  • Publication number: 20200355327
    Abstract: A kit for retrofitting an existing high intensity discharge fixture so that it operates with one or more LED bulbs. The LED kit includes a bypass ballast for supplying current to an LED replacement bulb; an LED bulb, preferably set at an angle to aim the distribution of light; a heat sink for controlling the heat from the LED bulb; a dimmer unit, for adjusting the light intensity of the LED bulb; a sensor linked to the dimmer unit or controller, to adjust the intensity of the LED bulb based on a measured input; a controller configured for controlling the dimmer and for communicating to separate devices, such as a computer or other mobile device, via a router and a wireless transceiver Internet via WIFI or a cellular connection. In a preferred embodiment the kit includes one or more lenses for even distribution of light from the LED bulb.

  • Patent number: 9874325
    Abstract: A configurable LED overhead light with a selection of lenses. The lenses are selected for the pattern of light, distance and shape of the desired illumination, of a particular installation. By varying the lens shapes and surface textures, asymmetric patterns can be achieved, and non-LED fixtures can be replaced with LED fixtures that optimize the light distribution to a particular installation site.

  • Patent number: 9523468
    Abstract: An LED lighting fixture with a heat sink, LED arrays on angled facets, a reflector dish, and a diffuser lens are disclosed. The LED arrays are mounted at an angle on sloped facets, and the reflector intercepts a portion of light from the LED arrays, and redirects the intercepted light downward, resulting in a focused and collumnated light beam. Very little light is allowed to be projected upward above the light fixture, and less light is dispersed to the side.

  • Patent number: 9101027
    Abstract: Disclosed is a kit for converting an existing high discharge light unit to an LED based light unit, with the option of including a networked capability among a group of LED light units. The kit includes a drop-in component mounting plate on which are mounted an LED light source, sensors including a thermal sensor, a control unit, a DC power supply, a heat sink, and a dimmer unit. A wired or wireless transceiver allows the LED light units to operate as a network, with two way flow of information from the LED light units to a control unit.

  • Patent number: 7061639
    Abstract: A device and method of scanning a job on a document-processing device when a print path is not available. The method includes initiating a job and determining that a printer job channel is not available. The method further includes scanning the job and spooling the job to a mass storage device. The method also includes storing the job in the mass storage device until the printer job channel becomes available.
