  • Publication number: 20240049653
    Abstract: A solid-state emitter grow light assembly comprises a main housing, configured for providing secure attachment and positioning of one or more individual modular array strips. A plurality of emitter arrays are each configured for mounting to an individual modular array strip. Each of the plurality of emitter arrays including a plurality of solid-state emitters mounted on a printed circuit board. The solid-state emitters are user selectable to emit light of a desired color spectrum. A plurality of pushed pin fasteners secure each emitter array to a modular array strip and each modular array strip to said Main housing. A plurality of driver modules are coupled to and configured for energizing one or more of the solid State emitters.

  • Publication number: 20140292198
    Abstract: An illumination system which houses LEDs on Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) in a lightweight, metal or plastic housing that can be configured as a stand-alone interior lighting fixture or retrofitted to a common two, three, or four tube fluorescent drop in a ceiling (troffer) light fixture. The system can also be configured as an emergency/security/night light.

  • Publication number: 20130016510
    Abstract: An illumination module that can be retrofitted to a common cobra head and shoebox style street and parking lot pole mounted light housings. This module can reduce the energy requirements by as much as 85%. The module also eliminates the typical required heat sinks. A self contained insect repulsion module that is “insect-tuned” is provided. This repulsion module is set at a frequency that discourages any infestation. A back-up photocell module turns the light “OFF” when the ambient light is above a certain threshold if the primary photocell fails. A lens housing structure substantially reduces extraneous upward and side illumination. The module can be retrofitted using only two simple steps, taking only about ten minutes using only common hand tools.

  • Patent number: 4621024
    Abstract: A process for preparing a metal-coated hollow microsphere comprising the combination of steps of: (a) vigorously admixing a major quantity of hollow cenospheres/microspheres with a thermo-setting binder adhesive until the cenospheres are wet-out; (b) slowly adding metal flakes to the thus wet-out cenospheres of step (a) until the wet-out cenospheres are fully coated with the metal flakes; (c) binding the metal flakes to the said wet-out cenospheres by slowly increasing the temperature of the metal coated wet-out cenospheres from step (b), the temperature being raised up to about 350.degree. F.; and (d) the metal-coated cenospheres of step (c) are intermittently admixed in the absence of any further heating until dry. The dry product is ready for packaging.
