Abstract
A plurality of compact light emitting assemblies is mounted on a frame configured as a heat sink that provides a structural platform and a thermal management component. The frame further ensures proper alignment of the light emitting devices to aim the individual light emitting assemblies in a direction that provides a predetermined overlap of the individual light beams resulting in a uniform, high brightness pattern on a target surface. The source of current connected to the light emitting devices may also be mounted on the frame. The compact light emitting module thus provided is readily adaptable to a variety of compact, high performance lighting product configurations.
Claims26
A light emitting module, comprising:
- a frame configured as a heat sink having first and second opposite sides, and a forward axis normal to the first side thereof;
- and
- an array of a plurality N of light emitting assemblies connected to a source of current, wherein each light emitting assembly (LEA) is aligned at an optical axis and mounted on the first side of the frame configured as a heat sink such that the optical axes of each LEA diverge from one another and are disposed at a non-zero first predetermined angle relative to the forward axis.
