SOLID STATE LUMINAIRE HAVING PRECISE AIMING AND THERMAL CONTROL

摘要

A luminaire for re-use, a retro-fit device, or mechanism, that are designed to both fit into an existing luminaire while also making efficient use of LEDs or other solid state light elements is provided. Thermal elements are provided that act to remove heat generated by light elements. A housing is provided that may be configured to receive LEDs, or other optical elements, that are aimed to provide light in a desired direction through mounting to a facet or mounting surface, and have effective thermal environment control through one or more fins mounted to the side of the facet opposite the light element. Luminaires are provided for both original designs that utilize solid state light elements, and retrofit assemblies designed to convert an existing luminaire (that uses a traditional light source or sources) into a luminaire that uses solid state light elements.
