  • Publication number: 20120182744
    Abstract: A recessed LED ceiling light fixture kit for installation to a ceiling panel or plaster frame in residential homes or commercial buildings is disclosed. The kit includes an LED engine with at least one LED facing downward, an LED driver, and an annular shaped, finned heat sink that receives the LED driver therein and the LED underneath. The fixture includes a tubular-shaped can having an open bottom and a top engaging the heat sink. Detachable can retainer springs or threaded fasteners engage the can at its circumference, wherein the springs mount the can to the ceiling panel, or alternatively, the fasteners attach the can to the plaster frame. A trim ring is snapped onto the can at its open bottom, and an electrical junction box sits on top of the heat sink.

  • Patent number: 7722227
    Abstract: A recessed lighting fixture providing illumination from a light source comprising a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) placed within a cavity of a planar surface, such as a ceiling, wall, or shower. The fixture comprises a baffle integrated with a low profile heat sink that is used to draw heat out of the fixture and communicate that heat to a trim ring of the fixture for dissipation of the heat in the room so that higher intensity light sources can be used. Improved grounding of the recessed trim unit to the recessed housing is provided with combination support and grounding springs. One embodiment of the light source is fixed in position while a second embodiment is gimbal mounted for aiming the light produced by the fixture.
