## Abstract

According to an embodiment, a lamp main body, a lighting device, a reflecting member and a light-emitting module are provided. The lamp main body includes a case and a cap member attached to the case. The case includes an opening at one end and a hole in the other end center. The cap member integrally includes a projection insertable into the hole. The lighting device and the reflecting member are housed in the case. The lighting device includes a circuit board. The reflecting member configured to reflect light to the outside of the lamp main body includes a reflecting cylinder section including a small-diameter opening and a large-diameter opening. The diameter of the cylinder section expands further toward the large-diameter opening side. The light-emitting module is arranged on the projection to be capable of transmitting heat to the projection.

## Claims
