  • Patent number: 8253550
    Abstract: An exemplary road traffic mirror includes a casing, a mirror, a monitor, a processor, and an indicating module. The mirror and the hollow casing define a chamber therein, and the mirror includes a transparent glass and a reflection film formed on the transparent glass, wherein the reflection film is a narrow band pass film. The monitor is configured to automatically monitor road conditions and generate corresponding road condition signals. The processor is configured to analyze the road condition signals, and to generate switching signals. The indicating module is received in the chamber and facing the mirror, wherein the indicating module is configured to be activated by the switching signal and emit corresponding light rays, the light rays of the indicating module passing through the reflection film and forming an indication sign on the outside of the road traffic mirror.

  • Patent number: 4406077
    Abstract: A mechanically operated, gravity-assisted display device has the capability of being remotely controlled by an unskilled operator to display current numeric pricing indicia for a product or other alpha-numeric indicia for any required purpose. The device is ideally suited for displaying the unit price of gasoline on an elevated sign at a filling station. Multiple gravity-biased sliding panels which are arrayed to form variable indicia are operated remotely by flexible suspension elements equipped individually with fixed enlargements. Interchangeable coded remote operating cards for groups of the flexible suspension elements have passages through which predetermined enlargements may pass while other enlargements are blocked. Movement of the block enlargements with the flexible suspension elements to which they are attached under influence of the coded cards establishes the required change of displayed indicia.
