    • DETAIL DESCRIPTION
  • From the FIG. 1, The time piece (19) with LED light means have the movement (28) and sealed-unit (18) inside housing (2). The sealed unit which have may have any combination selected from LED(s), LED circuit, control means, sensor means, switch means, prong means, this is good for the safety reason because prong means (9) and the LED circuit (not shown) and LED(s) has electric contact with live wires (high voltage) so it need to be meet the safety standard which have very strict material requirement from UL. It is very safety to put all these parts into the sealed unit and to meet the safety standard of the flammable requirement. All rest parts such as movement, light-medium, front sheet (milky or frosted treated sheet) or other housing will not required meet the other safety standard if all parts are sealed by required material. This is one of the features of current invention. It will help on the product design and cost saving issue.
  • From FIG. 1, The arms (5) (6) (7) are well install on the movement (28) axis to make the accurate time display to viewer. The prong means on the back of the housing (2) which may use fix angle or swivel angle construction from conventional available skills. The housing (2) has the sensor means (1) and extra light means (8) on desired location of the said housing (2) so it will offer function to activate the said LED(s) and extra illumination to the floor with stronger light beams.
  • From FIG. 2 disclosure the 2nd embodiment have the Dial face (35) with color changing effects. The time piece (30) has a 2nd light means on lower portion to offer the 2nd lit-area of the time piece (30). This is same as co-pending filing Ser. No. 11/255,981 same scope and we will not discuss further more.
  • From FIG. 3 disclosure the 3rd embodiment has the Dial face (32) and the housing (33) multiple areas with the light effects including the dail face (32) with surface illumination and the housing (33) with a lot of Fiber Optics illumination in dots, logo, name, shape, configuration illumination which may incorporating the Fiber Optics skill, light-medium skill to get these effects. The Time piece may be a wall clock, alarm, night light with analog movement or the others as conventional market available models and options.
  • From FIG. 4 disclosure the details construction of preferable Time piece with LED light means. The movement (80) has its installation points (8A) (8B) (8C) (8D) to allow the movement (80) can tight assembly with the lower housing (81). The prong means (8X) (8Z) are insert into the housing slots (8Y) (8Z′) to allow night light to get the electric power from the power source (here prefer 110Volt AC, 60 hz from home wall outlet in north American area). The lower housing (81) have the movement compartment (8G) to allow movement (80) can fit in tight. The lower housing (81) also have the walls arrangement to make the inner space can install movement (80), light-medium (8K), LED sealed unit (82), prong means (8X) (8Z) on idea locations. The light-medium (8K) have holes (8I) (8L) (8U) has its related screw (8J) (8M) (8T) to allow the light-medium to fasten on the lower housing holes (8E) (8H) (8X′). The light-medium (8K) have the plurality of the input-end such as the right one (8V) which can allow the respectively (8V′) install within the input-end (8V) to allow majority of the LED (8V′) light beams get into the light-medium (8K) and travel within the light-medium (8K) and allow view to see the brightness of whole surface of the light-medium unit. The light-medium (8K) made by plastic material with roughly treatment on its surface by sand-blaster or tooling-texture process (or equivalent skill from conventional market available skills). The rough surface will block out the majority light beams to pass though the edge and make a diffusion to make the light beams traveling within the light-medium because the light-medium is much clear and can let light beam traveling but it will be block out by its rough surface so all light beams will traveling within the medium without big loose to outside. Because the majority of light beams travel within the medium in quantity are much more than the leakage to the outside though the rough surface, so the inner light beams back and forth very fast to make the whole light-medium have almost same photometric scale for the brightness. This is the 1st treatment to make the LED point brightness to the area brightness. The current invention adapted the milky or frosted front sheet to overlay on top of the light-medium is the 2nd treatment to make the light brightness to very even on front of the light-medium. This is totally different with all prior arts such as Kibiloski U.S. Pat. No. 6,987,710 and U.S. Pat. No. 7,054,233 for Wall clock and Alarm clock applications. The Kibiloski treatment which apply the illumination module back side with reflect properties to make all the LED light beams travel within and out from the front surface is not workable at all. The Kibiloski theory is not real and not practically at all. It have to be have all 5 side of the said illumination module been sealed by mirror like reflectors material without any light beams been leakage from these 5 sides, then, it maybe can get the result. However, it will be a lot of labor with so details work which is not practical for mass production for standard quality requirement. The current invention has features for simple, uniform, easily operation and low cost, less labor involved features.
  • The arms (8S) (8R) (8Q) are install on the movement (80) axis (8C) as normal installation to show the time message to viewer.

The light-medium (44) have very rough surface by sand-blaster or tooling-texture or adding milky compound or other conventional market available skills to make it very rough on its entire surface as earlier discussion. The light beams travel within the light-medium and quickly back and forth to make the bright spot LED change from point light to surface light is the current invention features. None of people apply this before the current invention. In front of the light-medium has a milky or frosted front sheet (not shown) which can make-up for any bright and dark areas into perfectly photometric illumination. By these two treatments, the dial face will have perfectly brightness on every points of the entire dial face surface. A clear arms protective cover (43) are tightly fit and assembly within the front housing (42) (46) to the back housing (46′) and fasten by tighten means may selected from screws, solvent, sonic sealing, glue, rivet, or other equivalent skills from the art. The prong means (48) and LED (49) are designed into the earlier said sealed unit so this will be very safety than any other models which all electric components are exposure to the air which is costly because all material have to use V-0 Flammable grade to pass UL standard with very thick wall thickness and have to buy from certain UL listed supplier. The axis (45) to install the second, minutes, hour, or time setting need to be longer enough to allow the added light-medium thickness can properly fit top of the movement cover and under the arms. There may have the decorative dial face, stencil, milky/frosted front sheet with printing, logo, marking, 12 designs on the position on top of the light-medium unit. The movement have to be special made to have longer axis than any other conventional time piece movement.
