Patent ID: 8075166

Claim:
A light comprising: a light source; and a lens body having a resin injection trace formed by injection molding, and having a plurality of surfaces, including optical surfaces including an incident surface, a reflecting surface, and a projecting surface that are configured to form a predetermined light distribution pattern, the incident surface including a lens surface configured to receive light from the light source to allow the light to enter the lens body, the reflecting surface configured to reflect the light from the light source toward the projecting surface so as to form the light distribution pattern, the projecting surface including a lens surface configured to receive the light directly from the light source and the light reflected by the reflecting surface and to project the light, and connecting surfaces that shape and define a structure of the lens body by connecting the optical surfaces, but that do not engage in the formation of the light distribution pattern, the connecting surfaces including an adjacent connecting surface surrounding the reflecting surface, and configured to have a shape that does not generate a light path from the resin injection trace via the connecting surface to the projecting surface.
