US Patent:

20060209542, Sep 21, 2006

Filed:

Mar 18, 2005

Appl. No.:

11/084334

Inventors:

Craig Anderson - Tukwila WA, US
Dennis Anderson - Boise ID, US
William Cresse - Boise ID, US

Assignee:

Preco Electronics, Inc. - Boise ID

International Classification:

F21V 33/00

US Classification:

362253000

Abstract:

A rotating beacon employs an array of LEDs mounted on a rotor assembly in a pattern for unidirectional emission wherein the LEDs are excited through noncontact inductive coupling between a load coupling on the rotor assembly and a source coupling on the stator or mount element. In a particular embodiment, a primary sender flat coil of an air gap transformer is disposed concentrically forming a disc and mounted juxtaposed to a secondary receiver flat coil so that power can be conveyed across the air gap while the rotor is in motion. The transferred power excites substantially all of the LED array in a fixed pattern on the rotating mount. In a second embodiment, the air gap transformer has a primary sender coil is mounted coaxially with a secondary receiver coil (which is typically but not necessarily inside the primary coil), so the secondary, with the array can freely rotate and draw power from the source.

International Classification:

H01R 3306

US Classification:

362226

Abstract:

A light unit having a lower plastic base which is adapted to be fixedly mounted to the exterior of a vehicle, and an upper globe which is screwed to the base. Located inside the light unit is a horizontal circuit board which is connected to the floor of the base by a number of upstanding fasteners. The floor of the plastic base is melded to the metal fasteners each of which includes an upper shaft portion to which the circuit board is secured in electrical contact, and a lower head portion which is located outside the base and which is connected to the vehicle electrical supply to provide electrical power to a light tube inside the globe. The circuit board is removed from the fasteners without having to remove the base from the vehicle or without having to disconnect the electrical wires from the fasteners.

International Classification:

F21V 2302

US Classification:

362226

Abstract:

A lamp assembly (10) for use with equipment such as construction vehicles and heavy trucks that are subjected to prolonged, intense vibrations. The lamp assembly of this invention includes a socket (14) formed by a shell (42). A sealed enclosure, in the form of a lamp housing (12), is releasably secured in the shell. The light source, such as a gas-discharge tube (16) or a set of LEDs (72) is located inside the lamp housing. A transformer primary winding (20), which is attached to a power source (56), is attached to the outside of the shell. A transformer secondary winding (22) connected across the light source is located inside the lamp housing. The secondary winding is located so that the lamp housing is seated in the socket, adjacent the primary winding. When a voltage is applied across the primary winding, an inductive voltage develops across the secondary winding. The voltage developed across the secondary winding is applied to the light source, which results in its energization and the emission of light thereby.
