Abstract:
A modular light bar, for mounting on an emergency vehicle, is configured for changing of a portion of its external shape for changing a corresponding light directional capability thereof using interchangeable lighting modules. The lights thereon cast light in multiple lighting directions without using any rotating elements. The modular light bar includes: a base member with a first light bar end section and a second light bar end section interconnected by a support portion configured to provide a gap between the first and second light bar end sections. Various different center section lighting modules may be interchangeably received in the gap between the first light bar end section and the second light bar end section, and be latched thereto.

Claim (Index 13):
A method of transmitting light from an emergency vehicle, the method comprising:\n forming a base member having a first light bar end section, a second light bar end section, and interconnecting the first and second light bar end sections with a support portion configured for spacing the first and second light bar end sections apart; forming a center section lighting module, and interchangeably receiving the center section lighting module onto the base member between the spaced apart first and second light bar end sections; emitting light in a first lighting direction, a second lighting direction, a third lighting direction, a fourth lighting direction, and a fifth lighting direction from the first light bar end section; emitting light in the first lighting direction, the second lighting direction, a sixth lighting direction, a seventh lighting direction, and an eighth lighting direction from the second light bar end section; and emitting light in the first lighting direction and the second lighting direction by the center section lighting module.
