Zusammenfassung:A lens component disperses light from a source having a distribution characteristic in which luminosity becomes smaller according to distance from the optical axis. The component includes an incidence portion at a source position struck by light from the source and guiding portions branching from the incidence portion and extending radially from the source position. Each guiding portion includes a basal end portion joined to the incidence portion, emission end portion emitting light away from the source, and reflection surface guiding light that struck the basal end portion while performing internal reflection. The incidence portion and guiding portions form a light distribution structure arranged so that a ratio of luminosity in a direction making a predetermined angle with the optical axis with respect to luminosity in the axial direction in light emitted from the structure is larger than a corresponding ratio in the source's distribution characteristic.
