  • Patent number: 9429297
    Abstract: A backlight refraction lens includes a body formed with an incident face and an emergent face, wherein the incident face has a raised periphery and an axis formed with an angle with an axis of the body, the angle, between the axis of the incident face and the axis of the body, set between 35 degrees to 65 degrees such that the ray light going into the body along an incident angle within 15-45 degrees is mostly projected from the emergent face after being refracted. The backlight refraction lens promotes the visibility and identification of objects on the outdoor kanban board when the outdoor kanban board is in a backlight condition such that the conventional LEDs are unnecessary to the outdoor kanban board that has a series of backlight refraction lens in accordance with the present invention mounted thereon.

  • Patent number: 9159252
    Abstract: A hanging luminous frame of a traffic sign plate includes elementary frame sections, each being a long hollow enclosure which defines a luminous frame surface and a concave back side, wherein the concave back side is to be supported against the marking surface of the traffic sign plate. Connecting edges allow the elementary frame sections to be connected to each other and form a frame. Luminous through holes are distributed over the luminous frame surfaces. Waterproof transparent covers have a housing enclosure part, a transparent covering part and a fitting and positioning part. LED lighting components have a circuit base plate, LED components and conductor wires, wherein the LED lighting component is held inside the waterproof transparent cover. A waterproof layer is filled in the housing enclosure parts to seal the inside circuit base plate. Positioning and reinforcing edges provide a stable locking interface for the locking and positioning component.

  • Publication number: 20130301138
    Abstract: A marking board with back-focusing and brightness enhancement effect has a board body having a plate-type pattern to define a marking surface and a rear surface. Of which the marking surface is provided with a marking portion. Multiple through-holes are arranged at interval within the range of the marking portion on the marking surface of the board. Multiple light-focusing lenses are installed on the rear surface of the board body correspondingly to the through-holes. The light focusing lenses include a transparent protruding end, a light-focusing member and at least a positioning member. The sunlight or preset light source could be back-focused via said light-focusing lens, and transmitted via the marking surface, so as to enhance the brightness, promote the identification effect of the marking portion and significantly reduce the cost with better applicability and industrial and economic benefits.
