Abstract: A light reflector arrangement providing a light output having substantially uniform luminous intensity is disclosed. The light reflector arrangement includes at least one light emitting diode (LED) light source. For each light source, the light reflector arrangement includes a first reflector configured to receive light from the light source and reflect said light towards a second reflector such that light reflected from the second reflector has substantially uniform luminance observable from a single direction. For example, the second reflector has light scattering means for removing directionality of light reflected from the second reflector. The light reflector arrangement may further include a lens configured to receive the light reflected from the second reflector. The lens preferably has a light diffusing surface such that light output through the lens has a substantially uniform luminance observable from more than one direction.

Abstract: A two layer garment system having an outer layer and a trilaminate inner layer sewn together is used to manufacture fire retardant, or firefighting, textile products, e.g., jackets, pants, gloves, bags and totes. The layers of the trilaminate inner liner insulate, water proof, and provide a face cloth for the firefighting textile product. In the preferred embodiment, the outer layer comprises a woven melamine paraaramid fiber blend blend having a density of about 7.5 ounces per square yard. The inner liner comprises three layers laminated together. A first layer of the inner liner for insulating the firefighting textile product comprises about 6 ounces per square yard of melamine aramid fiber blend knit. A second layer of the inner liner for water proofing the firefighting textile product comprises a commercially available, vapor-permeable moisture membrane material,.

The layers of the trilaminate inner liner insulate, water proof, and provide a face cloth for the firefighting textile product. In the preferred embodiment, the outer layer comprises a Basofil blend having a density of about 7.5 ounces per square yard. The inner liner comprises three layers laminated together. A first layer of the inner liner for insulating the firefighting textile product comprises about 6 ounces per square yard of Basofil blend knit. A second layer of the inner liner for water proofing the firefighting textile product comprises a commercially available, vapor-permeable moisture membrane material, e.g., Stedair 2000®. The third layer of the inner liner for providing a face cloth for the firefighting textile product comprises about 2 ounces per square yard of Nomex knit.
