  • Patent number: 11077788
    Abstract: A method for controlling and switching operational modes of an additional lamp for a vehicle includes confirming a pre-set operating mode of the additional lamp. The additional lamp is switched from the pre-set operating mode to another operating mode only when a continuous first signal and intermittent plural second signals come from the vehicle. When the brake is operating and the additional lamp is in a non-flickering mode, the additional lamp generates non-flickering light. When the brake is operating and the additional lamp is in the flickering mode, the additional lamp generates flickering light. The additional lamp is turned off when the braking operation stops. When the braking operation continues and the additional lamp is in the flickering mode, the additional lamp keeps outputting flickering light. When the braking operation continues and the additional lamp is in the non-flickering mode, the additional lamp keeps outputting non-flickering light.

  • Patent number: 10589675
    Abstract: A blind spot area warning and illustrating device includes a light guiding member including a light output face and a light incident face having grooves. The light guiding member further includes an operating face opposite to the light output face and having reflective faces. Each reflective face is at an acute angle to the light output face. A cover is mounted around the light guiding member. The light output face of the light guiding member is aligned with a light transmitting area of a mirror of a side view mirror. A light emitting diode lamp is mounted in the cover and is aligned with the light incident face. When the light emitting diode lamp is activated to emit light, the grooves diffuse the light emitted by the light emitting diode lamp, and the reflective faces reflect the diffused light to uniformly pass outwardly through the light output face.
