초록 ▼

A light bar is described that is of a modular construction based on one or more large circuit boards that are populated with light beam assemblies and then fastened to an interior space of the light bar housing. Keys that automatically align the light beam assemblies on each of the boards precisely control placement of the assemblies on the board. In turn, each of the boards is keyed to the interior of the light bar housing so that when the board is fastened to the housing the light beam assemblies are automatically registered into alignment with the lenses in the housing so that the beams from the assemblies are properly oriented. The light bar is inexpensive to fabricate and can be assembled quickly and reliably, yet it provides for a high degree of customization, which is a requirement in the emergency vehicle lighting industry.

대표청구항 ▼

1. A self-powered light bar for mounting to a vehicle, the light bar comprising: a housing including: two or more lenses in the housing, and a second pattern of keys formed as part of an interior of the housing;two or more emergency lighting assemblies mounted on one or more circuit boards disposed within the housing, wherein the one or more circuit boards include a first pattern of keys that mates to the second pattern of keys that is formed as part of the interior of the housing itself, such that each of the two or more emergency lighting assemblies corresponds to an individual lens of the two or more lenses in the housing;solar cells mated with the housing for providing power to the two or more emergency lighting assemblies;a storage device also mated with the housing and in communication with the solar cells for storing energy generated by the solar cells when the energy is not being used by the two or more emergency lighting assemblies;a controller mounted within the housing for controlling the two or more emergency lighting assemblies and for coordinating the flow of energy to the two or more emergency lighting assemblies from the solar cells and the storage device; anda receiver mounted within the housing for wirelessly communicating with a control head in a passenger compartment of the vehicle. 2. The self-powered light bar of claim 1 including a fuel cell within the housing. 3. The self-powered light bar of claim 1 wherein the storage device is a rechargeable battery. 4. The self-powered light bar of claim 1 wherein the storage device is a capacitive device. 5. The self-powered light bar of claim 1 including a connection in the housing and between the receiver and the controller for communicating to the controller commands entered by a user at the control head, which commands enable the controller to operate the two or more emergency lighting assemblies in keeping with the commands. 6. The self-powered light bar of claim 2 wherein the receiver is part of a transceiver that provides for bi-directional communication between the controller and the control head. 7. The self-powered light bar of claim 1 wherein the two or more emergency lighting assemblies includes one or more groups of light emitting diodes (LEDs), with each group associated with a beam shaping device that shapes light from the group of LEDs into an emergency light signal. 8. The self-powered light bar of claim 7 wherein at least two of the groups of LEDs are mounted on a common circuit board. 9. A method for retrofitting a vehicle to include an emergency signaling system, the method including: mounting an emergency signaling system contained in a housing to the vehicle without any external wiring connecting the housing and the vehicle, wherein emergency signaling system includes two or more emergency lighting assemblies mounted on one or more circuit boards disposed within the housing that include a first pattern of keys that mates to a second pattern of keys that is formed as part of an interior of the housing itself, such that each of two or more emergency lighting assemblies corresponds to an individual lens of two or more lenses in the housing;applying energy to the two or more emergency lighting assemblies from a source of energy that is mated with the common housing;providing command signals to a controller in the common housing by way of a wireless connection between the controller and a user interface remote from the common housing; andoperating the two or more emergency lighting assemblies in response to commands from the controller that are in keeping with the command signals received by way of the wireless connection such that the two or more emergency lighting assemblies contained by the common housing are operated and controlled without any wiring connecting the two or more emergency lighting assemblies to sources of energy or control that are external to the common housing. 10. The method of claim 9 wherein the mounting of the emergency signaling system to the vehicle includes mounting the emergency signaling system to a roof of the vehicle. 11. The method of claim 9 including converting solar energy to electrical energy at the source of energy and storing the electrical energy within the common housing when the electrical energy is not applied to operating the two or more emergency lighting assemblies. 12. The method of claim 11 including providing the stored electrical energy to the two or more emergency lighting assemblies when the electrical energy immediately available from the source of energy is insufficient to drive the two or more emergency lighting assemblies. 13. The method of claim 12 wherein the stored electrical energy supplements the electrical energy immediately available from the source of energy in order to provide a total amount of electrical energy that is sufficient to operate the two or more emergency lighting assemblies. 14. The method of claim 9 wherein an operator of the vehicle enters commands to the user interface, which is mounted within a passenger compartment of the vehicle.
