Self-Illuminated Portable Shadowbox Monument
A self-illuminated shadow box for containing mementos or the like includes a box that has an upright metallic back wall panel for attaching magnets, a transparent door spaced from the upright metallic back wall panel, a roof extending over the metallic back wall panel and the transparent wall, and a solar energized light emitting diode mounted on the roof and directed toward the metallic back wall.
TRIM ELEMENT COMPRISING A MAIN DISPLAY SURFACE AND A PERIPHERAL DISPLAY SURFACE
A trim element having an outer surface that is at least partially translucent, the outer surface defining a main display surface and a peripheral display surface, the peripheral display surface extending around at least a portion of the main display surface, a screen of a display device extending opposite the main display surface. The trim member includes an illumination device having a luminous sheet extending opposite the main display surface and the peripheral display surface so as to emit at least a first luminous signal onto the screen and at least a second luminous signal illuminating at least a portion of the peripheral display surface when the luminous sheet is activated.
TRIM ELEMENT COMPRISING AN INTEGRATED DISPLAY AREA
A trim element having a display area defined by a display device, and an edge piece that includes a peripheral area extending around at least part of the display area, the peripheral area being at least partly translucent, the display area and the peripheral area forming at least a part of an outer surface of the trim element. The trim element further includes an illumination device arranged to illuminate the display device to display images on the display area. The illumination device has a luminous sheet extending at least facing the display area and the peripheral area of the edge piece.
Mobile Valet Signage
Provided here are mobile way-finder signs having changeable panels that are internally illuminated. Internal illumination may be caused by battery-powered LED light bulbs. The sign may include a base, an inner frame, an outer frame, a changeable panel, and a retainer. The sign may include a power toggle switch and interior LEDs and wiring within the inner or outer frames. The sign may include a rechargeable battery pack located under the base in a snap-in holder, and heavy-duty black polyurethane wheels.
DISPLAY UNIT FOR A PASSAGE CONTROL DEVICE
A display unit for a passage control device, having a housing that has a front side, a rear side and an encircling circumferential side connecting the front side and rear side to one another. A display surface is integrated in the front side of the housing. The housing has an optical signaling apparatus that consists of front and rear light bands that are able to be actuated by a computing unit of the passage control device. The front light strip is arranged between the front and circumferential sides and the rear light strip is arranged between the rear and circumferential sides such that the front light strip is visible in a plan view of the front side and the rear light strip is visible in a plan view of the rear side.
LED MODULE AND SIGN BOX
An LED module is disclosed, which includes one or more LED light sources and one or more lenses. Each lens includes a lens body. The lens body includes an inner cavity having an incident surface, an emergent surface, and a reflective surface extending between the incident surface and the emergent surface for providing total internal reflection. One LED light source is situated in the inner cavity. Light emitted from the LED light source is transmitted by the incident surface. At least portion of transmitted light by the incident surface is reflected by the reflective surface to the emergent surface so as to provide a narrow light beam angle perpendicular to a length direction of the LED module. The emergent surface has a plurality of micro structures for enlarging a light viewing angle in the length direction. A sign box using one or more LED modules is also disclosed.
MARK AND SIGN LIGHTING DEVICE, METHOD AND SYSTEM
A mark and sign illuminating device and system. The device is a device in which a transparent light guide layer (1203), a light reflecting layer (1204) and border rims (1251, 1252) are formed integrally. An LED illuminating light source LED1 and an LED illuminating light source LED2 are provided in the transparent light guide layer (1203). The reflective layer (1204) is provided with overlapping incidence of effective incident angles within the range of 360 degrees in the transverse direction and within the range of about 1 degree to about 179 degrees in the longitudinal direction, so that wide effective reflection angles and observation angles are formed. The advantage is that marks, signs and warning marks can be identified, seen and read more easily.
ILLUMINATED SIGN FOR AUDIO/VIDEO RECORDING AND COMMUNICATION DEVICES
An illuminated sign for providing a warning that an area adjacent the illuminated sign is within a field of view of an audio/video (A/V) recording and communication device. The illuminated sign may include a front panel having translucent portions and opaque portions, and an illumination source located behind the front panel. The illumination source illuminates the front panel such that the opaque portions block transmission through the front panel of at least a portion of the light from the illumination source to provide the warning that the area adjacent the illuminated sign is within the field of view of the A/V recording and communication device.
TOOL-FREE LIGHT BOX
A tool-free light box is provided. Specifically, a top profile, a bottom profile, and vertical rod profiles are spliced on the periphery to form a closed frame. Each profile is provided with two or more hollow cavities, and each end portion of the profile is provided with two or more round holes. An inner wall of the profile is provided with a notch connected to a wiring profile, and a wire passes through a hollow cavity of the wiring profile. Two ends of the wire are connected to a conductive insertion hole, and the conductive insertion hole is embedded into an end portion of the wiring profile. A connector is arranged between the profiles, and the connector is provided with a protruding end. The protruding end is inserted into the hollow cavity of the profile, and a lug boss is arranged on the protruding end.
Illuminated signs for vehicles, mounting systems therefor and related methods
A self-contained illuminated sign for mounting on a vehicle is disclosed. The sign includes a front panel, a rear panel situated opposite and substantially parallel to the front panel in spaced relation therefrom to define a space therebetween, and a light source comprising a plurality of LEDs. The light source is positioned between the front and rear panels and is configured to emit light that emanates from the front panel. The front panel is thus backlit to display indicia. A system for supporting a self-contained illuminated sign on a vehicle is also disclosed. The system includes the sign and a separate mounting frame mountable on a vehicle. The mounting frame is configured to removably receive the sign and, when the sign is received in the mounting frame, to surround a perimeter of the sign while permitting visibility of the front display area. Related methods are also disclosed.
