Abstract:
1. A vehicle lamp assembly comprising: a case formed of a low heat-resistant resin material which defines an interior space; the case including at least one partition wall defining a planar partition wall surface to partition the interior space respectively into one and another chambers, wherein the case defines an opening having opposed first and second open ends; the opening communicating with said one chamber; wherein the vehicle lamp further comprises a bulb cassette received in the opening so as to close the first open end thereof and attached to the cassette case for accommodating a light bulb within said one chamber, and a lens which covers the second open end of the opening; wherein the bulb cassette includes at least a first planar heat shield wall formed of a resin material having a heat resistance greater than the low heat-resistant resin material of the case, wherein the heat shield wall along its entire surface is in direct surface contact with the planar partition wall surface so as to shield the at least first partition wall and the other chamber from heat generated by the light bulb in the one chamber.
