IMPROVED ELECTRICAL CONNECTION DEVICE
An electrical connection device is enabled to be linked materially and electrically to an external support that has an electric potential difference, and at the same time enabled to be linked materially and electrically to an external electrically operated device, and therefore for transmitting electric potential between the external support and the external device, which includes a base that incorporates a spring and a shaft enabled for receiving and transmitting the electric potential difference from the external support and is arranged and enabled on the same base in order to make electrical contact with the support of a compressive force on the spring.
METHOD FOR MAKING AN ELECTROLUMINESCENT MARKING ON AN EXTERIOR WALL OF AN AIRCRAFT, MARKING TAPE COMPRISING THE ELECTROLUMINESCENT MARKING, AND AIRCRAFT COMPRISING THE ELECTROLUMINESCENT MARKING
A method for making an electroluminescent marking on an exterior wall of an aircraft, including a step of superpositioning of layers designed or configured to produce the electroluminescent marking on a first face of a flexible backing distinct from the aircraft to obtain a marking tape and a step of affixing the marking tape to the exterior wall of the aircraft. The disclosure herein also concerns a marking tape for the implementing of the method, a marking device obtained from the method, and an aircraft comprising the marking device.
LIGHT BRACKET FOR USE ON TRUCK GRILLE
A first LED lamp bracket is provided that can be fixed to an interior portion of a front grille section that is part of an engine hood assembly of a motorized vehicle. The LED lamps are located on the LED lamp bracket such that they are clearly visible through the engine hood front grille assembly. The LED lamp bracket assembly is designed such that it takes advantage of the spacing of the grille openings such that the LED lamps are visible when the LED lamp bracket is attached to the motorized vehicle. The first LED lamp bracket can be used with a 2014 Ford F150 truck. According to further aspects of the embodiments, a second LED lamp bracket assembly is provided that includes substantially identical design features, but which is fitted to a 2015 Ford F150 truck.
Method of controlling an agricultural vehicle lighting system and system thereof
An agricultural work vehicle for operating in a field includes a chassis, a cab mounted to the chassis, a controller for controlling operation of the work vehicle, and a lighting system including a array field light. The array field light projects a light emission to illuminate a defined zone. A light control module is disposed in electrical communication with the controller and operably controls the at least one array field light. A sensing device senses an area surrounding the work vehicle. The sensing device transmits a signal indicative of a detected object to the controller, which in turn determines if the detected object is in the defined zone. If the detected object is in the defined zone, the light control module controllably adjusts an output from the array field light so that only a portion of the defined zone in which the object is not located is illuminated.
BOX STEP WITH MULTI-PURPOSE LIGHTING
A box step lighting arrangement for a vehicle which includes a mount for attachment to a vehicle. A step member and a linkage are connected to the mount, the linkage move the step member between a deployed position and retracted position. A motor is attached to the linkage to move the step between a deployed position and retracted position. Connected to the linkage is at least one light module. The light module has at least one light projection element that projects light onto the step member and the ground beneath the step member.
Method and apparatus for vehicular light fixtures
A lighting device is provided for controlling the photometric distribution of light emitted by two or more LEDs. The lighting device may be integrated with a control system of the vehicle and may be controlled by a remote controller. The lighting device may be capable of being operated in one or more modes of operation based on operating conditions, user input, or both. Operating conditions may include vehicle conditions, environmental conditions, and user conditions. The controller may operate a software application to enable the user to modify, control, or otherwise regulate any mode of operation or other feature of the lighting system.
LIGHT ASSEMBLY FOR ATTACHMENT TO A SURFACE OF A VEHICLE
A light assembly for attachment to a surface of a vehicle. The light assembly includes a vehicle base configured to be coupled to the surface of the vehicle and a light head coupled to the vehicle base. The light head is configured to rotate relative to the vehicle base about a first axis and about a second axis that is different from the first axis. The light head is configured to rotate about the first and second axes at a first speed in response to a first user input, and to rotate about the first and second axes at a second speed that is different from the first speed in response to a second user input.
MULTI-COLORED VEHICLE REAR LAMP
A lamp for the rear of a vehicle is disclosed with a light transmissive cover having a red first illuminated surface area and a clear second illuminated surface area. It has a first LED light emitter located directly beneath the red first area, a second LED light emitter located directly beneath the clear second area, and a third LED light emitter, also located directly beneath said clear second area. The third red LED light emitter is for emitting red light through the clear second area simultaneously with light transmitted through the red first area, whereby the first and second areas are adapted to collectively form a contiguous red illuminated surface area.
CAN-BUS LIGHTING ADAPTOR
An adaptor for connecting an LED lighting unit to a vehicle CAN-bus. The adaptor has a connector connectable to a corresponding connector on a vehicle, to receive a lighting current from the CAN-bus of the vehicle. A wireless power transmitter of the adaptor wirelessly transmits power to the LED lighting unit at a first level, typically suited to LED operation. The adaptor further includes one or more resistors connected between the connector and transmitter and arranged to draw power from the connector at a second power level higher than the first power level, which second power level is suitably equivalent to that for halogen or filament lighting.
AUXILIARY VEHICLE LED LIGHTING SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USE
The present invention is an LED lighting system which can be retrofit to an existing vehicle. The lighting system can provide sequential lighting of multiple lamps for effect. In a non-limiting embodiment, a 7-pin wireless remote controller may be plugged directly into a vehicle's 7-pin hitch harness port where it draws power and receives light signals for stopping, hazard (four-way lights), turning. It then in turn will process and communicate these signals to a wireless LED strip. In another non-limiting embodiment, a 4-pin wireless remote controller may be connected directly to a vehicle's 4-pin harness plug, if equipped, or spliced directly into the vehicle's wire harness if it is not equipped with a 4-pin plug. The 4-pin wireless remote controller will process these light signals and communicate them to a wireless LED strip.
