  • Publication number: 20100165605
    Abstract: An illuminating headlamp consisting of a headband and at least one optical device providing illumination at a known distance from said optical device attached to said headband. Each optical device consists of a housing having an open first end and an open second end. There is a light emitting device attached to a mounting which is attached to the second end causing said light emitting device to be orientated at a known angle to an axis of said housing. At least one optically transparent lens is incorporated into said first end, and a means for adjusting said optically transparent lens in order to cause a focal point of the lens to be positioned behind said light emitting device, wherein a zone of substantially uniform illumination is projected at said known distance.

  • Publication number: 20080291687
    Abstract: A filter assembly includes a mounting element for receiving and mounting on a forward portion of a headlight, and a central opening, and a frame rotatably coupled to the mounting element, the frame having an optical filter for selectively blocking wavelengths below a first limit from the optical path between the source and the output. The frame is rotatable between a closed position in which the filter substantially covers the central opening of the mounting element, and an open position in which the central opening of the mounting element is substantially open. Both the mounting element and the frame have a central axis through their respective openings, which axis is substantially the central axis of light being emitted from a headlight when the filter assembly is mounted on a headlight.

  • Patent number: 6616317
    Abstract: A remote light source device for generating light which is transmitted to a light emitting device of an illumination system by a fiberoptic cable coupled between the light source device and the light emitting device. The light source device includes a light source and a cover or housing containing the light source, the cover or housing having a light orifice aligned with the light source. A fiberoptic cable coupler assembly is mounted to an exterior surface of the cover or housing adjacent the light orifice. The coupler assembly permits removable coupling of a fiberoptic cable to the device, the coupler assembly also being operative for aligning an end of the cable with the light orifice of the cover or housing so that light generated by the light source is received at the end of the cable for transmission thereby. Structures are provided for preventing the fiberoptic cable coupler assembly from becoming substantially heated by the light source.
