<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To improve sealing performance at the engaging part between a sticker leg 22 and a seal-groove 14 in a vehicle lighting fixture in which a convex/concave engaging part 30 being a mechanical binding means is installed between the sticker leg 22 of the front lens 20 and the seal-groove 14 of a lamp body 10. <P>SOLUTION: In the vehicle lighting fixture in which a convex part 24 is installed on the outside of the sticker leg 22 of the front lens 20, a recess 18 constituting a convex/concave engaging part 30 in cooperation with the convex part of the seal leg is installed on the exterior wall 16 of the sticker groove 14 of the lamp body with which the sticker leg 22 engages, and at the same time as the seal leg is inserted into the sticker groove 14 mounted with the sealant 13, the convex part of the seal leg is elastically engaged with the recess of the sticker groove so that the lamp body and the front lens are mechanically fastened, a thin wall part 19a extending along the sticker groove over the region corresponding to the convex/concave engaging part on the bottom wall 17 of the sticker groove is installed, and at inserting the sticker leg into the sticker groove, the exterior wall of the sticker groove pushed by the convex part of the sticker leg is bent, thereby, the sticker leg is inserted into the sticker groove without bending. Thereby, inconveniences such as scraping-out of the sealant does not occur. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2004,JPO |
