Obstruction lighting system

摘要

An obstruction lighting system includes a disc having a generally planar surface. A plurality of light emitting diodes are mounted to the planar surface of the disc, a central light emitting axis of the light emitting diodes being oriented generally perpendicularly away from the planar surface. A reflector is coupled to the disc, the reflector having an outer surface in the shape of a rotated conic section, the reflector further including a projecting portion. The outer surface of the reflector has an optical axis generally perpendicular to the central light emitting axis of the light emitting diodes. Furthermore, the projecting portion of the reflector blocks light emissions from the light emitting diodes in an upwardly direction from the obstruction lighting system. The disc and a lens retainer may be configured to block light emitted by the light emitting diodes from traveling in a downwardly direction from the obstruction lighting system.

1. An obstruction lighting system, comprising:
a printed wiring board having a generally planar surface; a plurality of light emitting diodes mounted to the planar surface of the printed wiring board, a central light emitting axis of the light emitting diodes being oriented generally perpendicularly away from the planar surface; a reflector coupled to the printed wiring board, the reflector having a first side, a second, opposing side, and an outer surface extending between the first and second sides, the outer surface having the shape of a rotated conic section, the first side of the reflector facing toward the printed wiring board and the second side of the reflector facing away from the printed wiring board, the outer surface of the reflector having an optical axis generally perpendicular to the central light emitting axis of the light emitting diodes; and an auxiliary lighting assembly proximate the second side of the reflector, the auxiliary lighting assembly being configured with an infrared light source such that at least a portion of the infrared light emitted from the obstruction lighting system is generally perpendicular to the printed wiring board.
