ABSTRACT:
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to cyclist clothing with illuminated traffic signals and more particularly pertains to a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals for providing better and more visible rear lighting for motorcyclists.
2. Description of the Prior Art
The use of cyclist clothing with illuminated traffic signals is known in the prior art. More specifically, cyclist clothing with illuminated traffic signals heretofore devised and utilized are known to consist basically of familiar, expected and obvious structural configurations, notwithstanding the myriad of designs encompassed by the crowded prior art which have been developed for the fulfillment of countless objectives and requirements.
Known prior art includes U.S. Pat. Nos. 4,709,307; 4,164,008; 4,760,373; 5,040,099; 4,328,533; and U.S. Pat. No. Des. 259,146.
While these devices fulfill their respective, particular objectives and requirements, the aforementioned patents do not disclose a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals. The inventive device includes a garment having a back side, a neck opening, and arm openings; and further includes a light-emitting assembly including light-emitting members being disposed in the back side of said garment, and also including wires and a power cord being connected to the light-emitting members, and further including a connector plug being attached to an end of the power cord and being adapted to plug into a power jack of a motorcycle.
In these respects, the motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals according to the present invention substantially departs from the conventional concepts and designs of the prior art, and in so doing provides an apparatus primarily developed for the purpose of providing better and more visible rear lighting for motorcyclists.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
In view of the foregoing disadvantages inherent in the known types of cyclist clothing with illuminated traffic signals now present in the prior art, the present invention provides a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals construction wherein the same can be utilized for providing better and more visible rear lighting for motorcyclists.
The general purpose of the present invention, which will be described subsequently in greater detail, is to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which has many of the advantages of the cyclist clothing with illuminated traffic signals mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art cyclist clothing with illuminated traffic signals, either alone or in any combination thereof.
To attain this, the present invention generally comprises a garment having a back side, a neck opening, and arm openings; and further includes a light-emitting assembly including light-emitting members being disposed in the back side of said garment, and also including wires and a power cord being connected to the light-emitting members, and further including a connector plug being attached to an end of the power cord and being adapted to plug into a power jack of a motorcycle.
There has thus been outlined, rather broadly, the more important features of the invention in order that the detailed description thereof that follows may be better understood, and in order that the present contribution to the art may be better appreciated. There are additional features of the invention that will be described hereinafter and which will form the subject matter of the claims appended hereto.
In this respect, before explaining at least one embodiment of the invention in detail, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited in its application to the details of construction and to the arrangements of the components set forth in the following description or illustrated in the drawings. The invention is capable of other embodiments and of being practiced and carried out in various ways. Also, it is to be understood that the phraseology and terminology employed herein are for the purpose of description and should not be regarded as limiting.
As such, those skilled in the art will appreciate that the conception, upon which this disclosure is based, may readily be utilized as a basis for the designing of other structures, methods and systems for carrying out the several purposes of the present invention. It is important, therefore, that the claims be regarded as including such equivalent constructions insofar as they do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
Further, the purpose of the foregoing abstract is to enable the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office and the public generally, and especially the scientists, engineers and practitioners in the art who are not familiar with patent or legal terms or phraseology, to determine quickly from a cursory inspection the nature and essence of the technical disclosure of the application. The abstract is neither intended to define the invention of the application, which is measured by the claims, nor is it intended to be limiting as to the scope of the invention in any way.
It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which has many of the advantages of the cyclist clothing with illuminated traffic signals mentioned heretofore and many novel features that result in a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which is not anticipated, rendered obvious, suggested, or even implied by any of the prior art cyclist clothing with illuminated traffic signals, either alone or in any combination thereof.
It is another object of the present invention to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which may be easily and efficiently manufactured and marketed.
It is a further object of the present invention to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which is of a durable and reliable construction.
An even further object of the present invention is to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which is susceptible of a low cost of manufacture with regard to both materials and labor, and which accordingly is then susceptible of low prices of sale to the consuming public, thereby making such motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals economically available to the buying public.
Still yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which provides in the apparatuses and methods of the prior art some of the advantages thereof, while simultaneously overcoming some of the disadvantages normally associated therewith.
Still another object of the present invention is to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals for providing better and more visible rear lighting for motorcyclists.
Yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals which includes a garment having a back side, a neck opening, and arm openings; and further includes a light-emitting assembly including light-emitting members being disposed in the back side of said garment, and also including wires and a power cord being connected to the light-emitting members, and further including a connector plug being attached to an end of the power cord and being adapted to plug into a power jack of a motorcycle.
Still yet another object of the present invention is to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals that is easy and convenient to use.
Even still another object of the present invention is to provide a new motorcyclist garment with illuminated traffic signals that dramatically increases safety for motorcycles by making motorcycles more visible for drivers of other vehicles.
These together with other objects of the invention, along with
