  • Modular socket
    Patent number: 11913628
    Abstract: A modular socket (106, 306) for removably receiving a light-emitting diode (“LED”) driver (124, 324) and coupling the LED driver to LED(s) (104) is described herein and may include: a housing (108, 308); a power input interface (110, 310) to receive a supply voltage; a power output interface (120, 320) electrically coupled with the power input interface within the housing; an LED control input interface (128, 328) that is electrically coupled with one or more LEDs; and one or more mechanical engagement and locking structures (134, 334). Mechanical engagement of the mechanical engagement and locking structures with corresponding mechanical engagement and locking structures of the LED driver may simultaneously effect electrical coupling between: the power output interface and a power input interface (122, 322) of the LED driver, and the LED control input interface and an LED output interface (126, 326) of the LED driver.
