Abstract
A reference light for maneuvering a vehicle for providing a point of reference for the rear portion of a vehicle when maneuvering the vehicle. The reference light for maneuvering a vehicle includes a plate having a first surface and a second surface. The plate has a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge and a second side edge. A plurality of fasteners is extended through the first and second surfaces for removably attaching the plate to a vehicle such that the first side edge extends toward a front side of the vehicle. A light emitting device is securely attached to the first surface.
Claims9
An illuminated reference point device for positioning on a vertical side wall of an elongated vehicle, said device being disposed above a back tire of said elongated vehicle, said device comprises:
- a plate having a first surface and a second surface, said plate having a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge and a second side edge, a plurality of fasteners being extended through said first and second surfaces for removably attaching said plate to said vehicle such that said first side edge extends toward a front side of said vehicle;
- a light emitting device being securely attached to said first surface;
- and
- a panel being attached to said second side edge of said plate, said panel having a first side facing said light and a second side positioned opposite of said light, a light reflecting material being attached to said first side of said panel, said light being directed toward said panel.
An illuminated reference point device for positioning on a vertical side wall of an elongated vehicle, said device being disposed above a back tire of said elongated vehicle, said device comprises:
- a plate having a first surface and a second surface, said plate having a top edge, a bottom edge, a first side edge and a second side edge, a plurality of fasteners being extended through said first and second surfaces for removably attaching said plate to said vehicle such that said first side edge extends toward a front side of said vehicle;
- a light emitting device being securely attached to said first surface and directed toward said second side edge of said plate, said light emitting device being operationally coupled to an electrical power supply of said vehicle, said light emitting device including a plurality of light bulbs positioned in a generally transparent casing, said casing being attached to a bracket, said bracket being securely attached to said first surface;
- a panel being attached to said second side edge of said plate, said panel having a bend therein extending along said panel and orientated generally parallel to said second side edge of plate such that said panel has a first portion and a second portion, wherein said first portion is adjacent to said plate, said first portion extending generally toward said light emitting device, said second portion extending away from said plate and being positioned in a plane orientated generally perpendicular to a plane of said first surface of said plate, said panel having a first side facing said light and a second side positioned opposite of said light, a light reflective covering being attached to and generally covering said second portion of said first and second sides;
- and
- a guard member being attached to said first side edge and being angled toward said light emitting device, wherein said panel extends further away from said first surface than said guard member, said guard member having an outer surface facing away from said light emitting device, a light reflective covering being attached to and generally covering said outer surface of said guard member.
