First Claim
Patent Images
1. A lighting system for illuminating a sign, the system comprising:
- a plurality of electrically interconnected modules each including;
a support,circuitry on the support,at least two light emitting diodes (“
LEDs”
) electrically connected to the circuitry, a first LED on a first surface of the support and facing in a first direction to emit light toward the first direction and a second LED on a second surface of the support and facing in a second direction, which is opposite the first direction, to emit light in a second general direction,a housing over the at least one support for covering the circuitry, andat least one electrical conductor electrically connecting the modules and a rigid spine connected with the modules, the spine being more rigid than the at least one electrical conductor for fixing the modules in relation to one another.

Abstract
A lighting system generally includes a plurality of electrically interconnected modules. Each module includes a support, circuitry on the support, at least two light emitting diodes (“LEDs”) on the support and electrically connected to the circuitry, and a housing over the support for covering the circuitry. A first LED on a first surface of the support emits light in a first general direction and a second LED mounted on a second surface of the support emits light in a second general direction, which is opposite the first general direction.

19. A lighting system for illuminating a sign, the system comprising:
-
a plurality of electrically interconnected modules each including; a support; circuitry on the support; at least two light emitting diodes (“
LEDs”
) on the support and electrically connected to the circuitry, a first LED on a first surface of the support and emitting light in a first general direction and a second LED mounted on a second, opposite, surface of the support and emitting light in a second general direction, which is opposite the first direction;a housing over the support for covering the circuitry; and a rigid tubular member receiving the housing and having a translucent section for allowing light from the LEDs to escape the tubular member. - View Dependent Claims (20)
