Abstract

The invention relates to a multifaceted discontinuous reflector. A vehicle anti-collision light is disclosed. In one or more embodiments, the vehicle anti-collision light includes one or more illumination sources disposed on a substrate, and a reflector assembly coupled to the substrate at a base. In embodiments, the reflector assembly includes a reflective element including one or more reflectivesurfaces configured to redirect a first portion of illumination, and one or more transmissive portions configured to transmit a second portion of illumination through the reflective element. In embodiments, the one or more transmissive portions are bounded within the one or more reflective surfaces of the reflective element such that the reflective element includes one or more reflective surfacesbetween the base and the one or more transmissive portions, and one or more reflective surfaces between the one or more transmissive portions and a distal edge of the reflective element.

Description

Background technique [0001] Vehicles often use high-intensity anti-collision lights to alert nearby observers of the presence of the vehicle in order to reduce the likelihood of a collision. In the context of aviation, there are special regulations to define light intensity requirements. For example, according to Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) regulations written 14C.F.R.25.1401, aircraft anti-collision lights must direct light 360° around the horizontal plane and up to 75° above the horizontal plane. Additionally, the regulations require higher light intensities at lower vertical angles relative to the horizontal and lower light intensities at higher vertical angles. [0002] Currently available anti-collision lights exhibit several disadvantages. For example, currently available anti-collision lights typically emit large amounts of light at high angles relative to the horizontal. These large amounts of light are often well above the light intensity requirements pro...
