Patent number: 9522630Abstract: A vehicular display apparatus is provided with an ambient-light luminous region that surrounds an outer periphery of a display region. An ambient light source emits light, which is then guided by an ambient-light guide body into an acrylic cylindrical body. The guided light is then outputted from a light output end face of the acrylic cylindrical body towards a light output direction. The light output end face forms the ambient-light luminous region. The vehicular display apparatus includes a light collection structure that collects an output light, which is outputted from the light output end face, towards the light output direction. Collecting the output light towards the light output direction enables the reduction of a light leakage to a direction different from the light output direction, improving an outputted luminance of the ambient-light luminous region.Type: GrantFiled: June 3, 2014Date of Patent: December 20, 2016Assignees: DENSO CORPORATION, Honda Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Yasuhiro Kobayashi, Ryo Kunitachi, Shinji Kamon
