Vehicle lamp using light emitting diode

A vehicle lamp using a light emitting diode as a light source and having a reflective mirror arranged for the light emitting diode, wherein

• a plurality of light emitting diodes are arranged so as to form a group of light sources, reflective mirrors are disposed in a manner surrounding the respective light emitting diodes,
• a direct light area and a reflected light area are provided to a lens portion of each light emitting diode, of the light emitted from the chip of the light emitting diode, the light passed through the direct light area is emitted outside the lens portion, and the light emitted from the chip and passed through the reflected light area is emitted toward the reflective mirror disposed with respect to the light emitting diode,
• in the light emitted toward the reflective mirror, the light reflected at a position close to the peripheral edge of the opening of the reflective mirror is emitted in a direction substantially parallel to an optical axis of the reflective mirror, and
• in the light emitted toward the reflective mirror, the light reflected at a reflecting point closer to the optical axis of the reflective mirror has an increased angle with the optical axis of the reflective mirror and is emitted in a direction crossing a plane intersecting a plane including the reflecting point and the optical axis of the reflective mirror at right angles.
