Appl. No.:

11/088665

Inventors:

Daniel J. Mathieu - Sheboygan Falls WI, US
Daniel R. Todd - Sheboygan WI, US
Allen A. Bukosky - Sheboygan WI, US

Assignee:

K.W. Muth Company - Sheboygan WI

International Classification:

B60Q 1/26
B60R 1/12

US Classification:

362494, 362545, 340475

Abstract:

A signal assembly is described and which includes a mirror which is operable to reflect, and pass electromagnetic radiation; a circuit substrate having a plurality of electrically conductive pathways which is borne on same; a light emitting device borne by the circuit substrate, and which, when energized, emits visibly discernable electromagnetic radiation which passes by each of the circuit substrate and the mirror; and an electrically actuated assembly, such as a heater, which may be electrically coupled with a source of electricity by way of the circuit substrate.

Appl. No.:

11/257556

Inventors:

Daniel J. Mathieu - Sheboygan Falls WI, US

Assignee:

K.W. Muth Company, Inc. - Sheboygan WI

International Classification:

F21S 8/10

US Classification:

362540, 362516

Abstract:

A signaling assembly is described which includes a semitransparent mirror, an opaque layer attached to the semitransparent mirror, a reflector member positioned within an aperture defined by the opaque layer; a circuit board defining an aperture through which visible light can pass, and which is positioned in spaced relation relative to the semitransparent mirror; and an electromagnetic radiation emitter mounted on the rear surface of the circuit board and which emits visible light which is passed by the circuit board and an opaque layer and which is reflected from the reflector member so as to form a visibly discernable signal which is passed by the semitransparent mirror.

Appl. No.:

11/326058

Inventors:

Daniel J. Mathieu - Sheboygan Falls WI, US

Assignee:

K.W. Muth Company, Inc. - Sheboygan WI

International Classification:

B60Q 1/26

US Classification:

362492, 362494

Abstract:

A signaling assembly is described and which includes a semitransparent mirror; a reflector housing, defining a cavity, and which is juxtaposed relative to the semitransparent mirror; and an electromagnetic radiation emitter positioned in the reflector housing and which, when energized, predominantly emits visibly discernable electromagnetic radiation which travels substantially, laterally, outwardly relative to the emitter, and which is reflected by the reflector housing so as to subsequently pass through the semitransparent mirror to form a visibly discernable signal.

Abstract:

A signaling assembly for use on an overland vehicle is shown and described, and which includes an exterior mirror housing defining an internal cavity, and which is mounted on a side of the overland vehicle; a semitransparent mirror having forward and rearward facing surfaces, and which is mounted on the mirror housing; a focusing optic mounted in the exterior mirror housing and juxtaposed relative to the rearward facing surface of the semitransparent mirror; and an emitter of visible light mounted in the internal cavity of the exterior mirror housing and juxtaposed relative to the focusing optic, and which further, when energized, emits visible light which passes through the semitransparent mirror, and which can be seen at an angle which is about 60 degrees relative to the side of the overland vehicle.

Inventors:

Daniel Mathieu - Sheboygan Falls WI, US
Daniel Todd - Sheboygan WI, US

International Classification:

G02F001/15

US Classification:

359265000

Abstract:

An electromagnetic radiation assembly is described and which includes, a supporting substrate having a region through which visibly discernable electromagnetic radiation forming a signal may pass; first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters are provided and which are positioned adjacent to one of the surfaces defined by the substrate, and which, when energized, emit electromagnetic radiation; and a single reflector is disposed in eccentric reflecting relation relative to the first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters, and wherein emitted electromagnetic radiation is reflected by the single reflector and passes through the supporting substrate region which passes electromagnetic radiation, in different directions.

Appl. No.:

12/973457

Inventors:

Daniel J. Mathieu - Sheboygan Falls WI, US

International Classification:

F21V 29/00

US Classification:

362294

Abstract:

An LED lamp has a front facing heat sink. The lamp has one or more LEDs paired with reflectors that direct the light produced by the LEDs out the front of the lamp. The lamp heat sink is configured to dissipate the excess heat generated by the LEDs toward the front of the lamp.
