Abstract
An emergency light includes a chemiluminescent light stick which can be easily operated to illuminate and taken out. When an operating lever is pushed, an engaging portion of a pivoting member pushes the bottom portion of the chemiluminescent light stick toward a wall surface. The chemiluminescent light stick has on the top end thereof a head secured to a holding hook of a holding member. The chemiluminescent light stick can be easily bent to illuminate by the lever principle with the protuberance of a case body serving as a fulcrum and the engaging portion serving as the point of action. When the operating lever is further pushed, the top end of the pivoting member protrudes frontward to open a top cover, and at the same time, the holding member which has been restricted by the pivoting member is released and it moves upward by the urging force of a flat spring and the pressing force applied by the head of the chemiluminescent light stick, thus enabling the chemiluminescent light stick to be removed.
