Illumination system and lamp utilizing directionalized LEDs

摘要

An LED lamp specially adapted for use in combination with a concave reflector and to replace the incandescent light sources normally used. The lamp includes two or more light emitting diodes or light emitting diode arrays, each with a specified angle of light radiation, mounted substantially perpendicular to the lamp support and spaced symmetrically around the longitudinal axis of the said lamp support to form a compact consolidated light radiation area with a specified length, width, and height. All of the light radiates outward in a 360 degree radial pattern around and horizontal to the longitudinal axis of the said lamp support and at a specified angle of radiation vertical to the longitudinal axis of the said lamp support. Substantially all of the light emitted impinges on, and is redirected by, the reflector to project a high intensity beam of light with all light rays radiating at the same angle.

1. An illumination system for projecting a beam of light, comprising:
a concave reflector configured to be substantially symmetrical about a longitudinal axis; and an LED lamp including two or more light emitting diodes or light emitting diode arrays, each with a specified angle of light radiation directionalized outward substantially perpendicular to, and spaced substantially symmetrically around, the longitudinal axis of the concave reflector; wherein a substantial portion of the light emitted by the lamp impinges on, and is redirected by, the reflector to project a high intensity beam of light with all light rays radiating at substantially the same angle.
