Abstract
A novel lighting device is provided which projects two simultaneous yet distinct lighting effects to its surrounding areas from a central mounted and covered light source, firstly illuminating a proximate surface directly by the light source and by reflection of a cover, and secondly light is remotely provided by optically conductive materials which transmit and project light, such that the central light source projects onto proximate surface areas directly and by reflection, and light projects remotely and outwardly, carried from said source by light transmission utilizing optically conductive materials.
Claims10
A lighting device comprising:
- a reflective cover mounted proximate to a surface;
- a single powered light-emitting diode (LED) disposed within the reflective cover,
- the LED configured to emit light substantially unobstructed except for a portion in integral contact with a light conduit;
- wherein the light conduit is configured to transmit light away from the LED, and extends outward from the reflective cover to enable remote light projection;
- and
- wherein the reflective cover is configured to contain the LED and the light conduit and to direct light emitted from the unobstructed portion of the LED onto the surface.
