, in particular, the reflection is made efficiently toward the lens 31. Furthermore, by making the lamps 48 and 48' in an auxiliary head lamp such as a fog lamp, no trouble is given to the running even when a head lamp is cut off, and it is not necessary to install a separate lamp to the body, reducing the number of parts and decreasing the number of assembly and the number of installation processes.

In addition, during the daytime, the external light that enters through the lens 31 is reflected not only by the reflective recesses 13, 13' but also by the entire inner surface of the body 5, giving the whole body the appearance of a lamp. In particular, since the inner surface of the body 5 is entirely curved, reflection is efficiently directed toward the lens 31, and
Such a shape also contributes to ensuring the strength of the body 5.

(G. Effect of the invention) As is clear from the above description, the lamp-integrated front grill of the present invention is a lamp-integrated front grill arranged between the headlights arranged on the left and right sides of the front of the vehicle body. The body includes a body that is long from left to right and has reflective recesses that are open to the front at both left and right ends, and whose inner surface is a reflective surface; a lens attached to the body so as to cover the front surface thereof; A light bulb is attached to the recess, the body has a wider space in the lower part than the upper part in the part other than the reflective recess, the lens has a lens step formed over the entire part, and further, It is characterized in that the opening edge of the reflective recess is located at a position that does not block the light that is directly incident on the end of the lens from the light source of the light bulb.
