Abstract
A vehicle position lamp can include a plurality of circuit boards each mounting an LED. The vehicle position lamp can also include a first inner lens having a plurality of optical plates and at least one connecting plate connecting between the adjacent optical plates and a second inner lens. An inner surface of each of the optical plates can be located adjacent the respective one of the circuit boards so that an optical axis of a diffusing lens of each of the optical plates corresponds to a substantially optical axis of each of the LEDs. The second inner lens can be located adjacent the first inner lens that can be formed in various slender curved shapes. Thus, the disclosed subject matter can provide vehicle position lamps having a high visibility that are formed in various slender curved shapes such that match headlights, which fit both front corners of a vehicle.
