Abstract
An illumination system having a plurality of housings pivotably or rotatably secured to each other, and capable of directing light in different directions when the plurality of housing are reconfigured relative to each other.
Claims20
An illumination system comprising:
- a first housing (i) having a first side wall, a second side wall, a rear wall, and a pair of end walls interconnecting the first side wall, the second side wall, and the rear wall, and (ii) defining a first cavity, each of the end walls including an arm extending therefrom;
- at least one electrical component housed at least partially within the first cavity;
- a second housing (i) pivotably secured to the first housing via the arms, and (ii) defining a second cavity;
- and
- an elongated illumination strip (i) housed within the second cavity, (ii) in communication with the at least one electrical component, and (iii) operable to emit visible radiation in at least one direction.

A method of manufacturing an illumination system, the method comprising the steps of:
- forming a first housing (i) having a first side wall, a second side wall, a rear wall, and a pair of end walls interconnecting the first side wall, the second side wall, and the rear wall, and (ii) defining a first cavity, each of the end walls including an arm extending therefrom;
- securing at least one electrical component at least partially within the first cavity;
- rotatably securing a second housing to the first housing via the arms, the second housing defining a second cavity;
- and
- securing an elongated illumination strip within the second cavity, the illumination strip (i) in communication with the at least one electrical component, and (ii) operable to emit visible radiation in at least one direction.
