Luminaire comprising adjustable light modules
First Claim
1. A luminaire for providing general illumination, comprising:
- a housing defining a spatial profile of the luminaire, said housing comprising an output portion; and
one or more light modules pivotally coupled within said housing, each of said one or more light modules comprising a light-emitting element, and a respective heat sink and output optics therefor;
wherein said one or more light modules are configured to pivot within said housing to thereby adjust a directionality of the light emitted therefrom through said output portion while substantially maintaining the spatial profile of the luminaire.

Abstract
The invention provides a general illumination luminaire comprising one or more adjustable light modules. In particular, the luminaire generally comprises one or more light modules, each one of which comprising one or more light-emitting elements, and optionally comprising a heat sink in thermal contact therewith and output optics for managing light output from the one or more light emitting elements. In general, the light modules are adjustably coupled to the luminaire via a coupling structure that provides one or more adjustment mechanisms for adjusting the orientation of the light modules for adjusting an output directionality of the luminaire, while substantially maintaining the spatial profile of the luminaire.

13. A light module for use in a general illumination luminaire, the light module comprising:
-
a heat sink;
a light-emitting element; and
an output-optics attachment comprising an output optical element and an attachment element, said output-optics attachment being configured to engage said heat sink and said light-emitting element via said attachment element to maintain a thermal coupling between said light-emitting element and said heat sink, while positioning said optical element in optical alignment with an output of said light-emitting element. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16, 17)

18. A luminaire for providing general illumination, comprising:
-
a coupling structure comprising a base portion and a substantially longitudinal light-module coupling portion, said light-module coupling portion being pivotally coupled to said base portion to pivot about a longitudinal axis substantially parallel to said light module coupling portion; and
a linear array of light modules each comprising a light-emitting element and each being pivotally coupled along said light-module coupling portion to pivot about a respective transversal axis that is substantially perpendicular to said longitudinal axis;
wherein pivotal movement of each of said light modules provides for adjustment of directionality of the luminaire while substantially maintaining a spatial profile thereof. - View Dependent Claims (19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25)
