Abstract: A vehicular headlamp in which a light source and an actuator are connected to a power source using the minimum number of parts, lamp body waterproofing and dustproofing are assured, and each connector is firmly secured to the lamp body of the headlamp. The headlamp includes the actuator for operating a light distribution changing device that changes the distribution of light emitted from the light source. A hookup connector which is provided with a connection portion connected to a power side connector provided on a power cord connected to a vehicle power source at one end thereof and a connection portion connected to the light source side connector and the actuator side connector at the other end thereof is mounted in a hole formed in the lamp body. The hookup connector has a flange which covers the periphery of the opening.

Abstract: A vehicle indicator lamp is described that radiates red light and which has a superior sense of transparency and an excellent appearance. The lamp includes a cylindrical red transparent cap around a light-source bulb with respect to a lamp chamber for a rear fog lamp. A reflective surface forms the rear portion of the lamp chamber and diffuses and reflects light from the light-source bulb. A portion of a front lens is formed of a colorless transparent lens. When the lamp chamber is observed from the front, the reflective surface is visible through the colorless transparent lens and the red color of the red transparent cap can be seen reflected on the entire surface of the reflective surface or a part thereof. As a result, the sense of transparency of the lamp fixture is improved and the vehicle indicator lamp exhibits a novel appearance compared with that of conventional lamps having a single front red lens.

Abstract: A vehicular lamp including a lamp body having a U-shaped recess portion defining a lamp chamber and an opening; a light source disposed in the lamp chamber; a lens covering the opening of the lamp body; a fish-eye lens portion formed of at least one fish-eye lens; a cylindrical lens portion formed of at least one cylindrical lens, the fish-eye lens portion and the cylindrical lens portion arranged on a surface of the lens with a thickness of the fish-eye lens portion being substantially equal to a thickness of the cylindrical lens portion.
