A LED lighting lamp tube comprises a transparent tube body, lamp caps, electrode pins, pedestals mounted at the connection position of the transparent tube body and the lamp caps, a power supply converter located adjacent to the lamp caps and inside the tube body, a PCB and a plurality of LED mounted on the PCB. These LED are connected in parallel or in series, and a light-scattering plate may be disposed over these LED. A plurality of LED chips can be directly mounted on the light-scattering plate. The lamp caps and the electrode pins possess the same international standards as common lamp tubes.

Provided are surface light source devices and LCDs having isotropic and wide viewing angles. A surface light source device for illuminating an LCD comprises a light guide plate hiving a back face provided with a great number of micro-reflectors. Light beams P1, P2 representing an inner input light are inner-reflected by first and then second inner reflection faces or in inverse order, respectively to become a first and second inner output lights Q1 and Q2 which are non-parallel to each other, providing an emission having angular intensity characteristics showing two peaks. Peak splitting of the emission is dissolved by a light diffusion sheet disposed along an emission face of the light guide plate, causing an LCD panel to be illuminated by an isotropic and wide-view-angled illumination output light. The first and second inner reflection faces may be inclined oppositely and symmetrically to each other with respect to an imaginary reference plane that passes a valley bottom of a micro-reflector and extends perpendicularly to the emission face.

A light bulb includes a bulb body, a light guide, and at least one light-emitting diode (LED). The bulb body includes a light-transmitting shell and a conductive base. The light-transmitting shell is mounted to the base. A circuit board is fixed at one side of the base and is in electrical connection with the base. The LED is mounted to the circuit board that is arranged at one side of the base, and the LED is in electrical connection with the circuit board to provide an internal light source. The light guide is arranged inside the bulb body and has an end forming a cavity that receives the LED therein, whereby the light guide is set erect on the base. As such, advantages of easy manufacturing, reduced costs, operation safety, increased angular range of illumination, and extended lifespan can be provided.

Embodiments of the invention are concerned with a radar system, and relates specifically to scanning radar systems that are suitable for detecting and monitoring ground-based targets.In one aspect, the radar system is embodied as a scanning radar system comprising a frequency generator, a frequency scanning antenna, and a receiver arranged to process signals received from a target so as to identify a Doppler frequency associated with the target, wherein the frequency generator is arranged to generate a plurality of sets of signals, each set having a different characteristic frequency, the frequency generator comprising a digital synthesiser arranged to modulate a continuous wave signal of a given characteristic frequency by a sequence of modulation of patterns whereby to generate a said set of signals, and wherein the frequency scanning antenna is arranged to cooperate with the frequency generator so as to transceive radiation over a region having an angular extent dependent on the said generated frequencies.Embodiments of the invention thus combine digital synthesiser techniques, which are capable of precise frequency generation and control, with passive frequency scanning and Doppler processing techniques. This enables accurate control of range and of scan rates, and enables optimisation of range cell size for factors such as slow and fast target detection and Signal to Noise ratio, and thus enables detection of targets located at distances considerably farther away than is possible with known systems having similar power requirements.

A structure of overhead lamp and mounting bracket for constructional vehicle has developed to tilt the illuminating angle by controlling the position of slits at the lateral sides of bracket. The lamp is securely fixing at the controlled position at one of 4 positions and the position controlling slits. The main case is securely fixed to the bracket by installing a connection screw and a hinge bolt for restricting unwanted rotation of the hinge bolt. Accordingly, since a position controlling rib having a position controlling slit is extended rearward from side supporters, the illumination angle can be controlled within a greater range. The main case can be supported at 4 points through the plurality of position controlling slits. Furthermore, by fitting the connection screw with an outer circumferential recess of a hinge bolt fastening lever, rotational separation of the hinge bolt and change of the illumination angle of the main case can be prevented.

A projection screen 111 comprises a total reflection prism lens 114 and a lenticular lens 115 provided on the viewer's side of the total reflection prism lens 114. The total reflection prism lens 114 has a plurality of unit prisms 113 on its back surface (the outermost plane of incidence) on which imaging light L is incident. Each unit prism 113 has an apical angle λ that corresponds to the angle between the plane of incidence 113a and the plane of total reflection 113b, and the apical angles λ of the unit prisms 113 vary with the position of each unit prism 113 on the screen plane. In particular, the unit prisms 113 have apical angles λ varying continuously from 30° to 45° so that the apical angles λ on the side distant from the center O of the concentric circles are greater than the apical angles λ on the side close to this center O.
