Abstract
A module for forming a modular luminaire, in cooperation with the second module, has a housing with a cavity. The housing is designed to be mounted within a luminaire frame or to one end of a luminaire shell. The module includes at least one bulb holder that is supported by the housing and multiple rotatably adjustable reflector holders, also supported by the housing. The holders are each designed to engage one end of an elongated reflector so as to support it. The module also includes at least one geared reflector adjuster that allows the rotational position of at least one of the reflector holders to be adjusted.
Claims17
A luminaire assembly having a luminaire frame and at least one module mounted in the frame, the luminaire frame having a pair of spaced apart ends and an opening for permitting a beam of light to be emitted from the frame, said module comprising:
- a housing having an inner wall and an outer wall with a cavity defined therebetween, said outer wall of said housing being configured for mounting to one of the ends of the luminaire frame;
- at least one bulb holder supported by said housing;
- a plurality of rotatably adjustable reflector holders supported by said housing, said holders each being configured to engage an end of an elongated reflector;
- and
- at least one geared reflector adjustor for adjusting the rotational position of at least one of said plurality of reflector holders, said reflector adjustor being at least partially disposed in said cavity.
A luminaire assembly including a first and second module and a luminaire shell which extends therebetween, the luminaire shell having ends, said first module comprising:
- a housing having a cavity defined therein, said housing further having an elongated slot extended along a portion of the perimeter of said housing configured to engage an end of the luminaire shell;
- at least one bulb holder supported by said housing;
- a plurality of rotatably adjustable reflector holders supported by said housing, said holders each being configured to engage an end of an elongated reflector;
- and
- at least one geared reflector adjustor for adjusting the rotational position of at least one of said plurality of reflector holders, said reflector adjustor being at least partially disposed in said cavity.
A modular luminaire comprising:
- an elongated luminaire shell having a first end and a second end;
- a first module comprising:
- a housing having a cavity defined therein and an elongated slot extending alone a portion of the perimeter of said housing, said slot configured to engage one of said ends of said luminaire shell;
- at least one bulb holder supported by said housing;
- a plurality of rotatably adjustable reflector holders supported by said housing;
- and
- at least one geared reflector adjustor for adjusting the rotational position of at least one of said plurality of reflector holders, said reflector adjustor being at least partially disposed in said cavity;
- a second module comprising:
- a housing having an elongated slot extending, along a portion of the perimeter of said housing, said slot configured to engage one of said ends of said luminaire shell;
- at least one bulb holder supported by said housing;
- and
- a plurality of rotatably adjustable reflector holders supported by said housing;
- a plurality of elongated reflectors each having first ends and second ends;
- said first module being attached to said first end of said shell with said first end of said shell being disposed in said slot in said housing in said first module;
- said second module being attached to said second end of said shell with said second end of said shell being disposed in said slot in said housing in said second module;
- and
- said reflectors each having their first ends attached to one of said reflector holders on said first module and their second ends attached to one of said reflector holders on said second module;
- whereby a luminaire assembly is formed.
