Abstract (en)

[origin: WO0173732A1] An emergency light and sign assembly, comprises a base unit (11) arranged to be mounted to a ceiling (33) and a sign body (12) which clips onto the base. The base (11) has an essentially convex shape when viewed from below, with a concave reflector region (19) around the bulb (13) and bulb receptacle (32). The sign body (12) comprises a clipping portion (35) which clips over the peripheral edge of the light base (11), and the sign blade (37) which, when mounted to the base, projects below the bulb (13). The sign body (12) is formed as two moulded shell halves which are held together by clips (36) located about the periphery of the sign body. Sign carrying surfaces (31) of the sign body (12) carry sign images which may be located on one or both surfaces of the blade (37). The sign images may be applied by screen printing onto the surface, or alternatively, a translucent film may be applied to the surface or clipped into place.
