A light-transmissive cover member covering a front side of the lens part and the illumination part is attached to the housing. A wall member partitioning a space where the lens part is arranged and a space where the illumination part is arranged is provided inside the housing, and the housing has a heat transfer structure for transferring heat generated inside the housing to the cover member.
