  • Patent number: 9943040
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for a horticultural light for use in a horticultural facility that projects a substantially uniform target illuminance onto a flat surface or that projects increasing target illuminance onto a flat surface that increases as the beam angle increases with respect to the optical axis. A lens array of the horticultural light mechanically maintains an optimal separation distance between each LED of the horticultural light and the corresponding lens of the lens array. Each lens of the lens array receives the raw light distribution from the LED and then distributes an optically varied distribution having a nominal centerbeam intensity with an increasing beam intensity as the beam width increases. As the distance to target increases, so does the intensity of the light distribution, which projects a substantially uniform target illuminance, or an increasing target illuminance with increasing angle of incidence, onto a flat surface.

  • Publication number: 20170334343
    Abstract: A terrain viewing apparatus is provided to enable greater viewability of environmental conditions around a vehicle. A housing of the terrain viewing apparatus may include a lighting apparatus for emitting light and illuminating environmental conditions during nighttime, dusk, or adverse weather conditions. The housing may further include a reflecting apparatus to increase an operator's ability to view environmental conditions outside the vehicle. One or more joints may enable the housing to be adjustable with respect to the vehicle. An internal joint may enable the reflecting apparatus to be adjustable with respect to the housing. The lighting apparatus may receive power from the vehicle. The lighting and reflecting apparatuses may be electrically coupled to the vehicle and may be controllable therefrom.

  • Patent number: 9308974
    Abstract: A drying rack includes a coupling mechanism configured to couple to a boat, a supporting member pivotably coupled to the coupling mechanism, and at least one hanger coupled to the supporting member and configured to hang a wet material to dry. The supporting member pivots, relative to the coupling mechanism, to a plurality of positions, at least one position allowing a longest length of the at least one hanger to be positioned substantially parallel to a deck of the boat. In implementations a cross member is coupled to the supporting member such that a longest length of the cross member is substantially perpendicular to a longest length of the supporting member. In implementations the cross member pivots, relative to the supporting member, to a plurality of positions, at least one position allowing a longest length of the cross member to be positioned substantially parallel to the deck of the boat.
