| 20080236006 | Method and apparatus for delivering visual information - An information display device illuminates a light pipe, and includes a controller to regulate the power levels delivered to a light source, thereby regulating the amount of light delivered to the light pipe. Alternatively, the information display device delivers visual data, including alpha-numeric characters, predetermined images, or a controlled phasing. The information display device may be utilized to illuminate information associated with the structure. The illumination system provides the ability to phase between different colors, as well as blended colors. Accordingly, an information display device phases between varying colors, and may blend colors to create color schemes. The illumination system includes a control module disposed within the structure to control device parameters. The illumination system further includes landscape lights that are in communication with the control module and the information display device, such that the landscape lights may phase with the information display device, thereby providing a unified phasing effect. | 10-02-2008 |
| 20090277059 | Bi-color Illuminated Emblem - A bi-color illuminated emblem includes a metal-look portion having a metal look layer, a substrate layer that supports the metal look layer, and a plurality of illuminating elements. The metal look layer and the substrate layer pass light from the illuminating elements. The illuminating elements emit light within a predetermined emission angle, which is 120 degree. The substrate layer is made of semi-transparent ABS. The substrate layer comprises an outer surface which supports the metal look layer, and an inner surface that faces the illuminating elements and has coarse texture that causes scattering of light. The distance between the inner surface of the substrate layer and the illuminating elements is in a range from 7˜10 mm. The illuminating element comprises an LED and a light guiding element that guides the light from the LED emits throughout and within the predetermined angle. | 11-12-2009 |
| 20100212199 | Vehicle-Mounted Windsock - The present invention is directed to a new and improved method and apparatus for a mobile aerodynamic illumination apparatus having a graphic and secured to an automobile the apparatus including a modular base joined to a stem extending from said modular base fastened to a windsock having an inner and outer adapted to receive the graphic presenting a visual display surface, said windsock further comprising an illuminator having a lens assembly surrounding a light source and in visual communication with a light tunnel, said lens assembly including a lens, a first and second reflector said light source fixed to one end of said light tunnel and operable to emit light, the first and second reflectors being spaced apart and each presenting a reflective curvilinear surface whereby said emitted light is dispersed to said visual display surface for illumination of said graphic. | 08-26-2010 |
| 20110314711 | COLOR CHANGING DISPLAYS - A color changing display is provided that includes a frame structure having an inner surface, an outer surface, a front edge defining an open front portion of the frame structure, and a back edge defining an open back portion of the frame structure. A panel, having a front surface and a back surface, is attached to the back edge of the frame structure and covers the open back portion of the frame structure. One or more lights are secured to the inner surface of the frame structure and a light-transmitting substrate is attached to the front edge of the frame structure such that the light-transmitting substrate covers the open front portion of the frame structure. A combined image, comprising two or more images, is affixed to the light-transmitting substrate such that an appearance of the combined image changes in response to different colors of light. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20120304513 | ILLUMINATED DEVICE - An illuminating device is provided, including a first informational block and a second informational block. The first informational block may include an informational communication. The informational communication may include at least one graphic illustration having a defined graphic area. The panel may be positioned such that at least a portion of the informational communication is substantially visible through the viewing plane. The second informational block may include a sponsor communication. The information blocks may be encompassed by a frame and be illuminated by a light emitting source within the frame. | 12-06-2012 |
| 20130118047 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING A TRANSPARENT OBJECT ATTRACTING A VIEWER'S ATTENTION, AND A CORRESPONDING OBJECT - A method for producing a transparent object that attracts a viewer's attention. At least some of the object surface facing the viewer is illuminated by means of an illumination source that irradiates a bottom surface of the object, said bottom surface facing away from the viewer. The disclosed method is characterized in that the object is provided with a surface that is reflective in incident light. | 05-16-2013 |
| 20150325157 | COLOR CHANGING DISPLAY SYSTEMS - A color changing display system is provided that includes a light source for producing different light colors, a controller for providing a smooth transition between the different light colors, and a body with a combined image comprising two or more differently colors images printed in a single layer and positioned on the body. Each of the different color images reacts with a respective color of the different light colors such that an appearance of the combined image changes gradually from a first display image having one particular shape into a second display image having a second particular shape in response to the different light colors interacting with the combined image to produce a moving, seemingly holographic effect. The combined image may be back-lit or front-lit. | 11-12-2015 |
| 20160140886 | Yellow Fellow Safety Signs - This is a unique wet floor safety sign that has the ability that no other wet floor signs has. It has the ability to give aid in early warning to the seeing impaired and to caution the unexpected person of a potential hazard by sounding a loud beeping sound or speaking a pre-recorded message. This wet floor sign also has flashing LED lights to help aid the hearing impaired when navigating their way around schools, stores, airports, shopping malls, and hospitals. By using an early warning system this will help in reducing the second leading cause of accidental deaths, the terrible slips, trips and falls. | 05-19-2016 |
