040219000 | TRANSLUCENT MIRRORS WITH INDICIA | 6 |
20080244940 | Periodic messaging system - A periodic messaging system is described. The messaging system includes a mirror having a front side and a back side, with the front side being reflective. A message device is attached with the back side of the mirror and is configured to display a periodic, illuminated message. The mirror includes a transparent portion and the message device is attached with the back side of the mirror such that the periodic, illuminated message is displayed toward the transparent portion. Thus, when the message is illuminated, the message is viewable from the front side of the mirror, whereby through use of the message device, a user can present periodic messages to viewers using a mirror. | 10-09-2008 |
20090165344 | REFLECTIVE SIGNAGE - A sign comprising at least one support member and a body portion attached to the support member. The sign includes at least one reflective layer secured to the body portion. The sign includes at least one optically transmissive layer secured to the reflective layer such that the reflective layer is positioned between the optically transmissive layer and the body portion. The optically transmissive layer defines an interior portion, a border encompassing the interior portion, and at least one message positioned at least partially within the interior portion. The interior portion and the border comprise contrasting colors. The reflective layer is structured to reflect light through the optically transmissive layer to augment the contrast between the interior portion and the border to thereby enhance the visibility of the message. | 07-02-2009 |
20100058628 | Frame Assembly for Displaying Indicia and Reflecting An Image - The invention relates to a frame assembly for displaying a plurality of indicia and reflecting an image. The frame assembly comprises a frame supporting at least one light source, a sheet member positioned adjacent to the light source, a substrate bearing indicia releasably secured to the sheet member, a mirror positioned adjacent to the sheet member and light source, and a sensor for detecting an object. The frame assembly in a first mode displays desired indicia through the mirror and, upon the sensor detecting an object at a desired distance, in a second mode functions as a mirror to reflect an image. | 03-11-2010 |
20110056102 | FRAME ASSEMBLY FOR DISPLAYING INDICIA AND REFLECTING AN IMAGE - The invention relates to a frame assembly for displaying a plurality of indicia and reflecting an image. The frame assembly comprises a display unit for displaying indicia, an enclosure for supporting the display unit, a mirror supported by the enclosure, a sensor supported by the enclosure, a mass storage device for storing the indicia to be displayed on the display unit, a central processing unit for processing the indicia, a signaling system for switching the frame assembly between a first and second mode of operation, a controller in communication with the sensor and central processing unit, and a power supply display unit. The frame assembly in a first mode displays desired indicia through the mirror and, upon the sensor detecting an object at a desired distance, in a second mode functions as a mirror to reflect an image. | 03-10-2011 |
20110107631 | Integrated mirror and graphics display system - An integrated mirror and graphics display system includes a sheet of substantially transparent material, the sheet having a front and a back, the back having a silvered or reflective region and at least one primary non-silvered region. Also included is a sheet of translucent material, having printed on or embedded in it a graphic of interest to a system user, the translucent sheet secured or painted upon the back of the transparent sheet against the non-silvered region. The system further includes an illumination element defining an area smaller, equal to or greater than that of the non-silvered region and secured in optical communication with the translucent sheet. A secondary non-silvered region may be used to provide owner-specific personalized information. | 05-12-2011 |
20150371569 | ILLUMINATED DISPLAY MIRROR - An illuminated display mirror includes a frame having panel receiving area defined by a front retaining portion and a side retaining portion extending rearwardly from the front retaining portion, a transparent panel to be held within said panel receiving area and having a highly reflective coating at least partially on a surface thereof and at least part of the surface free of any reflective coating and defining an image receiving area, and having a registration indicia, a light transmissive substrate having a printed image thereon and having a corresponding registration indicia formed thereon for registering the printed image in the image receiving area and a light emitting member. | 12-24-2015 |
