  • Publication number: 20060130253
    Abstract: A toothbrush includes a head assembly with bristles, a base assembly, and a connector which connects the two. A battery and light assembly are disposed in the connector and base assembly, and a power button switch turns the power to a light source “ON/OFF”. The base assembly includes a transparent lens portion at the distal end, through which a light beam from the light source shines when the switch is turned ON. The light beam can project a picture or icon on a slide through the lens portion onto a remote surface. The slide can be permanently fixed in the base assembly or interchangeable. A timer is connected to the batteries, light source, and switch, and allows the light source to turn on for a predetermined period of time. Alternatively, the base assembly contains at least one indicator light which indicates how long the light source has been ON.

  • Patent number: 6379018
    Abstract: A portable, illuminated, drinking vessel assembly for receiving a variety of sizes of liquid containing drinking vessels, such as an infant's bottle. The assembly comprises a generally circular, vessel receiving housing formed of a light-weight material, such as may be molded of a semi-rigid foam. The housing includes a base having a central cavity mounting a light and power source. Further, the housing includes an upstanding circular side wall terminating in an annular surface to define a vessel receiving recess. Within the wall are plural radially and upwardly extending, light transmitting, fiber optic filament segments. The respective segments extend from positions in close proximity to the light to the annular surface. By the use of a movable wheel, having different color filters, between the light and the respective filament segments, movement of the wheel effects a changing color light pattern about the annular surface.
