  • Publication number: 20240377573
    Abstract: An LED display system configured with peripheral light guides is disclosed. The system includes a PCB with a topside array of forward-facing LEDs emitting forward light, and a bottom side peripheral pattern of backward-facing LEDs emitting backward light. The backward light may be redirected to the forward direction around the perimeter of the LED display by a peripheral pattern of light guide elements. In this way, the light guide elements provide the outermost peripheral pixels of the LED display system.

  • Publication number: 20150354802
    Abstract: Underwater LED lights with enhanced cooling to allow the use of substantial numbers of high power LEDs. In all embodiments, the majority of the heat given off by the LEDs is transferred to the housing of the underwater light by heat transfer techniques other than by convection of the air or other gases within the enclosure, providing direct heat conveyance from the LEDs to or through the light enclosure walls, by conduction through a thermal conductor or by or as augmented by heat pipes to the inside wall of the enclosure or through the wall of the enclosure to the water. Various embodiments are disclosed.

  • Patent number: 8590183
    Abstract: A fluid vortex display device includes a cylindrical vessel sealed at an upper end. A first fluid inlet is coupled to the cylindrical vessel adjacent a lower end of the vessel and directed at a substantial angle to an outer circumference of the cylindrical vessel. A discharge outlet of a pump is coupled to the fluid inlet. A closure is coupled to the lower end of the vessel. The closure includes a fluid outlet that is substantially spaced apart from a central longitudinal axis of the vessel. The closure may project into the cylindrical vessel to create an annular space adjacent the fluid inlet. The fluid outlet may be in the upper surface of the closure, which may not be perpendicular to the central longitudinal axis of the vessel. A support stand may support the vessel such that it is not perpendicular to a level foundation surface.
