A saddle riding vehicle includes a light emitting device (), an object information acquisition device (), a control board () and an accommodating case (). The light emitting device () radiates light to an outer side of the vehicle, and the object information acquisition device () acquires information of an object outside the vehicle. The control board (), to which the light emitting device () is attached, controls the light emitting device. The accommodating case () accommodates the light emitting device (), the object information acquisition device (), and the control board (). The object information acquisition device () is supported by the control board ().

Saddle-type vehicle

A lighting apparatus disposition structure for a saddle riding vehicle by which a traveling performance can be improved is disclosed. A lighting apparatus includes a laser element, a first light guide member and a second light guide member, a front light emission unit and a rear light emission unit, and a driver unit. The laser element and the driver unit are integrated as a light source unit. The light source unit is disposed between a head pipe that includes a steering axis for a front wheel and a pivot shaft that supports a rear wheel through a swing arm.

Lighting apparatus disposition structure for saddle riding vehicle

A headlight device for a saddled vehicle includes an LED light source and a mechanism which enlarges an illumination range upward in a turning direction at the time of turning traveling. The mechanism includes, at a position on an outer side, in the vehicle width direction, of a high-beam reflector that reflects forward emitted light from a high-beam, an outer reflection section that reflects the emitted light further upward than the direction of emission of the high-beam reflector. The outer reflection section is provided on at least one of left and right high-beam reflectors, and is configured to be covered by an extension serving as a decorative part, in front view of the vehicle body.

Headlight device for saddled vehicle

To provide a lighting apparatus arrangement for a saddle riding vehicle, allowing a predetermined illumination distance and illumination range of laser light to be easily achieved. A lighting apparatus includes a laser device, a first light guide, and a front-portion light emitting unit. The laser device emits laser light. The first light guide guides light from the laser device to any desired position. The front-portion light emitting unit is disposed at a distal end of the first light guide and irradiates areas around a vehicle with light from the first light guide. The front-portion light emitting unit is disposed at a position higher in level than a lower end of a meter unit disposed at a front portion of a vehicle body.

A headlight for a two-wheeled motor vehicle is provided in which disposed in a single housing are a high beam headlamp light source, low beam headlamp light sources that are disposed on the left and right of the high beam headlamp light source, a high beam headlamp reflector, low beam headlamp reflectors that are disposed on left and right sides of the high beam headlamp reflector and are formed integrally with the high beam headlamp reflector, and a position lamp light source, wherein a light guide member that guides light from the position lamp light source and makes the light shine forward is extendingly disposed so as to surround a lateral end, excluding a section adjacent to the high beam headlamp reflector, of the low beam headlamp reflector. This enables visibility and conspicuousness to be improved.

Headlight for two-wheeled motor vehicle

In a rear combination lamp for a vehicle in which a tail lamp light source and a stop lamp light source are covered from the rear of the vehicle with an outer lens, the tail lamp light source and the stop lamp light source are covered with a first inner lens, and a second inner lens that is subjected to processing so as to have a lower light transmittance than that of the first inner lens and so that diffused light is formed for covering the first inner lens from the rear of the vehicle in a region in which at least the first inner lens and the tail lamp light source overlap when viewed from the rear of the vehicle while avoiding a region in which at least the first inner lens and the stop lamp light source overlap when viewed from the rear of the vehicle.

Rear combination lamp for vehicle

In a headlight of a motorcycle, a holder, first light sources and second light sources are arranged inside a lamp unit. The lamp unit is formed with a housing and an outer lens. The first light sources are main low beam light sources supported by the holder. The second light sources are subordinate low beam light sources that are supported independently by a housing other than the holder, the housing not permitting adjustment of the optical axis, and produce a smaller amount of light than the first light sources.

Vehicle lamp

A vehicle light device structure includes a headlight, a blinker, a front cover, and a light shielding plate. The blinker includes a light source, a reflector, and a blinker lens. The light shielding plate is to block, among light emitted from the blinker, part of the light emitted towards the headlight. The blinker inner space is formed by fixedly supporting the blinker lens by the reflector. Part of the blinker inner space bulges to a more outer side than the second side in the front view and is covered by the front cover. The light shielding plate is arranged inside the blinker lens and is fixedly supported by a light shielding plate support part arranged in a bulging space which is the part of the blinker inner space.

A single board is adaptable to lamps for a vehicle of various designs. A lamp for a vehicle includes: an LED light source; a board having a mounting portion on which the LED light source is mounted; and a reflector member which is arranged such that the reflector member covers the LED light source, the reflector member reflecting light emitted from the LED light source with the directivity, wherein the mounting portion is formed of a plurality of mounting portions which are arranged at least in one direction out of the vehicle longitudinal direction and the vehicle lateral direction such that the arrangement of the LED light source is selectable from plural kinds of arrangements, and the reflector member is detachably attached to the board such that the reflector member having a shape corresponding to the arrangement of the LED is selectable.

Lamp for vehicle

A lighting device for a motorcycle includes a first lamp, a second lamp, a first outer proximate portion, and a first inner proximate portion. The first outer proximate portion is provided on one of first and second lenses and extends toward another of the first and second lenses along a surface of said one of the first and second lenses. The first inner proximate portion is provided on said one of the first and second lenses and extends toward said another of the first and second lenses. A first gap is provided between the first outer proximate portion and said another of the first and second lenses. A second gap is provided between the first inner proximate portion and said another of the first and second lenses. The second gap is smaller than the first gap.
