Abstract
Apparatus and systems for providing environmental lighting are disclosed. An environmental lighting assembly may include a structural element, which may be a tubular J-shaped element or other shape or structure, as well as an LED lighting engine assembly with a removable locking assembly for generating output light to streets, the ground, trees, or other surfaces, objects, or structures. A projection element may be positioned relative to the output light from the LEDs to generate patterns, images, or other controlled light output.
Claims20
A lighting apparatus, comprising:
- a structural element;
- a mounting flange element coupled to the structural element;
- and
- a light emitting diode (LED) light engine disposed at least partially within a cavity formed in the structural element;
- wherein the LED light engine is coupled to the structural element using a removable locking mechanism including a set-screw, a light fixture body, a threaded adjustment element, and a contact element.
A lighting apparatus, comprising:
- a structural element;
- a light emitting diode (LED) light engine disposed at least partially within a cavity formed in the structural element;
- and
- wherein the LED light engine is coupled to the structural element using a removable locking mechanism including a set-screw, a light fixture body, a threaded adjustment element, and a contact element;
- and
- wherein the structural element is a tubular element having a substantially constant cross-sectional area and the cavity formed in the structural element is a hollow center of the tubular element.
A lighting apparatus, comprising:
- a structural element;
- and
- a light emitting diode (LED) light engine disposed at least partially within a cavity formed in the structural element;
- wherein the LED light engine is coupled to the structural element using a removable locking mechanism, the locking mechanism including a light fixture body, a contact element, and a threaded adjustment element including a threaded cylinder configured to move within a threaded channel of the light fixture body to position the contact element against the light fixture body;
- and wherein the light fixture body includes a shaped cavity including a gap for allowing the contact element to apply contact pressure to the light fixture body.
