Blinking signal lights

Abstract

An electrical load set circuit and apparatus having at least three control signal lines arranged in parallel, a pair of polarized electrical loads connected between two of the signal lines, and another electrical load connected between a different control signal line and one of the polarized loads. Individual ones of the electrical loads can be selectively activated without requiring an additional common (ground) line. At least two of the control signal lines can be kept in a floating state. A light strip includes plural light set circuits spaced along the control signal lines. In another variation, first and second light points are spaced along the three control signal lines, each including three different color LEDs respectively. Further variations include display devices having rotating and slit patterns of illumination.

Abstract

A display apparatus for lighted footwear, having a spring switch, a battery-powered integrated circuit sealingly encapsulated, a plurality of illuminators, and a wiring harness connecting the illuminators to points of the integrated circuit, the integrated circuit being configured for activating the illuminators in a sequential pattern that can include repeated activation cycles when the spring switch is subjected to an effective acceleration. The display apparatus preferably includes the battery being sealingly encapsulated together with the spring switch and the integrated circuit; an ON/OFF switch can be included for selectively producing a deep sleep state of the integrated circuit that is unresponsive to the spring switch. Also disclosed is footwear incorporating the display apparatus, wherein the encapsulated enclosure is located within a sole heel portion of the shoe, and the illuminators are distributed on the footwear for external view. A switch circuit structured and arranged for use in a lighted footwear display apparatus, the switch circuit comprising: an IC chip, a manual switch, and a pull-up resistor; wherein the IC chip has an IO port, a power source positive electrode and a ground terminal, one end of the pull-up resistor is connected to the power source positive electrode of the IC chip, another end of the pull-up resistor is connected to the IO port of the IC chip and one end of the manual switch, and another end of the manual switch is connected to the ground end terminal of the IC chip. The switch circuit can work normally when the manual switch is located in the water.

Abstract

A circuit for LED strip lights, comprising: a controller, N control wires and a light-emitting circuit, one end of each control wire of the N control wires being connected to the controller, the other end thereof being connected to the light-emitting circuit, and N being a natural number greater than or equal to 4. The light-emitting circuit comprises M groups of light-emitting diodes arranged in sequence, C(N‐1,2)‐M≤C(N,2), C here representing the combination formula. Each group of light-emitting diodes comprises two light-emitting diodes which are connected in anti-parallel and are arranged in sequence, two ends of each group of light-emitting diodes are respectively connected to the other ends of two different control wires of the N control wires, and at most one group of light-emitting diodes is connected between the other ends of any two control wires of the N control wires. The circuit for LED strip lights can provide the light emission effect of flowing water flashing, enriching the light emission mode of the LED strip lights, and simplifying the line structure of the LED strip lights.

Abstract

A light set circuit having first, second, and third control signal lines arranged in parallel, with pairs of LEDs connected with reverse polarity between pairs of the signal lines. In operation, control apparatus applies a control signal level between one and either of the other signal lines, the remaining control signal line being kept in a floating state for activating a selected one of the four LEDs. A light strip includes plural light set circuits spaced along the control signal lines. In another variation, first and second light points are spaced along the three control signal lines, each including three different color LEDs respectively, there being three pairs of LEDs connected with reverse polarity between pairs of the signal lines for activating a selected one of the six LEDs by applying a control signal level between two of the signal lines, keeping the remaining signal line in a floating state.
