A light bar has a circuit board positioned within a housing and having a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) or a thin-film-transistor liquid-crystal display (TFT LCD) is configured to transmit light. The housing has wiring electrically connected to a controller. The controller is configured to receive signals from the electrical system of the vehicle, interpret the signals received from the electrical system of the vehicle, and in response automatically control illumination of independently controllable segments of the vehicle light bar. The controller is initially programmed to perform specific function(s) and/or strobe according to specific patterns and is thereafter at least partially restricted from being reprogrammed by a user to serve other function(s), either by restricting the emission of light in at least one color and/or preventing specific strobing pattern(s).

A vehicle lamp comprises a light irradiation unit including a light source and a board on which the light source is installed, a base member including a first surface for mounting the light irradiation unit and a second surface adjacent to the first surface, a connection terminal arranged on the second surface and extending and protruding in a direction of the first surface, and a coupling member arranged on the board and electrically connected with the light source. The connection terminal is inserted into the coupling member when the board is mounted on the first surface.

An auxiliary spare tire brake light is provided for a vehicle having a spare tire with a rim that has spokes and openings and that is secured on lugs at the back of the vehicle. The auxiliary spare tire brake light includes a support disc having a central portion and a peripheral portion. An array of openings is formed in the central portion of the support disc and the openings are positioned to fit over the lugs at the back of the vehicle for positioning the support on the lugs behind the rim of the spare tire. An annular race extends around the peripheral portion of the support and a plurality of lights in the form of LEDs is disposed in the race. The LEDs are arrayed in a closely spaced substantially continuous array around the support to form a ring of LEDs. A wire and electrical connector electrically connect the plurality of LEDs to the brake circuitry of the vehicle so that the LEDs are illuminated when the vehicle's brake pedal is depressed, A first portion of the ring of LEDs align with and project light directly through the openings in the rim of the spare tire to be seen from behind as an indication that the vehicle is braking. A second portion of the ring of LEDs aligns behind) the spokes and reflects off of the backs of the spokes to silhouette the rim against the glow of the reflected light.

An infrared lamp 100 is composed of an LED 110 that emits infrared light and a cut filter 120 that transmits a part of the light from the LED 110. And a peak wavelength of the light emitted from the LED 110 in the lighting starting stage is set to be shorter than a cut-on wavelength of the cut filter 120.

A taillight enhancement harness for providing a lighting enhancement to a taillight of a towed vehicle. The harness interconnects a first lighting system of a towing vehicle and a second lighting system of the towed vehicle. A lighting enhancement circuit is interposed between a first connector, configured to couple to the towing vehicle, and a second connector, configured to couple to the towed vehicle. The lighting enhancement circuit is configured to activate a taillight of the towed vehicle in a strobe operation. After a predetermined temporal period, the taillight resumes a normal indication operating mode for the taillight.

A warning light system for a work vehicle including a plurality of lighting devices configured for being connected to the roof of the work vehicle and located underneath the plane of the top surface of the roof. At least two lighting devices of the plurality of lighting devices are configured for being visible at any side of the work vehicle. The warning light system also includes a wiring harness configured for operably connecting the plurality of lighting devices to the electrical power source.

A lighting system for specialty lighting, which may be attached to a motor vehicle with a window (e.g., glass, plastic, etc.) that is light transmissive. The lighting system may include one or more light assemblies attached to the window in an interior of the vehicle. The lighting system may include an optical path translator to direct the light emitted out the window of the vehicle and limit the amount of light reflected into the cabin of the vehicle. The lighting system may provide concealed electrical connections for power, signal, and data, as well as concealment for one or more additional aspects of the lighting system.

A device comprising a flexible printed circuit strip is disclosed. The flexible printed circuit strip comprises a plurality of first sections connected to a plurality of second sections. The plurality of first sections are bendable in at least a first axis relative to the plurality of second sections. The plurality of first sections comprise a connector to house at least one light emitting element. The plurality of second sections comprises a protrusion with an opening between two adjacent second sections such that the protrusion is bendable in at least two axes. The plurality of second sections comprise a connector to connect an electrical power supply.

An illumination device for a motor vehicle includes one or more multi-color LED units which each have a settable color point and settable brightness, wherein each multi-color LED unit is an individual semiconductor component having multiple single-color LEDs of different colors and a microcontroller. The single-color LEDs and the microcontroller are surrounded by a housing of the semiconductor component. The microcontroller is designed to control each single-color LED of an associated multi-color LED unit depending on a current temperature value of the associated multi-color LED unit in such a way that a set color point and a set brightness are held constant during operation of the associated multi-color LED unit.

A regulating assembly for a light source and a lighting and/or signaling device, an adjusting device, a lighting device and a motor vehicle, a bezel device, and a gas guiding device and a lighting and/or signaling device containing the same are provided in the present disclosure. The regulating assembly and the adjusting device are used to adjust the lighting and/or signaling module in the lighting device provided in the housing of the lighting device. The bezel device and the gas guiding device may be used for the lighting and/or signaling device. The regulating assembly comprises a supporting frame coupled in a displaceable manner to the light source, a fixed regulating portion which is rotatable, and horizontal and vertical regulating portions in a form of a ball-headed screw-thread part. The adjusting device includes an adjusting screw, a slider and a base, and the bezel device includes a top bezel having a flat plate-like body and a main bezel including a first bezel and a second bezel. The gas guiding device comprises a gas channel and a flow guiding component for guiding an air flow through one or more readily condensable locations of the lighting and/or signaling device.
