Abstract
A lighting system may include a plurality of suspenders and a beam configured to provide light in at least one direction. The suspenders may structurally support the beam from a ceiling and may provide electrical power and dimming control signals to the beam. The beam may include a plurality of light engines for emitting light. The light engines may be single sided or dual sided, and may transmit electrical power among each other. The dual sided light engines may emit light upwardly and downwardly from the beam, and the single sided light engines may emit light downwardly.
Claims10
A light engine configured to emit light, comprising:
- a body comprising a plurality of sides including a first side having a first surface and a second side having a second surface, the second side being mirror opposite to the first side with the first side extending along a first plane and the second side extending along a second plane that is spaced from the first plane;
- a first light source disposed on the first surface of the first side of the body and extending away from the first surface of the first side in a first direction;
- a first pair of wires having a first end and a second end, the first light source being connected to the first pair of wires between the first end and the second end and configured to receive electrical power through the first pair of wires;
- a second light source disposed on the second surface of the second side of the body and extending away from the second surface in a second direction that is mirror opposite the first direction;
- and
- a second pair of wires having a first end and a second end, the second light source being connected to the second pair of wires between the first end and the second end of the second pair of wires and configured to receive electrical power through the second pair of wires.
