Abstract

A light bar contains one or more rows of light-emitting diodes (LED's) in a housing which extends across substantially the entire width of a windshield of a vehicle and is narrow in width to minimize interference with visibility through the windshield.
The housing directs the illumination out of the windshield and minimizes stray light. The LED's are arranged in banks, two of which are tilted in opposite directions to each other so as to project light toward the right side and left side of the vehicle. The LED's may be illuminated continuously or in selected sequence, as established by the user with a switch on the housing.

12. The light bar according to Claim 11 wherein said center leg has overlapping sections which are adjustably, vertically positionable with respect to each other.
13. The light bar according to Claim 1 wherein said housing has upper and lower walls closed at opposite ends, said walls defining said channel and said throat thereof and a back between said walls and ends.
14. The light bar according to Claim 13 wherein a housing containing a light source attached to a lower one of said walls for projecting light for selective illumination inside said vehicle.
15. The light bar according to Claim 13 wherein said walls and ends are plates of flexible material.
16. The light bar according to Claim 15 wherein said material is plastic.
17. The light bar according to Claim 15 wherein said LED's are mounted on boards which space said top and bottom walls from each other and define the height of said channel.
18. The light bar according to Claim 1 wherein said throat and front of said housing is arcuately curved.
19. The light bar according to Claim 18 wherein said window is a windshield curved along the width thereof and the curvature of said front of said housing and said throat corresponds to the curvature of said windshield.
20. The light bar according to Claim 13 wherein said walls have edges defining where said throat opens, said LED's being disposed inwardly of said edges.
21. The light bar according to Claim 1 wherein said LED's are in rows selected from the group consisting of a single row, two parallel rows and three parallel rows.
22. The light bar according to Claim 1 wherein said LED's are provided in banks constituting said row or a plurality of rows of LED's.
23. The light bar according to Claim 22 wherein certain of said banks are inclined at different angles with respect to each other to project said illumination in different directions through said window.
24. The light bar according to Claim 22 wherein the color of illumination from certain of said banks is different from the color of illumination from other of said banks.
25. The light bar according to Claim 22 wherein first and second pluralities of said banks are disposed about a region centrally of said housing.
