Abstract
A lighting system for a vertical garden includes at least one light ring including a central hub member configured to be removably mounted to the vertical garden, an outer ring member, and a plurality of spoke members extending radially between the central hub member and the outer ring member, a plurality of light sources supported in the outer ring member, and a drive circuit for the plurality of light sources, a power supply, and at least one power connector connected between the drive circuit and the power supply.
Claims20
A lighting system for a vertical garden, the lighting system comprising:
- at least one light ring including a central hub member configured to be removably mounted to the vertical garden, an outer ring member, and a plurality of spoke members extending radially between the central hub member and the outer ring member, a plurality of light sources supported in the outer ring member, and a drive circuit for the plurality of light sources;
- a power supply;
- and
- at least one power connector connected between the drive circuit and the power supply.
A vertical garden comprising:
- a plurality of planter modules that are stackable along a common vertical axis and define interior through-cavities;
- a plurality of light rings that each include a central hub member configured to be removably mounted between two of the plurality of planter modules, an outer ring member, and a plurality of spoke members extending radially between the central hub member and the outer ring member, a plurality of light sources supported in the outer ring member, and a drive circuit for the plurality of light sources arranged in one of the plurality of spoke members, wherein the plurality of light rings are spaced along the common vertical axis;
- a power supply;
- and
- at least one power connector connected between the drive circuit and the power supply, the at least one power connector attached to the central hub member and extending radially inwardly from the central hub member to extend through the interior through-cavities of the plurality of planter modules.
A method for lighting a vertical garden, the method comprising:
- removably mounting at least one light rings to one of a plurality of planter modules that are stackable along a common vertical axis and define interior through-cavities, the at least one light ring including a central hub member configured to be interlocked between two of the plurality of planter modules, an outer ring member, and a plurality of spoke members extending radially between the central hub member and the outer ring member, a plurality of light sources supported in the outer ring member, and a drive circuit for the plurality of light sources arranged in one of the plurality of spoke members;
- and
- connecting at least one power connector between the drive circuit and a power supply.
