Electroluminescent Lamp Devices And Their Manufacture

View page
US Patent:
6465951, Oct 15, 2002
Filed:
May 1, 2000
Appl. No.:
09/563546
Inventors:
Robert J. Krafcik - Phoenix AZ
Douglas T. Wheeler - New York NY
Walter J. Paciorek - Phoenix AZ
Ralph McGuigan - Phoenix AZ
Rodney T. Eckersley - Tempe AZ
Dee Lynn Johnson - Woodbury MN
Harold T. Munson - North Oakdale MN
Assignee:
Durel Corporation - Chandler AZ
International Classification:
H01J 162
US Classification:
313512, 313502, 313503, 313506, 313509, 445 52, 445 22
Abstract:
A method for forming an electroluminescent lamp unit. A multi-layer sheet form electroluminescent lamp, the multi-layer sheet form lamp includes a pair of sheet-form conductive layers, one of which is transparent for transmitting light emitted from the particles, an electroluminescent sheet-form layer disposed between the pair of sheet-form conductive layers and having electroluminescent particles, and a carrier substrate for supporting the pair of sheet-form conductive layers and electroluminescent sheet-form layer. The multi-layer sheet form lamp is heated at a temperature sufficient for maintaining the operational integrity of said carrier substrate and said thermoplastic layers. The multi-layer sheet form lamp is them formed into a desired three-dimensional shape.

Low Cost Inverter With Both Discrete And Integrated Power Switches

US Patent:
57809755, Jul 14, 1998
Filed:
Oct 9, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/731063
Inventors:
Robert J. Krafcik - Phoenix AZ
Assignee:
Duiel Corporation - Chandlen AZ
International Classification:
G09G 312
G09G 1932
US Classification:
3151693
Abstract:
An inverter for powering an electroluminescent lamp includes a supply terminal, a ground terminal, a first switching transistor, an inductor, and a second switcing transistor connected in series between the supply terminal and the ground terminal. As implemented in a semiconductor device, one of the switching transistors in a discrete device and the other of the switching transistors is included in the same die as the driving circuit for the switching transistors. The sum of die cost, packaging cost, and external device cost is a minimum for a single, external power transistor.

US Patent:
58119302, Sep 22, 1998
Filed:
Oct 15, 1996
Appl. No.:
8/731519
Inventors:
Robert J. Krafcik - Phoenix AZ
Douglas T. Wheeler - Tempe AZ
Walter J. Paciorek - Phoenix AZ
Ralph McGuigan - Phoenix AZ
Rodney T. Eckersley - Tempe AZ
Dee Lynn Johnson - Woodbury MN
Harold T. Munson - Woodbury MN
Assignee:
Durel Corporation - Chandler AZ
International Classification:
H01J 162
H01J 6304
G09F 1322
G09G 312
US Classification:
313510
Abstract:
An electroluminescent lamp unit includes a flat deformable substrate of preselected size having smaller sheet-form flexible electroluminescent lamps secured face-to-face at preselected positions on a surface of the substrate, the lamps connected with conductive traces on the substrate. The flat substrate with secured lamps can be deformed into a desired shape to provide a relatively inexpensive and reliable electroluminescent lamp unit applicable for a wide variety of applications. The flexible electroluminescent lamps of the unit can be individually addressable and may have different colors or intensities. A method of manufacture of such units employs surface mount technology in an automated version, pick and place robots select and place the lamps as instructed, followed by ultrasonic welding or mechanical or adhesive fastening.

US Patent:
60694440, May 30, 2000
Filed:
Feb 24, 1998
Appl. No.:
9/028622
Inventors:
Robert J. Krafcik - Phoenix AZ
Douglas T. Wheeler - Tempe AZ
Walter J. Paciorek - Phoenix AZ
Ralph McGuigan - Phoenix AZ
Rodney T. Eckersley - Tempe AZ
Dee Lynn Johnson - Woodbury MN
Harold T. Munson - Woodbury MN
Assignee:
Durel Corporation - Chandler AZ
International Classification:
H01J 162
US Classification:
313510
Abstract:
An electroluminescent lamp assembly includes electroluminescent lamps of selected limited size placed and secured upon a larger printed circuit substrate employing surface mount techniques. The electroluminescent lamp assembly includes a substrate having a relatively large lamp receiving surface and relatively smaller lamps. At least one of these smaller lamps is a multi-layer sheet-form electroluminescent lamp having a sheet-form layer containing electroluminescent particles, the layer disposed between a pair of sheet-form conductive layers, one of which is transparent for transmitting light emitted from the particles. The electroluminescent lamps each have conductors exposed for engagement and connection with conductive traces on the lamp receiving surface of the substrate in a surface mounted face-to-face arrangement and are distributed in spaced-apart relationship according to a preselected illumination pattern and connected to the conductive traces.

Three Dimensional Electroluminescent Display

US Patent:
57809658, Jul 14, 1998
Filed:
Dec 9, 1993
Appl. No.:
8/164142

Michael W. Cass - Lenox MI
Rodney T. Eckersley - Tempe AZ
Robert J. Krafcik - Phoenix AZ
Walter J. Paciorek - Phoenix AZ
Ramona R. Fechter - West Bend WI
Assignee:
Key Plastics, Inc. - Novi MI
International Classification:
H05B 3300
US Classification:
313506
Abstract:
A three dimensional electroluminescent display includes a transparent sheet, a translucent layer placed on the transparent sheet, at least one electroluminescent (EL) lamp placed adjacent the translucent layer, and a substrate molded to the EL lamp and transparent sheet to form an integral, molded three dimensional EL display and a method of making the same.
