Abstract

A luminaire is provided including a housing and at least one peripheral compartment defined in the housing that is configured to receive a lighting element. A central compartment is defined in the housing and disposed laterally inwardly of the at least one peripheral compartment. The central compartment is configured to receive control and power components for the lighting element. At least one lens is disposed over the at least one peripheral compartment such that the central compartment is accessible when the luminaire is installed on a support surface without a need to remove the at least one lens.

Claims (20)

1. A luminaire, comprising:

a housing adapted for installation to a support surface;

at least one peripheral compartment defined in the housing and configured to receive a lighting element;

a central compartment defined in the housing and disposed laterally inwardly of the at least one peripheral compartment, the central compartment being configured to receive control or power components for the lighting element;

at least one lens disposed over the at least one peripheral compartment;

a wiring harness extending between the central compartment and externally of the housing, the wiring harness comprising:

at least one wire; and

a resilient sealing member over-molded onto a lengthwise portion of the at least one wire,

wherein the resilient sealing member of the wiring harness defines a generally elongate seal body having first and second oppositely disposed free ends and an outer surface, the first free end extending through a passage in the housing providing communication with the central compartment, the opposite second free end extending externally of the housing, and the outer surface sealingly engaging the passage, and

wherein the central compartment is accessible when the luminaire is installed on the support surface without a need to remove the at least one lens.

2. The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the lighting element or the at least one lens is configured to vary light characteristics emanating from different portions of the luminaire.

3. The luminaire of claim 2 , wherein the at least one lens comprises a single lens structure having at least two lens portions configured to produce different light characteristics with light passing through the respective lens portions from the lighting element disposed adjacent the respective lens portions.

4. The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the at least one peripheral compartment comprises at least two peripheral compartments, each supporting a separate lighting element.

5. The luminaire of claim 4 , wherein the at least one lens comprises at least two lenses, wherein each lens is disposed over a respective one of the at least two peripheral compartments.

6. The luminaire of claim 1 , further comprising at least two lighting elements and at least two peripheral compartments defined in the housing, wherein each lighting element is disposed in a respective one of the at least two peripheral compartments.

7. The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the lighting element comprises a light emitting diode (LED).

8. The luminaire of claim 1 , wherein the resilient sealing member comprises at least one raised circumferential ridge extending outwardly from the outer surface and disposed adjacent the first end.

9. The luminaire of claim 8 , wherein the resilient sealing member further comprises a radially outwardly extending flange disposed adjacent the first end.

10. The luminaire of claim 8 , wherein the wiring harness further comprises at least one spacing member encapsulated within the over-molded resilient member, the spacing member being configured to locate and support the at least one wire prior to over-molding of the resilient member.

11. The luminaire of claim 1 , further comprising a removable panel configured to be secured to the housing for covering the central compartment.
