A lighting fixture for a vehicle where a fit part of a waterproof cover and the mounting part of a reflector are covered with a removal preventing piece in the waterproof construction of the reflector so mounted as to be tilt freely in the lamp housing. The removal preventing piece is provided around the peripheral part of a socket cover for a lamp socket of the used lamp and the number of parts is all the smaller or the use of the flange part on the lamp socket as a removal preventing piece makes it possible to provide a simpler and smaller lighting fixture for a vehicle.

A system that remotely controls a mobile body includes a guideway (i.e., balanced feeder line) for guiding the mobile body to its destination, and a coupling device provided on the mobile body for transmitting and receiving control information to control movement of the mobile body along the guideway. The coupling device includes a first loop antenna and a second loop antenna that are cross-connected to each other. A distance from the center of the balanced feeder line to the center of the first loop antenna is less than a distance from the center of the balanced feeder line to the center of the second loop antenna. The system can operate with an extremely low power of emission with a weak electric field intensity of a radio wave for controlling the movement of the mobile body.

A vehicle light is disclosed that can facilitate the replacement operation of an axial fan motor and the optical axis adjustment of an LED light source unit as well as can simultaneously promote dissipation of heat generated by the LED light source unit when powered. The vehicle light can include at least one LED light source unit disposed within a light chamber defined by a lens cover and a housing. The vehicle light can further include, within the light chamber: a heat sink including a heat sink main body to which the LED light source unit is secured and a plurality of heat dissipation fins; a back plate separated away from the heat sink main body at a certain distance, the back plate constituting a part of a duct together with the heat sink, the duct containing the plurality of heat dissipation fins between the heat sink main body and the back plate; an optical axis adjusting mechanism configured to adjust the optical axis of the LED light source unit by moving the duct; a heat conduction member configured to conduct heat generated by the LED light source unit, when turned on, to the heat sink; an axial fan motor configured to generate an air flow passing through the duct to circulate the air flow within the light chamber; and a cover member, the housing having an opening used for replacing the axial fan motor with another one, the cover member being detatchably attached to the housing so as to cover the opening of the housing. The axial fan motor is disposed near the opening at a position where the axial fan motor does not interfere with the duct moved by the optical adjusting mechanism.

A vehicle light can include a plurality of light projection units each having a replaceable LED lamp, a reflector unit, a projection lens, and a shielding member. A housing can be provided that includes a lens and a rear side part, with the housing configured to accommodate the light projection units. The rear side part can include a mounting opening therethrough with a base plate configured to be hermetically attached to the housing through the mounting opening of the rear side part. The replaceable LED lamp can be attached to the base plate, and an elastic connecting member can be configured to hermetically connect the housing and the base plate so that the LED lamps can be individually replaced. Since the LED lamps can be individually replaced, untrained persons can carry out the replacement operation. Furthermore, it is possible to reduce the replacement cost and time as well as improve the rate of operation of a vehicle.
