1. A lighting device comprising:
a light emitting element for emitting light toward a forward direction of the lighting device; a light flux controlling member for emitting a part of light, the light being emitted toward the forward direction from the light emitting element, toward a lateral direction or a rear direction of the lighting device, the light flux controlling member being arranged on an optical axis of the light emitting element, and comprising a first light flux controlling member and a second light flux controlling member; a cover that covers the light flux controlling member for transmitting light emitted from the light flux controlling member with the light being diffused; and a housing that supports the light emitting element, the light flux controlling member and the cover, wherein the first light flux controlling member is arranged opposing the light emitting element for emitting a part of light that is emitted from the light emitting element and reaches the first light flux controlling member toward the second light flux controlling member, the second light flux controlling member has a reflection surface that faces to an emission surface of the first light flux controlling member for reflecting a part of light emitted from the first light flux controlling member and reaches the second light flux controlling member, and for transmitting the remaining light, the reflection surface is a rotationally symmetric surface whose rotation axis is the optical axis, and a generating line of the rotationally symmetric surface is formed to be a concave curve with respect to the first light flux controlling member, an outer peripheral portion of the reflection surface is disposed at a position away from the light emitting element in a direction of the optical axis, compared to a central portion of the reflection surface, and the housing is formed into a shape so that α is 0 or greater in any cross-section including the optical axis, where α is one of two obtuse angles formed between an extension line of a tangent that comes into contact with the housing from an outer rim of the reflection surface and the optical axis, the α being the one obtuse angle positioned more forwardly than the other obtuse angle; and θ represents an angle of an emitting direction of light that indicates peak intensity at rearward in distribution of luminous intensity of the light emitted from the light flux controlling member, provided that an angle of an emitting direction of light emitted forward from the light flux controlling member along the optical axis is set to 0°. |
