Abstract: This invention relates to circuits for operation over a range of voltages, more particularly for a vehicle lamp circuit that provides lighting over a range of voltages. The invention provides a circuit that allows the operation of an LED array lamp over a range of voltage. This is achieved by making use of three-terminal adjustable regulators. One of the three-terminal regulators is configured as a voltage regulator. It regulates the voltage by a connection to a voltage divider. A second three-terminal regulator is connected to the voltage regulator. The second regulator is configured to be a current regulator with the current set by one resistor. This circuit can be further modified with additional adjustable three-terminal regulators to increase in functionality.

Abstract: The present invention is a vehicular combination marker/clearance lamp for trucks and trailers using a reduced number of light-emitting diodes and an optics design using total internal reflection to produce the light intensity and angular distribution required by the Department of Transportation. The present invention accomplishes this goal by utilizing a one-piece optical system. The system possesses a collimating lens, ribbed structures, and a modified conical shape, which will concentrate and distribute the light produced by the light-emitting diodes.

Abstract: A vehicle lamp unit is disclosed that utilizes a high intensity discharge bulb for high beam, low beam and fog/driving lamps. The lamp uses reflectors and shields to selectively block light emitted from the HID bulb and to direct the light into a desired pattern. A control device is utilized to move the shields into various desired light blocking positions. Lamps of various shapes can be fabricated using the shield system by using optics to direct light into diverse preferred patterns.

Abstract: A marker lamp for vehicles that combines a global positioning system (GPS) antenna and a cellular antenna. The marker lamp uses light emitting diodes as light sources. The lens of the present invention utilizes two sets of optical elements, one set collimates and spread the light from the light emitting diodes and the second set reflects light from outside sources. Both sets of optics contribute to produce a marker lamp with the required light intensity and distribution according to industry standards. The marker lamp conceals a GPS antenna and/or a cellular antenna to help track and direct the vehicle during travel and to facilitate communication with the vehicle operator. The GPS tracking system and cellular components are at least partially by the marker lamp.
