Electromagnetic radiation assembly
First Claim
1. An electromagnetic radiation assembly, comprising:
- a supporting substrate having opposite surfaces and having a region through which an electromagnetic radiation signal may pass;
first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters positioned adjacent to one of the surfaces defined by the substrate, and which, when energized, emit electromagnetic radiation; and
a single reflector disposed in eccentric reflecting relation relative to the first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters, and wherein the emitted electromagnetic radiation produced by the first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters is reflected by the single reflector and passes through the supporting substrate region which passes electromagnetic radiation in different directions.

Abstract
An electromagnetic radiation assembly is described and which includes, a supporting substrate having a region through which visibly discernable electromagnetic radiation forming a signal may pass; first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters are provided and which are positioned adjacent to one of the surfaces defined by the substrate, and which, when energized, emit electromagnetic radiation; and a single reflector is disposed in eccentric reflecting relation relative to the first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters, and wherein emitted electromagnetic radiation is reflected by the single reflector and passes through the supporting substrate region which passes electromagnetic radiation, in different directions.

18. An electromagnetic radiation assembly comprising:
-
a supporting substrate having opposite first and second surfaces, and having a first region which allows electromagnetic radiation to pass therethrough, and a second region adjacent to the first region;
a reflector positioned adjacent to the second surface of the supporting substrate and oriented in a position which is adjacent to the first region; and
at least two electromagnetic radiation emitters mounted on, or adjacent to the second surface of the supporting substrate, and which, when individually energized, emit electromagnetic radiation which is reflected by the reflector through the first region of the supporting substrate, and wherein the energizing of one of the electromagnetic radiation emitters produces visibly discernible electromagnetic radiation which is reflected, at least in part, by the reflector, and which passes through the first region and predominately in a first direction, and wherein energizing of the other of the two electromagnetic radiation emitters emits visibly discernible electromagnetic radiation which is reflected, at least in part, by the reflector, and which passes through the first region and predominately in a second direction which is angularly displaced relative to the first direction. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34)

35. An electromagnetic radiation assembly, comprising:
-
a supporting substrate having opposite surfaces, and having a region through which an electromagnetic radiation signal may pass;
a plurality of first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters positioned adjacent to one of the surfaces defined by the supporting substrate and which, when energized, emit electromagnetic radiation; and
a multi-faceted reflector disposed in eccentric reflecting relation relative to the plurality of first and second electromagnetic radiation emitters, and wherein the emitted electromagnetic radiation produced by the first electromagnetic radiation emitters is substantially reflected through the substrate region in a first direction by a first group of reflector facets, and the emitted electromagnetic radiation produced by the second electromagnetic radiation emitters is substantially reflected by a second group of reflector facets through the substrate region in a second direction. - View Dependent Claims (36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41)
