Abstract: An infant crib mobile wherein the objects or characters attached to its appendages, or any point on the appendages, can emit active, (twinkling or sequencing) colorful light. This is accomplished by utilizing optic fibers to transmit light from a light source in the mobile's central housing to the objects or characters, or a given location on the appendages. The light is made active and colorful at the output end of the optic fibers by placing a light influencing slide between the light source and the input end of the revolving optic fibers that are routed from the appendages and are grouped together in front of the light source.

Abstract: A lamp device includes a lamp-holding member having a first and a second half portion each having an annular member, with a central opening and a plurality of channel members which extend radially from the annular member. Each of the channel members of the first half portion mates with the channel member of the second half portions to define a socket for holding a lamp. A plurality of conducting members are positioned among the channel members of the lamp-holding member and are electrically connected with the lamps mounted to the lamp-holding member to form a series circuit. Two fixing seats are mounted in the lamp-holding member which are diametrically adjacent to the central openings. Each of the fixing seats has a contact member mounted therein and is electrically connected to the series circuit. An elongated insulating column has two opposed grooves formed along the length of the column. Each of the grooves has a conducting strip fixed in the bottom portion of the groove.

Abstract: A hollow ornament having a front wall and a back wall, the back wall and front wall being peripherally coextensive, joined at selected peripheral locations and providing peripheral apertures between the locations of joinder, at least the inner surfaces of the front and rear walls being light reflective, a light source within the ornament and means mounted the light source.

Abstract: A lighting unit provides a twindling effect by having a plurality of individual lamps within one unit and having electrical driving means to illuminate the lamps at different time intervals, preferably with a degree of randomness.

Abstract: An ornamental star display device adapted for use with strands of decorative electric lights having clip attachment means. The star is formed of a plurality of identical point members each of which is formed in the shape of an open-base triangle having sides terminating in outwardly extending leg portions. Brace members, one for each point member, form the base of each triangular point member when the display device is assembled. Fastening means securely hold a brace end and a leg portion in a parallel, superposed relationship with a side of each point member to form a rigid display device capable of easy assembly and disassembly.

Abstract: Illuminated cross having a frame consisting of pairs of vertical and horizontal plates intersecting at knotches therein so that the front and back surfaces thereof are in the same respective vertical planes and that the intersection forms a t-shaped cross; having the front and back surfaces of the resultant cross covered by sheets of translucent material; and having means for illuminating the same including electric bulbs located at the ends of the cross segments, semi-circular notches formed inthe frame plates intermediate the intersections thereof, and convex-shaped reflectors located on the outside of the frame plates adjacent the semi-circular notches.
