Abstract
Example lighting systems may include a group charging station and a lighting device. Example group charging stations may include a plurality of power devices operable to power the lighting device, the plurality of power devices comprising a first power device and a second power device, the first power device comprising a first plurality of electrical contacts, the second power device comprising a second plurality of electrical contacts, and a group charging platform operable to concurrently charge the plurality of power devices.
Claims11
A group charging station comprising:
- a plurality of lighting devices each comprising a light source and a light source holder configured to disburse light from the light source;
- a plurality of power devices, each operable to be coupled to one of the plurality of lighting devices to power one of the plurality of lighting devices, comprising:
- a first power device comprising:
- a first plurality of electrical contacts;
- and
- a first plurality of power device magnets;
- a second power device comprising:
- a second plurality of electrical contacts;
- and
- a second plurality of power device magnets;
- and
- a group charging platform operable to concurrently charge the plurality of power devices, the group charging platform comprising:
- a plurality of group charging platform magnets;
- a surface formed by a plurality of charging tiles, wherein:
- the first plurality of power device magnets and the second plurality of power device magnets are operable to form, with the plurality of group charging platform magnets, a plurality of magnetic connections that facilitate positive engagement and negative engagement of the plurality of power devices to the plurality of charging tiles such that a first conductive path is formed from the group charging platform to the first power device and a second conductive path is formed from the group charging platform to the second power device, and the plurality of magnetic connections is sufficient to hold the first and second power devices in place along the group charging platform.
