LIGHTING DEVICES INCLUDING FORMED FLEXIBLE LIGHT ENGINES

摘要

Lighting devices, and methods of manufacturing the same, are provided. A lighting device includes a cover through which emitted light passes and a formed flexible light engine. The formed flexible light engine is placed within a housing, or serves as the housing itself. An interface couples to cover to the housing or the formed flexible light engine. The formed flexible light engine includes a flexible substrate and a plurality of solid state light sources located thereon. The plurality of solid state light sources are configured to emit light through the cover. The formed light engine has a defined shape created during the forming process. This enables placement on the housing within the lighting device, or contributes to the overall shape of the lighting device.
