FIG. 17 Illustrates diagrammatically a side view cross-section of a transparent solid material light-guide stem structure combined with its geometrical curveddesign configuration principle.
-
… 16 illustrates a curved-angular light-guide stem 144Y configuration; and FIG. 17 is a curved light-guide stem 144Z configuration.
-
with conical lens 20 of FIG. 283, with V-shaped lens 90 of FIG. 285, and with angular surface lens 120 of FIG. 288. Light-guide stem 144X can be used in wall lens 30 of FIG. 284. Light-guide stem 144Z of FIG. 17 can be used in place of any light-guide stem configuration-by simply arcing or curving the stem surface to the desired transmission angle.

… 13 through FIG. 17) would cause light rays 3a xxx n to pass through the transparent refractive material 145 and be lost for further light transmission. …
-
Beyond the light-lost factor, the criticai angle of reflection 152 can, now, be used to increase the directivity of incident light radiation from that of linear to angular displacement of light transmission. FIG. 13, FIG. 14, FIG. 15, FIG. 16 and FIG. 17, illustrates different critical angle of reflection geometrical design configuration for solid 144 and/or tubular 146 lightguide stems.
-
Unlike FIG. 13 through FIG. 16, the geometrical design configuration 144Z of FIG. 17 illustrates a curved or sloped light-guide stem. The arc-degree curvature or slant of light-guide stem 144Z of FIG. 17 can vary from zero degree (0°) to more than forty-five (45°) from horizontal line 183Z of FIG. …

… 17 can vary from zero degree (0°) to more than forty-five (45°) from horizontal line 183Z of FIG. 17 for any pre-determined light transmission angle. …
-
… The arc-shaped line 153Za and 153Z6 (line 153Z6 is parallel to line 153Za) is uniformly formed around a central axis 164Z of FIG. 17. …
-
Since geometrical design configuration 144W of FIG. 14, configuration 144X of FIG. 15, configuration 144Y of FIG. 16, and configuration 144Z of FIG. 17, demonstrates non-linear light transmission, certain new and different changes in light ray directivity within the lens-core takes place as compared to FIG. …
