LED bulb or LED night light having a moving projection image
First Claim
1. A moving projection-image assembly for a plug-in night light or LED bulb, comprising:
- at least one LED;
at least one image-carrier;
at least one projection-lens for projecting an image formed when light beams from the at least one LED pass through the image carrier, the at least one projection-lens increasing a viewing angle of the image as it projects an enlarged image to a surface situated at least an arm'"'"'s length away from the moving projection-image assembly, wherein the at least one LED, image-carrier, and projection-lens fit within or are supported by one of a frame, support, and housing parts, said frame, support, and housing parts arranged to fit within a plug-in night light or LED bulb; and
at least one moving device for causing the projected enlarged image to appear to move, the at least one moving device including at least one of;
(a) a controller for turning multiple LEDs on and off at different times to cause the apparent motion of the projected image;
(b) a motor or time movement for causing movement of the at least one image-carrier or the at least one projection-lens to cause the apparent motion of the projected enlarged image; and
(c) a magnetic-unit and magnetic coil set for causing the movement of the at least one image-carrier or the at least one projection-lens to cause the apparent motion of the projected enlarged image.

Abstract
An LED light device includes an LED night light or LED bulb having a moving projection image. The movement effect is obtained by (1) causing LEDs to illuminate with a time difference, (2) using a magnetic field force to cause a film, opening, printed piece, or slide to move, shake, spin, rotate, or vibrate, or (3) using a motor or movement to cause the film/opening/printed piece/slide or a projection-lens to move, shake, spin, rotate, or vibrate. Light beams from an LED light source pass through the film/opening/printed piece/slide and then through a projection lens that causes a tiny lighted image to become a bigger or more colorful moving projected image having a wider viewing angle.
