A display device for a transportation includes: a display unit displaying a display image on front and rear face sides, the display images displayed on the rear face side being in mirror image relationship with each other; and an optical member for inverting the display image displayed on the rear face side; wherein the display image displayed on the front face side is directly seen by a driver and the display image displayed on the rear face side is inverted by the optical member, so as to see in the same direction of the display image displayed on the front face side. The above display unit may be constituted by a light source having plural color spectra; an attenuation filter in which a transmittance for light emitted from the light source can be partly changed by an external signal; and a transparent light guide plate which guides light emitted from the light source to at least one of front and rear faces of the attenuation filter.

Vehicular display device for directly and indirectly displaying

The connector is structured such that a spring piece member 30 supported by a male side connector housing 10 can be compressed in the two directions of the sliding motion of the connector when the connector is mounted and removed, a seesaw type lever piece member 40 disposed so as to be seesawable in the sliding direction of a female connector housing 20 can be inclined forwardly and backwardly into engagement with the two end portions of the spring piece member 30, and the seesaw type lever piece member 40 can be inclined according to the fitted state of the connector by a waiting side guide projection piece 17 and a movable side guide 45 respectively provided in the male side and female side connector housings 10 and 20. Thanks to this structure, resilient forces respectively to pull back and push out the two connector housings in a half fitted state can be obtained from the same elastic member, that is, the spring piece member 30, and engagement and disengagement between the seesaw type lever piece member 40 and the spring piece member 30 can be achieved within a small operation range, which makes it possible to realize a compact and half fitted connector.
