  • Patent number: 6068388
    Abstract: A dual reflector lighting system (10) having a housing, a ballast and a lamp socket (16) connected to receive a gaseous discharge or high intensity discharge (HID) lamp (14). An outer reflector (21) is mounted to the housing to reflect a portion of light from the lamp (14). An inner or auxiliary reflector (22) is mounted coaxially with the lamp (14) to reflect a substantial amount of light from the lamp (14) downwardly. The auxiliary reflector (22) is preferably adjustable relative to the lamp (14). The invention also covers a dual reflector assembly, including an outer reflector (21) and inner reflector (22), adjustable relative to each other which is adapted to be mounted to a HID fixture. The invention also covers an auxiliary reflector (22) having a predetermined size and shape adapted to fit within an outer reflector (21) of a HID fixture and preferably includes facilities for adjusting the auxiliary reflector (22) relative to the outer reflector (21).
