1.2. Whereby to control LED lamps a set of standardized color light codes is designed for command with the numerals from 0 to 9.

1.3. Whereby to take a numeric order of six digits a sequence is set to turn on LED lamps on six parts.

1.4. Whereof each part, figure 2, has four reflector panels, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, narrowing coded color lights into the core crystal ball, 1, figure 1.

1.5. Wherein a tube, 2, figure 1, connects and directs light characters from the core to applications.

Claim 2: A Photovoltaic Box

A box, figure 3, contains eight photovoltaic cubes, figure 4, and an ultraviolet beam producer in the center.

2.1. Whereof each photovoltaic cube, figure 4, is made of six bifacial cells with a crystal ball inside the Cube, and set on a reflector bowl.

2.2. Whereof the ultraviolet beam producer has the same structure of the light character producer, figure 1, except with ultraviolet LED lamps mounted on inside surfaces of six electric boards.

2.3. Whereof eight optical fiber lines or tubes direct ultraviolet beams from eight corners of the

ultraviolet beam producer into eight photovoltaic cubes, from corner to corner, figure 3.

2.4. Whereof a box cover has holes with crystal balls, half outside and half inside, and on the inside surface of the box cover ultraviolet LED lamps are mounted around holes.

Claim 3: Power transmission by light transmission

Electricity generates sixteen light beams with two ultraviolet beam producers, figure 1. Sixteen light beams are transmitted into a photovoltaic box, figure 3. Eight of these sixteen light beams are directed into eight photovoltaic cubes, figure 4, inside the box. Another eight light beams spotlight same eight cubes from top through the box cover. The photovoltaic box, figure 3, generates electricity. The process can be repeated over a distance desired.

Description:
A Light Character Producer and Its Extended Application in Photovoltaics

Supporting Technologies

LED (light emitting diodes) and bifacial cells are essential parts of devices invented, but not part of claim for this invention.

Merit of The Invention

A set of standardized light codes is devised for command with the numerals from 0 to 9. A light character producer can generate up to 10xl0xl0xl0xl0xl0{one million) unique light characters for word codes, product codes, or security codes.

An ultraviolet beam producer supplies eight ultraviolet beams into eight photovoltaic cubes enabling 48(8x6) bifacial cells generating electricity both sides.

A photovoltaic box with a rechargeable battery can generate electricity with or without sunlight.

Summary

A cube consists of six equal parts with a core crystal ball. Each part has three sets of LED lamps. Each set has three color lamps: red, green, and blue. Numeric orders control lamps on or off. Lights from six parts are mixed in the core to become unique light characters and then through an optical tube to applications.

An extended application is to convert the light character producer into an ultraviolet beam producer by replacing lamps with ultraviolet LED lamps. Ultraviolet beams are produced through eight corners and then directed by optical fibers or tubes into eight photovoltaic cubes. Each photovoltaic cube is made of six bifacial cells with a crystal ball to reflect ultraviolet beam expansively and evenly onto inside surface of bifacial cells.

To enhance photovoltaic effect of outside surface of bifacial cells, the photovoltaic cube is set on a reflector bowl.

Description

A cube, figure 1, is made by assembling six equal parts together with a core crystal ball, 1. Each part, figure 2, has three sets of LED color lamps, 3.1., 3.2, 3.3, mounted on an inside surface of electric board as a cap. Each set has three color lamps: red, green, blue. LED color lamps are used to emit color light according to a set of standardized color light codes designed for command with the numerals from 0 to 9. Numeric orders control lamps on or off. Hardware of circuit design is not part of the invention.

Six parts together receive numeric orders of six digits of color light codes in a regulated sequence: upper part, lower part, left part, right part, front part, rear part. For example, 012345 input sequence: upper part emits red, green, blue; lower part emits red, red, red; left part emits green, green, green; right part emits blue, blue, blue; front part emits red, red, green; rear part emits red, red,blue.

Each part, figure 2, has four reflector panels, 4.1, 4.2, 4.3, 4.4, narrowing coded color lights into the core crystal ball, 1.

A numeric order such as 012345 can turn on coded color lights on six parts. All the coded color lights from six parts concentrate into the core crystal ball, 1, for mixing up and producing an unique light character of color, wave, and brightness, through an optical tube, 2, to applications such as a word code, a product code, or a security code. Six parts of the light character producer can take numeric orders and generate light characters up to 10x10x10x10x10x10 (one million).

An extended application of this invention is to convert the light character producer into an ultraviolet beam producer by replacing lamps with ultraviolet LED lamps.

A generator of electricity is made with the ultraviolet beam producer in the center of a box, figure 3. The box also contains eight photovoltaic cubes set on reflector bowls, figure 4, around the ultraviolet beam producer.

The photovoltaic cube, figure 4, is made of six bifacial cells, with a crystal ball inside the cube to reflect light beam evenly and expansively onto the inside surfaces of bifacial cells. The cube is set on a reflector bowl, figure 4, to have optimal light concentration onto the outside surfaces of bifacial cells.

Eight photovoltaic beams are emitted from eight corners of the ultraviolet beam producer and directed through optical fibers or tube into eight photovoltaic cubes, from corner to corner to have optimal light beam concentration in production and easier accesses into cubes.

The box cover has holes with crystal balls, half outside and half inside, to have optimal sunlight exposure outside and expansion inside of the box. On the inside surface of the box cover ultraviolet LED lamps are mounted around holes.

The optimal electricity generated by the photovoltaic box, figure 3, is the sum of photovoltaic effects from sunlight and ultraviolet light on bifacial cells. With a rechargeable battery the photovoltaic box can generate electricity with or without sunlight.

The ultraviolet beam producer, figure 1, and the photovoltaic box , figure 3, together can create a revolutionary power transmission. Electricity can be transmitted by light transmission as follows.

Electricity generates sixteen light beams with two ultraviolet beam producers, figure 1. Sixteen light beams are transmitted into a photovoltaic box, figure 3. Eight of these sixteen light beams are directed into eight photovoltaic cubes, figure 4, inside the box. Another eight light beams spotlight same eight cubes from top through the box cover. The photovoltaic box, figure 3, generates electricity. The process can be repeated over a distance desired.

Efficiency of power transmission by light transmission will be affected by four factors: efficiency of ultraviolet LED lamps, efficiency of bifacial cells, means of light transmission, and sunlight.

Sunlight provides a cushion for a successful transmission. Excessive power can be stored in a stand-by battery. Battery power is used to turn on ultraviolet LED lamps installed inside the photovoltaic box, figure 3, when sunlight is not available. The stand-by battery serves as a buffer between peak and off peak time.
