Patent number: 11506523Abstract: In a light guide pointer, a vertex portion of a light control space is located on a sub-pointer portion side with respect to a center axis of a light entrance shaft, providing appropriate luminance balance between a main pointer portion and the sub-pointer portion. The light control space includes a circular arc portion, thereby broadening diffusion range of light that has passed through the light control space and preventing attenuation of light traveling along inclined portions. A center of the circular arc portion is located on the main pointer portion side with respect to the center axis, allowing strong light that has entered the light control space from the vertex portion to be diffused more. Local focusing and/or attenuation of light can be prevented, while providing appropriate luminance balance between the main pointer portion side and the sub-pointer portion side, thereby reducing luminance unevenness at the light emitting face.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2020Date of Patent: November 22, 2022Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventors: Yasufumi Mochizuki, Terukazu Kuboyama, Ami Shibahara

Patent number: 11150117Abstract: A light guide pointer and a light emitting pointer device which can reduce luminance unevenness at a light emitting face are provided. A lower face of a main pointer portion includes a separating face extending away from a light emitting face, thus light reflected by a front inclined portion of a light control space, that is not likely to travel in a direction away from the light emitting face, is not likely to reach to a corner which is a boundary between the separating face and a recessed portion. Consequently, light is not likely to be reflected by the corner between the separating face and the recessed portion, thereby preventing luminance to be partially high at the light emitting face and thereby reducing luminance unevenness.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2020Date of Patent: October 19, 2021Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventors: Yasufumi Mochizuki, Terukazu Kuboyama, Ami Shibahara

Patent number: 11105661Abstract: A light emitting pointer device which can reduce luminance unevenness at a light emitting face is provided. An annular rib is provided between a first holding portion holding an emission shaft and a second holding portion holding a light entrance shaft and the annular rib thereby covers a corner of the light entrance shaft. As a result, the light is not likely to enter a pointer body from the corner of the light entrance shaft, thereby reducing stray light and reducing luminance unevenness. An upper face of the annular rib on the light entrance shaft side has a radius of curvature that is greater than a radius of curvature of the corner of the light entrance shaft and is tapered, thus the corner can be easily covered with a space between the light entrance shaft and the annular rib.Type: GrantFiled: June 26, 2020Date of Patent: August 31, 2021Assignee: YAZAKI CORPORATIONInventors: Yasufumi Mochizuki, Terukazu Kuboyama, Ami Shibahara, Takuya Ishizawa
