Patent ID: 10281103

Abstract:
A lens body is provided which is disposed in front of a light source and configured to emit light forward from the light source along a forward/rearward reference axis extending in a forward/rearward direction of a vehicle, the lens body including an incidence part; a first reflecting surface configured to totally reflect light entering from the incidence part; a second reflecting surface configured to totally reflect at least some of the light totally reflected by the first reflecting surface; and a light emitting surface, wherein the first reflecting surface includes an elliptical spherical shape rotatably symmetrical with respect to a major axis extending in the forward/rearward direction, in first and second focal points constituted by the elliptical shape of the first reflecting surface, the second focal point disposed at a rear side between the first and second focal points is disposed in the vicinity of the light source, the second reflecting surface extends rearward from a point spaced a predetermined distance from the first focal point in an upward direction, and, among the light totally reflected by the first reflecting surface, light reaching the light emitting surface without being reflected by the second reflecting surface and light reaching the light emitting surface after being totally reflected by the second reflecting surface are emitted from the light emitting surface to be radiated forward.
