Abstract

A lighting device including a light emitting diode (LED) luminaire assembly and a bracket body. The bracket body includes at least one arm configured to support the LED luminaire assembly, and a cavity configured to receive a power supply.

Claims (27)

1. A lighting device, comprising:

at least one lighting module, wherein the at least one lighting module comprises:

a heatsink housing, and

a light emitting diode (LED) module comprising a plurality of LEDs;

a power supply disposed within a power supply casing, wherein the power supply is for providing power to one or more of the plurality of LEDs, and the power supply casing comprises structure for cooling the power supply; and

a bracket arm that connects to the at least one lighting module and that also connects to the power supply casing.

2. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one lighting module is thermally insulated from the power supply.

3. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the heatsink housing comprises a plurality of fins that face towards the power supply, and the LEDs of the at least one lighting module face away from the power supply.

4. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein:

the at least one lighting module further comprises a joiner; and

the bracket arm is configured to moveably connect to the at least one lighting module via the joiner.

5. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the lighting device is configured for installation as at least one of the following: overhead illumination by ceiling illumination or wide area floodlighting.

6. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the bracket arm is further configured to enclose circuitry for providing power to the one or more of the plurality of LEDs from the power supply.

7. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the power supply comprises at least one DC power supply.

8. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the structure for comprising the power supply comprises a plurality of fins disposed on the power supply casing.

9. The lighting device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one lighting module comprises one or more modular lens matrices.

10. The lighting device of claim 3 , wherein the heatsink housing further comprises an endcap that is secured to the heatsink housing and which includes at least one opening that is an intake for convectional cooling air into the heatsink housing which drives heat away from the fins of the heatsink housing.

11. The lighting device of claim 4 , wherein the lighting device comprises a plurality of lighting modules that are connected to each other via the joiner.

12. The lighting device of claim 4 , wherein the joiner is configured to control angular positioning of the at least one lighting module.

13. The lighting device of claim 4 , wherein the at least one lighting module further comprises a circuit board and driver circuitry for driving the plurality of LEDs in communication with the circuit board.

14. The lighting device of claim 7 , wherein the DC power supply comprises a DC-DC converter for converting incoming voltage from up to about 390 V to about 12 V DC operating voltage.

15. The lighting device of claim 9 , wherein each of the one or more modular lens matrices comprises an array of lenses arranged in at least one of the following arrangements: a 1×2 matrix, a 1×3 matrix, a 1×4 matrix, a 2×2 matrix, a 2×3 matrix, a 3×3 matrix, a 3×4 matrix, or a 4×4 matrix.

16. The lighting device of claim 13 , wherein:

the at least one lighting module comprises a plurality of parallel strings of LEDs; and

the driver circuitry is configured to provide a constant current to the at least one lighting module so that voltage delivered to each string of LEDs is automatically adjusted if any LED in the string fails.

17. The lighting device of claim 13 , wherein the driver circuitry further comprises feedback circuitry for balancing power input to each of a plurality of LED strings included in the at least one lighting module.

18. The lighting device of claim 13 , wherein the driver circuitry further comprises pulse width modulation circuitry configured to enable dimming of the plurality of LEDs by varying pulse width modulation.
