Abstract: A lamp for an automobile and the automobile are disclosed. According to one aspect of the present disclosure, disclosed is a lamp for an automobile, the lamp including: a light source configured to generate and emit light; and a lens array provided in front of the light source. The light, which has been emitted from the light source, is emitted to the outside via the lens array and forms a predetermined beam pattern, the lens array includes a plurality of cells provided in the front region of the lens array, and stepped portions are formed at boundaries between the plurality of cells.

Abstract: An illuminator including a bottom member having a guide face of a polygonal configuration arranged therein, a light source mounted on the guide face, a light guide member positioned inside the guide face of the polygonal configuration and optically aligned with the light source, and a top member coupled to the bottom member to protect the light source is provided.

Abstract: A backlight module includes a chassis, a printed circuit board, a light source, and a light guide plate. The chassis includes a bottom plate and a sidewall. The sidewall is disposed on at least one side of the bottom plate. The sidewall has a recess therein. At least one part of the printed circuit board is located in the recess. The light source is electrically connected to the printed circuit board. The light incident side of the light guide plate is opposite to the light emitting side of the light source.

Abstract: An innovative approach to displaying gaming machine events and advertising for a gaming console is provided by replacing the commonly-used tower light with an integrated set of game and machine event indicators. The tower light may be used to display the actual game being played or, for example, the price of the game, and can be made of transparent material with separate indicator sections conveying game machine events and related information. The tower light is preferably controlled by a controller unit, with LED lights to light up the indicators.

Abstract: In order to adjust the luminance of indicator lights of a piece of monitoring and control equipment for an airplane, the control for regulating luminous intensity of legends and displays is used to act on the luminance value of the indicator lights. When the indicator lights are illuminated in a “day” mode, the luminance of the indicator lights is independent from the regulation of the luminous intensity of legends and displays. When the indicator lights are illuminated in a “night” mode corresponding to a reduced luminance of the indicator lights relative to the “day” mode, the luminance of the indicator lights can take at least two values according to the luminous intensity regulation value of the legends and displays.

Abstract: A decorative glass for lamps comprises a fastening device formed as a single body and able to allow direct association with a lamp holder. The fastening device preferably comprises a thread formed on the inner side of a surface portion of the glass.

Abstract: An embodiment of an apparatus for holding a flame-yielding device and/or shielding one or more flame yielded thereby includes a sleeve-like body having at least one wall capable of surrounding the flame-yielding device. To hold the flame-yielding device, the at least one wall includes at least one engagement section that is removably slideable over and around the flame-yielding device to grip and hold the flame-yielding device. To shield the flame(s) of the flame-yielding device from extinguishment by air flow during normal operating conditions, the at least one wall includes multiple concave portions extending downwardly from the upper edge thereof.

Abstract: A combustible device which can be ignited to furnish warmth for comfort, heat for cooking, and light for illumination, and which may also be aesthetically pleasing. The device includes a shell formed of combustible material, which defines an updraft chamber, an intake chamber located at the lower portion of the updraft chamber and being in fluid communication with both the updraft chamber and the outside of the shell, and one or more exhaust flues located at the top of the updraft chamber. The flues also are in fluid communication with both the updraft chamber and the outside of the shell, to provide an exit for smoke and ashes formed by combustion in the updraft chamber. The updraft chamber may be tapered, so that the upper portion of the updraft chamber is narrower than the lower portion of the updraft chamber. Preferably, the combustible shell is formed with an aesthetically pleasing appearance, such as a relief shaped like a face.

Abstract: A chimney assembly for an illumination source comprises a support including a tubular hub and a set of spokes radiating out from the hub. A chimney of a transparent material is shaped and arranged to sit on the support so that the outer ends of the spokes supportively engage the inner surface of the chimney.

Abstract: A lighting device capable of lighting a surface of an observed section of a specimen sample so as to permit an object of observation of the surface to be satisfied even when the surface has relatively fine unevenness. Any one of light field illumination mainly using vertically projected light, dark field illumination mainly using laterally projected light and a combination thereof is selectively carried out with respect to the surface of the specimen sample as desired, to thereby selectively provide a lighted two-dimensional image of the surface and its lighted three-dimensional image as desired.

Abstract: An improved outdoor lantern which presents a yellow tinted sleeve to cast a color serving to repel insects normally attracted to bright lights after dusk. The sleeve is made from glass and is readily adaptable to various types or forms of lanterns and may be offered as replacement for existing lanterns or as original equipment on new lanterns. The use of the glass sleeve of the invention reduces the need for costly chemical repellants and insecticides.
