| 20110149568 | LUMINAIRE - A general illumination luminaire or lamp includes high efficacy and long life light emitting diodes (LEDs) as part of a light module. The LEDs are mounted on a strip that is mounted on a frame to position the LEDs in a circular, or at least round, path for providing increased light distribution and heat dissipation. The frame may take various forms to direct the light to be diffused and dispersed as is desired for a general illumination source. Diffusion layers or coatings are used to condition the light for desired distributed reflective characteristics. The luminaire uses electronics to condition and control the electricity provided to the LEDs from the power source, such as batteries. | 06-23-2011 |
