A rear combination lamp includes a reflector, a tail lamp bulband a tail/stop lamp bulbattached to the reflector, and a lensdisposed rearward of the bulbsand attached to a tail lamp reflector portion. When the rear combination lamp is attached to a motorcycle, the lensis provided to be inclined obliquely rearwardly and upwardly. An upper half portion of the lensis formed to have a cut-lens portion, as a uniform-light-emission design surface, processed with projections and depressions in a vehicle width direction. A lower half portion of the lensis formed to have a clear lens portion, as a clear lens surface, disposed frontward, in a vehicle body, of an extension lineof the cut-lens portion

Rear lighting device for a vehicle

A two-wheeled motor vehicle provided with a drive shaft () rotatably supported by a swing arm () rockable on a pivot shaft (). The longitudinal center axis (J) of the drive shaft () is located below a line (C) interconnecting the pivot shaft () and an axle (). The drive shaft () is surrounded by the swing arm ().

A lens includes extended lens portions extending leftward and rightward beyond a high beam reflecting portion, respectively. The lens forms an X shape when viewed from the front, due to the extended lens portions. Paired left and right light guide members are disposed below a reference axis of a low beam bulb on lateral sides of a high beam bulb, respectively. Extension members are disposed along side edges of the lens in such a manner as to cover front sides of the light guide members, respectively. Opening portions are formed in the extension members so as to guide light from the light guide members to the extended lens portions respectively. Light from the low beam bulb is emitted to an outside through the light guide members, the opening portions, and the extended lens portions.

To improve visibility by expanding a light emitting range without increasing a size of a light source, in a lighting unit for a vehicle using a projector lamp. A front light has a projector lamp arranged behind an outer lens. A light guiding body is provided from a side surface of the projector lamp to the front. A front surface of the light guiding body emits light along a bottom surface of the front light. A first reflector and a second reflector constituting an isolated extension section extending upwards are arranged opposite to each other holding a distance between them, at a side surface of the projector lamp. The periphery of the first reflector extends out slightly more than the second reflector to form a fringe light emitting section. This causes emission of light of the light guide path in a fringe shape.

Lighting unit for vehicle

A turn signal lamp for a vehicle is provided having an improved appearance. In a front blinker including a lamp housing, an LED provided on the lamp housing, a reflector for reflecting light from the LED, and a lens fitted into an opening of the lamp housing, a reflector has a concave curved surface which functions as a reflecting surface and the LED is located in an area invisible from a direction in which light is reflected by the curved surface so that the LED is invisible through the lens from outside the front blinker.
