Emblem
An emblem includes: a light source; a light guide through which light rays radiated from the light source are guided; and an outer lens that emits light rays by transmitting the light rays radiated from the light guide. The light guide has plural reflective surfaces that reflect the guided light rays from the light source, respectively, toward respective parts of an outer circumferential portion of the outer lens.
1 . An emblem comprising:
a light source;
a light guide through which light rays radiated from the light source are guided; and
an outer lens that emits light rays by transmitting the light rays radiated from the light guide,
wherein the light guide has a plurality of reflective surfaces that reflect the guided light rays from the light source, respectively, toward respective parts of an outer circumferential portion of the outer lens, and
wherein the plurality of reflective surfaces are formed on an outer circumferential surface of the light guide.
2 . An emblem comprising:
a light source;
a light guide through which light rays radiated from the light source are guided; and
an outer lens that emits light rays by transmitting the light rays radiated from the light guide,
wherein the light guide has a plurality of reflective surfaces that reflect the guided light rays from the light source, respectively, toward respective parts of an outer circumferential portion of the outer lens, and
wherein, between two adjacent reflective surfaces of the light guide, a step is formed having a difference in height in a direction in which each of the light rays from the light source is directed.
3 . The emblem according to claim 1 , wherein, when the outer lens is viewed from a front, a maximum dimension of the outer lens in a left-right direction and a maximum dimension of the outer lens in an up-down direction are set to different dimensions from each other.
4 . An emblem comprising:
a light source;
a light guide through which light rays radiated from the light source are guided; and
an outer lens that emits light rays by transmitting the light rays radiated from the light guide,
wherein the light guide has a plurality of reflective surfaces that reflect the guided light rays from the light source, respectively, toward respective parts of an outer circumferential portion of the outer lens, and
wherein the light source is provided at a position different from a centroid of the light guide when the light guide is viewed from a front.
5 . An emblem comprising:
a light source;
a light guide through which light rays radiated from the light source are guided; and
an outer lens that emits light rays by transmitting the light rays radiated from the light guide,
wherein the light guide has a plurality of reflective surfaces that reflect the guided light rays from the light source, respectively, toward respective parts of an outer circumferential portion of the outer lens, and
wherein each of the reflective surfaces and a direction in which each of the light rays from the light source is directed are orthogonal when the light guide is viewed from a front.
6 . The emblem according to claim 1 , wherein
the plurality of reflective surfaces are arranged side by side along an outer edge of the light guide.
7 . The emblem according to claim 1 , wherein
an inner circumferential portion of the light guide has a tapered surface that reflects, toward the plurality of reflective surfaces, the guided light rays from the light source.
