Abstract:
1. An apparatus comprising: a dichroic color mixing flag for a multiparameter stage light; a mechanical component; and a motor; wherein the dichroic color mixing flag has a shape; wherein the shape of the dichroic color mixing flag is substantially circular having a perimeter; wherein the dichroic color mixing flag has a periphery; wherein the dichroic color mixing flag has a graduated area that produces a gradual color mixing when the dichroic color mixing flag is translated into a light path of the multiparameter light; and wherein the mechanical component is fixed to the periphery of the dichroic color mixing flag in a manner so that the dichroic color mixing flag cannot rotate with respect to the mechanical component; wherein the mechanical component has a first end which is fixed to and in direct contact with the dichroic color mixing flag at a first point inside the perimeter of the substantially circular shape of the dichroic color mixing flag; wherein the mechanical component has a second end opposite the first end; and wherein the mechanical component is fixed to the dichroic color mixing flag so that the mechanical component extends from its first end at the first point inside the perimeter of the substantially circular shape of the dichroic color mixing flag to its second end at a second point outside the perimeter of the substantially circular shape of the dichroic color mixing flag, wherein the second end of the mechanical component is not overlapped by the substantially circular shape of the dichroic color mixing flag; and wherein the second end of the mechanical component is fixed to the motor which is configured to a translate the dichroic color mixing flag into the light path of the multiparameter stage light; and wherein the dichroic color mixing flag is fixed to the first end of the mechanical component and the second end of the mechanical component is fixed to the motor so that the dichroic color mixing flag cannot rotate unless translated with respect to the motor.
