Downlight apparatus
A downlight apparatus is designed to be installed in a cavity of a ceiling. The downlight apparatus includes a base part, a major part and a connector. The base part has a shape to be fixed in the cavity of the ceiling. The base part has a base housing for defining a through hole and a light window. The major part includes a major housing, a light source and a driver circuit. The connector connects the major housing and the base housing. The connector provides multiple candidate positions for a user to configure to change a relative position of the base part and the major part so as to change an output light defined determined by the light window and the light source.
1. A downlight apparatus for being installed in a cavity, comprising:
a base part to be fixed in the cavity, the base part having a base housing for defining a through hole, and a light window;
a light source for emitting a light, wherein the light source comprises LED modules;
a major part comprising a major housing and wherein the light passes through the light window; and
a connector for connecting the major housing and the base housing, the connector providing multiple candidate positions along an extending direction of the through hole for a user to configure to change a vertical relative position of the base part and the major part so as to change an output light determined by the light window.
2. The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the connector comprises a groove disposed on the base part, a fastener disposed on the major part, the relative position of the fastener to the groove is adjustable when applying an external force.
3. The downlight apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the connector has an inverted U structure with a side bar with the groove for connecting to the fastener.
4. The downlight apparatus of claim 3 , wherein the track is built together with the major housing as a single unit.
5. The downlight apparatus of claim 2 , wherein the connector transmits heat of the major part to the base part.
6. The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , wherein an output beam angle of the output light is changed by adjusting the relative position.
7. The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , wherein adjustment of the relative position between the major part and the base part involves more than one dimension.
8. The downlight apparatus of claim 6 , wherein the track has two grooves for connecting to the fastener.
9. The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the connector comprises a first screw unit in the base part and a second screw unit in the major part, when the first screw unit is rotated with respect to the second screw unit, the relative position between the base part and the major part is adjusted.
10. The downlight apparatus of claim 1 , wherein the adjustment of the relative position between the major part and the base part changes an overall height of the downlight apparatus.
11. The downlight apparatus of claim 9 , wherein the overall height of the downlight apparatus is adjustable to fit different standard heights for different countries.
