Abstract
A light fixture unit can include a light source having an optical axis and a light guide body. The light guide body can include a light incident portion at a front of the light source protruding from a first surface, a light exit portion formed to be elongated in a first direction on a second surface, and a light guide portion. The light incident unit can be configured to make light enter into the light guide body while converting the light into parallel light in a second direction. The light guide portion can include second reflection surfaces disposed to provide a recess on the second surface, each of which is inclined at 45 degrees with respect to the optical axis outward in the first direction individually, and third reflection surfaces which make light reflected internally on the second reflection surfaces in the first direction reflected internally in the second direction toward the light exit portion.
