Lighting system
View Patent ↗A modular lighting system that includes at one cylindrical luminaire that includes a power contact on at least one end that is contacted by a connector from which pins extend to transfer power. The lighting system can be mounted on a ceiling, wall or both at the same time with the luminaire being rotatable and the system being scalable.
1. A lighting system, comprising:
at least one cylindrical luminaire having a housing that is delimited at a first end and a second end thereof, the first end of the housing having a recessed opening and the second end having a recessed opening, an electrical contact surface being arranged within the recessed opening of at least one of the first end of the housing and the second end of the housing; and
at least one connector having at least one recessed opening in which electrical projections extend therefrom, the electrical projections being configured to interact with and extend into the electrical contact surface to both transfer power and secure the luminaire to a surface with the at least one of the first end and the second end of the housing extending within the recessed opening of the at least one connector.
2. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the electrical projections are spring pins.
3. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one connector includes a first connector and a second connector.
4. The lighting system of claim 3 , wherein the at least one luminaire arranged between the first connector and the second connector with the first end of the at least one cylindrical luminaire arranged within the recessed opening of the first connector and the second end of the at least one cylindrical luminaire arranged within the recessed opening of the second connector.
5. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the electrical contact surface is located at the first end and at the second end of the at least one luminaire.
6. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the electrical contact surface is a printed circuit board.
7. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the electrical contact surface is arranged within the recessed opening of the first end of the housing and a second electrical contact is arranged within the recessed opening of the second end of the housing.
8. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one cylindrical luminaire is rotatable with respect to the at least one connector.
9. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the at least one cylindrical luminaire includes a housing that has a panel that permits light to transfer therethrough.
10. The lighting system of claim 8 , wherein the at least one luminaire includes a plurality of light sources arranged within the housing.
11. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the housing is delimited between a first end and a second end with a first recess extending from the first end toward the second end and a second recess extending at the second end towards the first end.
12. The lighting system of claim 1 , wherein the recessed opening includes a projection extending therein, which, in an assembled state with the at least one cylindrical opening interacts with and is arranged within the recessed opening of one of the first end and the second end of the housing.
