Abstract: An illumination device 12 according to the present invention includes a linear light source 17, a chassis 14 that houses the linear light source 17, and a spacer 41 that is provided between the linear light source 17 and the chassis 14 so as to separate the linear light source 17 from the chassis 14. The spacer 41 is arranged under the linear light source 17 on the chassis 14 when viewed in plan. Since the spacer 41 is provided between the linear light source 17 and the chassis 14 so as to maintain a distance therebetween over a predetermined distance, the spacer 41 does not overlap the linear light source 17. Therefore, dark areas are less likely to be present on the linear light source 17 and thus uniformity of illumination luminance distribution can be ensured.

Abstract: The disclosed bridge seal includes a substantially rigid bridge component and flexible gutter seal arranged to span the openings between adjacent housing modules of a modular warning light assembly such as a lightbar. The bridge seal physically connects the adjacent ends of base and dome components to each other and defines a fluid flow channel to guide water away from the area between housing modules. The disclosed bridge seal integrates discrete housing modules into a connected weather resistant enclosure having a longitudinal path for control and power distribution conductors extending the length of the lightbar.
