Owner:UNDERWATER LIGHTS USA

Thru-hull light

A thru-hull fitting assembly is connected to the forward end of a hollow lamp housing for mounting to a hole in the hull of a vessel in a water-tight fashion. An HID or other lamp is mounted in the lamp housing and is surrounded by a reflector which may have an outer elliptical section and an inner parabolic section. A protective transparent window extends across the forward end of the lamp housing and is sealed thereto. The window may be made of sapphire to provide improved heat dissipation and to resist scratching during hull cleaning and breakage due to thermal shock and wave slap. A circuit may be connected to the lamp to provide over-heat protection, leak detection, as well as fault and power status indicators. Alternate embodiments utilize a solid light pipe or a hollow reflective tube to convey light from the lamp to the protective window.

Method and apparatus for creating a high efficiency surface mount illumination device for projecting electromagnetic radiation at a high angle from the surface normal

A marine lamp includes an LED and a heat sink that removes heat from the LED. A lens assembly is associated with the LED and collects the energy from the LED and compresses the light into a high intensity beam. The beam strikes a secondary reflective surface which spreads the light into a desired output distribution. In one particular application, the desired output distribution has a ring-like distribution with a primary light beam at approximately 60 degrees from mounting surface normal.

Hybrid watercraft

A watercraft steered under power by water-jet propulsion utilizes a water intake ramp in its hull to create a nozzle-like effect to accelerate water loading to the jet pump through a ventral water inlet when under power. The hull has a pair of longitudinal stabilizers that form a tunnel in which the ramp is located. A canopy, which can be removable, encloses a passenger compartment with a steering wheel and one or more passenger seats. Two wings flank the passenger compartment and a pair of hull ramps run steeply downward from the leading edge of each of the wings and extends to the bottom of the hull while a pair of air scoops flanks each side of the passenger compartment and is located above the pair of wings. The forward-most beginnings of the pair of stabilizers relative to a nose section and the pair of wings ride above the surface of the water when the watercraft is under power and the watercraft rides on the back of the pair of stabilizers. The tops of wings are curved in a configuration to give the watercraft top lift and have a reverse curve on their bottom surface relative to the surface of the water to push the hull upward and provide a faster plane for the watercraft to run on the pair of stabilizers. The engine and the driver's passenger seat rest on the center of gravity of the watercraft at the water line when the watercraft is under power.

Marine light mounting system and method for producing same

A marine light mounting system for attaching at least one light to a marine vehicle includes a support structure for supporting one or more lights on the marine vehicle. The support structure includes a light mounting portion configured to receive a housing of one of the lights, and to facilitate attachment of the housing to the support structure. The light mounting portion includes a surface that may be generally arcuate, and which is configured to cooperate with the housing such that the surface does not completely surround a housing of the light. This facilitates attachment of the housing to the support structure while the light is electrically wired to a power source remote from the housing. This provides flexibility with regard to mounting the light in the first instance, and changing the orientation of the bracket in the second.

Radar controlled automatic target illumination system

A radar controlled automatic target illumination system for marine and other moving vessels. A radar system operably connected to the vessel produces an electronic signal corresponding to an azimuth of a target relative to, and in proximity to the vessel. An array of lights are connected to the vessel, each light being aimed outwardly in a different lighting sector, the sectors being adjacent one to another around the vessel, each of said lights, when automatically activated, illuminating one lighting sector. An electronic processor is operably connected between the radar system and the array of lights for the automatic selective activation of one or more of the lights to illuminate the target within a corresponding lighting sector which the radar system has identified.

Stable elevated lamp for a fishing boat

A stable elevated lamp for a fishing boat provides both elevated and stability in rough water. A rigid pole is mounted to the deck at a strategic location where light is needed, such as near a fishing seat or near the helm console. The pole is provided in telescoping sections, such that it may be easily raised and locked into position, then lowered as desired. The top of the pole features a lantern support mounted within a two-dimensional gimbal in a plane parallel to the water surface. The lantern support is ballasted at the bottom, so as to remain stable as the boat rocks, and accommodates any type of lantern, including battery-powered electric lanterns as well as liquid fuel burning lanterns.
