Definitions

  • the present invention generally relates to lighting devices, and especially relates to a lighting device integrating a sensor assembly whose direction could be easily and conveniently adjusted.
  • a sensor usually has a specific sensing direction and a specific coverage. As such, the sensor has to be manually adjusted to aim at the desired direction and coverage or some automatic adjustment means is required before the sensor is put to use. Therefore, the sensor is usually mounted on some pivot and could be adjusted by some lever.
  • the sensor becomes bulky and therefore cannot be integrated with lighting devices of smaller dimensions such as fluorescent light tubes. The lighting devices as such cannot attain the energy saving capability provided by the sensors.
  • the lighting device contains an upper casing, a circuit board, a sensor assembly, a lower casing, and power adaptors.
  • a number of light emitting diodes (LEDs) are configured on the circuit board.
  • the upper and lower casings are joined to house the circuit board inside.
  • the power adaptors are configured at two ends of assembled upper and lower casings and the circuit board.
  • the sensor assembly contains a cylindrical casing threaded in a ring.
  • the sensor assembly is then rotatably housed in a spherical concave on the circuit board.
  • the sensor assembly's rotational angle could be easily adjusted to aim to cover any desired area.
  • the sensor assembly could have a smaller dimension and could be more flexibly applied to various lighting devices.
  • the power adaptors allow the lighting device to be installed to conventional sockets for fluorescent light tubes.
  • a lighting device in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention mainly contains an upper casing 1, a circuit board 2, a sensor assembly 3, a lower casing 4, and power adaptors 5.
  • a number of light emitting diodes (LEDs) 21 are configured on a major side of the circuit board 2.
  • the upper and lower casings 1 and 4 are joined together to form a space so that the circuit board 2 is housed inside.
  • Two ends of the upper and lower casings 1 and 4, along with two ends of the circuit board 2, are together embedded in the power adaptors 5, respectively
  • the sensor assembly 3 is configured between two adjacent LEDs 21.
  • the sensor assembly 3 contains, as shown in FIG 3 , a cylindrical casing 33 with a spherical top end and a ring 32.
  • the cylindrical casing 33 is threaded through the ring 32, jointly constituting a substantially spherical shape.
  • the sensor assembly 3 is then rotatably housed in a spherical concave 31 on the top side of the circuit board 2.
  • the power adaptors 5 have terminals that could be fit in conventional sockets for fluorescent light tubes.
  • the sensor assembly 3 therefore only contains the casing 33 and is fixedly positioned among the LEDs 21. In this case, the casing 33 cannot be turned to aim at different directions.
  • a sensor (not shown) housed inside the sensor assembly 3 could control the turning on and off of the lighting device. More significantly, the sensor assembly 3 (and therefore the sensor inside) could be easily turned to point to a desired coverage area. When a person or some object has entered the coverage area, the sensor inside the sensor assembly would detect the object and turn on the LEDs 21 of the lighting device. When the object leaves the coverage area, the sensor could turn off the LEDs 21 so as to save energy consumption.
  • the sensor assembly 3 is specifically configured into a spherical shape and therefore its rotational angle is not limited to that of the pivots and levers as in the prior arts. In addition, as no levers or pivots are used, the sensor assembly 3 could have a smaller dimension and could be more flexibly applied to various lighting devices.
  • FIGS. 4 and 5 provide another embodiment of the present invention. As illustrated, there are two circuit boards 2 (along with their respective upper and lower casings) contained in the lighting device so as to achieve enhanced brightness from the additional LEDs 21.
  • the sensor assembly 3 is integrated with a power adaptor 5 where the sensor assembly 3 is further protected by a cover (not numbered). The sensor assembly is able to turn on and off of the LEDs 21 of both circuit boards 2.
