A vehicle lighting device includes a socket, a substrate, at least one light emitting element, a frame part, a sealing part, and a lens. The substrate is provided on one end side of the socket. The light emitting element is provided on the substrate. The frame part surrounds the light emitting element. The sealing part is provided on an inner side of the frame part and covers the light emitting element. The lens is provided on the sealing part and includes an optical part into which a light emitted from the light emitting element enters. The optical part includes a first portion from which the light entered is emitted. The first portion protrudes to a side opposite to a sealing part side. A contour of the first portion is a substantially rectangular shape as viewed from a direction along a central axis of the optical part.

Vehicle lighting device and vehicle lamp

According to an embodiment, there is provided a vehicle luminaire including: a socket; a board provided on one end side of the socket; at least one light-emitting element provided on the board; a frame part provided on the board to surround the light-emitting element; a sealing part that is provided on an inner side of the frame part and contains a resin; and an optical element provided on the sealing part. The frame part includes at least any one of a trap provided on an outer surface to retain at least a part of the resin overflowed to an outer side of the frame part, and an inclined surface provided in an edge of an opening opposite to the board side.

Vehicle luminaire and vehicle lighting tool

A vehicle luminaire according to an exemplary embodiment includes: a socket; and a light-emitting module that is provided in on one end side of the socket, and includes only three light-emitting elements. When viewing the vehicle luminaire from a direction along a central axis, light-emitting surfaces of the three light-emitting elements have an approximately rectangular shape or an approximately square shape. At the inside of an approximately rectangular luminous region with the central axis set as the center, the three light-emitting elements are provided in parallel in a row in a direction in which short sides of the luminous region face each other.

A vehicle lighting device according to an embodiment includes: a socket; a substrate that is provided on one end portion side of the socket; a frame portion that is provided on the substrate; at least one light-emitting element that is provided in a region on an inner side of the frame portion on the substrate; a sealing portion that is provided on an inner side of the frame portion and covers the light-emitting element; and an optical element that is provided on the sealing portion. An arithmetic-average roughness value of a first surface on the sealing portion side in the optical element is greater than an arithmetic-average roughness value of a second surface of the optical element on a side opposite to the first surface.

A vehicle luminaire may include: an attachment portion which includes a concave portion opening to one end face; a light-emitting module, which includes a substrate and at least one light-emitting element provided on the substrate, provided inside the concave portion; and a plurality of bayonets provided on an outer side surface of the attachment portion. When the attachment portion is viewed from a direction along a center axis of the attachment portion, the bayonets are provided at a predetermined interval. The attachment portion includes an opening portion provided in a region between the plurality of bayonets. An opening dimension of the opening portion is larger than a width dimension of each bayonet.

Vehicle luminaire and vehicle lamp

A vehicle luminaire according to an exemplary embodiment includes: a socket; a board provided at one end of the socket; and three light-emitting elements provided on the board. A triangle formed by line segments connecting respective centers of the three light-emitting elements is scalene triangle in planar view. A center of the vehicle luminaire is included inside the scale triangle.

A vehicular luminaire according to an embodiment includes a socket; a substrate provided on one end part side of the socket; a frame part provided on the substrate; a first light-emitting element provided inside the frame part; a plurality of second light-emitting elements provided inside the frame part and around the first light-emitting element; and an optical element provided at an end part of the frame part opposite to the substrate side. A distance between the substrate and a light-emitting surface of the first light-emitting element differs from a distance between the substrate and light-emitting surfaces of the second light-emitting elements.

Vehicular luminaire and vehicular lamp

A vehicle luminaire according to an embodiment includes: an attachment portion which includes a concave portion; a light-emitting module which includes a substrate, at least one light-emitting element provided in the substrate, and a sealing portion covering the light-emitting element; and a plurality of bayonets which are provided on an outer side surface of the attachment portion. The attachment portion includes at least one light extraction portion which penetrates between an inner wall surface of the concave portion and the outer side surface of the attachment portion. In a portion provided with the bayonet in a circumferential direction of the attachment portion, a distance between a bottom surface of the concave portion and an end portion on the side of the bottom surface of the light extraction portion is smaller than a distance between the bottom surface and a top portion of the sealing portion.
