Patent number: 12129987Abstract: A landscape lighting fixture utilizes a cylindrical bollard shroud member which houses an electrical light source, e.g. an LED module. The shroud number extends upwardly from an elongated riser element. A vertically adjustable path hat support system affixed to a path hat circumscribes the shroud member, thereby allowing the path hat to be vertically adjustable in relation to the shroud member. The path hat and path hat support system can also be vertically adjustable along the riser element, without an attached shroud member. In either case, the adjustability of the path hat allows the lighting fixture to provide a wider or narrower light beam angle from the light source without adjusting the illumination from the light source.Type: GrantFiled: June 20, 2024Date of Patent: October 29, 2024Assignee: COASTAL SOURCE, LLCInventors: Franco L D'Ascanio, Sean P Snowden, Harold Zimmermann

Light from the lighting source is projected to different predetermined areas by adjusting positions of the optical element relative to the lighting source. In each of the positions of the optical element, the light from the lighting source is modulated by a corresponding portion of the optical element to be projected to a corresponding predetermined area.Type: GrantFiled: June 15, 2010Date of Patent: December 4, 2012Assignee: Foxsemicon Integrated Technology, Inc.Inventors: Yen-Chun Wang, An-Chi Wei, Hong-Bin Yang, Ming-Young Shiao, Chih-Ming Lai

Publication number: 20120275005Abstract: A modular approach to a pattern illumination system for selective excitation of microparticles is used. A dual-channel pattern module having two single-channel pattern modules are oriented at a non-zero offset angle to each other. In this arrangement, a galvo-scanner based phase-shifting module is shared between the two channels. A set of tilt mirrors are used to direct the beams from the pattern modules onto the target plane. Additional layers of pattern modules can be added to accommodate any desirable number of additional channels. The additional layer(s) may be rotationally off-set from the other layer(s) by an angular amount to simplify the layout of optical components. A remote light source module may be connected to the pattern modules through optical fiber.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 27, 2012Publication date: November 1, 2012Applicant: LightSpeed Genomics, Inc.Inventor: Chun-Sheu Lee

Patent number: 8277086Abstract: A reflector has a one-piece sheet-metal body having an anodized front face and unitarily formed with a central annular part lying generally in a plane and having an inner periphery generally centered on an axis and adapted to accommodate a light source and an outer periphery. A plurality of flat fingers project from the outer periphery, extend at an acute angle to the plane, have outer ends, and each have a pair of generally parallel side edges. Each edge of each finger is closely juxtaposed with the edge of the adjacent finger and the fingers form with the annular part a concave shape.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2010Date of Patent: October 2, 2012Assignee: Alux Luxar GmbH & Co. KGInventor: Dietrich Heitmann

Patent number: 8235554Abstract: Provided is a light fixture having a first elongate body defining a mounting surface. A light module is disposed adjacent the mounting surface and includes a module body and a plurality of light emitting devices disposed on the mounting body. The light emitting device defines an emitting axis about which light is emitted. The fixture further includes a first reflector member and a second reflector member disposed on opposed sides of the emitting axis for reflecting light emanated by the light emitting devices. The first reflector member and the second reflector member are pivotable to vary the angle at which light is emitted from the light fixture.Type: GrantFiled: October 16, 2009Date of Patent: August 7, 2012Assignee: Intense Lighting, LLCInventor: Thomas F.
