1. A light wing device for reflecting light for a window of a building, wherein said light wing device comprises:
- a light wing configured for reflecting light, wherein said light wing comprises a pivot axis configured such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis, wherein said light wing comprises a first side and a second side, wherein said pivot axis is positioned and configured such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis in a first direction toward said first side of said light wing and configured to rotate in a generally opposite second direction to said first direction toward said second side of said light wing;
a mounting mechanism configured for attachment to said light wing and configured for mounting said light wing in association with said window, wherein said mounting mechanism is configured such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis when mounted with said mounting mechanism in association with said window; and
wherein said light wing is configured to be mounted in association with said window in a general first position, wherein in said first position said light wing is configured to provide light reflection, wherein said light wing is configured such that when a force is applied generally to said first side of said light wing or said second side of said light wing when said light wing is in said first position said light wing rotates generally away from said force to prevent said light wing from breaking from said application of force, wherein said light wing is configured to be biased to rotate back toward said first position when said force is reduced.

Abstract
A light wing device for mounting on a window in order to provide light reflection has been disclosed. The light wing device generally has a light wing, a mounting mechanism, and the light wing is configured to rotate away from the application of force to the light wing. This rotating light wing prevents premature breakage of the light wing from force encountering the light wing.

15. A light wing device for reflecting light for a window of a building, wherein said light wing device comprises:
-
a light wing configured for reflecting light, wherein said light wing comprises a pivot axis positioned such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis, wherein said light wing comprises a first side and a second side, wherein said pivot axis is positioned and configured such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis in a first direction toward said first side of said light wing and configured to rotate in a generally opposite second direction to said first direction toward said second side of said light wing; a mounting mechanism configured for attachment to said light wing and configured for mounting said light wing in association with said window, wherein said mounting mechanism is configured such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis when mounted with said mounting mechanism in association with said window, wherein said light wing is configured to be mounted in association with said window in a general first position, wherein in said first position said light wing is configured to provide light reflection, wherein said light wing is configured such that when a force is applied generally to said first side of said light wing or said second side of said light wing when said light wing is in said first position said light wing rotates generally away from said force to prevent said light wing from breaking from said application of force, wherein said light wing is configured to be biased to rotate back toward said first position when said force is reduced; and an adjustment mechanism configured for varying said first position of said light wing. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18)

20. A light wing device for reflecting light for a window of a building, wherein said light wing device comprises:
-
a light wing configured for reflecting light, wherein said light wing comprises a pivot axis positioned such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis, wherein said light wing comprises a first side and a second side, wherein said pivot axis is positioned and configured such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis in a first direction toward said first side of said light wing and configured to rotate in a generally opposite second direction to said first direction toward said second side of said light wing; a mounting mechanism configured for attachment to said light wing and configured for mounting said light wing in association with said window, wherein said mounting mechanism is configured such that said light wing is configured to rotate on said pivot axis when mounted with said mounting mechanism in association with said window, wherein said light wing is configured to be mounted in association with said window in a general first position, wherein in said first position said light wing is configured to light reflection, wherein said light wing is configured such that when a force is applied generally to said first side of said light wing or said second side of said light wing when said light wing is in said first position said light wing rotates generally away from said force to prevent said light wing from breaking from said application of force, wherein said light wing is configured to be biased to rotate back toward said first position when said force is reduced; an adjustment mechanism configured for varying said first position of said light wing; and a biasing mechanism for biasing said light wing from a position toward said second position or a position toward said third position back toward said first position when said application of force is reduced.
