Abstract: The invention provides a searchlight device for a recreational boat or other suitable vehicle, vessel or device, featuring a housing for mounting on the recreational boat or other suitable vehicle, vessel or device; a light arranged in the housing, responsive to a light control signal, for projecting bright illuminating light; and a low lux video camera also arranged in the housing, responsive to images in near total darkness, for providing a video camera signal containing information about the images in near total darkness, for allowing close quarter maneuvering in dim light without the need to activate the bright illuminating light so that an operator of the vehicle, vessel or other suitable device may operate safely while maintaining night vision and not impairing the vision of nearby vehicle, vessel or other suitable device.

Abstract: A searchlight is provided featuring a bezel pull-in retention assembly having a frame and a housing. The frame has a back plate configured with at least one opening to receive a fastening device. The housing is configured with a front end opening for receiving the frame, configured with a back end opening having an outer rim for receiving a seal plate, the seal plate configured to be adapted in the rim of the back end opening, to receive the fastening device and to fixedly couple the frame to the housing.

Abstract: A searchlight is provided featuring a searchlight having a searchlight assembly and a searchlight control circuitry module. The searchlight assembly has a central axis and includes a ramped insert and a light source socket arrangement. The ramped insert is configured with an angled surface that is oblique in relation to the central axis. The light source socket arrangement is configured to receive a bulb or light source for providing the light beam, is also configured with a corresponding angled surface that is also oblique in relation with to the central axis, and is also configured to respond to an applied force and rotate so as to move axially along the central axis in relation to the ramped insert.

Abstract: The present invention provides a new and unique searchlight featuring a bayonet/security locking and mounting system, or a controller having a center home position, or a controller having a 2-speed joystick, or some combination of one or more of these features.

Abstract: The present invention provides rocking motion charging device using Faraday's principle. The rocking motion charging device features at least three rocking devices for generating electricity and a gimbaled disk or member coupled to the at least three rocking devices, responsive to a rocking motion, for moving in two dimensions to generate the electricity. The at least three rocking devices may include pivots, linkage or both for pivotally coupling to the gimbaled disk or member; include magnets that pass through stationary coils due to the rocking motion of the gimbaled disk or member and generate electricity due to Faraday's principle; include four rocking devices that are equi-spaced with respect to one another; include one or more devices to store the electricity, including batteries or capacitors; or some combination thereof. The two dimensions include movement both forwards and backwards and side-to-side, including movement caused by the rocking motion of a marine vessel.

Abstract: The filter of the present invention overcomes the aforementioned problems by separating gas and solid particulate matter from liquid as the wellbore fluid passes through the filter. The apparatus comprises a solid tube encased in a perforated tube which extends beyond the end of the solid tube. A top cap is attached to one end of each tube and holds the tubes concentric to each other. A bottom cap is attached to the end of the perforated tube which extends beyond the solid tube. An annulus is defined by the inner surface of the perforated tube and the outer surface of the solid tube. The top cap has a bore extending therethrough which is in fluid communication with the solid tube. The filter is generally used in conjunction with a low volume pump located adjacent to and in fluid communication with the top cap. As the pump operates, wellbore fluid is drawn through the perforations of the perforated tube into the annulus between the perforated and solid tubes.

Abstract: A horn for connection to a pressurized fluid container for sounding multiple tones has a horn body defining a sound chamber and at least one tone altering aperture extending through the horn body into the sound chamber, a sound producing mechanism located within the horn body adjacent the sound chamber, and a trigger assembly for actuating the pressurized fluid container for release of pressurized fluid to flow through the sound producing mechanism into the sound chamber to produce a sound. The horn, when the trigger mechanism is actuated, produces sound having a first tone when the tone altering aperture is unobstructed and a second tone when the aperture is obstructed.
