Abstract:
A light signalling device (60) adapted for use in diving including an autonomous electric supply module (62; 72; 82), in particular including batteries, housed in a water-tight container and a lighting module (64; 74; 84) in an electric supplying relationship with said electric supply module (62; 82). According to the invention said lighting module (64; 74; 84) includes a plurality of lighting elements (20), in particular LEDs, arranged on an elongated support structure (24), according to a light band or stripe arrangement (64; 74; 84), in particular suitable for identifying a specific direction.
Abstract:
A personal floatation device (160) that includes contacts (166, 168) that close a circuit when the personal floatation device is in water. The closed circuit provides a connection between batteries and a lamp (164), lighting the lamp. The personal floatation device (160) is buoyant so that it floats a wearer when the wearer is in the water.
Abstract:
An infrared signaling apparatus is disclosed, which utilizes high intensity solid state lighting elements, such as light emitting diodes (LEDs) to provide signaling for navigational as well as search/rescue applications employing night vision equipments.
Abstract:
Emitters for locating an item or person who has in some way become separated from their expected location are provided. The emitters of the present invention comprise a power source, a light emitting means, and a radiowave emitting means, the light emitting means comprising a first and second electrode, a dielectric material and an electroluminescent material being provided between the first and second electrodes, the radiowave emitting means comprising an antenna. The antenna may comprise the first and/or second electrode. The emitter may be a separate unit or may be part of or attached to an item such as a survival suit, a waterproof suit, a wet suit, a dry suit, a diving suit, a coat, a waterproof coat, a harness, a buoyancy item or aid, a life jacket, a life raft, a lifeboat, a floatation aid, a life belt, etc.
Abstract:
A remote controlled motorized buoy is provided for rescuing people in the water. The buoy may be controlled by a person with a remote control to navigate to the person in need. The buoy may have flotation mechanisms to keep the buoy right side up in rough water conditions and includes visual indicators to help the user keep track of the buoys location, such as a flag and beacon. When the buoy is near the swimmer, the swimmer may grab the buoy and the buoy may be remotely navigated to bring the swimmer to a safe location.

Abstract:
A portable lamp with an exchangeable light source body is revealed. A connection member (14) is disposed on an edge of a front end of a main body (1) while a plurality of light source bodies (2) for different conditions corresponding to the main body (1) is provided. The light source body (2) includes a connection base (21) with a connection member (211) corresponding to the connection member (14) of the main body (1). A light source (22) is disposed in the connection base (21) and is connected with a conductive part (23). A lamp shield (24) is covered on the connection base (21) while a reflector (25) corresponding to the light source (22) is also arranged thereon. The light source body (2) can be changed according to users' needs. Thus the practicality and convenience of the lamp are improved due to diversity in applications.
Abstract:
A cowling for an outboard marine engine includes an upper motor cover, a lower motor cover and a gear case that covers an engine that propels a watercraft. The upper motor cover mates with the lower motor cover and is configured to assist with alignment during assembly. The lower motor cover is configured to be assembled to one of a plurality of upper motor covers depending on engine size, and each upper motor cover is configured to be assembled to one of a plurality of top caps depending on whether the engine uses an electric starter or a pull starter. An illuminator, in the form of a lamp, a removable light or a reflector, is provided on the cowling.
