    摘要: A multifunction lighthead for mounting to a vehicle includes several groups of LEDs arranged to provide distinct light emission patterns. Each group of LEDs and associated optics are selected and positioned to produce light emission patterns needed to meet lighting standards applicable to the vehicle. Such standards may require wide angle light emission, which is enhanced by supporting groups of LEDs that project away from the vehicle body, enhancing visibility of the lighthead from directions close to a plane defined by the body panel. The projecting support for the LEDs and optics for a wide angle light emission pattern may be employed to support LEDs arranged for ground illumination. Other groups of LEDs in the same lighthead may be arranged with optics to provide area illumination in support of arrest, search, triage or other emergency functions.

    摘要: A warning light includes a lens or cover is tinted with a grey or “smoke” tint that is not spectrally selective or alternatively referred to as “neutral density” in that it reduces transmission of all colors of light equally. The objective of the neutral tinted “smoked” lens is to reduce the conspicuity of warning lights when not in use. Ambient light penetration into the warning light is reduced by the proportion of tint and then light reflecting off the optical surfaces within the warning light are reduced again when passing through the tinted lens on the way out of the assembly. The resulting warning light appears dull and is less conspicuous than the same warning light or lightbar with a clear lens. The tinted lens or cover may include optical elements configured to re-direct light, and the entire lens or cover is molded from the same tinted plastic material.
