Patent number: 10578281Abstract: An illumination device (e.g., an electric candle, etc.) generally includes a housing, a light source, and color element. The color element is positioned over at least part of the light source for creating a color effect in the electric candle when the light source transmits light through the color element. The illumination device may also include a pendulum supporting the light source, and a support member configured to support pivotal movement of the pendulum and light source relative to the housing.Type: GrantFiled: August 17, 2018Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Inventor: Haisong Dong

Patent number: 10578263Abstract: The present invention discloses an artificial candle lamp, including an artificial flame hood and a light-emitting component which emits light in the flame hood. The light-emitting component is disposed on an upper bracket; a lower bracket is disposed below the upper bracket; an elastic component is disposed between the upper bracket and the lower bracket; an inductance solenoid coil is disposed in the middle of the lower bracket; and a ferromagnet which extends into the inductance solenoid coil is disposed at a lower part of the upper bracket. In the technical solution, the elastic component is used to buffer the flicker generated by an electromagnetic force to form a random and gradually-attenuated flicker process, thereby effectively enhancing a simulation effect of flame flicker of the artificial candle lamp and improving use experience of a user.Type: GrantFiled: September 27, 2018Date of Patent: March 3, 2020Inventor: Zhenfu Dong

Patent number: 10563851Abstract: Light emitting device (LED) circuit board layouts for low profile lighting fixtures are provided. In some embodiments, the lighting fixture can include a fixture housing. The lighting fixture can include one or more LED devices disposed on a circuit board. The lighting fixture can include one or more electronic components associated with at least one of a driver circuit or a filter circuit (e.g., as part of a flicker reducing circuit) disposed on the circuit board. The one or more LED devices are disposed on a first portion of the circuit board and the electronic components are disposed on a second portion of the circuit board. The second portion of the circuit board can be spaced radially apart from a center point of the circuit board relative to the first portion.Type: GrantFiled: November 20, 2017Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: Hubbell IncorporatedInventors: Luis Morales, Thomas Warren Weeks, Jr.

Patent number: 10563856Abstract: A heat dissipation structure (2) for a lighting device (1) is provided. The heat dissipation structure comprises at least two separate heat sinks (20, 10) for a light source (3) and a driver (7) for the light source, respectively. Each heat sink comprises fins (11, 21, 22) and a wall arrangement (15, 25). The at least two separate heat sinks are disposed along an axial direction of the lighting device. The fins of the at least two separate heat sinks are enclosed by the wall arrangements to form a chimney structure (30) arranged along (such as substantially parallel with) the axial direction of the lighting device. Further, the chimney structure comprises at least two sub-chimney structures (31, 32) arranged fluidly in parallel. The sub-chimney structures provide (accelerate) two air flows in parallel within the chimney structure, whereby cool air flows through the two sub-chimney structures simultaneously, which reduces heat concatenation.Type: GrantFiled: June 19, 2018Date of Patent: February 18, 2020Assignee: SIGNIFY HOLDING B.V.Inventors: Jian Xue, Chengyong Lei
