Abstract
A lighting assembly for improving the performance of undercabinet and streamlined lighting includes a LED module onto which is mounted a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs). The LEDs serve as the light source for generating a light pattern. An optical assembly focuses and disperses the LED output to a desired light contour. The lighting assembly further includes a mounting base for attaching the LED module to an associated surface, such as the underside of a cabinet. A battery source is optionally enclosed in the module for providing primary or secondary power to the lighting assembly. In a preferred embodiment, the battery source is a rechargeable battery that can be recharged by means of an AC adapter that connects to the lighting assembly.
Claims22
A lighting assembly comprising:
- a mounting base;
- an LED module detachably mounted on the mounting base;
- a first plurality of LEDs mounted on the module forming at least one array of LEDs, the LEDs serving as a light source;
- and
- an optical assembly operatively associated with the LED module for focusing and dispersing light from the LEDs passing through said optical assembly.
A method for forming a lighting assembly comprising the steps of:
- providing a plurality of LEDs;
- mountings said LEDs on an LED module;
- providing an optical assembly;
- mounting said optical assembly on said LED module such that said optical assembly focuses and disperses light from the LEDs passing through said optical assembly;
- providing an electrical power source;
- and
- connecting said electrical power source to said LED module such that power is provided to said LEDs.
A lighting assembly comprising:
- a mounting base;
- an LED module;
- a first plurality of high intensity white LEDs mounted on the module forming at least one array of LEDs, the LEDs generating a light beam and serving as a light source;
- an optical assembly operatively associated with the LED module for focusing and dispersing the light beam passing through said optical assembly;
- a connector for attaching said mounting base to an associated structure;
- a fixing apparatus disposed on a surface of the module for attaching the module to a mounting surface;
- and
- a battery system for providing power to the LEDs.
