6533444 - Lighting directional sign for vehicle signal light

A lighting directional sign includes a L-shaped illuminating unit including a casing, an illuminator protected by the casing, and an electric input connector provided on the casing and electrically connected with the illuminator, wherein the illuminating unit is disposed in a lamp chamber of a vehicle signal light and electrically connected with a power outlet of the vehicle signal light. The illuminating unit is aligned as an arrowhead shape in such a manner when the vehicle signal light is switched on, the illuminating unit is automatically switched on in order to signify the further motion of the vehicle.

7229197 - Vehicle side mirror apparatus - Owned by Toyoda Gosei Co., Ltd. (Nishikasugai-gun, Aichi-ken,JP)

A vehicle side mirror apparatus for looking backward circumstances of a vehicle has: a housing that is of a transparent or semitransparent material with a cross section having a predetermined thickness, the housing having a light entering end into which light enters, and a light radiating end that faces the back of the vehicle; and an LED lamp that is disposed in the vicinity of the light entering end. Light emitted from the LED lamp enters into the light entering end of the housing, passing through within the cross section, being radiated to the back of the vehicle from the light radiating end of the housing.

6918685 - Mirror with integrated signaling assembly - Owned by K. W. Muth Company, Inc. (Sheboygan, WI)

A signaling assembly having a reflective substrate with opposite first and second surfaces, and wherein each of the surfaces simultaneously reflects visibly discernable eleotromagnetic radiation and passes electromagnetic radiation; and an emitter for emitting visibly discernable electromagnetic radiation is provided, and wherein the emitted visibly discernable electromagnetic radiation may be simultaneously viewed from locations forward of the opposite first and second surfaces of the reflective substrate.

6572250 - Exterior mirror having an attachment member including an approach light - Owned by Britax Wingard Limited (Warwick,GB) Britax Rainsford Pty Limited (Lonsdale,AU)

An exterior mirror assembly including an attachment member for supporting an approach light. The attachment member interconnects a mirror housing to a vehicle and includes an opening for receiving a lens. Light projects through the lens from the attachment member in order to illuminate a predetermined area in proximity to the vehicle. A light source may be housed within the support member or, alternatively, a light source may be housed interior to the vehicle and a light path transports light from the light source to the lens for projection from the support member.

6749325 - Signaling assembly - Owned by K.W. Muth Company (Sheboygan, WI)

A signaling assembly is disclosed and which includes a reflective substrate having opposite first and second surfaces, and wherein the reflective substrate simultaneously reflects visibly discernible electromagnetic radiation, and passes visibly discernible electromagnetic radiation; a plurality of electromagnetic radiation emitters which are borne by the second surface and which, when energized, emit electromagnetic radiation; and a reflector is borne by the second surface and which directs the electromagnetic radiation emitted by some of the electromagnetic radiation emitters in a direction so that it may pass through the reflective substrate and be viewed from a location forward of the first surface, and the electromagnetic radiation emitted by a remainder of the electromagnetic radiation emitters in a direction so that it may be viewed from a location forward of the second surface.
