Safety light
The present disclosure provides a safety light. The safety light includes a top housing; a printed circuit board assembly coupled to the top housing, the printed circuit board assembly having a top surface and a bottom surface; a plurality of light elements coupled to the bottom surface of the printed circuit board assembly, the printed circuit board assembly programmed to energize the plurality of light elements following depression of a first control button; a lens coupled to the bottom surface of the printed circuit board assembly and the plurality of light elements, the lens having a first angled reflective surface and a plurality of side surfaces; and a bottom housing coupled to the lens.
1. A safety light comprising:
a top housing having a top surface;
a lens comprising (i) a first angled reflective surface and (ii) a plurality of side surfaces extending perpendicular to the top surface of the top housing; and
a plurality of light elements positioned between the top housing and the lens, the plurality of light elements configured to emit a light in an opposite direction from the top surface of the top housing;
wherein the lens is configured to project the light emitted from the plurality of light elements through the plurality of side surfaces.
2. The safety light of claim 1 wherein the lens comprises a bottom reflective surface and the angle between the bottom reflective surface and the first angled reflective surface is from 110° to 150°.
3. The safety light of claim 1 wherein the lens further comprises a second angled reflective surface and the angle between the first angled reflective surface and the second angled reflective surface is from 80° to 100°.
4. The safety light of claim 3 wherein the second angled reflective surface is flat.
5. The safety light of claim 4 wherein the first angled reflective surface is flat.
6. The safety light of claim 1 wherein the lens is configured to reflect the light off the first angled reflective surface of the lens, and project the light through the plurality of side surfaces of the lens.
7. The safety light of claim 1 wherein the lens comprises four side surfaces.
8. The safety light of claim 1 wherein the light elements are light emitting diodes (LEDs).
9. The safety light of claim 1 wherein each of the plurality of side surfaces is flat.
10. The safety light of claim 1 wherein the first angled reflective surface is flat.
11. The safety light of claim 1 wherein the top housing is formed from a thermoplastic polymer.
12. The safety light of claim 1 further comprising a gasket positioned between the top housing and the lens, the gasket forming a watertight seal between the lens and the top housing.
13. The safety light of claim 1 further comprising:
a beacon light element positioned between the top housing and the lens; and
a beacon light lens coupled to the beacon light element, the beacon light lens extending through a wall of the top housing.
14. The safety light of claim 13 wherein the beacon light element emits a beacon light in an opposite direction from the light emitted from the plurality of light elements.
15. The safety light of claim 1 further comprising a bottom housing coupled to the lens.
16. The safety light of claim 15 wherein the bottom housing is formed from a thermoplastic polymer.
17. The safety light of claim 15 further comprising a gasket positioned between the bottom housing and the lens, the gasket forming a watertight seal between the lens and the bottom housing.
18. The safety light of claim 15 wherein the bottom housing comprises a magnet.
19. The safety light of claim 18 wherein the magnet is encapsulated in a waterproof coating.
