Title: Innovations by Richard C. Bryant
Introduction
Richard C. Bryant is an accomplished inventor based in Acacto, California. He holds 2 patents that showcase his expertise in electrical circuitry and trailer lighting systems. His innovative designs have contributed significantly to the field of automotive accessories.
Latest Patents
One of his latest patents is the "Tail light adapter between a towing vehicle and trailer." This invention features an electrical taillight adapter circuit that interfaces a three-lamp vehicle lighting circuitry with a two-lamp trailer lighting circuitry. The vehicle lighting circuitry primarily includes a group of three right-hand lamps and a group of three left-hand lamps. These lamps operate in response to signals generated by the vehicle operator and are electrically connected to the adapter circuit. The trailer circuit generally includes a group of two right-hand lamps and a group of two left-hand lamps. The adapter circuitry receives electrical signals from the vehicle circuit, processes them, and outputs power to the appropriate trailer lamp. This electrical taillight adapter circuit interfaces the nonconforming taillight circuit of a vehicle with that of a trailer while providing the trailer lamps with improved output current and protecting the system from short circuit conditions.
Another notable patent is the "Dual operational and brake light control for trailers." This invention adapts combined stop and turn signal lights on a trailer to independent stop signal and turn signal lights on a towing vehicle. The adaptor has a pair of switching circuits, each including a PNP transistor connected in series with an NPN transistor to chassis ground. Each transistor is connected to both stop and turn signal circuits of the towing vehicle and also to an NPN output transistor, which is connected to an independent voltage source to drive the trailer signal lights independent of the voltage at the towing vehicle signal lights.
