Accessory brake light system for automobile
First Claim
1. An accessory brake light system for an automobile, comprisingan elongated housing having a receiving cavity therein and a front transparent shield covering said receiving cavity;
- a lighting apparatus comprising a plurality of brake lighting LEDs mounted within said receiving cavity of said elongated housing;
an electrical controlling device, electrically connected with said lighting apparatus, a power source of said automobile and a braking signal source, for activating said lighting apparatus to provide lighting when braking signals are received from said braking signal source during a braking condition of said automobile, wherein said electrical controlling device comprises power supply terminals electrically connected with a power wiring of said automobile and a signal activating circuitry connecting to said braking signal source of said automobile for activating said electrical controlling device when said braking signals from said braking signal source of said automobile are received, said signal activating circuitry comprising a manual activating switch which is to turn on said accessory brake light system manually under emergency situation, a coupler C1, two resistors R1, R2, and a transistor T1, in which said transistor T1 is connected in series with said power supply terminals and said manual activating switch which is further connected in parallel with a capacitor C2 and said coupler C1 which is connected in series with said resistors R1, R2, said resistors R1, R2 being connected to said braking signal source of said automobile through a brake switch assembly; and
a mounting means for firmly securing said elongated housing to a frontmost central position between two front head lamps of said automobile.

Abstract
An accessory brake light system for automobile includes an elongated housing having a receiving cavity therein and a front transparent shield covering the receiving cavity, a lighting apparatus having a plurality of brake lighting LEDs mounted within the receiving cavity of the elongated housing, an electrical controlling device for connecting the lighting apparatus with the power source of the automobile and activating the lighting apparatus to provide lighting when the automobile is braked, and a mounting means for firmly securing the elongated housing to a frontmost central position of the automobile, such as a central position on the front bumper, the front license case, or a radiation cover positioning between the two front head lamps of the automobile. Whereby the automobile can provide specific warning signals when the automobile is braking to slow down or fully stopped, in order to enable the other vehicles or pedestrians that are positioned in front of the vehicle to clearly aware that whether the driver of that vehicle is preparing to stop or not and hence reduce the chance of accident from happening.
