  • Patent number: 7461943
    Abstract: This invention relates to garden lights, and more specifically toward garden lights using light emitting diodes to emit light through one or more fiber optic elements that are housed inside of a transparent tube. The fiber optic elements can be of various lengths, providing light that exits the fiber optic elements at different locations along the length of the transparent tube. Further, the light emitting diodes can be of different colors, rendering a pleasing effect of light in intensity, color, and location.

  • Publication number: 20080152287
    Abstract: A fiber optic light device includes a power supply, circuit control, light source, fiber optic bunch, and base. The power supply includes a power supply transformer and power cord. The light source can be formed by LEDs or tungsten filament bulbs. The fiber optic bunch is comprised of a bunch of fiber optic elements. Each fiber optic element comprises an outer tubing, preferably plastic, containing a piece of wire surrounded by at least one fiber optic cable, which may have several fiber optics. The wire supports the fiber optic element so that it can be bent into various shapes. The lower end of the fiber optic bunch is closely positioned to the light source so light emitted by the light source and transmitted through the fiber optics produce light spots throughout the fiber optic element. A flashing control circuit can cause the light emitted to be constant or flashing.
