Light bar for an emergency vehicle

A light bar for mounting on an emergency vehicle has a modular construction using trays for mounting lights. The trays are integral members having cells formed therein for receiving components of light fixtures. The light bar has two lighting tiers. The lights on the lower tier are received in the cells of the trays. The tops of the trays provide a platform for mounting lights on the upper tier. Alternatively, the upper-tier lights may be mounted on the upper shell of the housing of the light bar. Snap-fit fasteners are formed on the trays for mounting components of the lights. In one configuration, the light bar includes a speaker which has a driver mounted inside the light bar housing and a horn which fits in an opening in the housing and is coupled to the driver for transmitting audio signals.

Light bar

An improved socket assembly for a warning light includes a frustro-conical base and a lamp extending from the top of the base. The base contains electrical components for operation of the lamp and provides electrical connection from the bottom of the base. At least one annular recess is formed in the side of the base at a selected distance from the lamp. Inasmuch as the base is fabricated of a compressible material, it may be radially inwardly compressed to mate the recess with an opening formed within a lamp housing.

Warning light socket assembly and method for installing same

A mirror assembly for use with a warning light which has a reflector that is capable of rotating a beam of light emanating from a lamp located at its focal point. The mirror assembly comprises a first set of first, second and third mirrors mounted to the attachment for reflecting the intercepted light in a predetermined direction, where the reflections occur first from the first mirror, then from the second mirror and finally from the third mirror; and a port between the first and third mirrors for passing light to the second mirror such that the reflected beam from the second mirror is further from the focal point than the reflected beams from the first and third mirrors. A warning light is also provided which may be used either alone or in combination with the aforesaid mirror assembly. One embodiment of this light comprises a reflector and lamp mounted in a base wherein the reflector rotates about a focal point of the reflector; a manually operable mechanism mounted to the base section and having variable positions; and means responsive to the mechanism for rotating the reflector at different speeds when the mechanism is in different positions. The design of the aforesaid light also includes a provision for either directly manufacturing a warning light, or modifying an existing warning light, such that the beam of light is capable of rotating 360.degree. oscillating about the warning light. A printed circuit board may also be included in the warning light.
