Abstract:
1. A vehicle light, comprising a shell, the shell having a circuit board disposed thereon; a transparent cover connected to the shell; a locating member secured in the shell, the locating member having a plurality of step portions, each of the step portions being on a different plane; and a plurality of light source units respectively mounted to the step portions of the locating member to be on different planes, each light source unit including: (1) a reflection shell part having a cavity therein; (2) a light emitting diode disposed in the cavity and having a pair of leads extending therefrom, the light emitting diode being secured to an inward end of the reflection shell part with the pair of leads extending through the reflection shell part and coupled to the circuit board; (3) an annular guiding part connected with an outward end of the reflection shell part and extending the cavity thereof; and (4) a transparent convex covering part joined to an outward end of the guiding part to enclose the cavity and the light emitting guide therein, the transparent convex covering part having a plurality of refraction elements formed on an inward side thereof facing the light emitting diode, each of the refraction elements being linearly directed, wherein light from the light emitting diode travels through the transparent convex covering part, the refraction elements making the light change direction; whereby when the light source units are positioned such that the refraction elements of the transparent convex covering parts are in various orientations, light can be diverted into different directions by means of the refraction elements; and whereby when being activated, the vehicle light will produce light whose form depends on orientations of the refraction elements of the light source units.
