Patent ID: 8425096

Claim:
A mirror type signal light comprising: a light source ( 1 ) for emitting a light; a primary optical component ( 2 ) for directing the light in a first desired direction; a secondary optical component ( 3 ) for directing the light in a second desired direction, wherein the light emitted by the light source ( 1 ) is focused by the primary optical component ( 2 ) on the secondary optical component ( 3 ); a tertiary optical component ( 4 ) for directing the light in a third desired direction, wherein the tertiary optical component ( 4 ) includes at least one mirror type smooth surface and receives the light from the secondary optical component ( 3 ); a cover glass ( 6 ) through which the light is transmitted from the tertiary optical component ( 4 ); at least one internal glass ( 5 ) disposed between the tertiary optical component ( 4 ) and the cover glass ( 6 ); an optical filter ( 7 ) disposed between the secondary optical component ( 3 ) and the tertiary optical component ( 4 ); and a plurality of scattering elements formed on at least one of the primary optical component ( 2 ) and the secondary optical component ( 3 ) to scatter the light directed thereby, wherein the light after passing through the optical filter ( 7 ) is projected onto the tertiary optical component ( 4 ), and the light from the scattering elements is further distributed by the tertiary optical component ( 4 ) and passes through the at least one internal glass ( 5 ) and the cover glass ( 6 ).
