Patents by Inventor Eike Berg

Eike Berg has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Patent number: 9180896
    Abstract: A signal transmitter contains at least one first luminous element, at least one second luminous element and an interface for connecting the signal transmitter to a signal box. A drive device is connected between the interface and the at least two luminous elements and the drive device is configured in such a way that, in the case of a switch-on signal coming from the signal box for the second luminous element, the drive device controls the activation of the luminous element depending on the signaling state of the first luminous element.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 5, 2012
    Date of Patent: November 10, 2015
    Assignee: Siemens Aktiengesellschaft
    Inventors: Eike Berg, Andre Gruettner, Norbert Poepplow, Olaf Vogt
  • Patent number: 8933814
    Abstract: An LED light signal, in particular an LED railway light signal, contains a signal generator for generating varicolored light spots. The LEDs are embodied as multicolor LEDs, in particular RGB LEDs—Red/Yellow/Blue LEDs. In order to be able to utilize the possibilities for color mixing and thus for realizing a large number of color variants for safety-relevant signaling technology, the signal generator has at least one optical sensor for monitoring a color locus and a light intensity reliably in terms of signaling technology.
