The invention concerns a light having a reflector, at least one neon lamp, and a cover plate, wherein the light is provided with a shield for shielding the direct light of the neon lamp travelling towards the cover plate.

Light for a vehicle

Lighting device in particular signalling lamp for a vehicle

Signal lamp

A signal lamp for an automotive vehicle is disclosed including a housing having at least two individual signal compartments each including a light source and a common glass cover having a predetermined color. A colorless carrier disc having black opaque stripes on one side of the carrier disc and lens elements on an opposite side spans both compartments. A red color filter spans one compartment between the carrier disc and the one compartment lamp and an unsaturated light filter of a color different from the color of the glass cover spans the other compartment between the carrier disc and the other lamp. In the off condition of both lamps, the signal lamp color is determined by the color of the glass cover. The red filter produces a red signal when the one lamp is on. The combination of the unsaturated filter and the color of the glass cover produce a signal color at the second compartment when its lamp is on which is different from that of the unsaturated filter color or glass cover color and representative of a desired vehicle condition including vehicle reverse illumination, warning signal and turn signal.

Signal lamp, especially for motor vehicles

A vehicle light including several incandescent lamps which are inserted in sockets of plastic lamp holder by means of the lamp base or cap which forms the connection for the incandescent lamp. A lug is punched from a thin sheet metal billet in one piece with a lead for the respective incandescent lamp and is bent towards the bottom of the socket and squeezed between the base or cap and the socket by a spring.

Vehicle light assembly including several incandescent lamps

A fastening device which permits snap-in assembly of a switch to a panel or receiving member includes a resilient latching member connected to the switch housing and adapted to engage a shoulder of the receiving member. A second resilient member serves to urge the resilient latching member into contact with the shoulder. In one embodiment of the invention, the switch housing is inserted into a receiving portion of a control panel and a connector carries at least one resilient latching member adapted to engage a shoulder on the receiving portion. In this embodiment, the connector and panel cooperate to retain the switch.
