Indicating light of a car

Abstract

An indicating light of a car has an indicating device, which is securely fitted on a rear side of a car, and which consists of several different indicating light sections; the different indicating light sections have different colored light sources thereon therefore each of the indicating light sections will emit a respective colored light to indicate a particular situation, e.g. braking, reversing, turning, and emergency; in other words, the indicating light can serve several purposes instead of single one.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The present invention will be better understood by referring to the accompanying drawings, wherein:

FIG. 1 is a front view of the present invention,

FIG. 2 is a circuit diagram in the present invention,

FIG. 3 is a view of the present invention, taken when it is fitted on a rear window of a car, and

FIG. 4 is a view of the present invention, taken when it is fitted on a trunk cover of a car.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 2, a preferred embodiment of an indicating light of a car comprises an indicating device 1, which can be a lamp base or a film-type lamp, and which consists of a brake indicating light section 11, two back-up indicating light sections 12, two warning light sections 13, two direction indicating light sections 14, and a control circuit 15 used for controlling the brake indicating light section 11, the back-up indicating light sections 12, the warning light sections 13, and the direction indicating light sections 14. The brake indicating light section 11, the back-up indicating light sections 12, the warning light sections 13, and the direction indicating light sections 14 each have several light sources 16, which can be light emitting diodes (LED). The control circuit 15 can be connected to and powered with a storage battery of a motor vehicle. Or alternatively, the control circuit 15 can be connected to and powered with another battery.

The light sources 16 of the brake indicating light section 11 can emit red light. The light sources 16 of the back-up indicating light sections 12 can emit white light. The light sources 16 of the warning light sections 13 can emit blue light and red light. And, the light sources 16 of the direction indicating light sections 14 can emit yellow light.

The indicating light base 1 is fitted on a rear window of a car, as shown in FIG. 3, or an upper end of a trunk cover of a car, as shown in FIG. 4. Therefore, when the driver presses the brake pedal, the light sources 16 of the brake indicating light section 11 will start emitting red light to alert drivers behind. When the driver turn on a blinker of the car before turning, the light sources 16 of the corresponding blinker section 14 will start emitting yellow light to alert drivers behind. When the driver shifts to reverse gear before reversing, the light sources 16 of the back-up indicating light sections 13 will start emitting white light to alert people and drivers behind. If emergency happens such as breakdown of the car when the car is being driven, the driver is allowed to turn on the warning light sections 13 for the warning light sections 13 to emit red light and blue light in an alternating manner to make other people and drivers notice.

From the above description, it can be seen that the indicating light of the present invention has an advantage over the conventional one; it consists of several different sections each capable of emitting a respective colored light to indicate a particular situation. Consequently, the present invention can serve several different purposes, and help increase safety of driving.
