Indication device
An indication device includes an indication portion made of a light transmitting material and a cover portion made of a light blocking material. The indication portion has a sign including at least one of a character, a symbol and a figure. The cover portion covers a periphery of the sign of the indication portion. The sign is illuminated by light emitted by a light source and guided to the indication portion. The cover portion is configured such that a recess from a surface of the cover portion is provided in a region corresponding to the sign of the indication portion.
1. An indication device comprising:
an indication portion which internally transmits light, the indication portion comprising a sign which made entirely of a light transmitting material such that the sign internally transmits light, the sign protruding integrally and continuously from a top surface of the indication portion, a top surface of the sign being provided in a shape of at least one of a character, a symbol and a figure; and
a cover portion made of a light blocking material, the cover portion covering a periphery of the sign of the indication portion,
wherein the sign is internally illuminated by light emitted by a light source and guided to the indication portion, and
wherein the cover portion is configured such that a recess from a surface of the cover portion is provided in a region corresponding to the sign of the indication portion.
2. The indication device according to claim 1 , wherein a bottom of the recess is opened so that the sign of the indication portion faces an outside.
3. The indication device according to claim 1 , wherein the indication portion and the cover portion are integrally formed by two-color molding.
4. The indication device according to claim 3 , wherein the indication portion has an inclined surface raised toward a peripheral edge of the recess.
5. An indication device comprising:
an indication portion which internally transmits light, the indication portion comprising a sign which made entirely of a light transmitting material such that the sign internally transmits light, the sign protruding integrally and continuously from a top surface of the indication portion such that a top surface of the sign is raised relative to the top surface of the indication portion, the top surface of the sign being provided in a shape of at least one of a character, a symbol and a figure; and
a cover portion made of a light blocking material, the cover portion covering a periphery of the sign of the indication portion,
wherein the sign is internally illuminated by light emitted by a light source and guided to the indication portion, and
wherein the indication portion has an inclined surface extending between the top surface of the indication portion and a peripheral edge of the top surface of the sign.
6. The indication device according to claim 5 , wherein the cover portion is configured such that a recess from a top surface of the cover portion is provided in a region corresponding to the sign of the indication portion.
7. The indication device according to claim 6 , wherein a bottom of the recess is opened so that the sign of the indication portion faces an outside.
8. The indication device according to claim 5 , wherein the indication portion and the cover portion are integrally formed by two-color molding.
