Abstract

A water cloud evaluating device includes a partition member for partitioning an outer space of the vehicle lighting fixture into a front space and a rear space, vehicle outside environment simulation setting means and vehicle inside environment simulation setting means. In the bench test, the water cloud evaluation is made in the artificial environment close to the state where the vehicle lighting fixture is mounted on the actual vehicle. The partition member is formed with an opening portion in a sheet that is easily cuttable by a knife or the like. A water spray unit, an illumination unit and an air flow generating unit are made movable as the simulation setting units comprising both the simulation setting means.
