ABSTRACT:
A motor vehicle light system provides constant lighting or directional indication in a simple and effective manner, and keeps the lens clean so that it can be seen even under inclement weather conditions or the like. A hollow cylinder of transparent material, which may have alternating axially extending strips of different color, is mounted in a motor vehicle for rotation about a horizontal or vertical axis, with one or more light bulbs disposed in its hollow interior. A brush is stationarily mounted with respect to the motor vehicle, the brush bristles engaging the external periphery of the cylinder to keep it clean as the cylinder is rotated with respect to the brush, and the motor vehicle. A motor for rotating the cylinder may be series connected with the light bulb(s) within the cylinder.
