CPC B64F 1/20 (2013.01) | 7 Claims |
1. A lamp for a precision approach path indicator comprising:
at least two radiation sources emitting electromagnetic radiation of different wavelengths, a beam of radiation of a first wavelength and a beam of radiation of a second wavelength,
a partition for separating the beam of radiation of the first wavelength from the beam of radiation of the second wavelength, the partition having a first width (a), and
an offsetting element that offsets at least one of the beams towards the other of the beams by a second width (c) to compensate for the obstruction created by the partition,
wherein the offsetting element is a glass prism with two parallel first faces of a width (b), such that when the offsetting element is angled towards the beam of radiation of the second wavelength, the offsetting element creates a light path that is offset by the first width (a) of the partition, and with at least one second face angled in relation to the parallel first faces, such that when the offsetting element is angled towards the beam of radiation of the second wavelength, the second face is parallel to and below the beam of radiation of the first wavelength.
