Abstract (en)

[origin: EP3838564A1] Provided is a vehicle lighting fixture (1) that suppresses a change in the brightness difference of light emission even when a viewing angle in a front view is increased. The vehicle lighting fixture (1) include: a light source (3); a reflector (4) configured to reflect light (L) emitted from the light source (3) toward a first direction; and a light guide lens (5) configured to have a front surface and a rear surface and receive from the rear surface the light (L) reflected by the reflector (4) and output the light from the front surface. The light guide lens (5) has a recess portion (11) in the front surface, and a lens portion (12) in the rear surface being opposite to the recess portion (11), and a part of the light (L) condensed by the lens portion (12) is totally reflected by the recess portion (11), so that a region corresponding to the recess portion (11) is caused to output light with an intensity relatively smaller than that in a periphery thereof.
