    摘要: A vehicle sun visor has a light source on a light guide plate back side allowing light to be emitted, a visor main body, and a light source inside the body. A light guide plate is installed on a light source front side. The plate has a first exit surface reflecting light inside the plate from a back surface. A second exit surface reflecting light passing along the plate is formed on its back surface. A mirror plate is installed alongside on the plate front side, and has a mirror region covering the light source and the first exit surface from the front side, and a luminous region covering the second exit surface from the front side. A diffusion member is placed in direct and close contact with a luminous region back surface, and the diffusion member diffuses light from the light guide plate toward the front side.
