  • Patent number: 7775697
    Abstract: A vehicular lamp includes a light source positioned inside a lamp chamber. The lamp chamber is formed from a lamp body fixed to a vehicle body and a front cover that covers a front open portion thereof. The vehicular lamp includes a light guide that includes a side end surface to which light emitted from the light source is incident on one side thereof; a light-emitting surface that emits the light that is incident from the side end surface in a predetermined direction; and a reflective back surface that has a reflecting portion that faces the light-emitting surface. The light guide made from translucent material that is positioned on one side inside the light chamber following along with the shape of the lamp front cover. A plurality of stippling steps that have a generally conical shape are provided on the reflective back surface of the light guide.
