    BAR LIGHT GUIDE AND VEHICLE LAMP
    TECHNOLOGICAL BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
    1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to bar-shaped light guides. The present invention further relates to vehicle lamps for use, for example, in vehicles, such as motor vehicles.
    2. Description of the Related Art [0002] To date, a vehicle lamp is known which includes a light source and a light guide arranged to receive light emitted by the light source at d f a surface d end of it. This light guide allows the light guided therein to be emitted towards the front of the vehicle through an exit surface extending in a direction in which the light guide extends. In the light guide, several reflecting facets are formed in a surface opposite the exit surface, and these reflecting facets reflect the light guided in the light guide towards the exit surface (see, for example, Publication of the international patent application No. 2014/199563).
    [0003] As described in the Publication of the international patent application No. 2014/199563, a general concept is that reflective elements of irregular shape,
    ..
    called facets, must be formed on a surface opposite to an exit surface extending in the direction in which the light guide extends, so as to allow the light to be emitted effectively with the desired uniformity through the exit surface.
    SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the foregoing, and is intended to provide a new light guide in the form of a bar which allows light to be emitted through a peripheral surface n having no irregular surface shape, such as facets, and providing a vehicle lamp including one. bar-shaped light guide.
    To resolve the above problem, a light guide in the form of a bar according to one aspect of the present invention is configured to allow at least part of the light incident on a light incidence surface to be emitted at across a peripheral surface. The bar-shaped light guide includes a light guide portion extending in a longitudinal direction of the bar-shaped light guide, and formed of a first material and a light portion extending in the longitudinal direction of the light guide in the form of a bar, along the light guide portion, and formed of a second material. The second material has a haze value greater than a haze value of the first material.
    According to this aspect, the bar-shaped light guide includes the light guide part and the light part each extending in the longitudinal direction of the bar-shaped light guide, and the light part is formed by a material having a light scattering property greater than that of the material of the light guide portion. Therefore, the light which propagates in the light guide part diffuses when entering the light part. The scattered light can be emitted through the peripheral surface of the light guide. As a result, the bar-shaped light guide allows light to be emitted through the peripheral surface, even without the shape of an irregular surface, such as a facet, formed in the peripheral surface.
    The haze value of the first material can be less than 1%, when the haze value is measured with the thickness of the first material set at 4 mm.
    The haze value of the second material can be at least 7%, when the haze value is measured with the thickness of the second material set at 4 mm.
    The haze value of the second material can be at most 30%, when the haze value is measured with the thickness of the second material set at 4 mm.
    A proportion of an area of the light portion relative to a total area of a section of the bar-shaped light guide, along a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction thereof, may differ at different positions in the bar-shaped light guide in the longitudinal direction thereof.
    A proportion of an area of the light portion relative to a total area of a section of the light guide in the form of a bar, along a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction thereof, can increase as a distance from the light incident surface increases in the longitudinal direction of the bar-shaped light guide.
    A section of the bar-shaped light guide along a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction thereof may have a polygonal shape, a circular shape, and a shape in which a polygon and a circle are combined.
    The second material may contain a light scattering agent, and the first material may contain no agent. light scattering, or may contain the light scattering agent at a lower concentration than the second material.
    The bar-shaped light guide can be molded in one piece.
    No facet serving as a reflecting element can be formed in the peripheral surface of the bar-shaped light guide.
    The peripheral surface of the bar-shaped light guide 25 may include a facet serving as a reflective element.
    Γ.
    The bar-shaped light guide can be configured so that the light part emits more attenuated light. level of a position closer to the light incidence surface, and emits brighter light at a position farther from the. light incidence surface.
    One aspect of the present invention provides a vehicle lamp. The vehicle lamp may include the bar-shaped light guide according to any of the above aspects. The light guide portion may have a first light exit surface forming part of the peripheral surface, and the light portion may have a second light exit surface constituting another part of the. peripheral surface. The bar-shaped light guide can be arranged such that one of the first light-emitting surface and the second light-emitting surface faces the front of the vehicle lamp.

    a vehicle lamp according to one embodiment. Fig. 2 is a sectional view of the vehicle lamp illustrated in FIG.
    1, taken along line A-A. Fig. 3A is a sectional view of a bar-shaped light guide in the vehicle lamp illustrated in FIGS. 1 and 2, taken along line Bl-Bl. Fig.

    A vehicle lamp 100 is used as a clearance lamp mounted in a front part of a vehicle, for example. The vehicle lamp 100 includes a lamp body 102 having an opening and an outer cover 104 transmitting the light. which covers the opening in the lamp body 102. The lamp body 102 and the outer cover 104 form a lamp space 106, a light source 108 and a bar-shaped light guide (also referred to simply, after, light guide)
    110 are housed in the lamp space 106. The light source
    108 and the light guide 110 are fixed to the lamp body 102.
    The light source 108 is. a light emitting diode (LED), for example. Alternatively, the light source 108 may be a laser diode (LD), another light-emitting semiconductor element, such as an organic or inorganic light-emitting element (EL), an incandescent lamp, a halogen lamp, a lamp with discharge, or the like.
    In this embodiment, the light guide 110 extends in a curve along a curved shape of the lamp body 102 and the outer cover 104. The shape of the light guide 110 is however not particularly limited, and the light guide 110 may extend linearly, for example. The direction (longitudinal direction) in which the light guide 110 extends substantially follows the transverse direction of the vehicle, but this is not a limiting example. In Figs. 1 and 2, the transverse direction of the vehicle corresponds to the right-left direction. The section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is rectangular in the present embodiment. This is not, however, a limiting example, and the indicated section may have a circular shape or any other shape.
    In the present embodiment, the light guide 110 has an end surface serving as a light incidence surface 110a, another end surface 110b, and a peripheral surface 110c, which connects the two surfaces. end. The light source 108 is arranged to oppose the light incidence surface 110a. The light guide 110 is arranged so that the light incidence surface 110a is located outside, in the transverse direction of the vehicle, and the other end surface 110b is located inside, in the transverse direction of the vehicle. The light guide 110 is configured to allow at least some of the light incident on the light incident surface 110a. to be emitted through the peripheral surface 110c.
    The light guide 110 includes a light guide part 112 extending in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, and a light part 114 extending in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, along the light guide portion 112. The light guide portion 112 and the light portion 114 are bonded to each other at an interface 116. The light guide portion 112 has a first exit surface light 118 constituting a part of the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide 110.
    The light portion 114 has a second light exit surface 120 constituting a portion of the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide 110. As described above, the light guide 110a. a rectangular section in the present embodiment. Thus, the first light exit surface 118 is a side surface of the light guide 110, and the second light exit surface 120 is another side surface of the light guide 110, opposite the first surface light exit 118. The light guide 110 is arranged so that the first light exit surface 118 is oriented towards the front of the lamp.
    The light guide part 1.12 is formed from a first material, and the light part 114 is formed from a second material. The first material is, for example, a resin material which does not contain any light scattering agent. The first resin material is a resin material having a light transmitting property, or a thermoplastic resin or a thermosetting, transparent resin, such as polycarbonate resin or acrylic resin. The second material is a second resin material which contains a light diffusing agent. The second resin material is a resin material having an optical property (eg, refractive index) identical to that of the first resin material, and may be a material identical to the first resin material. The first material may contain a light scattering agent at a concentration lower than that of the second material.
    In this embodiment, the light guide 15 110 is molded in one piece. The light guide 110 can be manufactured by a well-known or similar double-color molding process, using the first material and the second material.
    Examples of the light scattering agent include a metal oxide particle, such as a titanium dioxide particle. The average size of the titanium dioxide particle is, for example, from 150 nm to 500 nm., Preferably, from 160 nm to 450 nm, more preferably, from 170 nm to 450 nm, even more preferably, from 200 nm to 400 nm, and, in particular preferably, from 220 nm to 400 nm. The content of the light-diffusing agent is, for example, from 0.1 ppm by mass to 100 ppm by mass, relative to the total mass of the light part 114, preferably from 0.1 ppm by mass to 50 ppm by mass, and more preferably from 0.1 ppm by mass to 10 ppm by mass. The proportion of transformation of rutile in the particle of titanium dioxide is, for example, at least 50% by mass, preferably, at least 60% by mass, more preferably, at least 70% by mass, and even more preferably, at least 90% by mass. The light portion 114 may contain another monomer which can be copolymerized with a primary monomer of a resin used inside or a typical additive, such as an anti-static agent, an antioxidant, a release agent, a flame retardant, a lubricant, a flow enhancing agent, a filler, or a light stabilizer.
    The second material has a haze value greater than the haze value of the first material. When the haze value is measured with the thickness of the first material set at 4 mm, the light guide portion 112, in at least part of it, has a haze value in the thickness direction between 0% and less than 7% and preferably between 0% and less than 1% (eg, 0%). When the haze value is measured with the thickness of the second material fixed at 4 mm, the light part 114, in at least part of it, has a haze value in the thickness direction, between 7 % and 30%, The haze values of the light guide portion 112 and the light portion 114 can be measured using the HZ-2 turbidimeter (manufactured by Suga Test Instruments Co., Ltd.) according to JIS K7136 .
    The peripheral surface 110c: of the light guide 110 does not include an irregularly shaped reflective element, called a facet. The peripheral surface 110c has a smooth shape along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. [0033] FIG. 3A illustrates a section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, at a position close to the light incidence surface 110a in the longitudinal direction. Fig. 3B illustrates a section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, at a position remote from the light incidence surface 110a in the longitudinal direction.
    As can be seen in Figs. 2, 3A, and 3B, in the present embodiment, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction increases when the distance from the light incidence surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. In an example of determining the proportion of the surface as such, a depth D2 of the light part 114 between the interface 116 and the second light-emitting surface 120 is minimal at the light incidence surface 110a, increases progressively as the distance from the light incidence surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, and is maximum at the other end surface 110b.
    In addition, the proportion of the area of the light guide portion 112 relative to the total area of the section along a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, is smaller when the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. In an example of determining the proportion of the area as such, a depth DI of the light guide portion 112 between the interface 116 and the first light-emitting surface 118 is maximum at the light incidence surface 110a, gradually decreases when the distance from the light incidence surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110 , and is minimal at the other end surface 110b.
    The total area of the section of the light guide 110, along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, is constant in the longitudinal direction, in the present embodiment, but this example is not limiting. The cross section of the light guide 110 can vary in the longitudinal direction.
    [0037] FIG. 2 illustrates a light beam L1 coming from the light source 108, emitted by the light guide 110. The light emitted by. The light source 108 enters. The light guide part 112 through the light incidence surface 110a of the light guide 110. The light which has entered the light guide part 112 is guided inside the light guide part 112, and enters the light part 114 through the interface 116. light that has entered the light portion 114 is scattered by the light scattering agent, dispersed in the light portion 114. Part of the scattered light is deflected to the first light exit surface 118, and another part of the scattered light is deflected to the second light output surface 120. Light that has been deflected to the first light output surface 118 is emitted forward from the lamp.
    As described above, according to the embodiment, the light guide 110 includes the light guide part 112 and the light part 114, each extending in the longitudinal direction, the light guide part 112 is formed from the first material, the light portion 114 is formed from the second material, and the haze value of the second material is greater than the haze value of the first material. With this configuration, the vehicle lamp 100 allows the first light exit surface 118 of the light guide 110, as a whole, to emit light through. The light guide 110 can allow light to be emitted through the peripheral surface 110c, even without the form of an irregular surface, such as a facet, provided inside.
    In the light guide 110, the haze value of the first material forming the light guide part 112 is less than 1%, when the haze value is measured with the thickness of the first material set at 4 mm, . Since the first material is very transparent, the. light guide portion 112 can effectively guide the light in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. The dimension of the light guide 110 in the longitudinal direction can therefore be further extended.
    In the light guide 110, the haze value of the second material, forming the light portion 114 is not less than 7% when the haze value is measured with the thickness of the second material set at 4 mm. . The second material is not completely non-transparent, and has a certain degree of light transmissibility. This makes it possible to provide the light guide 110 with appropriate transparency. The combination of the light guide portion 112 and the light portion 114 allows the light guide 110, as a whole, to emit weak light.
    The proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is greater when the distance from the incidence surface of light 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. Generally, the amount of light propagating in the light guide portion 112 decreases as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases. In the present embodiment, however, the light portion 114 becomes larger as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases. The light becomes more intense where the thickness of the light part 114 is greater, and the light becomes less intense where the thickness of the light part 114 is less, which allows the light guide 110 to uniformly emit the light over its entire longitudinal direction.
    In the vehicle lamp 100, the light guide 110 is arranged such that the first light incidence surface 118 is oriented towards the front of the lamp. In this way, the vehicle lamp 100 including a bar-shaped light guide, having no reflective facet, can be provided.
    [0043] FIG. 4 is a schematic sectional view illustrating a vehicle lamp according to another embodiment. Fig. 5A is a sectional view of a bar-shaped light guide in the vehicle lamp illustrated in FIG. 4, taken along the line Cl-Cl. Fig. 5B is a sectional view of the bar-shaped light guide in the vehicle lamp illustrated in Figure 4, taken along the line C2-C2.
    As illustrated in FIG. 4, the light guide 110 is arranged so that the second light exit surface 120 is oriented towards the front of the lamp. Fig. 4 illustrates a light beam L2 coming from the light source
    108, and emitted by the light guide 110. The light emitted by the light source 108 enters the light guide portion 112 through the light incident surface 110a. The light that has entered the light guide portion 112 is guided inside the light guide portion 112, and enters the light portion 114 through the interface 116. The light that has entered the portion light 114 is diffused by the light scattering agent, dispersed in the light part 114. Part of the scattered light is deflected to the first light-emitting surface 118, and another part of the scattered light is deflected to the second light-emitting surface 120. The light that has been deflected to the second surface Light output 120 is emitted to the front of the lamp. With this configuration also, the light guide 110 allows light to be emitted through the peripheral surface 110c, even without the shape of an irregular surface, such as a facet, provided inside. Vehicle lamp 100 including a bar-shaped light guide, having no reflective facet, can be provided.
    As can be seen in Figs. 4, 5A, and 5B, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is greater when the distance from the light incidence surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. This allows the light guide 110 to emit light uniformly over its entire longitudinal direction. [0047] FIG. 6 is a schematic sectional view illustrating a vehicle lamp according to another embodiment. As illustrated in Fig. 6, a light guide 110 may include a side branch portion 122 having a light incident surface 110a. The side branch portion 122 is connected to the light guide portion 112 or the light portion 114, at an intermediate portion, in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, or at a desired position. A light source 108 for making light incident on the light incident surface 110a is arranged to oppose the light incident surface 110a of the side branch portion 122. A plurality of combinations of side branch portions 122 and. 108 light sources can be provided. Also in this way, the vehicle lamp including a bar-shaped light guide, having no reflective facet, can be provided.
    Figs. 7A to 7D illustrate other examples of the light guide 110, according to one embodiment, and variations in the thickness of the light guide part 112 and the light part 114, in the longitudinal direction of the light guide. light 110, are illustrated. In Figs. 7A to 7D, the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110 corresponds to the right-left direction. In addition, in Figs. 7A to 7D, the light guide 110 is shown as having a linear shape to facilitate descriptions, but this is not a limiting example, and the light guide 110 can extend in a curve, as in the modes of previous achievements.
    The proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide
    110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction may differ at different positions in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. The depth D2 of the light part 114, from the interface 116, can differ 10 at different positions in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. The light becomes more intense where the thickness of the light part 114 is greater, and the light becomes less intense where the thickness of the light part 114 is less. Thus, the amount of light can be adjusted according to the position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction.
    The proportion of the area of the light guide portion 112 to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction may differ at different positions in the guide of light 110, in its longitudinal direction.
    The depth D1 of the light guide portion 112, from the interface 116, can differ at different positions in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. With this configuration, the amount of light can be adjusted according to the position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction.
    As illustrated in FIG. 7Ά, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction may be less when the distance from the incidence surface of light 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. The depth D2 of the light part 114 between the interface 116 and the second light exit surface 120 can take a maximum value D2max at the light incidence surface 110a, gradually decrease as the distance from the light incidence surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, and take a minimum value D2min at the other end surface 110b. In this example, the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is constant, regardless of the position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. Therefore, the depth DI of the light guide portion 112 between the interface 116 and the first light exit surface 118 is minimum at the light incidence surface 110a, gradually increases as the distance from the surface d the incidence of light 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, and is maximum at the other end surface 110b.
    The position in the longitudinal direction at which the proportion of the area of the light part 114 is maximum (or minimum) is not limited to one end of the light guide 110. As illustrated in FIG. 7B, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 in relation to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction may be maximum at a given position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. The depth D2 of the light portion 114 between the interface 116 and the second light exit surface 120 may be maximum at an intermediate position in the longitudinal direction, between the light incidence surface 110a and the other end surface 110b. Alternatively, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 to the total area of the. section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction can be minimal at a given position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. In addition, the position in the longitudinal direction at which the proportion of the area of the light guide portion 112 (e.g., the depth DI of the light guide portion 112, between the interface 116 and the first light exit surface 118) is maximum (or minimum) is also not limited to one end of the light guide 110.
    The light guide portion 112 need not extend over the entire length of the light guide 110 in the longitudinal direction, and there may be a region in which the light guide portion 112 is not present. Here, the light part 114 extends over the entire length of the light guide 110, in the longitudinal direction, and there can be a region in which the light part 114 is not present. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 7C, the light guide .110 may include only the light guide portion 112 and may not include the light portion 114 to the. light incidence surface 110a and in the vicinity thereof. The light guide 110 may include only the light portion 114 and may not include the light portion 112 at the other end surface 110b and in the vicinity thereof.
    It is not essential that the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 varies progressively (that is, continuously) in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. As illustrated in FIG. 7D, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the cross section of the light guide 110, along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, may vary discontinuously in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110 and may, for example, gradually increase as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110.
    The depth D2 of the light part 114, between the interface 116 and. the second light exit surface 120 can vary gradually. The proportion of the area of the light guide portion 112 (e.g., the depth D1 of the light guide portion 112, between the interface 116 and the first light exit surface 118) may also vary discontinuously (eg, progressively) in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. FIG. 7D illustrates a case of variation in two stages, but the proportion indicated can also vary in three or more stages.
    The proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along one. plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, can be constant regardless of the position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. The thickness of the light portion 114 from the interface 116 can be constant in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. In addition, the proportion of the area of the light guide portion 1'12 to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction can be constant regardless of the. position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. The thickness of the light guide portion 112 from the interface 116 may be constant in the. longitudinal direction of light guide 110.
    In the previous examples, the depth D2 of the light part 114 from the interface 116 is modified to vary the proportion of the area of the light part 114, but this is not a limiting example. The indicated depth D2 can be considered as a dimension of the light part 114 in a first direction, in the section along a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. In one embodiment, instead of the dimension of the light portion 114 in the first direction, or in addition to the dimension of the light portion 114 in the first direction, a dimension of the light portion 114 in a second direction orthogonal to the first direction may vary in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. The dimension of the light part 114 in the second direction can also be referred to as the thickness of the light part 114. As such, in one embodiment, the thickness of the light part 114 can be modified in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110 to make the proportion of the area of the light part 114 differ relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, at different positions in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction.
    As illustrated in FIG. 8Ά, the thickness of the light part 114 can gradually increase when the distance from the light incidence surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. In one example, the light part 114 can have a first thickness T1 on one side towards the light incidence surface 110a, and a second thickness T2 on one side towards the other end surface 110b. The second thickness T2 is greater than the first thickness Tl. In this way, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction may gradually increase as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110.
    According to a variant, as illustrated in Here FIG. 8B, a thickness T of the light part 114 may gradually increase when the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. In one example, the thickness T of the light part 114 may be minimum from the light incident surface 110a, gradually increase as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, and be maximum at the other end surface 110b .
    The section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction can take different other forms. Examples will be described below.
    As illustrated in FIGS. 9A and 9B, the cross-sectional shape of the light guide 110 can be circular. As illustrated in Fig. 9A, the light portion 114 may have an arc-shaped region in the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction.
    As illustrated in Fig. 9B, the luminous part 114 may be contained in a recessed linear part provided in the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide part 112 along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110.
    In addition, as illustrated in FIG. 9C, the light portion 114 may be formed in a protruding linear portion provided on the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide portion 112 along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. As illustrated in FIG. 9D, the light part
    114 may be a plate-shaped portion connected to the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide portion 112 along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. In the examples illustrated in Figs. 9C and 9D, the cross-sectional shape of the light guide portion 112 is circular.
    In the previous examples, the area of the light portion 114 is smaller than the area of the light guide portion 112 in the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction, but this example is not limitative. The area of the light portion 114 may be equal to or greater than the area of the light guide portion 112. As illustrated in FIG. 10A, the light guide portion 112 may be contained in a recessed linear portion provided in the peripheral surface 110c of the light part 114 along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. As illustrated in FIG. 10B, the light guide part 112 can be formed in a protruding linear part provided on the peripheral surface 110c of the light part 114 along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110.
    In the previous examples, the light guide 110 is arranged such that the first light exit surface 118 and the second light exit surface 120 of the light guide 110 are substantially perpendicular to a horizontal plane , but this example is not limiting. The light guide 110 may be arranged such that at least one of the first light exit surface 118 and the second light exit surface 120 of the light guide 110 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 11A, the cross sectional shape of the light guide 110 can be rectangular, and the light guide 110 can be arranged so that the first light exit surface 118 and the second light exit surface 120 are inclined with respect to the horizontal plane. As illustrated in Fig. 11B, the cross-sectional shape of the light guide 110 can be triangular, and the light guide 110 can be arranged so that the second light exit surface 120 is inclined relative to the horizontal plane.
    In Figs. 11A and 11B, the horizontal plane is indicated schematically by the line H-H.
    A light guide 110 does not need to include a light guide portion 112. A plurality of light guide portions 112 may be provided in a light guide 110. As illustrated in FIG. 12A, the light guide 110 may include two light guide portions 112, and the light portion 114 may be interposed between these light guide portions 112. In addition, only one light guide is required 110 includes a light portion 114. A plurality of light portions 114 may be provided in a light guide 110. As illustrated in FIG. 12B, the light guide 110 may include two light portions 114 formed in one side of the light guide portion 112 and extending parallel to each other, along the longitudinal direction of the light guide light 110.
    As illustrated in FIG. 13, the light guide 110 may include a peripheral surface 110c having a facet 124 serving as a reflecting element. A plurality of facets 124 may be formed in the first light exit surface 118 along the longitudinal direction of the light guide portion 112. The light guide 110 may include a combination of the light portion 114 and the facet 124. The light guide 110 can therefore give rise to a unique appearance in which, generally, the weak light emitted by the light part 114 and a local point lighting produced by the facet 124 are superimposed.
    Corme described above, in some embodiments, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is greater when the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. Additional examples of these embodiments will now be described.
    Figs. 14A to 14D illustrate other examples of the light guide according to one embodiment. As illustrated in Figs. 14A to 14D, the area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction (the right-left direction in the drawings) can be constant, regardless of the position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. Thus, the area of the light portion 114 along the indicated section increases as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. At the same time, the area of the light guide portion 112 along the indicated section decreases as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110.
    Similarly to the embodiments described above, the incident light Li coming from the light source 108 enters the light guide part 112 through the light incidence surface 110a of the light guide 110. The light that has entered the light guide portion 112 is guided inside the light guide portion 112, and enters the light portion 114 through the interface 116, between the light guide portion 112 and the light portion 114. The light that has entered the light portion 114 is scattered by the light scattering agent, dispersed in the light portion 114, and the output light Lo is. transmitted by the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide 110.
    As regards the examples of the form, as illustrated in FIGS. 14A to 14C, the interface 116 can have a plurality of faces which form an angle, and each of the faces can extend in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. A part of the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide 110 is formed by the light guide part 112, and another part of the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide 110 is formed by the light part 114.
    In the example illustrated in FIG. 14A, in the same way as for the example described with reference to FIG. 10A, the light guide portion 112 is contained in a recessed linear portion provided in the light portion 114 along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. As the light guide portion 112 and the light portion 114 are .32 combined, the light guide 110 as a whole has an elongated rectangular parallelepiped shape which extends in the longitudinal direction. The light guide portion 112 has a quadrangular prismoidal shape that extends in the longitudinal direction, and three of its side surfaces, serving as an interface 116, are linked to the light portion 114. The remaining side surface of the light guide portion 112, along with the light portion 114, constitutes the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide 110. The light guide portion 112 becomes thinner as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases. Consequently, a first end surface of the light guide part 112, which partially constitutes the light incident surface 110a, is wider than a second end surface of the light guide part 112, which partially constitutes the end surface 110b on the opposite side.
    In the example illustrated in FIG. 14B, compared to the example illustrated in FIG. 14A, the arrangement of the light guide part 112 and the light part 114 is reversed, and the light part 114 is contained in a recessed linear part provided in the light guide part 112 along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. The light part 114 has a quadrangular prismoidal shape which extends in the longitudinal direction, three of its lateral surfaces serve as interface 116 between the light part 114 and the light guide part 112, and the surface remaining side, with the side guide portion 112, constitutes the peripheral surface 110c of the light guide 110. The light portion 114 thickens when the distance from the light incidence surface 110a increases (when the distance from the surface d 'end 110b decreases).
    In the example illustrated in FIG. 14C, the light guide 110 has an L-shaped section along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction. The light guide portion 112 and the light portion 114 each have an L-shaped cross section, and the interface 116 is composed of two faces which form an angle. The thickness of the light portion 114 along a section perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110 increases as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction, and the thickness of the portion light guide 112 decreases as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction.
    As illustrated in FIG. 14D, the light guide 110 may have an elongated round column shape which extends in the longitudinal direction. The light guide portion 112 is disposed in a central portion of the light guide 110, and the light portion 114 is disposed in an outer peripheral portion of the light guide 110. The light guide portion 112 has a frustoconical shape which s extends in the longitudinal direction, and all of its lateral surface, serving as an interface. 116, is linked to the light part 114. The lateral surface of the light part 114 serves as the peripheral surface 110 c of the light guide 110. The light guide portion 112 becomes thinner as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases. Therefore, the first end surface of the light guide portion 112, which partially constitutes the light incident surface 110a, is wider than the second end surface of the light guide portion 112, which partially constitutes the end surface 110b on the opposite side.
    Once the light has entered the light part 114, from the light guide part 112, it is diffused by the light scattering agent in the light part 114 and emitted outside. Thus, light is less likely to propagate in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. Therefore, the light guide 110 can be considered to have a tendency to emit more light from the light part 114, at the level from a position closer to the light incidence surface 110a. This tendency is mitigated by the fact that the light guide 110 includes the light guide part 112 which extends in the longitudinal direction (the light guide 110 can guide the light in its longitudinal direction through the light guide part light 112). However, if the indicated trend tends to prevail, the light guide 110 may be relatively brighter in the vicinity of the light incident surface 110a and relatively more attenuated near the end surface 110b on the opposite side. . This is undesirable if the light is to be emitted uniformly in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110.
    According to the embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 14A to 14D, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is greater when the distance from the area of incidence of light 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of light guide 110. In other words, the proportion of. the area of the light portion 114 is smaller in the vicinity of the light incidence area 110a. The light becomes more intense if the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 is greater, and the light becomes, less intense if the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 is less. Thus, the amount of light emitted by the light portion 114 in the vicinity of the light incidence surface 110a is reduced. Therefore, a greater amount of light can be guided through it. longitudinal direction through the light guide portion 112 to the end surface 110b on the opposite side, which allows the light guide 110 to emit more uniform light over its entire longitudinal direction. Consequently, when the light guide 110 is used for example in a vehicle lamp such as a beacon for an automobile, the visibility by pedestrians and other vehicles of the environment improves. This also improves security.
    In addition, if an appropriate adjustment of the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 in the longitudinal direction or in any other direction is desired, this will allow the light guide 110 to emit graduated light or to emit a light with any other desired distribution. In the examples illustrated in FIGS. 14A to 14D, the area of the light part 112 (and of the light part 114) varies progressively in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, but this example is not limiting. Similarly to the examples described with reference to FIG. 7D and in FIG. “A, the area of the light guide portion 112 (and of the light portion 114) can vary gradually in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. In addition, as described with reference to FIG. 7C, it is not essential that the light guide portion 112 is present over the entire longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. For example, the light guide 112 may not be present in the surface of end 110b opposite the light incidence surface 110a and in the vicinity of the end surface 110b, and the end surface 110b and its vicinity can be constituted by the light part 114 alone.
    Although it has already been mentioned above, a light guide generally comprising at least partially a region which includes a diffuser, tends to emit brighter light, at a position closer to 'a part of incoming light. It is therefore easy to design a light guide which can emit, with such gradation becoming more attenuated, when the distance from the incoming light portion increases. It is however difficult to obtain a gradation of light emission in the reverse direction. More specifically, it is difficult to obtain a light emission with such a gradation, more attenuated at a part closer to the part of incoming light, and brighter at a part more distant from the part incoming light.
    Figs. ISA to 15D illustrate other examples of the light guide 110 according to one embodiment. As indicated above, the use of the light guide .110 according to the embodiment allows, with relative ease, to obtain a light emission with a gradation which is brighter at a part closer to the light source 108 and the light incidence surface 110a along the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, and which is more attenuated at a part further away from it, as illustrated in FIG . ISA.
    In addition, the light guide 110 according to the embodiment makes it possible to obtain a light emission with a more attenuated gradation at a position closer to the light source 108 and to the light incidence surface. 110a, and brighter at a position further from the light source 108 and the light incidence surface 110a, as illustrated in FIG. 15B, by designing the light part 114 according to the distance from the light incidence surface 110a. Such application examples will now be described.
    In the example illustrated in FIG. 15C, la. proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is greater when the distance from the light incidence area 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110. The area of the section of the light guide 112 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is constant, regardless of the position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction, and the area of the light portion 114 along the indicated section increases as the distance from the light incident surface 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110.
    In an exemplary configuration, the light guide portion 112 includes two light pipes 12 6 and a light guide plate 128. The two light pipes 126 are each in the form of a round bar which s 'extends in the longitudinal direction and are arranged parallel to each other, with a space formed between them. A light source 108 is. disposed in the vicinity of one end of each light pipe 126. This end of each of the light pipes 126 is used as the light incidence surface 110a. The light guide plate 128 is formed in a rectangular plate and disposed between the two light pipes 126 to connect these two light pipes 126. The light pipes 126 and the light guide plate 128 are formed integrally from the first material described above. The light part 114 is linked to a main surface of the light guide plate 128, and the interface 116 is formed between the light guide part 112 and the light part 114. The light part 114 extends between the two light pipes 126 along the light guide plate 128. The light part 114 is formed from the second material described above.
    The depth D2 of the light portion 114 from the interface 116 is minimum at a position 130 closest to the light incidence surfaces 110a, gradually increases when the distance from the incidence surfaces of light 110a increases in the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110, and is maximum at the other end surfaces 110b.
    The light coming from the light sources 108 enters the light guide part 112 through the light incidence surfaces 110a of the light guide 110, is guided inside the light guide part 112, and enters the light part 114 through the interface 116, between the light guide part 112 and the light part 114. The light which has entered the light part 114 is scattered by the light scattering agent, dispersed in the light part 114, and emitted by the light part 114.
    The light becomes less intense where the thickness D2 of the light part 114 is less, and the light becomes more intense where the thickness D2 of the light part 114 is greater. Thus, as indicated by an arrow 132 in FIG. 15C, the light guide 110 allows the emission of light with a gradation which is more attenuated at a position closer to the light incidence surfaces 110a in the longitudinal direction, and which is brighter at the level d 'a more distant position of light incidence surface 110a. The arrow 132 indicates that the brightness gradually decreases towards the tip of the arrow, as in FIG. 15A and FIG. 15B. In another example configuration, as illustrated in FIG. 15D, the light guide portion 112 may include a single light pipe 1.26 and a light guide plate 128. A light source 108 is disposed in the vicinity of one end of the light pipe 126, and this end of the pipe light 126 serves as a light incidence surface 110a. The light guide plate 128 is formed in a rectangular plate and bonded on one side thereof to a side surface of the light pipe 126. Thus, the light guide plate 128 is arranged along a plane parallel to two directions including the longitudinal direction of the light guide 110 (the direction of the central axis of the light pipe 126) and a direction perpendicular thereto. The area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is constant, regardless of the position in the light guide 110, in its longitudinal direction. In addition, the proportion of the area of the light portion 114 relative to the total area of the section of the light guide 110 along a plane perpendicular to its longitudinal direction is also constant.
    The thickness D2 of the light portion 114 from the interface 116 is minimum at a position 134 closest to the light pipe 126, and gradually increases when the distance from the light pipe 126 increases in the direction perpendicular to the above-mentioned axial direction of the light pipe 126. The light becomes more intense where the thickness D2 of the. the light part 114 is greater, and the light becomes less intense where the thickness D2 of the light part 114 is less. Thus, as indicated by an arrow 136 in FIG. 15D, the light guide 110 makes it possible to obtain a light emission with a gradation which is more attenuated at a position closer to the conduit, of light 126 in the direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the light conduit 126, and which is brighter at a position further from the light pipe 126. The arrow 136 indicates that the brightness gradually decreases towards the tip of the arrow, as in FIG. ISA and Fig. 15B.
    In this way according to the, the light guides 110, embodiments illustrated in FIG. 15C and FIG. 15D, are each configured so that the light portion 114 emits more attenuated light at a position closer to the light incident surface 110a, and emits brighter light at a position further from the light incidence surface 110a. Unlike the existing light guides, the light guide 110 easily provides a light emission with a gradation which is more attenuated at a position closer to the light incidence surface 110a, and which is brighter at a position further from the light incident surface 110a. In addition, whatever, among the end surfaces of the light guide 110, that disposed near the light source 108 at the time of the design of the light guide 110, one of the two dimming directions illustrated on the Fig. 15A and FIG. 15B can be selected, if desired. In this way, the arrangement of the light source 108 is excluded from the design factors which determine the dimming direction, and the degree of design freedom of the lamp then improves. The present invention is not limited to the preceding embodiments and modifications. The embodiments and modifications may be combined, or other modifications, including different design changes, may be made to the preceding embodiments and modifications, depending on the knowledge of those skilled in the art.
    An embodiment or modification obtained by these combinations or by making other modifications is also included in the. scope of the present invention. The preceding embodiments and modifications and a new embodiment obtained by combining the preceding embodiments and modifications with the following modifications present advantageous effects of each of the embodiments, modifications, and other modifications combined. In the previous embodiments, a clearance lamp has been illustrated as an example of a vehicle lamp.
    However, the vehicle lamp is not limited to a clearance lamp, and the present invention can be widely applied to various types of vehicle lamps, including a turn signal, a stop light, a daytime running light, a 15 corner light, hazard light, position light, reverse light, fog light, and. a projector.
