  • Patent number: 6416202
    Abstract: An outer peripheral wall 14b1 of an attachment groove 14b of a lamp body 14 is branched for vard into two branch walls 14b1A, 14b1B in the portion located on the side of a right end 16A of a front lens 16. Thus, the inner branch wall 14b1A can be set to have such a relatively small open angle that can prevent a sealant 20 from running off onto its outer periphery upon insertion of an attachment leg 16a into the attachment groove 14b, whereas the outer branch wall 14b1B can be set to have a large open angle according to the requirements of the lamp design and the like.
