Abstract: A reflecting member of a vehicle lamp is provided with a top coat layer formed on a silver deposited coat formed on a surface of a synthetic resin base. The top coat layer is made of a transparent acrylic resin which is synthesized with a monomer whose glass transition temperature is 60° C. or higher. The top coat layer adheres to the silver deposited coat to suppress the agglomeration of Ag atoms constituting the silver deposited coat.

Abstract: A vehicle-lamp assembly apparatus having: a lower jig (120) for supporting a workpiece (300), a jig support table (10) on which the lower jig (120) is positioned and mounted, and an upper jig (110) incorporating the lower jig (120) as a jig (100) by vertically engaging therewith, supporting any other workpiece (200) when necessary and including electric equipment (530) and (540) which functions to perform predetermined processes to the workpiece. The apparatus also includes an upper jig support plate (24) for supporting the upper jig (110) incorporated via a coupling mechanism (27) in a suspended condition, and an elevator mechanism (22) for moving up and down the upper jig support plate (24) with respect to the jig support table (10). First and second connector portions (510 and 520) are automatically joined together and separated from each other without making the worker do so by hand and this eliminates the possibility of connecting the connector portions improperly.
