Abstract

Lighting fixtures are provided. In one example implementation, the lighting fixture can include a housing portion and one or more modular lighting components mechanically coupled to the housing portion. Each modular lighting component can include a lighting assembly (e.g., an LED lighting assembly) and a heat sink portion. The one or more modular lighting components can be selectively removable from the housing portion to configure the lighting fixture for a plurality of different lighting configurations.

Claims (33)

1. A lighting fixture, comprising:

a housing portion;

a modular lighting component mechanically coupled to the housing portion at a sidewall of the housing portion, the modular lighting component comprising a lighting assembly and a heat sink portion, the lighting assembly comprising a plurality of LED devices and a plurality of lenses, each lens secured relative to one of the plurality of LED devices;

wherein the modular lighting component is selectively removable from the housing portion to configure the lighting fixture for a plurality of different lighting applications, and

wherein the housing portion comprises a plurality of cooling fins, at least one cooling fin of the plurality of cooling fins extending outwardly from the sidewall of the housing portion such that the at least one cooling fin is positioned between the housing portion and the modular lighting component.

2. The lighting fixture of claim 1 , wherein the housing portion is a central housing portion.

3. The lighting fixture of claim 2 , wherein the central housing portion houses one or more drivers.

4. The lighting fixture of claim 3 , further comprising:

a clamp bar securing the one or more drivers to the central housing portion.

5. The lighting fixture of claim 1 , wherein each heat sink portion comprises a plurality of cooling fins.

6. The lighting fixture of claim 1 , wherein the lighting fixture is configured as a pole mount fixture, wall mount fixture, flood light fixture, or pendant mount fixture.

7. The lighting fixture of claim 1 , wherein the modular lighting component comprises a wireless control module.

8. The lighting fixture of claim 1 wherein the modular lighting component comprises a laser assembly configured to emit laser light for use in aiming the lighting fixture.

9. A lighting fixture, comprising:

a housing portion; and

a modular lighting component mechanically coupled to the housing portion at a sidewall of the housing portion, the modular lighting component comprising a lighting assembly and a laser assembly, the lighting assembly comprising a plurality of LED devices, the laser assembly configured to emit laser light in a general direction of light emitted by the plurality of LED devices of the lighting assembly;

wherein the modular lighting component is selectively removable from the housing portion to configure the lighting fixture for a plurality of different lighting applications, and

wherein the housing portion comprises a plurality of cooling fins, at least one cooling fin of the plurality of cooling fins extending outwardly from the sidewall of the housing portion such that the at least one cooling fin is positioned between the housing portion and the modular lighting component.

10. The lighting fixture of claim 9 , wherein the lighting fixture is a flood light.

11. The lighting fixture of claim 9 , wherein the laser light facilitates aiming of the lighting fixture.

12. The lighting fixture of claim 9 , wherein the laser assembly is configured to be activated based at least in part on a signal received via a wireless network.

13. The lighting fixture of claim 9 , further comprising:

an accelerometer configured to provide a signal indicative of an aiming angle of the lighting fixture.

14. The lighting fixture of claim 13 , wherein the lighting fixture is configured to communicate the signal indicative of the aiming angle over a wireless network.

15. The lighting fixture of claim 13 , wherein the lighting fixture is configured to illuminate the plurality of LED devices based at least in part on the signal indicative of the aiming angle.

16. The lighting fixture of claim 15 , wherein the lighting fixture is configured to illuminate the plurality of LED devices when the signal indicative of the aiming angle indicates that the lighting fixture is aimed at a preset aiming angle.

17. A lighting fixture, comprising:

a central housing portion;

a first lighting component mechanically coupled to the central housing portion at a first sidewall of the central housing portion, the first lighting component comprising a lighting assembly and a heat sink portion, the lighting assembly comprising a plurality of LED devices and a plurality of lenses, each lens secured relative to one of the plurality of LED devices;

a second lighting component mechanically coupled to the central housing portion at a second sidewall of the central housing portion, the second lighting component comprising a lighting assembly and a heat sink portion, the lighting assembly comprising a plurality of LED devices and a plurality of lenses, each lens secured relative to one of the plurality of LED devices;

wherein the first lighting component and the second lighting component are disposed relative to the central housing portion such that the first lighting component and the second lighting component mirror one another;

wherein at least one of the first lighting component and the second lighting component is removable relative to the central housing portion, and

wherein the central housing portion comprises a plurality of cooling fins, at least one of the plurality of cooling fins extending outwardly from the first sidewall of the housing portion such that the at least one cooling fin is positioned between the central housing portion and the first lighting component.
