Patent number: 10260730Abstract: A mount for a light assembly in a luminaire has a base section and mounting arms upstanding from the base section. Each mounting arm has an upward length and a width and has a lower portion and an upper portion. Mounting pads for light sources are unitary with or attached to the mounting arm upper portions and have an upward length and a width. The width of the mounting pads extends in a direction oblique to the width of the mounting arm lower portions. Preferably, the length of the mounting pads extends in a direction oblique to the length of the mounting arm lower portions. Light sources mounted on the mounting pads may emit beams of light directed obliquely away from each other and obliquely towards the base.Type: GrantFiled: July 31, 2017Date of Patent: April 16, 2019Assignee: Spring City Electrical Mfg.
