Abstract: A cover for a flashlight handle comprising at least one heating coil positioned proximate to the handle so that heat generated by the heating coil warms the area gripped by a user. In the preferred embodiment, the heating coil is disposed within a flexible sleeve which is attached to the flashlight handle so that at least a portion of the flashlight handle is disposed within the flexible sleeve. A power source is preferably disposed within the flashlight handle. A switch in electrical communication with the power source and the heating coil is operative to enable a user to providing power to the heating coils.

Abstract: A high power image projector includes a plurality of rows of spaced-apart cooling fins on the exterior surface of its light source reflector. The cooling fins are offset relative to adjacent cooling fins, thus disrupting the thermodynamic boundary layer of cooling air flowing over the reflector surface with a shroud. Thus the high-power projector can be adequately cooled with cooling air or other gases, without the need for a liquid cooling system.

Abstract: A color display device for emitting, in operation, red, blue and green light having a substrate provided with a black matrix and only blue and red color filter layers.

Abstract: The headlight has a light source (10) and a reflector (12) by which light is reflected to a light guiding or deflecting device (18). The light guiding device (18) has a number, advantageousely from a few hundred to a hundred thousand, of individual reflecting elements (22) which are movable independently of each other between at least two different positions. Each reflecting element (22) is connected with an electrically operable adjusting element (26) which is controlled by a controller (30). The light reflected from the reflector (12) is reflectable from the light guide device (18) to form a light beam issuing from the lighting device. Reflected light from each reflecting element (22) in one of its positions forms a part of the light beam and does not contribute to the light beam in one of its other positions.

Abstract: In order to reduce the address voltage in a gas discharge type display pane, the address electrodes in the display panel are formed on the barrier ribs. Further, a fluorescent layer is coated on the wall surface of the barrier ribs thereby suppressing erroneous light emission or degradation of the fluorescent layer during address discharge.

Abstract: A picture illuminating device for mounting on the wall above the picture, or on the back of the picture frame. The device utilizes a fluorescent light tube to produce uniform lighting and is powered by conventional or rechargeable batteries which eliminates the requirement of electrical outlets and the spectacle of exposed electrical cords extending down the wall. The device is composed of a stem and a shade. The shade houses the fluorescent light tube, batteries and the electronic circuit that converts the direct current from the batteries to the alternating current required to power the fluorescent light tube. The shade includes a reflector which is configured to mount the fluorescent light tube and batteries so that the shade covers the fluorescent light tube adequately to prevent any glare from the front while presenting the look of a conventional, corded picture lamp.

Abstract: A panel used for a surface light source device is constituted by a transparent substrate having high light transmission properties, the transparent substrate having an end surface on which light emitted from a light source is incident, a reflecting surface for reflecting the incident light, and a light emitting surface for emitting the incident light. The end surface on which the light is incident may be formed in a concave-convex shape in the direction of its end side.
