Lighting system
First Claim
1. A lighting system, comprising:
- a housing;
a segmented reflector arranged atop the housing, the reflector having;
a central axis;
a plurality of reflecting surfaces, the plurality of reflecting surfaces having at least one optical axis, each of the reflecting surfaces further including a linearly projected cross-section along a respective linear axis oriented generally orthogonally with respect to the central axis, the linearly projected cross-section of the reflecting surfaces comprising a substantially conic shape, anda base side and an opposing, spaced-apart top side, the top side of the reflector being smaller in size than the base side, the base side of the reflector being oriented toward the housing and the top side being oriented away from the housing; and
a plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) positioned in a line generally parallel to the linearly projected cross-section of the plurality of reflecting surfaces, the LEDs being further positioned proximate the top side of the reflector and angled toward the housing, the LEDs being oriented relative to an associated reflecting surface such that a central light-emitting axis of the plurality of LEDs is angled relative to the at least one optical axis of the associated reflecting surface at about 45°
,the reflecting surfaces redirecting and collimating a light output of the plurality of LEDs at an angle of about 45°
with respect to the central light emitting axis of the plurality of LEDs.

Abstract
A lighting system having a reflector with a plurality of reflecting surfaces. The plurality of reflecting surfaces have at least one optical axis, and the reflecting surfaces further include a linearly projected cross-section along a respective linear axis. A plurality of light emitting diodes (LEDs) are positioned in a line generally parallel to the linearly projected cross-section of the plurality of reflecting surfaces. The LEDs are oriented relative to an associated reflecting surface such that a central light-emitting axis of the plurality of LEDs is angled relative to the at least one optical axis of the associated reflecting surface at about 45°. The reflecting surfaces redirect and collimate a light output of the plurality of LEDs at an angle of about 45° with respect to the central light emitting axis of the plurality of LEDs.
