That is, the height H of the side portion 110 b of the recess 110 surrounding the LED 86 is formed higher than that of the LED 86 protruding from the substrate 100. And the side part 110b located in front of LED86 among the side parts of the recessed part 110 functions as the wall part 112 which regulates the direct light of LED86. The effect of the wall 112 will be described later.

- the reflector 96 has an upper end screwed to the proximal end side of the first substrate support member 104 and a lower end extending into the space 98. Thereby, the curved surface near the lower end of the reflector 96 is arranged at a position facing the LED 86 supported downward by the first substrate support member 104.

- the base member 82 is fixed at a predetermined angle, so that the optical axis of the headlight 10 is adjusted. It can be set stably.
- the headlight 10 and the mounting structure of the headlight 10 according to the first embodiment are basically configured as described above. Next, operational effects when the headlight 10 is applied will be described. .
- the headlight 10 supports the LED 86 and the substrate 100 via the first substrate support member 104 on the upper side of the space 98 (that is, the position overlapping the overlapping portion 84b of the lens 84 in a front view). For this reason, when the headlight 10 is viewed from the front in a state where the headlight 10 is not lit, only the appearance portion 84 a is visually recognized from the opening 69 of the cover member 68. In this case, in the headlight 10, the LED 86, the substrate 100, and the first substrate support member 104 are hidden by the cover member 68 above the opening 69, and the second substrate support member 106 is hidden by the reflector 96. Only the reflector 96 extending downward from the first substrate support member 104 is visible. Therefore, even if the headlight 10 is viewed from the front, the LED 86 and the substrate 100 are not visually recognized, and the appearance of the headlight 10 can be improved.
- the headlight 10 when the headlight 10 is lit, most of the light emitted from the LED 86 goes straight to the reflector 96 and is reflected by the reflector 96 to be irradiated in the front direction of the vehicle body. On the other hand, some light beams emitted from the LED 86 and proceeding in the forward direction are blocked from traveling straight by the wall portion 112 existing in front of the LED 86. Therefore, when the headlight 10 is viewed from the front, only the light beam reflected by the reflector 96 is visible. That is, the headlight 10 can block the direct light emitted from the LED 86 while irradiating the reflected light from the reflector 96, and can surely prevent the direct light from being visually recognized while securing the light amount.
- the wall portion 112 prevents the LED 86 from being viewed.
- the visual recognition prevention range of the LED 86 is set according to the positional relationship between the LED 86 and the wall portion 112.
