<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent illumination light from obstructing the driver's view sitting in a front seat when arranging a light-guiding illumination member in an instrument panel in a front part of vehicle interior. <P>SOLUTION: This illumination system of the vehicle interior is constituted by arranging the light-guiding illumination member 2 in the instrument panel 10 in the front part of vehicle interior. The instrument panel 10 is provided with a step part S laterally extending at a height approximately equal to or above that of an installation part of a steering wheel 35 to the instrument panel. In the step part, a rear edge 11p of a step upper part face 11f on its upper side is set by overhanging onto a backward side of a vehicle more than a front edge 12p of an upper part of a step lower part face 12f on a lower side. The illumination member is laterally extended in the vicinity of the front edge of the step lower part face. Illumination light from the illumination member is illuminated toward the step lower part face and is set to prevent it from directly coming within the field of view of the driver sitting in the front seat. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2006,JPO&NCIPI |
