BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described, but it is merely an exemplary embodiment adopted based on the present invention, and the present invention is based on matters peculiar to the embodiment. However, the technical scope of the present invention should be determined based on the matters shown in the claims and the matters substantially equivalent to the matters.

The illustrated embodiment is a lighting device in which a main body 2 made of metal or resin in which a lamp 1 such as a fluorescent lamp is arranged on the front side is housed in a recess 4 in an upper part of a vanity stand 3. 2 is a lighting device for a vanity, which is integrally formed with a reflection plate 5 extending forward at the upper edge of the second vanity. The reflector 5 and the lamp 1 are covered with a translucent cover 6 (made of resin). Further, the locking projections 7 formed on the upper and lower edges of the cover 6 are locked to the locking recesses 8 formed on the opening edge of the recess 4.

More specifically, a pair of sockets 9 are fixed to the front surface of the main body 2, and the lamp 1 is detachably attached to the sockets 9. From the lower edge of the main body 2, for example, a mounting piece 10 extending rearward is integrally formed.
When is fixed to the vanity 3 in the recess 4 by an appropriate means (not shown), the main body 2 is fixed to the vanity 3. A lamp lighting device 11 such as a ballast is fixed to the upper surface of the mounting piece 10. A mirror 12 is attached to the lower front surface of the vanity 3.

Since the present embodiment is a lighting device for a vanity, which is integrally formed with a reflection plate 5 extending forward at the upper edge of the main body 2, a face 13 of a person 13 standing in front of the vanity 3 can be seen. It is suitable as a lighting device for a bathroom vanity because it can increase the amount of light.
