Abstract: An LED light source assembly for signage illumination includes one or more planar LED arrays located with respect to a light spreading system for uniformly distributing light onto a viewing surface. The light spreading system includes a plurality of reflectors in combination with a transverse deflector disposed directly above and in the light emanating path of a planar LED array. The transverse deflector is oriented angularly and projects at least a portion of light onto a lateral reflector of the light spreading system. In one embodiment, a heat dissipation fixture is supported external to a housing assembly for improved heat management. The LED arrays and the plurality of reflectors and transverse deflectors are affixed directly to the heat dissipation fixture.

Abstract: An illumination apparatus includes a LED assembly having a plurality of LED modules and a substrate. Each LED module includes an anode and a cathode. The substrate is generally planar and defined by a first side and a second side with the LED modules extending from the first side. The second side is defined by a heat dissipation surface, and wherein the first side is opposite the second side. The apparatus also includes a heat sink having a plurality of fins for heat dissipation. A heat input surface portion of the heat sink is bonded to the heat dissipation surface of the LED assembly. The apparatus further includes a control system for supplying electrical energy to the LED assembly, wherein the electrical energy is pulse width modulated.

Abstract: A fluorescent light fixture is disclosed which is modular in construction and capable of accommodating different types and numbers of light tubes. The light fixture includes a first and a second socket bridge which include a plurality of socket mounting holes in a first and a second row to accommodate different lengths of light tubes as well as varying numbers and locational positions of the light tubes in the fixture.

Abstract: A modular visor attachment fastener (10) secures a visor mounting bracket (90) to an automobile frame (62) with a headliner (80) disposed therebetween. The fastener (10) includes a plurality of equilaterally disposed mounting latches (30) which are received in slots (74) provided in the frame (62). Each mounting latch includes a tab (36) in juxtaposition to a leg (44) with a fastening aperture (32) disposed therebetween. Each leg (44) is deflectably mounted to the frame (62). Insertion of a pin-type fastener (110) through the bracket (90) and into the fastening aperture (32) deflects a flat portion (50) of the leg (44) to further secure the fastener (10) to the frame (62). The fastener (10) may also be provided with concentrically disposed stand-off ribs (26) to properly position the fastener (10) and re-distribute harmful torque forces.
