Abstract

Quickly USB Charging ports for lighting device has USB charging-ports which meet 2007 released specification has minimum 1.0 Amp to 5 Amp at DC 5 Volt safety and quickly charging capacity to quickly charge DC current into energy-storage unit or assembly inside the other electric or digital product(s) without high voltage DC current for overheat and fire risk and, optionally, additional outlet-units, to supply AC current to other electric or digital devices including smart phone, computer, communication, consumer electric products. The USB-unit(s) or USB-Module(s) or Outlet-unit(s) fit within or install on anywhere of the item's housing including anywhere of the base, pole, bar, stand, step, contour, edge, walls. The said USB charger only has charging function no any data transmit and only have one input power source not more than one and charging capacity minimum 1.0 Amp up for quickly charge from USB-Charging-ports by 2 male USB-plugs' USB-wire to the device's female USB-ports. The device has 2nd or more circuit-inside of device's housing to supply the current to other functions including other light source, LEDs, Plurality of LEDs has different colors, controller, switch, sensor, motion sensor, PIR, remote controller, IP cam and related IR photo-diode or wireless communication for big current needed which may use 2nd transformer to supply big Amperage and different working voltage to prevent from 1 transformer not only supply USB Charging-ports(s) but also Big Power consumption for LEDs or other light source or other functions need power.

Claims9

Dependent claims

A desktop or floor light device, comprising:

a charging system arranged to get AC power from an AC outlet and through AC-to-DC circuitry,
wherein the AC-to-DC circuitry is:
(a) built-in the light device;
(b) built-in an outside transformer plugged into the AC outlet or connected with the AC outlet and the light device by a wire and plug;
(c) built inside an LED bulb or CFL bulb having an AC power bulb base,
wherein the AC-to-DC circuitry converts AC current into first DC power for supply to at least one of:
(1) at least one white color LED light source including at least one cool and warm white LED for reading or working illumination,
(2) a wireless charging unit which is
(2a) fixed or installed on a compartment of the light device,
(2b) a wired unit and disassembled from and reassembled to the compartment of the device, or
(2c) a unit having space for a wire arrangement, and
(3) at least one DC-to-DC circuit, integrated circuit, electric parts included within the light device, LED bulb, or CFL bulb to change the first DC power into at least one second DC power for supply to at least one of:
(i) a USB charging unit or the wireless charging unit with or without a wire connection with the LED light;
(ii) a colorful LED light source for accent or nightlight illumination, besides the cool and warm white LED for reading or working illumination;
and
(iii) at least one additional function or device to provide a function that is in addition to single white light illumination and that is selected from at least one of:
(1) a fan or airflow device;
(2) a clock, alarm clock, or timepiece;
(3) an integrated circuit for color changing and/or freezing;
(4) a Bluetooth connected audio device;
(5) a tray or compartment for storing a key or pocket items;
(6) at least one second LED having sufficient brightness to illuminate a person or object situated in front of and reflected by a cosmetic mirror to provide a clear reflected or enlarged and reflected image;
(7) at least one second LED to illuminate an object or person situated in front of the light device to capture by a camera or reflect by a mirror an image of the object or person;
and
(8) at least one receiving connector or USB port for inputting DC power to operate built-in functions of the LED light,
wherein the light device includes at least one built-in, fixed, detachable, or replaceable LED light source that provides illumination over an area or object and that is selected from the following:
A. an LED light source;
B. a plurality of LEDs;
C. at least one chip-on-board (COB) LED;
and
D. at least one LED bulb powered by AC power and at least one built-in AC-to-DC circuit,
wherein, in addition to said LED illumination, the light device provides a USB or wireless charging function without data delivery, and
wherein a DC working voltage of the LED light source is different than a working voltage of the USB charger.
