Abstract: A solar battery indicator apparatus utilizing a capacitor for accumulating electrical power generated by the solar battery and light emitting diodes for emitting light on the basis of the electrical power supplied from the capacitor. An indicator body makes a prescribed indication on its front surface through the use of optical fibers. Several bundles of optical fibers are utilized with each bundle being associated with a plurality of optical fibers having one of their ends disposed to face an associated one of the light emitting diodes and the other end of each of the bundles of fibers being associated with a particular indicator. The configuration of optical fiber bundles utilize a control portion for controlling light emitting states of respective individual light emitting diodes.

Abstract: A solar lighting apparatus according to the present inveniton is configured so that one lighting prism plate is rotatably arranged in a lighting portion or a plurality of lighting prism plates are rotatably arranged in the lighting portion at intervals of a predetermined distance, and a prism angle of each the lighting prism plate is controlled correspondingly to the height and azimuth of the sun so that the sunlight refracted by the lighting prism plates goes out in a predetermined direction. Therefor, the lighting prism plates and parts relevant thereto are formed under predetermined conditions.A solar lighting controller in a solar lighting apparatus operated under predetermined conditions for improvement of lighting efficiency, reduction of consumed electric power, etc., the controller comprising a solar position detector, a central processing unit including an arithmetic operation storage means such as a micro computer and a necessary means such as an optical axis sensor.
