Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a vehicular lamp, and more specifically, to an improvement in the mounting structure between a lens and a molding of a vehicular lamp having a lens with a molding attached thereto.

In the case of conventional vehicle lamps, there is one in which a molding b is attached to a lens a, as illustrated in FIG. As shown in Fig. 2, this mounting structure has a fitting pin c protruding from the molding b, a hole d for passing the fitting pin c through the lens a, and a fitting pin c passed through the hole d. The molding b is attached to the lens a by welding the tip of the insertion pin c to the lens a.

However, in the conventional vehicle lamp shown above, the hole d is provided in the lens a, so when forming the lens a, a slide pin is required to form the hole d. The problem is that the process becomes complicated and the cost is high.

In view of the problems of the prior art as described above, the present invention aims to provide a vehicle lamp that can be manufactured with an inexpensive mold that does not use a slide pin.

The details of the present invention will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional view showing an embodiment in which the vehicle lamp according to the present invention is applied to a combination lamp, and FIG. 4 is an exploded perspective view of a lens and a molding.

As shown in FIG. 3, a molding 1 is attached to a lens 2, and the lens 2 is fixed to a housing 4 attached to a vehicle body 3.
It is designed to cover the gap between the

As shown in FIG. 4, the molding 1 has an abbreviated shape, and has a fitting protrusion 11 projecting laterally on the inside thereof, and an upper plate portion 12 on the inside of its upper end. is forming.

As shown in FIG. 4, the lens 2 has a support protrusion 21 formed on the surface of the inclined edge for supporting the upper plate part 12 of the molding 1, and a support protrusion 21 at a position corresponding to the insertion protrusion 11. A notch 22 through which the fitting protrusion 11 can be inserted is provided. The support protrusion 21 is provided to protrude outward, and the notch 22 is
The inclined edge of the lens 2 is cut into a substantially U-shape extending from the lower end to slightly above each support protrusion 21 .

The molding 1 and the lens 2 are arranged such that the fitting protrusion 11 is inserted into the notch 22, the upper plate part 12 of the molding 1 is supported on the support protrusion 21, and in this state, the tip of the fitting protrusion 11 is inserted. The lens 2 is assembled by being welded to the inner wall of the lens 2 by high frequency heating or the like. In addition, in Fig. 3, 5 is packing, 6
is an adhesive.

In the vehicle lamp according to the present invention, as described above, the insertion protrusion 11 of the molding 1 is passed through the notch 22 provided in the lens 2, so when molding the lens 2, it is necessary to It becomes unnecessary to use pins. That is, since the cutout portion 22 can be formed using a normal mold, it is not necessary to construct the mold structure in a sliding type, and the mold structure can be simplified accordingly.

In addition, the present invention not only provides the notch 22 but also forms the support protrusion 21 on the lens 2 that supports the upper plate part 12 of the molding, so that the support protrusion 21 supports the molding 1 during assembly. The molding 1 can be accurately positioned with respect to the lens 2, and in this state, the tip of the fitting protrusion 11 is welded to the inside of the lens and assembled, so the lens can be attached even though no pin hole is used. The molding 1 can be accurately assembled to the molding 2.

As described above, according to the present invention, the mold structure can be simplified to reduce costs, and the molding can be accurately positioned and assembled to the lens.
