的形狀係由連接信號燈燈泡5 7的燈泡中心D與延長部6 0 前端的直線Ε ;及將與内鏡片4 0之鏡面F的交點跨過前部 開口 6 4之全周所連結的交線G來決定(參照圖2 )。 信號燈燈泡5 7係配置於信號燈反射部5 6之大致中央 處,連結信號燈燈泡5 7的燈泡中心D與延長部6 0前端(信 號燈反射部5 6之前部開口 6 4的周緣)的直線Ε,係以其交 線G所包圍的範圍、亦即前信號燈3 2之發光部面積越朝前 方越寬的方式傾斜而設。利用使内鏡片4 0配置於較信號燈 反射部5 6之前部開口 6 4更前方處,將各前信號燈3 2之發 13 312/發明說明書(補件)/93-07/931 ] 1096 1253999 光部面積設為較信號燈反射部5 6之前部開口 6 4寬。然後, 利用調整内鏡片4 0與信號燈反射部5 6之前部開口 6 4之間 隙,可改變各前信號燈3 2之發光部面積或位置。 接著,說明其作用如下。 首先,在設計前信號燈3 2時,邊考慮組合燈3 0之全寬 等,邊以各前信號燈3 2之發光部中心間的距離成為指定的 設計值以上的方式來決定各前信號燈3 2之信號燈反射部 5 6的配置。在此,覆蓋各信號燈反射部5 6之前部開口 6 4 的内鏡片4 0,只要設置為至少較信號燈反射部5 6之前部 開口 6 4大即可,因此,可從與信號燈反射部5 6之前部開 口 6 4相同形狀至覆蓋前部開口 6 4周邊的内側部5 3的形狀 任意設定各内鏡片40。並且,因為藉由各内鏡片40的形 狀來決定前信號燈3 2之形狀,因此可改變各前信號燈3 2 之形狀,但無須改變信號燈反射部5 6,亦即無須改變殼體 33 〇 此時,利用調整内鏡片4 0與信號燈反射部5 6之前部開 口 6 4之間隙,可改變各前信號燈3 2之發光部面積,因此 可使各内鏡片4 0朝車寬方向内側及外側的任一側擴張,同 時,在各内鏡片4 0之車寬方向内側及外側的兩部位,利用 調整内鏡片4 0與信號燈反射部5 6之前部開口 6 4之間隙, 可邊保持各前信號燈3 2之發光部中心間的距離,邊擴大發 光部面積。 根據上述實施形態,因為僅改變内鏡片4 0,因此可抑制 成本增加,同時可獲得各前信號燈3 2之形狀改變所帶來的 14 312/發明說明_ 補件)/93-07/93111096 1253999 新穎外觀,且同時可簡單地擴大各前信號燈3 2之發光部面 積而提高辨視性,因而可實現車輛之商品性的提升及差別 化。 又,本發明並不侷限於上述實施形態,例如,可不使用 覆蓋組合燈3 0全體的外鏡片3 5,而使用分別覆蓋頭燈3 1 及各前信號燈3 2的鏡片的組合燈。 另外,也可不為將頭燈3 1作為主燈具的組合燈3 0,而 為將尾燈作為主燈具的組合燈。 上述實施形態之各燈具的形狀及構成係本發明之一 例,在未超出本發明之實質的範圍内可作適宜的改變,同 時,在不是二輪機車的三輪、四輪車輛中也可應用本發明。 (發明效果) 如上所述,根據申請專利範圍第1、2項之發明,僅改 變各前信號燈的鏡片(或内鏡片),即可抑制成本增加同時 獲得新穎外觀,且可提高前信號燈的辨視性,因此可實現 車輛之商品性的提升及差別化。 根據申請專利範圍第3項之發明,僅改變各信號燈的鏡 片,即可抑制成本增加同時獲得新穎外觀,且可提高信號 燈的辨視性,可實現車輛之商品性的提升及差別化。 根據申請專利範圍第4項之發明,利用以覆蓋其周圍的 框緣部的方式設置各前信號燈的鏡片,可對僅由鏡片覆蓋 反射部的前信號燈設計新穎的外觀,同時,可容易地確保 各前信號燈之發光部中心間的距離,且可邊保持各前信號 燈之發光部中心間的距離邊增加發光部面積,因此可實現 15

example, the front opening 6 4 of the embodiment) covers the frame edge portion at the same time. According to the combination lamp, the lens of each of the front traffic lights is extended so as to cover the frame portion between the reflection portion of the left and right front signal lamps and the reflection portion of the headlight, and the lens is placed close to the reflection portion of the headlight. Without changing the reflection portion of each of the front signal lamps, a novel appearance can be designed for the front signal lamp that covers only the reflection portion by the lens. Further, by separating the reflection portions of the left and right front signal lamps from the reflection portions of the headlights, it is possible to easily ensure the distance between the centers of the light-emitting portions of the respective front lights, and to use the lenses of the respective front lights close to the headlight side, even if The area of the light-emitting portion of each of the front lights is increased in the vehicle width direction, and the same change is applied to the outside of the lens in the vehicle width direction, so that the distance between the centers of the light-emitting portions of the two front lights can be maintained at a predetermined design value. [Embodiment] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings. As shown in Fig. 1, the front wheel 2 of the two-wheeled motor vehicle 1 is pivotally supported at the lower end portion of the front fork 3, and the front fork 3 is operatively pivotally supported by the head pipe 6 of the body frame 5 via the handlebar 4. A handle 7 is attached to the upper end of the handlebar 4, and the periphery of the handle 7 is covered by the handle cover 9 except for the respective grip portions 8, 8.
