Abstract
A lighting device assembly includes an optic assembly having a light source, a housing having a cavity in which the at least a portion of the optic assembly is received, the housing is configured to secure the lighting device assembly to a wall, a ceiling, or a surface, and a heat sink configured to couple the optic assembly to an opening of the housing that defines the cavity. The heat sink includes a hinged aiming mechanism configured to movably couple the optic assembly to the housing to allow the light source to move relative to the housing.
Claims16
A lighting device assembly, comprising:
- an optic assembly comprising a light source;
- a housing comprising a cavity in which the at least a portion of the optic assembly is received, wherein the housing is configured to secure the lighting device assembly to a wall, a ceiling, or a surface;
- a heat sink configured to couple the optic assembly to an opening of the housing that defines the cavity, wherein the heat sink comprises a hinged aiming mechanism configured to movably couple the optic assembly to the housing to allow the light source to move relative to the housing, wherein the hinged aiming mechanism of the heat sink comprises:
- a first bracket supporting a first movement relative to the housing;
- and
- a second bracket supporting a second movement relative to the housing, the first movement comprises a first rotational movement about a first axis, and the second movement comprises a second rotational movement about a second axis.
A lighting device assembly, comprising:
- an optic assembly comprising a light source;
- a housing comprising a cavity in which the at least a portion of the optic assembly is received, wherein the housing is configured to secure the lighting device assembly to a wall, a ceiling, or a surface;
- a heat sink configured to couple the optic assembly to an opening of the housing that defines the cavity, wherein the heat sink comprises a hinged aiming mechanism configured to movably couple the optic assembly to the housing to allow the light source to move relative to the housing, wherein the hinged aiming mechanism of the heat sink comprises:
- a first bracket supporting a first movement relative to the housing;
- and
- a second bracket supporting a second movement relative to the housing,
- wherein the second bracket comprises a collar to engage a groove located at or adjacent to the opening of the housing, at least a portion of the optic assembly is exposed through the opening, the collar is to rotate along the groove.
A lighting device assembly, comprising:
- an optic assembly comprising a light source;
- a housing comprising a cavity in which the at least a portion of the optic assembly is received, wherein the housing is configured to secure the lighting device assembly to a wall, a ceiling, or a surface;
- a heat sink configured to couple the optic assembly to an opening of the housing that defines the cavity, wherein the heat sink comprises a hinged aiming mechanism configured to movably couple the optic assembly to the housing to allow the light source to move relative to the housing, wherein the hinged aiming mechanism of the heat sink comprises:
- a first bracket supporting a first movement relative to the housing;
- and
- a second bracket supporting a second movement relative to the housing,
- wherein
- the first bracket comprises a middle portion and at least one side portion supporting the middle portion;
- the middle portion extends over the optics assembly;
- and
- the at least one side portion is rotatably coupled to the second bracket.
A lighting device assembly, comprising:
- an optic assembly comprising a light source;
- a housing comprising a cavity in which the at least a portion of the optic assembly is received, wherein the housing is configured to secure the lighting device assembly to a wall, a ceiling, or a surface;
- a heat sink configured to couple the optic assembly to an opening of the housing that defines the cavity, wherein the heat sink comprises a hinged aiming mechanism configured to movably couple the optic assembly to the housing to allow the light source to move relative to the housing, wherein the hinged aiming mechanism of the heat sink comprises:
- a first bracket supporting a first movement relative to the housing;
- and
- a second bracket supporting a second movement relative to the housing,
- wherein the first bracket transfers heat from the light source to the cavity of the housing by radiating heat from the light source toward the cavity of the housing;
- and
- the first bracket transfer heat from the light source to the second bracket by conduction.
