Title:
VEHICULAR LAMP
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2008108500
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:

To remove snow on an outer surface of a cover lens in a short time while restraining power consumption.

In this vehicular lamp structured to suppress snow accretion to the cover lens 1, a snow-sliding coating 2 is applied to the outer surface of the cover lens 1, and an ultrasonic vibrator 3 is jointed to the cover lens 1. Preferably, the ultrasonic vibrator 3 is arranged at a position separated from an outer edge part 1a of the cover lens 1, and higher than that of a light source 4 for a low beam. When an ultrasonic vibrator drive switch arranged in a vehicular drive seat is turned on by a driver, the ultrasonic vibrator 3 is driven, and thereby vibration generated by the ultrasonic vibrator 3 is transmitted to the cover lens 1. As a result, the cover lens 1 is vibrated, and snow on the outer surface of the cover lens 1 is slid and dropped.
