Abstract:
A lighting fixture projects light sideward and has no restriction in design. The lighting fixture can include an LED; a primary lens disposed in an optical axis of the LED, the primary lens being configured to form a main light distribution; an auxiliary lens disposed on an outer peripheral side of the primary lens around the optical axis of the LED; and a reflecting portion configured to reflect part of light emitted from the LED to substantially an entire area of the auxiliary lens on an inner peripheral surface side thereof. The reflecting portion can be formed integrally with the primary lens and include an incident surface on which part of light emitted from the LED can be incident, a reflecting surface configured to reflect light having entered through the incident surface, and a light-exiting surface configured to allow the light reflected by the reflecting surface to exit.
