  • Combination clearance and marker light assembly
    Patent number: 6095663
    Abstract: A light assembly, comprising a planar substrate containing a plurality of light sources mounted perpendicularly thereto, each of the light sources operatively arranged to emit light outwardly from the source at a solid first angle which is less than 2.pi. steradians, and, a light directing element mounted to the planar substrate and operatively arranged to direct the light emitted from each of the plurality of light sources into a beam which subtends from the source at a second angle which is greater than the first angle in at least two dimensions. In a preferred embodiment of the light assembly, the light directing element is a reflector. The light assembly of the subject invention is especially suited for use as combination of a truck clearance and marker light assembly.
