  • Publication number: 20240136134
    Abstract: An electrical protection device of circuit-breaker type including a casing, a severing system, positioned in the casing, configured to assume inactivated and activated states corresponding to the on and off states of the electrical protection device, respectively, and a connection system configured to assume an open state in which it allows the electrical cable to be inserted and a second, closed state in which it surrounds the electrical cable. The connection system and the severing system are configured and arranged such that, when the connection system is in the closed state, the severing system severs the electrical cable when passing from the inactivated state to the activated state.

  • Publication number: 20030103353
    Abstract: An indicator light for a motor vehicle includes a divider screen adapted to divide a light beam into a plurality of elementary light beams which are then added together downstream of the dividing screen. A first coloring means, for coloring some of the elementary light beams, is located at a distance from the divider screen. The light unit includes a second coloring means adapted to color at least some of the elementary light beams, the second coloring means being spaced away from the divider screen and the first coloring means.

  • Patent number: 6464382
    Abstract: Lighting apparatus for a motor vehicle, for illuminating or signalling purposes, comprises a light source cooperating with optical diffusing means. The diffusing means comprise a plate through which the light passes from the light source. The mass of this plate is made of a transparent first material having a first refractive index, and in which are embedded inclusions of a transparent second material having a different refractive index.
